Deuteronomy 13:1-5
13:1 Suppose a prophet or one who foretells by dreams
should appear among you and show you a sign or wonder,
13:2 and the sign or wonder should come to pass concerning what he said to you, namely, “Let us follow other gods” – gods whom you have not previously known – “and let us serve them.”
13:3 You must not listen to the words of that prophet or dreamer,
for the
Lord your God will be testing you to see if you love him
with all your mind and being.
13:4 You must follow the
Lord your God and revere only him; and you must observe his commandments, obey him, serve him, and remain loyal to him.
13:5 As for that prophet or dreamer,
he must be executed because he encouraged rebellion against the
Lord your God who brought you from the land of Egypt, redeeming you from that place of slavery, and because he has tried to entice you from the way the
Lord your God has commanded you to go. In this way you must purge out evil from within.
Acts 13:8
13:8 But the magician Elymas
(for that is the way his name is translated)
opposed them, trying to turn the proconsul
away from the faith.
Acts 13:2
13:2 While they were serving
the Lord and fasting, the Holy Spirit said, “Set apart
for me Barnabas and Saul for the work to which I have called them.”
Acts 2:17-18
2:17 ‘And in the last days it will be,’ God says,
‘that I will pour out my Spirit on all people,
and your sons and your daughters will prophesy,
and your young men will see visions,
and your old men will dream dreams.
2:18 Even on my servants, both men and women,
I will pour out my Spirit in those days, and they will prophesy.
Acts 3:6-8
3:6 But Peter said, “I have no silver or gold,
but what I do have I give you. In the name
of Jesus Christ
the Nazarene, stand up and
walk!”
3:7 Then
Peter
took hold
of him by the right hand and raised him up, and at once the man’s
feet and ankles were made strong.
3:8 He
jumped up,
stood and began walking around, and he entered the temple courts
with them, walking and leaping and praising God.
