Acts 10:1-8 - Cornelius Has A Vision

1 And a certain man named Cornelius was in Caesarea, a centurion of the Italian cohort, 2 one devout and fearing God, with all his household, both doing many merciful deeds to the people, and praying continually to God. 3 About the ninth hour of the day he saw plainly in a vision an angel of God coming to him and saying to him, Cornelius!

4 And he was gazing at him, and becoming terrified, he said, What is it, lord? And he said to him, Your prayers and your merciful deeds have come up for a memorial before God. 5 And now send men to Joppa and call for Simon, whose last name is Peter. 6 He is staying with one Simon a tanner, whose house is by the seaside. He will tell you what you must do.

7 And when the angel who spoke to Cornelius departed, he called two of his servants and a devout soldier from those who waited on him continually. 8 And explaining all things to them, he sent them to Joppa.
