Acts 5:29-34

²⁹But Peter and the apostles answered, “We have to obey God rather than men.

³⁰The God of our forefathers raised Jesus from the dead—the one you killed by hanging him on a cross.

³¹God exalted him to a position of honor at his right hand as Prince and Savior, as a way to bring repentance to Israel, and for the forgiveness of sins.

³²We are witnesses of what happened, and so is the Holy Spirit, whom God has given to those who obey him.”

³³When the council heard this they were furious and wanted to kill them.

³⁴But then one of the council members stood up to speak. He was Gamaliel, a Pharisee and a doctor of law who was respected by everyone. He ordered the apostles sent out for a short while.
