One day at three o'clock in the afternoon, Peter and John were on their way into the Temple for prayer meeting.
2
At the same time there was a man crippled from birth being carried up. Every day he was set down at the Temple gate, the one named Beautiful, to beg from those going into the Temple.
3
When he saw Peter and John about to enter the Temple, he asked for a handout.
4
Peter, with John at his side, looked him straight in the eye and said, "Look here."
5
He looked up, expecting to get something from them.
6
Peter said, "I don't have a nickel to my name, but what I do have, I give you: In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, walk!"
7
He grabbed him by the right hand and pulled him up. In an instant his feet and ankles became firm.
8
He jumped to his feet and walked.
