What does the Bible say about the first Gentile church?

Answered in 1 source

The first Gentile church is described in Acts 11, where believers were first called Christians in Antioch.

In Acts 11, we see the establishment of the first Gentile church in Antioch, marking a significant expansion of God's grace beyond the Jewish people. This church arose after the persecution of Stephen, leading believers to scatter and preach the gospel in various regions. The disciples in Antioch were distinguished by their faith in Christ, and it's here that they were first referred to as Christians, highlighting the work of grace occurring in this multicultural context.
