Acts 10:36-43

³⁶God has sent his message to the Israelites and told them, through Jesus Christ, the good news of peace — and Jesus is Lord of all!

³⁷You yourselves know the story which spread through all Judea, how, beginning form Galilee, after the baptism which John proclaimed —

³⁸The story, I mean, of Jesus of Nazareth, and how God consecrated him his Christ by enduing him with the Holy Spirit and with power; and how he went about doing good and curing all who were under the power of the devil, because God was with him.

³⁹We are ourselves, too, witnesses to all that he did in Judea and in Jerusalem; yet they put him to death by hanging him on a cross!

⁴⁰This Jesus God raised on the third day, and enabled him to appear,

⁴¹not indeed to everyone, but to witnesses chosen beforehand by God — to us, who ate and drank with him after his resurrection from the dead.

⁴²Further, God charged us to proclaim to the people, and solemnly affirm, that it is Jesus who has been appointed by God judge of the living and the dead.

⁴³To him it is that all the prophets bear witness, when they say that everyone who believes in him receives through his name forgiveness of sins.”
