The word "Jerusalem" appears in Acts of the Apostles fifty-nine times.
It is once in the book of Acts.
The Book of Acts begins in Jerusalem and ends in Rome.
The city in which the Christians rec'd the Holy Spirit was Jerusalem, according to Acts 1:4-5.
In Jerusalem (Acts 1:12-)
The Jerusalem council was held in Acts chapter 15. It was a meeting of the early Christian leaders to discuss the inclusion of Gentile believers in the church without the need for circumcision.
Paul says that after his conversion, he spoke to no man, but went straight to Arabia, then returned to Damascus, bypassing Jerusalem. After spending time in Damascus, he went to Jerusalem and met Peter, then James and John.Paul's own account in the epistles makes no mention of a dramatic conversion on the road to Damascus, as described in Acts of the Apostles more than half a century later. Instead he says that he received the gospel from no man, but by direct revelation from God.However, Acts of the Apostles tells an entirely different story, saying that Paul, being blinded, was led to Damascus where he met Ananias, who restored his vision and began to teach him the gospel.

According to my trusty Strong's, Stephen is in the KJV 7 times … all in the Book of Acts.
The word 'Conversion' is mentioned 6 times in scripture: Acts 15:3, Helaman 6:3, Helaman 6:4, Alma 27:25, 3 Nephi 9:20, and Joseph Smith History 1:6 The word 'Convert' is mentioned 48 times.
No. Acts contains references to three different men named Ananias: 1) The husband of Sapphira, who was struck dead in Acts 5:5. 2) A disciple (Christian) who lived in Damascus and had an active role in the conversion of Saul of Tarsus (Acts 9 and 22) 3) The high priest in Jerusalem; a member of the council before which Paul appeared in his own defense (Acts 23 and 24).
Acts 9:26, 27 - And when Saul had come to Jerusalem, he tried to join the disciples; but they were all afraid of him, and did not believe that he was a disciple. But Barnabastook him and brought him to the apostles. And he declared to them how he had seen the Lord on the road, and that He had spoken to him, and how he had preached boldly at Damascus in the name of Jesus. [NKJV]
