Peter Preaches to Cornelius' Household

34 Then Peter opened his mouth and said, “Now I truly understand that God shows no partiality, 35 but in every nation anyone who fears him and does what is right is acceptable to him. 36 You yourselves know the message he sent to the sons of Israel, preaching the good news of peace through Jesus Christ, who is Lord of all, 37 the message that spread throughout all Judea, beginning from Galilee after the baptism that John preached: 38 how God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Spirit and power, who then went around doing good and healing all who were oppressed by the devil, because God was with him. 39 We are witnesses of everything he did both in the country of the Jews and in Jerusalem. They put him to death by hanging him on a cross, 40 but God raised him up on the third day and allowed him to be seen, 41 not by all the people, but by us, the witnesses who had been chosen beforehand by God, who ate and drank with him after he rose from the dead. 42 He commanded us to preach to the people and to testify that he is the one who has been appointed by God as judge of the living and the dead. 43 All the prophets testify about him that everyone who believes in him receives remission of sins through his name.”
