Acts 2:27-33

27because you do not abandon my soul to the grave or allow your holy one to decay.

28You make the path of life known to me. In your presence there is complete joy.’

29“Brothers, I can tell you confidently that our ancestor David died and was buried and that his tomb is here to this day.

30David was a prophet and knew that God had promised with an oath that he would place one of David’s descendants on his throne.

31David knew that the Messiah would come back to life, and he spoke about that before it ever happened. He said that the Messiah wouldn’t be left in the grave and that his body wouldn’t decay.

32“God brought this man Jesus back to life. We are all witnesses to that.

33God the Father used his power to give Jesus the honored position—the one next to him on the heavenly throne. Jesus has also received and has poured out the Holy Spirit as the Father had promised, and this is what you’re seeing and hearing.
