But Peter and the apostles responding said, It behooves us to obey God rather than men. The God of our fathers raised up Jesus, whom you have slain, hanging him on the wood; Him hath God exalted at His own right hand, a Prince and a Savior, to give repentance and remission of sins to Israel.



All things are from God, the one having reconciled us unto himself through Christ, and gave us the ministry of reconciliation, as that God was in Christ reconciling the world to himself, not imputing their transgressions to them, even having placed in us the word of reconciliation. Therefore we are embassadors in behalf of Christ, as God is intreating you through us; we pray you in behalf of Christ, be ye reconciled to God. read more.
He made him sin in our behalf, who knew no sin; in order that we may become the righteousness of God in him.


And Peter seeing them, responded to the people; Israelitish men, why are you astonished at this, or why do you look upon us as having by our own power or holiness, made this man to walk about? The God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob, and the God of our fathers, hath glorified his Child, Jesus, who you indeed delivered up and denied before the face of Pilate having decided to release Him. And you denied the Holy and Righteous One, and ask that a man who was a murderer should be delivered unto you, read more.
and you slew the Prince of life, whom God raised from the dead, whose witnesses we are. And through the faith of his name, his name hath made sound this one who you see and know, and through him faith has given unto him this soundness, in the presence of you all. And now, brethren, I know that you did it through ignorance, as did your rulers also; and those things which God proclaimed through the mouth of all the prophets that his Christ should suffer, he hath thus fulfilled. Repent, therefore, and turn, that your sins may be blotted out, in order that seasons of soul-renewing may come from the presence of the Lord, and he may send forth Jesus, who has been preached unto you as the Christ, whom it behooves heaven indeed to receive until the times of the restitution of all things which God spoke through the mouth of all his prophets from the beginning. Moses indeed said; The Lord our God will raise up to you from your brethren a prophet like unto me; Him you will hear concerning all things so many as he may speak to you. And it shall come to pass, that every soul whosoever will not hear that prophet, shall be cut off from the people. And indeed all the prophets from Samuel and consecutively, so many as spoke, also proclaimed these days. Ye are the sons of the prophets, and of the covenant which God made with our fathers, saying to Abraham, In thy seed shall the families of the earth be truly blessed. To you God, having first raised up his Son, sent him blessing you, in turning each one from your sins.

if we are this day judged for the benefaction of the impotent man, by whom he has been saved, let it be known to you all, and to all the people of Israel, that in the name of Jesus Christ, the Nazarene whom you crucified, whom God raised from the dead, through him this man now stands sound in your presence. This is the stone rejected by your builders, which has become the head of the corner. read more.
And there is salvation in no other; for there is no other name given under heaven among men by which it behooveth us to he saved. And seeing the boldness of Peter and John, and apprehending that they are unlearned and ignorant men, they continued to be astonished, and recognized them, that they were with Jesus;

And Peter and John responding said to them, Whether it is right in the sight of God to hearken unto you rather than God, judge ye; for we are not able not to speak those things which we have seen and heard.

And the high priest and all those being with him, being the sect of the Sadducees, were filled with rage, and laid hands on the apostles, and placed them in the public prison. And the angel of the Lord, having opened the doors of the prison during the night, and leading them out said, read more.
Go, and standing in the temple, speak to the people all the words of this life. And hearing, they came into the temple at daydawn, and were teaching. And the high priest coming and those with him, called together the sanhedrim and all the eldership of the children of Israel, and sent to the prison to bring them. And the officers arriving found them not in the prison; and having returned, reported, saying; We found the prison closed with all safety, and the guards standing at the doors, and having opened, we found no one within. And when the captain of the temple, and the chief priests heard these words, they were at a loss concerning them, what this might be. And a certain one coming announced to them, Behold, the men whom you placed in the prison are standing in the temple and teaching the people. Then the captain along with the officers, having gone away, led them, not with violence, for they feared the people lest they might be stoned. And leading them, they placed them in the council, and the chief priests asked them, saying, With commandment we commanded you not to teach in this name; and behold, you have filled Jerusalem with your teaching; and you are determined to bring upon us the blood of this man. But Peter and the apostles responding said, It behooves us to obey God rather than men.

And we are witnesses of these words, and the Holy Ghost, whom God has given to those who obey him. And hearing, they were cut through and were minded to kill them. But a certain Pharisee, Gamaliel by name, a teacher of the law, honorable to all the people, rising in the sanhedrim command them to put the men out for a short time, and he said to them; Israelitish men, take heed to yourselves in reference to these men what you are about to do. For before these days Theudas arose, saying that he was somebody, to whom a number of men, about four hundred, adhered, who were slain, and all, so many as confided in him, were dispersed, and came to nothing. After him Judas the Galilean arose, in the days of the enrollment, and led the people after him; he also perished, and all, so many as confided in him, were scattered abroad. And I now say this to you: Stand aloof from these men, and let them alone; for if this counsel or this work be of men, it will come to naught; but if it be of God, you will not be able to destroy them, lest perchance you may also be found fighting against God. And they obeyed him, and having called the apostles, beating them, they commanded them not to speak in the name of Jesus, and sent them away. Then they departed from the face of the sanhedrim, rejoicing indeed, because they were counted worthy to suffer dishonor for the sake of his name. And all day in the temple, and from house to house, they ceased not teaching and preaching the gospel of Jesus Christ.

And the chief priests were accusing Him of many things. And Pilate again asked Him, saying, Do you not answer? behold, how many things they witness against you. And Jesus responded nothing at all; so that Pilate marveled.

Then Peter being full of the Holy Spirit said to them, Ye rulers of the people and elders, if we are this day judged for the benefaction of the impotent man, by whom he has been saved, let it be known to you all, and to all the people of Israel, that in the name of Jesus Christ, the Nazarene whom you crucified, whom God raised from the dead, through him this man now stands sound in your presence. read more.

And the high priests said; Are these things so? And he said, Men, brothers and fathers, hear ye; The God of glory appeared to our father Abraham, while he was in Mesopotamia, before he migrated into Haran, and He said to him; Come out from thy country and from thy kindred, and come hither into the land which I will show unto thee. read more.
And after his father died he migrated himself thence into this country in which you now dwell, and God gave him no inheritance in it, not the step of his foot; and he promised to give it to him, and his seed after him, for an inheritance, there being no child to him. And thus God spoke, that his seed shall sojourn in a strange land, and they will enslave it and oppress it four hundred years. And the nation whom they shall serve I will judge, says God, and after these things they shall come out and serve me in this place. And He gave him the covenant of circumcision; and so he begat Isaac, and circumcised him on the eighth day; and Isaac, Jacob; and Jacob, the twelve patriarchs. And the patriarchs, envying Joseph, sold him into Egypt: and God was with him, and delivered him out of all his troubles, and gave him grace and wisdom before Pharaoh the king of Egypt; and he placed him governor over Egypt and all his house. And the famine came into all the land and Canaan, and great distress: and our fathers found no sustenance. And Jacob hearing that there is food in Egypt, sent away our fathers first. And the second time Joseph was made known to his brethren, and his race became manifest to Pharaoh. And Joseph sending, called to him Jacob his father, and all the family, seventy-five souls. And Jacob went down into Egypt, and he and our fathers died there. And they were carried over into Shechem, and buried in a tomb which Abraham purchased from the sons of Emmor in Shechem with a sum of money. When the time of the promise which God made with Abraham drew nigh, the people increased and multiplied in Egypt, until another king arose over Egypt, who knew not Joseph. He dealing fraudulently with our race, afflicted our fathers, that they should expose their infants, so that they should not live. During which time Moses was born, and was beautiful to God; who was kept three months in the house of his father. And he being exposed, the daughter of Pharaoh took him, and adopted him for a son to herself. And Moses was educated in all the wisdom of the Egyptians; and was mighty in his words and works. And when the time of the fortieth year was fulfilled to him, it came into his heart to visit his brethren, the children of Israel. And seeing a certain one suffering affliction, he interposed, and executed vengeance in behalf of the oppressed one, slaying the Egyptian. And he supposed that his brethren would understand that God through his hand is giving them salvation: but they did not recognize it. On the following day, he appeared to them fighting, and undertook to reduce them to peace, saying, Men, you are brethren; therefore do not injure one another. And the one injuring his neighbor thrust him away, saying, Who appointeth you a leader and a judge over us? whether do you wish to kill me, in the manner in which you slew the Egyptian yesterday? And at this word Moses fled, and became a sojourner in the land of Midia, where he begat two sons. And forty years having passed away, an angel appeared to him in the desert of Mount Sinai in the flame of fire of the bramble bush. And Moses, seeing the sight, was astonished: and he coming nigh to investigate, the voice of the Lord came: I am the God of thy fathers, the God of Abraham, and of Isaac, and of Jacob. And Moses trembling, did not dare to investigate. And the Lord said to him, Loose the sandal of thy feet: for the place on which thou standest is holy ground. Seeing, I have seen the affliction of my people who are in Egypt, and heard their groaning, and have come down to deliver them. And come now, I will send thee into Egypt. And this Moses whom they denied, saying, Who hath established thee a ruler and a judge? him hath God sent a ruler and deliverer, with the hand of an angel having appeared unto him in a bush. He led them out, doing wonders and miracles in the land of Egypt, and in the Red Sea, and in the wilderness forty years. This Moses is the one having said to the sons of Israel, A prophet will God raise up to you of your brethren, like unto me. And this is the one being in the church in the wilderness with the angel speaking to him in Mount Sinai, and with our fathers: who received the living oracles to give unto us; to whom our fathers were not willing to be obedient, but thrust him away, and turned back in their hearts towards Egypt, saying to Aaron, Make us gods who shall go before us: for this Moses, who led us out from the land of Egypt, we know not what happened to him. And they made a calf in those days, and offered sacrifice to the idol, and rejoiced in the works of their own hands. And God turned away, and gave them up to serve the host of the heaven; as has been written in the book of the prophets: Slain victims and sacrifices you have not brought unto me forty years in the wilderness, O house of Israel. And ye took up the shrine of Moloch, and the star of the god Remphan, images which you made to worship them; and I will transport you beyond Babylon. And the tabernacle of testimony was with our fathers in the wilderness, as the one speaking to Moses commanded him to make it according to the example he had seen; which our fathers receiving, brought in along with Joshua in the dispossession of the nations, whom God drove out, from the face of our fathers, until the days of David, who found favor before God, and asked that he should build a tabernacle for the house of Jacob. But Solomon built a house for him. But the Most High dwelleth not in houses built with hands, as the prophet says, Heaven is my throne, and earth the footstool of my feet: What house will you build for me? says the Lord; Or what shall be the place of my rest? Hath not my hand made all of these things? Ye stiffnecked and uncircumcised in heart and ears, you do always resist the Holy Ghost; as your fathers did, so do ye. Which one of the prophets did your fathers not persecute? and they slew those proclaiming concerning the coming of the Righteous One, whose betrayers and murderers you became: who received the law in the administrations of angels, and did not keep it. And hearing these words, they were cut through their hearts and gnashed their teeth at him. But he, being full of the Holy Ghost, and looking up to heaven, saw the glory of God, and Jesus standing on the right hand of God, and said, Behold, I see the heavens opened, and the Son of man standing on the right hand of God.

And Paul, looking the sanhedrim in the face, said, Men, brethren, I have lived in all good conscience before God unto this day. And the high priest Ananias commanded those standing near him to smite him in the mouth. Then Paul said to him, God is about to smite thee, thou whitewashed wall: indeed thou art sitting judging me according to the law, and dost thou command me to be smitten contrary to the law? read more.
And those standing by said, Do you revile the high priest of God? And Paul said, Brethren, I did not know that he is the high priest; for it is written, You shall not speak evil of the ruler of your people. And Paul knowing that one part of them belongs to the Sadducees, and another to the Pharisees, he cried out in the council, Men, brethren, I am a Pharisee, a son of the Pharisees: concerning the hope and the resurrection of the dead I am judged. And he speaking this, there was a dissension of the Pharisees and Sadducees: and the multitude was divided.

The God of our fathers raised up Jesus, whom you have slain, hanging him on the wood; Him hath God exalted at His own right hand, a Prince and a Savior, to give repentance and remission of sins to Israel.

Think the same thing among yourselves, which is also in Christ Jesus: who, being in the form of God, thought it not usurpation to be equal with God, but he humbled himself, having taken the form of a servant, being in the likeness of men; and having been found in fashion like a man; read more.
he humbled himself, being obedient even unto death, yea, the death of the cross. Therefore God has indeed exalted him, and given him a name above every name; that at the name of Jesus every knee must bow, of things in heaven and things upon the earth and things beneath the earth, and every tongue shall confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, unto the glory of God the Father.

This word you know, which was throughout all Judea, beginning from Galilee, after the baptism which John preached; Jesus, the one from Nazareth, how God anointed Him with the Holy Ghost and power: who went about doing good, and healing all oppressed by the devil: because God is with Him. And we are witnesses in the country of the Jews, and in Jerusalem; whom they even slew, hanging him on the wood. read more.
God raised him on the third day, and gave him to be made manifest; not to all the people, but to the witnesses having been chosen of God, to us, who ate and drank along with him after He arose from the dead: and He commanded us to preach to the people, and to witness that He is the One ordained of God the Judge of the living and the dead. And to Him give all the prophets witness, that every one believing on him receives the remission of sins through His name.

Blessed is the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the one having blessed us with all spiritual blessing in the heavenlies in Christ: as he elected us in himself before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and blameless in his presence. in love having predestinated us unto the adoption of sons unto himself through Jesus Christ, according to the good pleasure of his will, read more.

I am the true vine, and my Father is the husbandman. Every branch in me not producing fruit, He takes it away: and every one producing fruit, He purifies it, that it may produce more fruit. So ye are clean through the word which I have spoken unto you. read more.
Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch is not able to produce fruit of itself, unless it may abide in the vine; so you are not able, unless you may abide in me. I am the vine, and ye are the branches. The one abiding in me, and I in him, the same bears much fruit: because you are not able to do anything without me. If any one may not abide in me, he is cast out as a branch, and withered; and they gather it, and cast it into the fire, and it is burnt. If you may abide in me, and my words may abide in you, ask whatsoever you may wish, and it shall be done unto you. In this my Father is glorified, that you may bear much fruit; and ye shall be my disciples. As the Father loved me, I also loved you: abide in my love. If you may keep my commandments, abide in my love; as I have kept the commandments of my Father, and I abide in His love. I have spoken these things to you, that my joy may be in you, and that your joy may be full. This is my commandment, that you may love one another, as I loved you. No one has greater love than this, that he may lay down his soul for his friends. You are my friends, if you may do those things which I command you. No longer do I call you servants; because the servant knows not what his lord is doing: but I have called you friends; because all things which I heard with my Father, I made known unto you. You did not choose me, but I chose you, and placed you in your position, that you may go forth and bear fruit, and your fruit may abide: in order that He may give you whatsoever you may ask in my name. I command these things unto you, that you must love one another with divine love. If the world hates you, know that it first hated me. If you were of the world, the world would love its own: but because you are not of the world, but I have chosen you out of the world, on this account the world hates you. Remember the word which I spoke to you, The servant is not greater than his lord. If they persecuted me, they will persecute you; if they kept my word, they will also keep yours. But they will do all these things to you on account of my name, because they do not know Him that sent me. If I did not come and speak to them, they had not sin: now they have no excuse for their sin. The one hating me hates my Father also. If I did not works among them which no other did: they had not sin: but now they have both seen and hated both me and my Father. But in order that the word having been written in their law may be fulfilled, That they hated me gratuitously. When the Comforter, whom I will send to you from the Father, the Spirit of truth, who proceeds from the Father, may come, He will witness concerning me, but you indeed are witnesses, because you are with me from the beginning.

And, behold, the angel of the Lord stood over him, and a light shone in the house; and having touched the side of Peter, he raised him up, saying; Rise up quickly. And his chains fell off from his hands. And the angel said to him, Gird thyself, and put on thy sandals. And he thus did. And he says to him, Throw thy cloak about thee, and follow me. And having come out, he was following; and did not know that it is true which was done by the angel; but he was thinking that he saw a vision. And having come through the first guard and the second, they came to the iron gate leading into the city; which opened to them of its own accord: and having come out, they came on to the first street; and the angel immediately departed from him. And Peter coming to himself, said, Now I know truly, that the Lord sent his angel, and delivered me out of the hand of Herod, out of all the expectation of the people of the Jews. And recognizing his whereabouts, he came to the house of Mary, the mother of John, called Mark; where many were assembled and praying. And he knocking at the door of the gate, a damsel, by name Rhoda, came to hearken: and recognizing the voice of Peter, from joy did not open the gate, but running in, she proclaimed that Peter stands before the gate. And they said to her, You are gone mad; but she persisted that it was so. And they said, It is his angel. But Peter remained knocking: and having opened, they saw him, and were astonished. And he, beckoning to them with his hand to keep silent, related how the Lord led him out from the prison: and said, Proclaim these things to James, and the brethren. And having gone out, he departed into another place. And it being day, there was no small commotion among the soldiers, as to where Peter then was. And Herod having sought him, and found him not, condemning the guards, commanded that they should be put to death; and having gone down from Judea to Caesarea, he tarried.

And the high priest and all those being with him, being the sect of the Sadducees, were filled with rage, and laid hands on the apostles, and placed them in the public prison. And the angel of the Lord, having opened the doors of the prison during the night, and leading them out said, read more.
Go, and standing in the temple, speak to the people all the words of this life. And hearing, they came into the temple at daydawn, and were teaching. And the high priest coming and those with him, called together the sanhedrim and all the eldership of the children of Israel, and sent to the prison to bring them. And the officers arriving found them not in the prison; and having returned, reported, saying; We found the prison closed with all safety, and the guards standing at the doors, and having opened, we found no one within. And when the captain of the temple, and the chief priests heard these words, they were at a loss concerning them, what this might be. And a certain one coming announced to them, Behold, the men whom you placed in the prison are standing in the temple and teaching the people. Then the captain along with the officers, having gone away, led them, not with violence, for they feared the people lest they might be stoned. And leading them, they placed them in the council, and the chief priests asked them, saying, With commandment we commanded you not to teach in this name; and behold, you have filled Jerusalem with your teaching; and you are determined to bring upon us the blood of this man. But Peter and the apostles responding said, It behooves us to obey God rather than men. The God of our fathers raised up Jesus, whom you have slain, hanging him on the wood; Him hath God exalted at His own right hand, a Prince and a Savior, to give repentance and remission of sins to Israel. And we are witnesses of these words, and the Holy Ghost, whom God has given to those who obey him. And hearing, they were cut through and were minded to kill them. But a certain Pharisee, Gamaliel by name, a teacher of the law, honorable to all the people, rising in the sanhedrim command them to put the men out for a short time, and he said to them; Israelitish men, take heed to yourselves in reference to these men what you are about to do. For before these days Theudas arose, saying that he was somebody, to whom a number of men, about four hundred, adhered, who were slain, and all, so many as confided in him, were dispersed, and came to nothing. After him Judas the Galilean arose, in the days of the enrollment, and led the people after him; he also perished, and all, so many as confided in him, were scattered abroad. And I now say this to you: Stand aloof from these men, and let them alone; for if this counsel or this work be of men, it will come to naught; but if it be of God, you will not be able to destroy them, lest perchance you may also be found fighting against God. And they obeyed him, and having called the apostles, beating them, they commanded them not to speak in the name of Jesus, and sent them away. Then they departed from the face of the sanhedrim, rejoicing indeed, because they were counted worthy to suffer dishonor for the sake of his name. And all day in the temple, and from house to house, they ceased not teaching and preaching the gospel of Jesus Christ.

assembled in Jerusalem, and Annas the high priest and Caiaphas and John and Alexander, and so many as were of the family of the high priest. And having set them in the midst, asked them, By what power or in what name have you done this? Then Peter being full of the Holy Spirit said to them, Ye rulers of the people and elders, read more.
if we are this day judged for the benefaction of the impotent man, by whom he has been saved, let it be known to you all, and to all the people of Israel, that in the name of Jesus Christ, the Nazarene whom you crucified, whom God raised from the dead, through him this man now stands sound in your presence. This is the stone rejected by your builders, which has become the head of the corner. And there is salvation in no other; for there is no other name given under heaven among men by which it behooveth us to he saved. And seeing the boldness of Peter and John, and apprehending that they are unlearned and ignorant men, they continued to be astonished, and recognized them, that they were with Jesus; and seeing the man who had been healed standing with them, they had nothing to say against it. And having commanded them to depart out from the assembly, they conferred with one another, saying, What can we do to these men? for that a notable miracle has been wrought by them is indeed manifest to all dwelling at Jerusalem, and we are not able to deny it; but that it may extend no further unto the people, let us threaten them to speak no more in this name to any one of men. And having called them, they command them, not at all to speak or teach in the name of Jesus. And Peter and John responding said to them, Whether it is right in the sight of God to hearken unto you rather than God, judge ye; for we are not able not to speak those things which we have seen and heard. And they having threatened them, in addition sent them away, finding nothing to the end that they can punish them, on account of the people, because all continued to glorify God over that which had taken place;

And the Pharisees seeing, said to His disciples, Wherefore does your teacher eat with publicans and sinners? And Jesus hearing said to them, They that are whole have no need of a physician, but they that are sick. But having gone, learned what this is, I wish mercy and not sacrifice: for I came not to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance.

And the scribes and Pharisees, seeing Him eating with the publicans and sinners, were saying to His disciples, Why does He eat and drink with publicans and sinners? Jesus hearing, says to them, They that are whole have no need of a physician, but they that are sick. I came not to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance.

And their scribes and the Pharisees were murmuring to His disciples, saying, Wherefore do you eat and drink with publicans and, sinners? And Jesus responding said to them, They that are whole have not need of a physician, but they that are sick; I came not to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance.

And they speaking to the people, the priests and captain of the temple and the Sadducees rose up against them, being grieved because they were teaching the people and preaching the resurrection of the dead through Jesus; and they laid hands on them and put them in prison till the morrow; for it was already evening.

That which was from the beginning, which we have heard, which we have seen with our eyes, which we have beheld, and our hands have handled, concerning the Word of the life; and the life was made manifest, and we have seen, and we testify, and we proclaim to you the life which is eternal, which was with the Father, and has been made manifest unto us; that which we have seen and heard we also proclaim to you, in order that you may have fellowship with us. And our fellowship is indeed with the Father, and with his Son Jesus Christ.

This word you know, which was throughout all Judea, beginning from Galilee, after the baptism which John preached; Jesus, the one from Nazareth, how God anointed Him with the Holy Ghost and power: who went about doing good, and healing all oppressed by the devil: because God is with Him. And we are witnesses in the country of the Jews, and in Jerusalem; whom they even slew, hanging him on the wood. read more.
God raised him on the third day, and gave him to be made manifest; not to all the people, but to the witnesses having been chosen of God, to us, who ate and drank along with him after He arose from the dead: and He commanded us to preach to the people, and to witness that He is the One ordained of God the Judge of the living and the dead. And to Him give all the prophets witness, that every one believing on him receives the remission of sins through His name.

There was a man having been sent from God, whose name was John; The same came for a witness, that he might bear witness concerning the light, in order that all through him might believe. He was not the light, but came that he might bear witness concerning the light. read more.
That was the true light, which lighteth every man, coming into the world. He was in the world, and the world was made by Him, and the world knew Him not. He came unto His own, and His own received Him not. But so many as received Him, to them gave He the right to become the children of God, to those believing on His name: who were born not of bloods, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God. The Word was made flesh, and tented among us (and we beheld His glory, the glory as of the only begotten with the Father), full of grace and truth. John beareth witness concerning Him, and cried out saying; This is He of whom I spoke, He that cometh after me has been before me:

in order that all may honor the Son, as they may honor the Father. He that honoreth not the Son honoreth not the Father who sent Him. Truly, truly, I say unto you, that every one hearing my word, and believing on Him that sent me hath eternal life, and doth not come into judgment, but has passed out of death into life. Truly, truly, I say unto you, that the hour cometh and now is, when the dead will hear the voice of the Son of God; and having heard will live. read more.
For as the Father hath life in Himself, so also He has given to His Son to have life also in Himself. And He hath given Him authority to execute the judgment, because He is the Son of man. Do not be astonished at this: because the hour cometh, in which all who are in their graves will hear His voice, and come forth; those having done good, unto the resurrection of life; and those having done evil, unto the resurrection of judgment. I am not able to do anything of myself: as I hear, I judge: and my judgment is righteous; because I do not seek my own will, but the will of the One having sent me. If I testify concerning myself, my testimony is not true. There is another who testifieth concerning me; and you know that the testimony which He testifies concerning me is true. You sent to John, and he witnessed to the truth: but I do not receive the witness with man: but I speak these things that you may be saved. He was a bright and shining light: and you were willing to rejoice for an hour in that light. But I have a testimony greater than that of John: for the works that the Father hath given me that I may perfect them, these works which I do, testify concerning me, that the Father hath sent me. And the Father having sent me, He hath testified concerning me: never have you heard His voice, neither have you seen His face: and you have not His word abiding in you: because you do not believe Him whom He has sent. Search the Scriptures, because in them ye think ye have eternal life; and they are they which testify concerning me; and you do not wish to come unto me, in order that you may have life. I do not receive glory with men; but I know you that you have not the love of God in you. I have come in the name of my Father, and you do not receive me: if another may come in his own name, you will receive him. How are you able to believe, receiving glory from one another, and do not seek the glory which is with God only? Do not think that I will accuse you to the Father; there is one accusing you, in whom you have hoped. For if you were believing Moses, you were believing me; for he wrote concerning me. For if you do not believe his writings, how will you believe my words?



Therefore indeed having assembled, they asked Him saying, Lord, do you at this time restore the kingdom to Israel? He said to them; It is not your province, to know the times or seasons, which the Father placed in His own authority. But you shall receive the power of the Holy Ghost having come upon you, and shall be my witnesses both in Jerusalem, and all Judea, and in Samaria, and into the extremity of the earth. read more.
And having spoken these words, they looking, He was taken up, and a cloud received Him from their eyes. And while they were gazing up into the heaven, He going, and behold, two men stood by them in white garments, who also said, Ye Galilean men, why stand you looking up into the heaven? this same Jesus, the One having been received up into the heaven, will so come in the manner in which you saw Him going up into the heaven.

And he holding on to Peter and John; all the people ran together to them in the porch called Solomon's, exceedingly astonished. And Peter seeing them, responded to the people; Israelitish men, why are you astonished at this, or why do you look upon us as having by our own power or holiness, made this man to walk about? The God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob, and the God of our fathers, hath glorified his Child, Jesus, who you indeed delivered up and denied before the face of Pilate having decided to release Him. read more.
And you denied the Holy and Righteous One, and ask that a man who was a murderer should be delivered unto you, and you slew the Prince of life, whom God raised from the dead, whose witnesses we are.

Simon Peter, the servant of God and apostle of Jesus Christ, to those receiving like precious faith with us in the righteousness of our God and our Saviour Jesus Christ. Grace to you and peace be multiplied in the perfect knowledge of Jesus Christ, our Lord. As His divine power having given unto us all things which appertain to life and godliness, through the perfect knowledge of the one having called us to his own glory and virtue: read more.
through which precious and greatest promises have been given unto us; that through these you may be partakers of the divine nature, escaping the corruption that is in the world through lust. And in harmony with this same thing also, add to your faith heroism; and to heroism, knowledge; and to knowledge holiness; and to holiness patience; and patience, godliness; and to godliness brotherly kindness; and to brotherly kindness divine love. For these things, being in you and overflowing, render you neither barren nor unfruitful in the perfect knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ; for he unto whom these things are not present is blind, not seeing afar off, having received the forgetfulness of his purgation from his old sins. Therefore, brethren, be the more diligent to make your calling and election sure: for doing these things you can never fall. For in this way an entrance will be administered unto you abundantly into the eternal kingdom of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. Therefore I will be about to always remind you concerning these things, even though knowing them, and being established in the present truth. But I consider it righteous, so long as I am in this tabernacle, to stir you up by remembrance; knowing that the laying aside of my tabernacle is swift, as our Lord Jesus Christ also showed to me. And I will endeavor to have each one of you after my departure make mention of these things. For not having followed cunningly devised fables, have we made known to you the power and coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, but having been eyewitnesses of his majesty.

The Revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave to him, to show unto his servants the thing which it behooves speedily to come to pass; and he signified having sent by his angel to his servant John; who witnessed the word of God, and the testimony of Jesus Christ, as to so many things as he saw.


I am the true vine, and my Father is the husbandman. Every branch in me not producing fruit, He takes it away: and every one producing fruit, He purifies it, that it may produce more fruit. So ye are clean through the word which I have spoken unto you. read more.
Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch is not able to produce fruit of itself, unless it may abide in the vine; so you are not able, unless you may abide in me. I am the vine, and ye are the branches. The one abiding in me, and I in him, the same bears much fruit: because you are not able to do anything without me. If any one may not abide in me, he is cast out as a branch, and withered; and they gather it, and cast it into the fire, and it is burnt. If you may abide in me, and my words may abide in you, ask whatsoever you may wish, and it shall be done unto you. In this my Father is glorified, that you may bear much fruit; and ye shall be my disciples. As the Father loved me, I also loved you: abide in my love. If you may keep my commandments, abide in my love; as I have kept the commandments of my Father, and I abide in His love. I have spoken these things to you, that my joy may be in you, and that your joy may be full. This is my commandment, that you may love one another, as I loved you. No one has greater love than this, that he may lay down his soul for his friends. You are my friends, if you may do those things which I command you. No longer do I call you servants; because the servant knows not what his lord is doing: but I have called you friends; because all things which I heard with my Father, I made known unto you. You did not choose me, but I chose you, and placed you in your position, that you may go forth and bear fruit, and your fruit may abide: in order that He may give you whatsoever you may ask in my name. I command these things unto you, that you must love one another with divine love. If the world hates you, know that it first hated me. If you were of the world, the world would love its own: but because you are not of the world, but I have chosen you out of the world, on this account the world hates you. Remember the word which I spoke to you, The servant is not greater than his lord. If they persecuted me, they will persecute you; if they kept my word, they will also keep yours. But they will do all these things to you on account of my name, because they do not know Him that sent me. If I did not come and speak to them, they had not sin: now they have no excuse for their sin. The one hating me hates my Father also. If I did not works among them which no other did: they had not sin: but now they have both seen and hated both me and my Father. But in order that the word having been written in their law may be fulfilled, That they hated me gratuitously. When the Comforter, whom I will send to you from the Father, the Spirit of truth, who proceeds from the Father, may come, He will witness concerning me, but you indeed are witnesses, because you are with me from the beginning.

The God of our fathers raised up Jesus, whom you have slain, hanging him on the wood; Him hath God exalted at His own right hand, a Prince and a Savior, to give repentance and remission of sins to Israel. And we are witnesses of these words, and the Holy Ghost, whom God has given to those who obey him.

And now, behold, I go to Jerusalem bound in spirit, not knowing the things which shall come upon me in it: except that the Holy Ghost in every city witnesses to me, saying that bonds and tribulations await me.


And the Holy Ghost truly does witness to us: for afterward he said, Verse ConceptsThe Witness Of The SpiritTaught By The Spirit

Who is the one conquering the world, except the one believing that Jesus is the Son of God? He is the one having come through water and blood, Jesus Christ; not by water only, but by water and blood; the Spirit is the one who bears witness, because the Spirit is the truth. Because there are three who are bearing witness,
