About Jesus of Nazareth, how God gave the Holy Spirit to him, with power: and how he went about doing good and making well all who were troubled by evil spirits, for God was with him.
39
And we are witnesses of all the things which he did in the country of the Jews and in Jerusalem; whom they put to death, hanging him on a tree.
40
On the third day God gave him back to life, and let him be seen,
41
Not by all the people, but by witnesses marked out before by God, even by us, who took food and drink with him after he came back from the dead.
42
And he gave us orders to give news of this to the people, and to give public witness that this is he whom God has made judge of the living and the dead.
43
To him all the prophets give witness, that through his name everyone who has faith in him will have forgiveness of sins.
44
While Peter was saying these words, the Holy Spirit came on all those who were hearing the word.
45
And the Jews of the faith, who had come with Peter, were full of wonder, because the Holy Spirit was given to the Gentiles,
46
And they were talking in tongues, and giving glory to God. Then Peter said,
47
Will any man say that these may not have baptism who have been given the Holy Spirit as we have?
48
And he gave orders for them to have baptism in the name of Jesus Christ. Then they kept him with them for some days.
