44:002:047 Praising God, and having favour with all
the people. And the
Lord
added to the church daily such as should be saved.
44:003:001 Now Peter and John went up together into
the temple at the
hour
of prayer, being the ninth hour.
44:003:002 And a certain man lame from his mother’s
womb was carried,
whom
they laid daily at the gate of the temple which is
called
Beautiful,
to ask alms of them that entered into the temple;
44:003:003 Who seeing Peter and John about to go into
the temple asked an
alms.
44:003:004 And Peter, fastening his eyes upon him
with John, said, Look
on
us.
44:003:005 And he gave heed unto them, expecting to
receive something of
them.
44:003:006 Then Peter said, Silver and gold have I
none; but such as I
have
give I thee: In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth
rise
up
and walk.
44:003:007 And he took him by the right hand, and
lifted him up: and
immediately
his feet and ankle bones received strength.
44:003:008 And he leaping up stood, and walked, and
entered with them
into
the temple, walking, and leaping, and praising God.
44:003:009 And all the people saw him walking and praising God:
44:003:010 And they knew that it was he which sat
for alms at the
Beautiful
gate of the temple: and they were filled with
wonder
and
amazement at that which had happened unto him.
44:003:011 And as the lame man which was healed held
Peter and John, all
the
people ran together unto them in the porch that is
called
Solomon’s,
greatly wondering.
44:003:012 And when Peter saw it, he answered unto
the people, Ye men of
Israel,
why marvel ye at this? or why look ye so earnestly
on
us,
as though by our own power or holiness we had made
this
man
to walk?
44:003:013 The God of Abraham, and of Isaac, and of
Jacob, the God of our
fathers,
hath glorified his Son Jesus; whom ye delivered up,
and
denied him in the presence of Pilate, when he was
determined
to let him go.
44:003:014 But ye denied the Holy One and the Just,
and desired a
murderer
to be granted unto you;
44:003:015 And killed the Prince of life, whom God
hath raised from the
dead;
whereof we are witnesses.
44:003:016 And his name through faith in his name
hath made this man
strong,
whom ye see and know: yea, the faith which is
by him
hath
given him this perfect soundness in the presence of
you
all.
44:003:017 And now, brethren, I wot that through ignorance
ye did it, as
did
also your rulers.
