Acts 10:38

36 The word which God sent to the¹ children of Israel, ^apreaching peace through Jesus Christ—^bHe is Lord of all—

37 that word you know, which was proclaimed throughout all Judea, and ^abegan from Galilee after the baptism which John preached:

38 how ^aGod anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Spirit and with power, who ^bwent about doing good and healing all who were oppressed by the devil, ^cfor God was with Him.

39 And we are ^awitnesses of all things which He did both in the land of the Jews and in Jerusalem, whom¹ they ^bkilled by hanging on a tree.

40 Him ^aGod raised up on the third day, and showed Him openly,

41 ^anot to all the people, but to witnesses chosen before by God, even to us ^bwho ate and drank with Him after He arose from the dead.

42 And ^aHe commanded us to preach to the people, and to testify ^bthat it is He who was ordained by God to be Judge ^cof the living and the dead.

43 ^aTo Him all the prophets witness that, through His name, ^bwhoever believes in Him will receive ^cremission of sins.”
