Acts 10:34-43

34Then Peter started speaking: “I now truly understand that God does not show favoritism in dealing with people,

35but in every nation the person who fears him and does what is right is welcomed before him.

36You know the message he sent to the people of Israel, proclaiming the good news of peace through Jesus Christ (he is Lord of all) –

37you know what happened throughout Judea, beginning from Galilee after the baptism that John announced:

38with respect to Jesus from Nazareth, that God anointed him with the Holy Spirit and with power. He went around doing good and healing all who were oppressed by the devil, because God was with him.

39We are witnesses of all the things he did both in Judea and in Jerusalem. They killed him by hanging him on a tree,

40but God raised him up on the third day and caused him to be seen,

41not by all the people, but by us, the witnesses God had already chosen, who ate and drank with him after he rose from the dead.

42He commanded us to preach to the people and to warn them that he is the one appointed by God as judge of the living and the dead.

43About him all the prophets testify, that everyone who believes in him receives forgiveness of sins through his name.”
