So Peter opened his mouth and said: “Truly I understand that
God shows no partiality, but in every nation anyone who fears him and does what
is right is acceptable to him. As for the word that he sent to Israel,
preaching good news of peace through Jesus Christ (he is Lord of all), you
yourselves know what happened throughout all Judea, beginning from Galilee
after the baptism that John proclaimed: how God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with
the Holy Spirit and with power. He went about doing good and healing all who
were oppressed by the devil, for God was with him. And we are witnesses of all
that he did both in the country of the Jews and in Jerusalem. They put him to
death by hanging him on a tree, but God raised him on the third day and made
him to appear, not to all the people but to us who had been chosen by God as
witnesses, who ate and drank with him after he rose from the dead. And he
commanded us to preach to the people and to testify that he is the one
appointed by God to be judge of the living and the dead. To him all the
prophets bear witness that everyone who believes in him receives forgiveness of
sins through his name.” Acts 10:34-43
