| + | #REDIRECT [[Acts 8 King James Version 2016]] |
| - | * [[Acts 8:1 (TRV)|1]] Now Saul was consenting to his death. And at that time there was a great persecution against the church which was at Jerusalem; and they were all scattered throughout the regions of Judea and Samaria, except the apostles.
| + | |
| - | * [[Acts 8:2 (TRV)|2]] And devout men carried Stephen ''to his burial'', and made great lamentation over him.
| + | |
| - | * [[Acts 8:3 (TRV)|3]] As for Saul, he made havoc of the church, entering into every house, and dragging men and women away, committing ''them'' to prison.
| + | |
| - | * [[Acts 8:4 (TRV)|4]] Therefore those who were scattered went everywhere preaching the word.
| + | |
| - | * [[Acts 8:5 (TRV)|5]] Then Philip went down to the city of Samaria and preached Christ to them.
| + | |
| - | * [[Acts 8:6 (TRV)|6]] And the people with one accord heeded the things spoken by Philip, hearing and seeing the miracles which he did.
| + | |
| - | * [[Acts 8:7 (TRV)|7]] Because, unclean spirits, shouting with a loud voice, came out of many who were possessed ''with them''; and many who were paralyzed and lame were healed.
| + | |
| - | * [[Acts 8:8 (TRV)|8]] And there was great joy in that city.
| + | |
| - | * [[Acts 8:9 (TRV)|9]] But there was a certain man called Simon, who previously practiced sorcery in the same city and seduced the people of Samaria, claiming that he was some great one,
| + | |
| - | * [[Acts 8:10 (TRV)|10]] to whom they all gave heed, from the least to the greatest, saying, “This man is the great power of God.”
| + | |
| - | * [[Acts 8:11 (TRV)|11]] And they heeded him because he had seduced them with his sorceries for a long time.
| + | |
| - | * [[Acts 8:12 (TRV)|12]] But when they believed Philip as he preached the things concerning the kingdom of God and the name of Jesus Christ, both men and women were baptized.
| + | |
| - | * [[Acts 8:13 (TRV)|13]] Then Simon himself also believed; and when he was baptized he continued with Philip, and was amazed, seeing the miracles and signs which were done.
| + | |
| - | * [[Acts 8:14 (TRV)|14]] Now when the apostles who were at Jerusalem heard that Samaria had received the word of God, they sent Peter and John to them,
| + | |
| - | * [[Acts 8:15 (TRV)|15]] who, when they had come down, prayed for them that they might receive the Holy Spirit.
| + | |
| - | * [[Acts 8:16 (TRV)|16]] Because as yet He had fallen upon none of them. They had only been baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus.
| + | |
| - | * [[Acts 8:17 (TRV)|17]] Then they laid ''their'' hands on them, and they received the Holy Spirit.
| + | |
| - | * [[Acts 8:18 (TRV)|18]] And when Simon saw that through the laying on of the apostles’ hands the Holy Spirit was given, he offered them money,
| + | |
| - | * [[Acts 8:19 (TRV)|19]] saying, “Give me this authority also, that whoever I lay hands upon, they may receive the Holy Spirit.”
| + | |
| - | * [[Acts 8:20 (TRV)|20]] But Peter said to him, “Your money perish with you, because you thought that the gift of God could be purchased with money!
| + | |
| - | * [[Acts 8:21 (TRV)|21]] You have neither part nor portion in this matter, because your heart is not right in the sight of God.
| + | |
| - | * [[Acts 8:22 (TRV)|22]] Therefore repent of this your wickedness, and ask God if perhaps the thought of your heart may be forgiven you.
| + | |
| - | * [[Acts 8:23 (TRV)|23]] Because I perceive that you are poisoned by bitterness and bound by iniquity.”
| + | |
| - | * [[Acts 8:24 (TRV)|24]] Then Simon replied and said, “Pray to the Lord for me, that none of the things which you have spoken should come upon me.”
| + | |
| - | * [[Acts 8:25 (TRV)|25]] So when they had testified and preached the word of the Lord, they returned to Jerusalem, and preached the gospel in many villages of the Samaritans.
| + | |
| - | * [[Acts 8:26 (TRV)|26]] Now an angel of the Lord spoke to Philip, saying, “Arise and go toward the south along the road which goes down from Jerusalem to Gaza, which is desert.”
| + | |
| - | * [[Acts 8:27 (TRV)|27]] So he arose and went. And behold, a man of Ethiopia, a eunuch of great authority under Candace the queen of the Ethiopians, who had charge of all her treasury, and had come to Jerusalem to worship,
| + | |
| - | * [[Acts 8:28 (TRV)|28]] was returning. And sitting in his chariot, ''he was'' reading Isaiah the prophet.
| + | |
| - | * [[Acts 8:29 (TRV)|29]] Then the Spirit said to Philip, “Go near and join yourself to this chariot.”
| + | |
| - | * [[Acts 8:30 (TRV)|30]] So Philip ran over to ''him'', and heard him reading the prophet Isaiah, and said, “Do you understand what you are reading?”
| + | |
| - | * [[Acts 8:31 (TRV)|31]] And he said, “How can I, unless someone guides me?” And he wanted Philip to come up and sit with him.
| + | |
| - | * [[Acts 8:32 (TRV)|32]] The place in the Scripture which he read was this: “He was led as a sheep to the slaughter; and as a lamb before its shearer is silent, so He did not open His mouth.
| + | |
| - | * [[Acts 8:33 (TRV)|33]] In His humiliation His justice was taken away, and who will declare His generation? Because His life is taken from the earth.”
| + | |
| - | * [[Acts 8:34 (TRV)|34]] So the eunuch replied to Philip and said, “I ask you, of whom does the prophet say this, of himself or of some other man?”
| + | |
| - | * [[Acts 8:35 (TRV)|35]] Then Philip opened his mouth, and beginning at this Scripture, preached Jesus to him.
| + | |
| - | * [[Acts 8:36 (TRV)|36]] Now as they went on their way, they came to some water. And the eunuch said, “Look, ''here'' is water. What hinders me from being baptized?”
| + | |
| - | * [[Acts 8:37 (TRV)|37]] Then Philip said, “If you believe with all your heart, you may.” And he replied and said, “I believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God.”
| + | |
| - | * [[Acts 8:38 (TRV)|38]] So he commanded the chariot to stand still. And both Philip and the eunuch went down into the water, and he baptized him.
| + | |
| - | * [[Acts 8:39 (TRV)|39]] Now when they came up out of the water, the Spirit of the Lord caught Philip away, so that the eunuch did not see him any longer; and he went on his way rejoicing.
| + | |
| - | * [[Acts 8:40 (TRV)|40]] But Philip was found at Azotus. And passing through, he preached in all the cities until he came to Caesarea.
