Acts 7:48-58

48 Yet the Most High does not dwell in buildings erected by men's hands. But, as the Prophet declares,
49 "`The sky is My throne, and earth is the footstool for My feet. What kind of house will you build for Me, says the Lord, or what resting place shall I have?
50 Did not My hand form this universe.'
51 "O stiff-necked men, uncircumcised in heart and ears, you also are continually at strife with the Holy Spirit--just as your forefathers were.
52 Which of the Prophets did not your forefathers persecute? Yes, they killed those who announced beforehand the advent of the righteous One, whose betrayers and murderers you have now become--
53 you who received the Law given through angels, and yet have not obeyed it."
54 As they listened to these words, they became infuriated and gnashed their teeth at him.
55 But, full of the Holy Spirit and looking up to Heaven, Stephen saw the glory of God, and Jesus standing at God's right hand.
56 "I can see Heaven wide open," he said, "and the Son of Man standing at God's right hand."
57 Upon this, with a loud outcry they stopped their ears, rushed upon Stephen in a body,
58 dragged him out of the city, and stoned him, the witnesses throwing off their outer garments and giving them into the care of a young man called Saul.
