Acts 10:10-20

10Then he became very hungry and wanted to eat; but while they made ready, he fell into a trance

11and saw heaven opened and an object like a great sheet bound at the four corners, descending to him and let down to the earth.

12In it were all kinds of four-footed animals of the earth, wild beasts, creeping things, and birds of the air.

13And a voice came to him, “Rise, Peter; kill and eat.”

14But Peter said, “Not so, Lord! For I have never eaten anything common or unclean.”

15And a voice spoke to him again the second time, “What God has cleansed you must not call common.”

16This was done three times. And the object was taken up into heaven again.

17Now while Peter wondered within himself what this vision which he had seen meant, behold, the men who had been sent from Cornelius had made inquiry for Simon’s house, and stood before the gate.

18And they called and asked whether Simon, whose surname was Peter, was lodging there.

19While Peter thought about the vision, the Spirit said to him, “Behold, three men are seeking you.

20Arise therefore, go down and go with them, doubting nothing; for I have sent them.”
