DAY 2 FOR A GOAL OF READING THE BOOK OF ACTS IN 30 DAYS
AC-2:9 Parthians, and Medes, and Elamites, and the dwellers in
Mesopotamia, and in Judaea, and Cappadocia, in Pontus, and Asia,
AC-2:10 Phrygia, and Pamphylia, in Egypt, and in the parts of
Libya
about Cyrene, and strangers of Rome, Jews and proselytes,
AC-2:11 Cretes and Arabians, we do hear them speak in our
tongues
the wonderful works of God.
AC-2:12 And they were all amazed, and were in doubt, saying one
to
another, What meaneth this?
AC-2:13 Others mocking said, These men are full of new wine.
AC-2:14 But Peter, standing up with the eleven, lifted up his
voice, and said unto them, Ye men of Judaea, and all [ye] that
dwell
at Jerusalem, be this known unto you, and hearken to my words:
AC-2:15 For these are not drunken, as ye suppose, seeing it is
[but] the third hour of the day.
AC-2:16 But this is that which was spoken by the prophet Joel;
AC-2:17 And it shall come to pass in the last days, saith God, I
will pour out of my Spirit upon all flesh: and your sons and your
daughters shall prophesy, and your young men shall see visions,
and
your old men shall dream dreams:
AC-2:18 And on my servants and on my handmaidens I will pour
out in
those days of my Spirit; and they shall prophesy:
AC-2:19 And I will show wonders in heaven above, and signs in
the
earth beneath; blood, and fire, and vapour of smoke:
AC-2:20 The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into
blood, before that great and notable day of the Lord come:
AC-2:21 And it shall come to pass, [that] whosoever shall call
on
the name of the Lord shall be saved.
AC-2:22 Ye men of Israel, hear these words; Jesus of Nazareth, a
man approved of God among you by miracles and wonders and signs,
which God did by him in the midst of you, as ye yourselves also
know:
AC-2:23 Him, being delivered by the determinate counsel and
foreknowledge of God, ye have taken, and by wicked hands have
crucified and slain:
AC-2:24 Whom God hath raised up, having loosed the pains of
death:
because it was not possible that he should be holden of it.
AC-2:25 For David speaketh concerning him, I foresaw the Lord
always before my face, for he is on my right hand, that I should
not
be moved:
AC-2:26 Therefore did my heart rejoice, and my tongue was glad;
moreover also my flesh shall rest in hope:
AC-2:27 Because thou wilt not leave my soul in hell, neither
wilt
thou suffer thine Holy One to see corruption.
AC-2:28 Thou hast made known to me the ways of life; thou shalt
make me full of joy with thy countenance.
AC-2:29 Men [and] brethren, let me freely speak unto you of the
patriarch David, that he is both dead and buried, and his
sepulchre
is with us unto this day.
AC-2:30 Therefore being a prophet, and knowing that God had
sworn
with an oath to him, that of the fruit of his loins, according to
the flesh, he would raise up Christ to sit on his throne;
AC-2:31 He seeing this before spake of the resurrection of
Christ,
that his soul was not left in hell, neither his flesh did see
corruption.
AC-2:32 This Jesus hath God raised up, whereof we all are
witnesses.
AC-2:33 Therefore being by the right hand of God exalted, and
having received of the Father the promise of the Holy Ghost, he
hath
shed forth this, which ye now see and hear.
AC-2:34 For David is not ascended into the heavens: but he saith
himself, The Lord said unto my Lord, Sit thou on my right hand,
AC-2:35 Until I make thy foes thy footstool.
AC-2:36 Therefore let all the house of Israel know assuredly,
that
God hath made that same Jesus, whom ye have crucified, both Lord
and
Christ.
AC-2:37 Now when they heard [this], they were pricked in their
heart, and said unto Peter and to the rest of the apostles, Men
[and] brethren, what shall we do?
AC-2:38 Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every
one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins,
and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost.
AC-2:39 For the promise is unto you, and to your children, and
to
all that are afar off, [even] as many as the Lord our God shall
call.
AC-2:40 And with many other words did he testify and exhort,
saying, Save yourselves from this untoward generation.
AC-2:41 Then they that gladly received his word were baptized:
and
the same day there were added [unto them] about three thousand
souls.
AC-2:42 And they continued stedfastly in the apostles' doctrine
and
fellowship, and in breaking of bread, and in prayers.
AC-2:43 And fear came upon every soul: and many wonders and
signs
were done by the apostles.
AC-2:44 And all that believed were together, and had all things
common;
AC-2:45 And sold their possessions and goods, and parted them to
all [men], as every man had need.
