Acts 26:19

17 I will deliver you from the Jewish people, as well as from the Gentiles, ^ato whom I now send you,

18 ^ato open their eyes, in order ^bto turn them from darkness to light, and from the power of Satan to God, ^cthat they may receive forgiveness of sins and ^dan inheritance among those who are ^esanctified by faith in Me.’

Paul’s Post-Conversion Life

19 “Therefore, King Agrippa, I was not disobedient to the heavenly vision,

20 but ^adeclared first to those in Damascus and in Jerusalem, and throughout all the region of Judea, and then to the Gentiles, that they should repent, turn to God, and do ^bworks befitting repentance.

21 For these reasons the Jews seized me in the temple and tried to kill me.

22 Therefore, having obtained help from God, to this day I stand, witnessing both to small and great, saying no other things than those ^awhich the prophets and ^bMoses said would come—
