<p class="bodytext">Then the eunuch said<n id="1" /> to Philip, &#8220;Please tell me,<n id="2" /> who is the prophet saying this about &#8211; himself or someone else?&#8221;<n id="3" />

For<n id="1" /> we are in danger of being charged with rioting<n id="2" /> today, since there is no cause we can give to explain<n id="3" /> this disorderly gathering.&#8221;<n id="4" />

As<n id="1" /> I was en route and near Damascus,<n id="2" /> about noon a very bright<n id="3" /> light from heaven<n id="4" /> suddenly flashed<n id="5" /> around me.

other than<n id="1" /> this one thing<n id="2" /> I shouted out while I stood before<n id="3" /> them: &#8216;I am on trial before you today concerning the resurrection of the dead.&#8217;&#8221;<n id="4" />p>

Rather they had several points of disagreement<n id="1" /> with him about their own religion<n id="2" /> and about a man named Jesus<n id="3" /> who was dead, whom Paul claimed<n id="4" /> to be alive.

Because I was at a loss<n id="1" /> how I could investigate these matters,<n id="2" /> I asked if he were willing to go to Jerusalem and be tried<n id="3" /> there on these charges.<n id="4" />

These two<n id="1" /> went down and prayed for them so that they would receive the Holy Spirit.

<p class="bodytext">Both the apostles and the elders met together to deliberate<n id="1" /> about this matter.

<p class="bodytext">At<n id="1" /> that time<n id="2" /> a great disturbance<n id="3" /> took place concerning the Way.<n id="4" />

nor can they prove<n id="1" /> to you the things<n id="2" /> they are accusing me of doing.<n id="3" />

They replied,<n id="1" /> &#8220;We have received no letters from Judea about you, nor have any of the brothers come from there<n id="2" /> and reported or said anything bad about you.

<t /><p class="bodytext">I wrote<n id="1" /> the former<n id="2" /> account,<n id="3" /> Theophilus,<n id="4" /> about all that Jesus began to do and teach

While Peter was still thinking seriously about<n id="1" /> the vision, the Spirit said to him, &#8220;Look! Three men are looking for you.

When they had accomplished<n id="1" /> everything that was written<n id="2" /> about him, they took him down<n id="3" /> from the cross<n id="4" /> and placed him<n id="5" /> in a tomb.

<p class="bodytext">Now when they heard about<n id="1" /> the resurrection from the dead, some began to scoff,<n id="2" /> but others said, &#8220;We will hear you again about this.&#8221;

I found he<n id="1" /> was accused with reference to controversial questions<n id="2" /> about their law, but no charge against him deserved death or imprisonment.<n id="3" />

When you examine<n id="1" /> him yourself, you will be able to learn from him<n id="2" /> about all these things we are accusing him of doing.&#8221;<n id="3" />

When his accusers stood up, they did not charge<n id="1" /> him with any of the evil deeds I had suspected.<n id="2" />

<p class="bodytext">&#8220;Regarding all the things I have been accused of by the Jews, King Agrippa,<n id="1" /> I consider myself fortunate that I am about to make my defense before you today,

proclaiming the kingdom of God and teaching about the Lord Jesus Christ<n id="1" /> with complete boldness<n id="2" /> and without restriction.<n id="3" />p>
