In 1 Corinthians 12 Paul introduces his favorite metaphor for the church - the Body of Christ.
Acts 10 records the story of Peter's vision and the visit with Cornelius. Peter's vision changed not only his attitude, but the direction of the church forever. If Peter doesn't get this right, the Church doesn't grow beyond the Jewish believers of the day.

There's a LOT that happens in these chapters. By the end of chapter 5, there are over 5,000 men (plus women and children) who have come to Christ!
Jesus said "I will build my church". When He said that in Matthew 16, He was looking forward to the time the disciples would quickly learn to lead as Jesus intended.
In Acts 2, we take a look at the Day of Pentecost.
