44:002:029 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.
44:002:030 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;
44:002:031 He seeing this before spake of the resurrection
of Christ,
that
his soul was not left in hell, neither his flesh did
see
corruption.
44:002:032 This Jesus hath God raised up, whereof we all are witnesses.
44:002:033 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.
44:002:034 For David is not ascended into the heavens:
but he saith
himself,
The Lord said unto my Lord, Sit thou on my right
hand,
44:002:035 Until I make thy foes thy footstool.
44:002:036 Therefore let all the house of Israel know
assuredly, that God
hath
made the same Jesus, whom ye have crucified, both Lord
and
Christ.
44:002:037 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?
44:002:038 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.
44:002:039 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.
44:002:040 And with many other words did he testify
and exhort, saying,
Save
yourselves from this untoward generation.
44:002:041 Then they that gladly received his word
were baptized: and the
same
day there were added unto them about three thousand
souls.
44:002:042 And they continued stedfastly in the apostles’
doctrine and
fellowship,
and in breaking of bread, and in prayers.
44:002:043 And fear came upon every soul: and
many wonders and signs were
done
by the apostles.
44:002:044 And all that believed were together, and
had all things
common;
44:002:045 And sold their possessions and goods, and
parted them to all
men,
as every man had need.
44:002:046 And they, continuing daily with one accord
in the temple, and
breaking
bread from house to house, did eat their meat with
gladness
and singleness of heart,
