Acts 10:34-43

Peter's Sermon to Cornelius

34
And Peter opening his mouth, said: in very deed I perceive that God is not a respecter of persons.
35
But in every nation, he that feareth him and worketh justice is acceptable to him.
36
God sent the word to the children of Israel, preaching peace by Jesus Christ (He is Lord of all).
37
You know the word which hath been published through all Judea: for it began from Galilee, after the baptism which John preached.
38
Jesus of Nazareth: how God anointed him with the Holy Ghost and with power, who went about doing good and healing all that were oppressed by the devil, for God was with him.
39
And we are witnesses of all things that he did in the land of the Jews and in Jerusalem: whom they killed, hanging him upon a tree.
40
Him God raised up the third day and gave him to be made manifest,
41
Not to all the people, but to witnesses preordained by God, even to us, who did eat and drink with him, after he arose again from the dead.
42
And he commanded us to preach to the people and to testify that it is he who was appointed by God to be judge of the living and of the dead.
43
To him all the prophets give testimony, that by his name all receive remission of sins, who believe in him.
