SCRIPTURE

"And the Spirit bade me go with them, making no distinction. And these six brethren also accompanied me; and we entered into the man`s house:" — Acts 11:12 (ASV)

the spirit bade me go with them, nothing doubting.—The Greek verb has a special force, as it is the same verb used for “contended” in Acts 11:2. Peter, guided by the Spirit, raised no debate such as they were raising.
