Peter had been called before the church council in Jerusalem (Acts 11:1-2). They were alarmed that the apostle had abandoned his traditional Jewish belief … that God was offended if His people visited Gentiles in their homes (Acts 10:28). They felt that Peter's behaviour had dishonoured the Lord. So, he explained how it was all the Lord's idea, and he had only been obedient. The result of his preaching about Jesus was that the Holy Spirit filled them, just as He filled the disciples at Pentecost (Acts 2:4).
