Acts 10:1-8 - Cornelius Has A Vision
1 Now there was at Caesarea a man named Cornelius, a captain in the Italian regiment. 2 He was a devout man and God-fearing, and so were all his household. He gave many alms to the people, and constantly prayed to God. 3 About three o'clock one afternoon he had a vision, and distinctly saw an angel of God enter his house and say to him, "Cornelius."
4 He stared at him in terror, and said, "What is it, Lord?" "Your prayers and your alms have risen for a memorial before God," answered the angel; 5 "and now send men to Joppa and fetch one Simon, who is called Peter. 6 "He is staying as a guest with Simon, a tanner, whose house is near the sea."
7 And after the angel who was speaking to him was gone, he called two of his household servants and a devout soldier who was in constant attendance upon him, 8 and after telling them everything, he sent them to Joppa.
