"Therefore let it be known to you that the salvation of God has been sent to the Gentiles, and they will hear it!"

"Paul said to the centurion and the soldiers, 'Unless these men stay in the ship, you cannot be saved.'"

"And Paul said, 'I would to God that not only you, but also all who hear me today, might become both almost and altogether such as I am, except for these chains.'"

"But this I confess to you, that according to the Way which they call a sect, so I worship the God of my fathers, believing all things which are written in the Law and in the Prophets."

"But the following night the Lord stood by him and said, 'Be of good cheer, Paul; for as you have testified for Me in Jerusalem, so you must also bear witness at Rome.'"

"Then Paul, looking earnestly at the council, said, 'Men and brethren, I have lived in all good conscience before God until this day.'  And the high priest...commanded those...to strike him."

"Then He said to me, 'Depart, for I will send you far from here to the Gentiles.'  And they listened to him until this word..."

"And they said to him, 'You see, brother, how many myriads of Jews there are who have believed, and they are all zealous for the law..."

"Then Paul answered, 'What do you mean by weeping and breaking my heart?  For I am ready not only to be bound, but also to die at Jerusalem for the name of the Lord Jesus."

"Therefore I testify to you this day that I am innocent of the blood of all men.  For I have not shunned to declare to you the whole counsel of God."

"...how I kept back nothing that was helpful, but proclaimed it to you, and taught you publicly and from house to house, testifying...repentance toward God and faith toward our Lord Jesus Christ."

"Moreover you see and hear that not only at Ephesus, but throughout almost all Asia, this Paul has persuaded and turned away many people, saying that they are not gods which are made with hands."

"And the evil spirit answered and said, 'Jesus I know, and Paul I know; but who are you?'"

"And he went into the synagogue and spoke boldly for three months, reasoning and persuading concerning the things of the kingdom of God."

"'Did you receive the Holy Spirit when you believed?'  So they said to him, 'We have not so much as heard whether there is a Holy Spirit.'"

"And it happened, while Apollos was at Corinth, that Paul, having passed through the upper regions, came to Ephesus.  And finding some disciples he said to them, 'Did you receive the Holy Spirit when you believed?"

"So he (Apollos) began to speak boldly in the synagogue.  When Aquila and Priscilla heard him, they took him aside and explained to him the way of God more accurately."

"Now the Lord spoke to Paul in the night by a vision, 'Do not be afraid, but speak, and do not keep silent; for I am with you, and no one will attack you to hurt you; for I have many people in this city.'"

"...for as I was passing through and considering the objects of your worship, I even found an altar with this inscription:  TO THE UNKNOWN GOD.  Therefore, the One whom you worship without knowing, Him I proclaim to you..."

"And he brought them out and said, 'Sirs, what must I do to be saved?'  So they said, 'Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and you will be saved, you and your household.'"

"Then the contention became so sharp that they parted from one another.  And so Barnabas took Mark and sailed to Cyprus; but Paul chose Silas and departed, being commended by the brethren to the grace of God."

"So God, who knows the heart, acknowledged them by giving them the Holy Spirit, just as He did to us, and made no distinction between us and them, purifying their hearts by faith."

"Therefore they stayed there a long time, speaking boldly in the Lord, who was bearing witness to the word of His grace, granting signs and wonders to be done by their hands."

"Now when the Gentiles heard this, they were glad and glorified the word of the Lord.  And as many as had been appointed to eternal life believed."

"Now when they had fulfilled all that was written converning Him, they took Him down from the tree and laid Him in a tomb.  But God raised Him from the dead."

"As they ministered to the Lord and fasted, the Holy Spirit said, 'Now separate to Me Barnabas and Saul for the work to which I have called them.'"

"Now behold, an angel of the Lord stood by him, and a light shone in the prison; and he struck Peter on the side and raised him up, saying, 'Arise quickly!'  And his chains fell off his hands."

"When they heard these things they became silent; and they glorified God, saying, 'Then God has also granted to the Gentiles repentance to life.'"

"And those of the circumcision who believed were astonished, as many as came with Peter, because the gift of the HOly Spirit had been poured out on the Gentiles also."

"Then the churches throughout all Judea, Galilee, and Samaria had peace and were edified.  And walking in the fear of the Lord and in the comfort of the Holy Spirit, they were multiplied."

"And he said, 'Who are You, Lord?'  Then the Lord said, 'I am Jesus, whom you are persecuting.  It is hard for you to kick against the goads.'"

"Now an angel of the Lord spoke to Philip, saying, 'Arise and go toward the south along the road which goes down from Jerusalem to Gaza.'  This is desert."

"You stiff-necked and uncircumcised in heart and ears!  You always resist the Holy Spirit; as your fathers did, so do you."

"You stiff-necked and uncircumcised in heart and ears!  You always resist the Holy Spirit; as your fathers did, so do you."

"And Stephen, full of faith and power, did great wonders and signs among the people."

"Therefore, brethren, seek out from among you seven men of good reputation, full of the Holy Spirit and wisdom, whom we may appoint over this business..."

"And we are His witnesses to these things, and so also is the Holy Spirit whom God has given to those who obey Him."

"You have not lied to men but to God...So great fear came upon all the church and upon all who heard these things."

"And when they had prayed, the place where they were assembled together was shaken; and they were all filled with the Holy Spirit, and they spoke the word of God with boldness."

"This is the stone which was rejected by you builders, which has become the chief cornerstone.  Nor is there salvation in any other, for there is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved."

"Then Peter said, 'Silver and gold I do not have, but what I do have I give you: In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, rise up and walk.'"

"And they continued steadfastly in the apostles' doctrine and fellowship, in the breaking of bread, and in prayers."

"And they were all filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance."

"These all continued with one accord in prayer and supplication, with the women and Mary the mother of Jesus, and with His brothers."

"But you shall receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you; and you shall be witnesses to Me in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the end of the earth."
