Where did peter preach his first sermon?
Peter preached his first sermon in Jerusalem on the day of Pentecost, following the arrival of the Holy Spirit. This sermon is recorded in the New Testament in the book of Acts, chapter 2.
Was Peter welcome to preach in Jerusalem?
The evidence is mixed. There were several competing sects of Judaism in the first century CE, as well as wandering preachers who gathered groups of followers, although those groups never achieved the size or longevity to be called sects. Since Christianity was considered at that stage to be another sect of Judaism, there should have been no bar to Peter preaching Christianity in Jerusalem. Paul, in his epistles, also portrays the Jerusalem church as being at peace with mainstream Jews. However, Acts tells us that Peter was persecuted by the leaders of the two dominant sects, for preaching in Jerusalem. On this evidence, Peter was not welcome to preach in Jerusalem.
Who can preach the gospel?
A born-again Christian may preach the gospel of Jesus Christ if he has read and studied the New Testament in the Bible. Historically, both the Apostle Peter and the Apostle Paul were the first to preach the gospel after the resurrection of Jesus. Peter preached to the Jews, Paul was sent by Jesus to preach the gospel to the Gentiles (non-Jews). Thereafter, ordinary Christians "gossiped the gospel" throughout the Roman Empire and beyond. Once the church became established in the Roman Empire, preaching of the gospel became the job of the "professional clergy". Nowadays, an increasing number of born-again Christians seek to preach the gospel in their family, workplace and community, since few nowadays attend church, and so will never hear the gospel otherwise.

What was Peter doing at Simon the Tanner's house?
Acts 9:43 records that he was staying there while in Joppa. Earlier in the chapter he had raised Tabitha (Dorcas) from the dead and many people had believed as a result of this miracle.

At the time the envoys from Cornelius came, Peter was praying and in the middle of seeing a vision, which led directly to him going with these men and the conversion of Cornelius and his household -the first recorded Gentile converts.
Whose vision should we believe.. Peter and Cornelius and the sheet of animals.. or Paul and the light and voice along the road to Damascus..Peter says God appointed him Apostle to the Gentiles.?
Answer: Galatians 2:7 through 9 makes it clear that Paul was the Apostle to the Gentiles and Peter was the Apostle to the Jews. There is no contradiction at all. Peter, however was the first apostle to preach to the Gentiles -Cornelius and his household ( Acts 10). This was a new thing in church history and Peter was the one chosen by God to make this important breakthrough and to defend and explain what had occurred to the leaders of the church in Jerusalem. Also the experience of Paul along the Damascus road was initially solely for his benefit -to lead to his conversion and that he would be God's 'chosen vessel' to preach the faith he once tried to destroy. Acts 9:15 makes it clear that preaching to the Gentiles was indeed Paul's calling.Actually in Acts 8:26 and following the evangelist Philip is recorded as being instrumental in the conversion of the Ethiopian eunuch. This was apparently an isolated incident, while Peter's preaching to Cornelius aroused much more widespread interest.
