Context of Acts 10:33

31The man said to me, “Cornelius, you have prayed to God and you have often given money to poor people. Now God wants to answer you. 32So send some men to Joppa to fetch a man who is called Simon Peter. He is staying there at the house of Simon the tanner. His house is near the sea.” So I sent some men immediately to bring you here. Thank you that you agreed to come. Now we are all here together, and God is with us. We are ready to listen to your message. Please tell us everything that the Lord God has told you to say.’ 34Then Peter said to them, ‘Now I understand that God accepts all people in the same way. God has shown me that this is true. 35God accepts all people who worship him and who do the right things. It is not important to God which nation a person belongs to.
