  • Acts 3:12-26 : 12 And when Peter saw it, he responded to the people, Men of Israel, why do you marvel at this? or why do you look so intently on us, as though by our own power or godliness we had made this man walk? 13 The God of Abraham, and of Isaac, and of Jacob, the God of our fathers, has glorified His Son Jesus; whom you delivered, and denied in the presence of Pilate, when he was determined to let Him go. 14 But you denied the Holy One and the Just, and desired a murderer to be granted to you; 15 And killed the Prince of life, whom God has raised from the dead; of which we are witnesses. 16 And His name through faith in His name has made this man strong, whom you see and know: yes, the faith which is by Him has given him this perfect soundness in the presence of you all. 17 And now, brethren, I know that through ignorance you did it, as did also your rulers. 18 But those things which God beforehand has shown by the mouth of all His prophets, that Christ should suffer, He has thus fulfilled. 19 Repent therefore, and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out, when the times of refreshing shall come from the presence of the Lord; 20 And He shall send Jesus Christ, who before was preached to you: 21 Whom the heavens must receive until the times of restitution of all things, which God has spoken by the mouth of all His holy prophets since the world began. 22 For Moses truly said to the fathers, A prophet shall the Lord your God raise up to you from among your brethren, like unto me; Him shall you hear in all things whatever He shall say to you. 23 And it shall come to pass that every soul who will not hear that prophet shall be destroyed from among the people. 24 Yes, and all the prophets from Samuel and those who follow after, as many as have spoken, have likewise foretold of these days. 25 You are the children of the prophets, and of the covenant which God made with our fathers, saying to Abraham, And in your seed shall all the families of the earth be blessed. 26 To you first, God, having raised up His Son Jesus, sent Him to bless you, in turning away every one of you from his iniquities.

And immediately a mist and a darkness fell on him; and he went around seeking someone to lead him by the hand.
  • Acts 14:3-9 : 3 So they stayed there a long time, speaking boldly in the Lord, who confirmed the word of His grace by granting signs and wonders to be done by their hands. 4 But the multitude of the city was divided: some sided with the Jews, and some with the apostles. 5 And when an attempt was made by both the Gentiles and the Jews with their rulers to mistreat and stone them, 6 They became aware of it and fled to Lystra and Derbe, cities of Lycaonia, and to the surrounding region, 7 And there they preached the gospel. 8 And there sat a certain man at Lystra, powerless in his feet, being a cripple from his mother's womb, who had never walked. 9 This man heard Paul speaking, who, looking intently at him and seeing that he had faith to be healed, 10 Said with a loud voice, Stand upright on your feet. And he leaped up and walked. 11 And when the people saw what Paul had done, they raised their voices, saying in the Lycaonian language, The gods have come down to us in the likeness of men.
