Acts 3:12-26 - Peter Preaches In The Temple
12 When Peter saw that, he answered unto the people, "Ye men of Israel, why marvel ye at this? Or why look ye so steadfastly on us, as though by our own power or holiness we had made this man go? 13 The God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, the God of our fathers, hath glorified his son Jesus, whom ye delivered and denied in the presence of Pilate, when he had judged him to be loosed: 14 but ye denied the holy and just, and desired a murderer to be given you, 15 and killed the Lord of life whom God hath raised from death, of the which we are witnesses: 16 And his name, through the faith of his name, hath made this man sound whom ye see and know. And the faith which is by him, hath to him given this health, in the presence of you all.
17 And now, brethren, I know well that through ignorance ye did it, as did also your heads. 18 But those things which God before had showed by the mouth of all his prophets, how that Christ should suffer, he hath thus wise fulfilled it. 19 Repent ye, therefore, and turn: that your sins may be done away when the time of refreshing cometh, which we shall have of the presence of the Lord, 20 and when God shall send him, which before was preached unto you, 21 that is, to wit, Jesus Christ: which must receive heaven until the time that all things which God hath spoken by the mouth of all his holy prophets since the world began, be restored again. 22 For Moses said unto the fathers, 'A prophet shall the Lord your God raise up unto you, even of your brethren, like unto me: him shall ye hear in all things whatsoever he shall say unto you. 23 For the time will come, that every soul which shall not hear that same prophet, shall be destroyed from among the people.'
24 Also all the prophets from Samuel, and thenceforth, as many as have spoken, have in likewise told of these days. 25 Ye are the children of the prophets, and of the covenant, which God hath made unto our fathers, saying to Abraham, 'Even in thy seed shall all the kindreds of the earth be blessed.' 26 First unto you hath God raised up his son Jesus, and him he hath sent to bless you, that every one of you should turn from your wickedness."
