Acts 8:21

So I responded to them with a word and said to them, “The God of heaven will give us success; therefore we His slaves will arise and build, but you have no portion, right, or remembrance in Jerusalem.”

For their heart was not prepared to remain with Him, Nor were they faithful in His covenant.

And they were both righteous in the sight of God, walking blamelessly in all the commandments and righteous requirements of the Lord.

And this word pleased the whole congregation, and they chose Stephen, a man full of faith and of the Holy Spirit, and Philip, Prochorus, Nicanor, Timon, Parmenas, and Nicolas, a proselyte from Antioch.

And these they stood before the apostles, and after praying, they laid their hands on them.
