Acts 10:9-24 - Peter Has A Vision
9 On the morrow, as they journeyed and drew nigh to the city, Peter went up on the house-top, to pray, about the sixth hour. 10 And he became very hungry, and would have eaten; but while they made ready, he fell into a trance, 11 And saw heaven opened, and a certain vessel like a great sheet, tied at the four corners, descending to him, and let down on the earth: 12 Wherein were all four-footed creatures of the earth, and creeping things, and fowls of the air. 13 And a voice came to him, Rise, Peter, kill and eat.
14 But Peter said, In no wise, Lord: for I have never eaten any thing common or unclean.
15 And the voice came to him again, the second time, What God hath purified, call not thou common. 16 This was done thrice, and the vessel was taken up again to heaven.
17 Now while Peter doubted in himself, what the vision he had seen should mean, behold the men sent by Cornelius, having inquired out Simon's house, stood at the gate, 18 And calling asked, Whether Simon, surnamed Peter, lodged there?
19 While Peter was musing on the vision, the Spirit said to him, Behold, men seek thee. 20 Arise therefore and go down, and go with them, doubting nothing; for I have sent them.
21 Then Peter going down to the men, said, Behold, I am he whom ye seek: for what cause are ye come?
22 And they said, Cornelius the centurion, a just man, and fearing God, and of good report among all the nation of the Jews, was warned of God by an holy angel, to send for thee to his house, and to hear words from thee. 23 And he invited them in and lodged them. And the next day, Peter went away with them; and certain brethren from Joppa went with him. 24 And the day following they entered into Cesarea. And Cornelius was waiting for them, having called together his kinsmen and near friends.
