the God of our fathers raised up Jesus, whom ye slew, and hanged on a tree. him hath God rais'd by his power to be the author of salvation, by giving repentance to Israel, and the remission of their sins. and we are his witnesses in what we say, and so is the holy spirit, whom God hath given to those that obey him.

I tell you likewise, ask, and it shall be given: seek, and ye shall find: knock, and the door shall be opened. for every one that asketh, receives: he that seeketh, finds: and he that knocks has admittance. what father among you would give his son a stone, when he asketh for bread? or if for a fish, instead of a fish would he give him a serpent? read more.
or instead of an egg will he offer him a scorpion? if ye then, wicked as ye are, know how to give what is proper to your children: how much more shall your heavenly father give the holy spirit to them that ask him?

The apostles therefore, and the presbyters assembled to deliberate upon this affair. and after the question had been much canvass'd, Peter rose up, and said, my brethren, you know that a considerable time since God chose me from among you to preach the gospel to the Gentiles, and bring them to the faith. God who knows their hearts has granted them a testimonial, by giving them the holy spirit, even as he did to us:

nevertheless, I tell you the truth; it is expedient for you that I go away: for if I do not go away, the advocate will not come unto you; but if I depart, I will send him to you. Verse Concepts

but about the middle of the feast, Jesus went publickly into the temple, and taught. at which the Jews were surprized, saying, how came be acquainted with the scriptures, a man of no education? Jesus answered them, the doctrine I deliver is not my own, but his that sent me. read more.
if any man is inclin'd to do his will, he shall know whether the doctrine be from God, or whether I speak from my self. he that speaks from himself, has a view to his own glory: but he that has a view to his glory that sent him, deserves credit, and is a stranger to all imposture. was it not Moses who gave you the law, and yet none of you observe that law? for what do ye attempt to kill me? the people answered, saying, you are mad: who attempts to kill you? Jesus answered them, I perform'd one single miracle on the sabbath, and does that alarm you? Moses enjoin'd you circumcision (or rather not Moses, but the patriarchs) accordingly you circumcise a man on the sabbath-day. if to avoid the violation of the Mosaic law, a man be exposed to circumcision on the sabbath-day, are ye angry at me, because I cured a man, whose whole body was indisposed on the sabbath-day? judge not according to appearances, but judge according to equity. Then some that belong'd to Jerusalem, said, is not this he whom they seek to kill? yet there he is talking publickly without any opposition: are not the rulers convinc'd that he is the Messiah? however, we know from what quarter this man comes: but when Christ comes it will be unknown whence he came. Jesus then pursuing his discourse in the temple, rais'd his voice, and said, you know both who I am, and whence I am: however, I am not come of my self, but he that sent me is worthy of belief, him you are unacquainted with. but I know him, for I am from him, and he hath sent me. then they design'd to seize him: but no man laid hands on him, because his hour was not yet come. besides many of the people believed on him, and said, when Christ comes, will he do more miracles than this man hath done? (the Pharisees being inform'd what the people rumour'd concerning him, they and the chief priests sent their officers to seize him.) then said Jesus, I shall be with you but for a little time, and then I shall go to him that sent me. ye shall seek me, but shall not find me: and where I shall go, thither ye cannot come. upon which the Jews said among themselves, whither will he go, that we cannot find him? will he go to the dispersed Jews among the Greeks, and instruct the Greeks? what does he mean by saying, "ye shall seek me, and shall not find me: and where I go, thither ye cannot come?" In the last day, the most solemn day of the feast, Jesus being there, raised his voice, and said, if any man thirst, let him come to me, and drink. he that believeth on me, as the scripture hath said, out of his heart shall flow rivers of living water. (but this he meant of the spirit, which they that believed on him, should receive: for the spirit was not yet given, because Jesus was not yet glorified.) many of the people therefore, who heard this discourse, said, this man is certainly a prophet. some said, this is the Messias. but said others, shall the Messias come out of Galilee? hath not the scripture said, that the Messiah is to rise out of the family of David, and out of Bethlehem, the village where David was born? so that the people were divided in their opinions about him. and some of them had a mind to seize him; but nobody laid hands on him. when the officers return'd to the chief priests and Pharisees, they asked them, why have ye not brought him? the officers answered, never did man speak like this man. upon which the Pharisees answered, are ye also seduced? have any of the rulers, or of the Pharisees believed on him? but the populace, who are ignorant of the law, are such wretches. thereupon Nicodemus, he that came to Jesus by night, and was then present, said to them, said to them, doth our law condemn any man before he is heard, without knowing the fact? they answered him, are you also of Galilee? search the scriptures, and you will not find that a prophet did ever arise out of Galilee. and every man went to his own house.
