Acts 10:23-29

23So Peter invited them in to be his guests. The next day he got up and went with them, and some of the brothers from Joppa accompanied him.

24The following day he entered Caesarea. Cornelius was waiting for them and had called together his relatives and close friends.

25As Peter entered, Cornelius met him and fell down at his feet and worshiped him.

26But Peter pulled him up, saying, “Stand up! I too am just a man.”

27Talking with him, Peter went inside and found many people gathered.

28He said to them, “You yourselves know that it is not permitted for a Jewish man to associate with a non-Jew or to visit him. Yet God has shown me that I should call no one unholy or unclean.

29So I came without objection when I was sent for. I ask, then, what is the reason why you sent for me?”
