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" />

Then you&#8217;re not that Egyptian who started a rebellion<n id="1" /> and led the four thousand men of the &#8216;Assassins&#8217;<n id="2" /> into the wilderness<n id="3" /> some time ago?&#8221;<n id="4" />

Those who were with me saw the light, but did not understand<n id="1" /> the voice of the one who was speaking to me.

Since I could not see because of<n id="1" /> the brilliance<n id="2" /> of that light, I came to Damascus led by the hand of<n id="3" /> those who were with me.

and saw the Lord<n id="1" /> saying to me, &#8216;Hurry and get out of Jerusalem quickly, because they will not accept your testimony about me.&#8217;

When neither sun nor stars appeared for many days and a violent<n id="1" /> storm continued to batter us,<n id="2" /> we finally abandoned all hope of being saved.<n id="3" />p>

Paul said to the centurion<n id="1" /> and the soldiers, &#8220;Unless these men stay with the ship, you<n id="2" /> cannot be saved.&#8221;

But Peter said, &#8220;I have no silver or gold,<n id="1" /> but what I do have I give you. In the name<n id="2" /> of Jesus Christ<n id="3" /> the Nazarene, stand up and<n id="4" /> walk!&#8221;

And there is salvation in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given among people<n id="1" /> by which we must<n id="2" /> be saved.&#8221;p>

saying, &#8220;What should we do with these men? For it is plain<n id="1" /> to all who live in Jerusalem that a notable miraculous sign<n id="2" /> has come about through them,<n id="3" /> and we cannot deny it.

Before it was sold,<n id="1" /> did it not<n id="2" /> belong to you? And when it was sold, was the money<n id="3" /> not at your disposal? How have you thought up this deed in your heart?<n id="4" /> You have not lied to people<n id="5" /> but to God!&#8221;p>

Which of the prophets did your ancestors<n id="1" /> not persecute?<n id="2" /> They<n id="3" /> killed those who foretold long ago the coming of the Righteous One,<n id="4" /> whose betrayers and murderers you have now become!<n id="5" />

Now the passage of scripture the man<n id="1" /> was reading was this:p> <p class="otpoetry">&#8220;<b><i>He was led like a sheep to slaughter,i>b>p> <p class="otpoetry"><b><i>and like a lamb before its shearer is silent,i>b>p> <p class="otpoetry"><b><i>so he didi>b><n id="2" /> <i><b>not open his mouthb>.i>p>
