39. We can testify to everything Jesus did in the land of the Jews and in Jerusalem. People hung him on a cross and killed him,
40. but God brought him back to life on the third day. God didn’t show him
41. to all the people. He showed Jesus to witnesses, apostles he had already chosen. We apostles are those men who ate and drank with Jesus after he came back to life.
42. He ordered us to warn the people, ‘God has appointed Jesus to judge the living and the dead.’
43. In addition, all the prophets testify that people who believe in the one named Jesus receive forgiveness for their sins through him.”
44. While Peter was still speaking, the Holy Spirit came to everyone who heard his message.
45. All the believers who were circumcised and who had come with Peter were amazed that the gift of the Holy Spirit had been poured on people who were not Jewish.
