Acts 10:1-48
1
There was a man in Caesarea named Cornelius, who was a captain in the Roman army regiment called "The Italian Regiment."
2
He was a religious man; he and his whole family worshiped God. He also did much to help the Jewish poor people and was constantly praying to God.
3
It was about three o'clock one afternoon when he had a vision, in which he clearly saw an angel of God come in and say to him, "Cornelius!"
4
He stared at the angel in fear and said, "What is it, sir?" The angel answered, "God is pleased with your prayers and works of charity, and is ready to answer you.
5
And now send some men to Joppa for a certain man whose full name is Simon Peter.
6
He is a guest in the home of a tanner of leather named Simon, who lives by the sea."
7
Then the angel went away, and Cornelius called two of his house servants and a soldier, a religious man who was one of his personal attendants.
8
He told them what had happened and sent them off to Joppa.
9
The next day, as they were on their way and coming near Joppa, Peter went up on the roof of the house about noon in order to pray.
10
He became hungry and wanted something to eat; while the food was being prepared, he had a vision.
11
He saw heaven opened and something coming down that looked like a large sheet being lowered by its four corners to the earth.
12
In it were all kinds of animals, reptiles, and wild birds.
13
A voice said to him, "Get up, Peter; kill and eat!"
14
But Peter said, "Certainly not, Lord! I have never eaten anything ritually unclean or defiled."
15
The voice spoke to him again, "Do not consider anything unclean that God has declared clean."
16
This happened three times, and then the thing was taken back up into heaven.
17
While Peter was wondering about the meaning of this vision, the men sent by Cornelius had learned where Simon's house was, and they were now standing in front of the gate.
18
They called out and asked, "Is there a guest here by the name of Simon Peter?"
19
Peter was still trying to understand what the vision meant, when the Spirit said, "Listen! Three men are here looking for you.
20
So get ready and go down, and do not hesitate to go with them, for I have sent them."
21
So Peter went down and said to the men, "I am the man you are looking for. Why have you come?"
22
"Captain Cornelius sent us," they answered. "He is a good man who worships God and is highly respected by all the Jewish people. An angel of God told him to invite you to his house, so that he could hear what you have to say."
23
Peter invited the men in and had them spend the night there. The next day he got ready and went with them; and some of the believers from Joppa went along with him.
24
The following day he arrived in Caesarea, where Cornelius was waiting for him, together with relatives and close friends that he had invited.
25
As Peter was about to go in, Cornelius met him, fell at his feet, and bowed down before him.
26
But Peter made him rise. "Stand up," he said, "I myself am only a man."
27
Peter kept on talking to Cornelius as he went into the house, where he found many people gathered.
28
He said to them, "You yourselves know very well that a Jew is not allowed by his religion to visit or associate with Gentiles. But God has shown me that I must not consider any person ritually unclean or defiled.
29
And so when you sent for me, I came without any objection. I ask you, then, why did you send for me?"
30
Cornelius said, "It was about this time three days ago that I was praying in my house at three o'clock in the afternoon. Suddenly a man dressed in shining clothes stood in front of me
31
and said: 'Cornelius! God has heard your prayer and has taken notice of your works of charity.
32
Send someone to Joppa for a man whose full name is Simon Peter. He is a guest in the home of Simon the tanner of leather, who lives by the sea.'
33
And so I sent for you at once, and you have been good enough to come. Now we are all here in the presence of God, waiting to hear anything that the Lord has instructed you to say."
34
Peter began to speak: "I now realize that it is true that God treats everyone on the same basis.

39
We are witnesses of everything that he did in the land of Israel and in Jerusalem. Then they put him to death by nailing him to a cross.
40
But God raised him from death three days later and caused him to appear,
41
not to everyone, but only to the witnesses that God had already chosen, that is, to us who ate and drank with him after he rose from death.
42
And he commanded us to preach the gospel to the people and to testify that he is the one whom God has appointed judge of the living and the dead.
43
All the prophets spoke about him, saying that all who believe in him will have their sins forgiven through the power of his name."
44
While Peter was still speaking, the Holy Spirit came down on all those who were listening to his message.
45
The Jewish believers who had come from Joppa with Peter were amazed that God had poured out his gift of the Holy Spirit on the Gentiles also.
46
For they heard them speaking in strange tongues and praising God's greatness. Peter spoke up:
47
"These people have received the Holy Spirit, just as we also did. Can anyone, then, stop them from being baptized with water?"
48
So he ordered them to be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ. Then they asked him to stay with them for a few days.
Acts 11:1-18
1
The apostles and the other believers throughout Judea heard that the Gentiles also had received the word of God.
2
When Peter went to Jerusalem, those who were in favor of circumcising Gentiles criticized him, saying,
3
"You were a guest in the home of uncircumcised Gentiles, and you even ate with them!"
4
So Peter gave them a complete account of what had happened from the very beginning:
5
"While I was praying in the city of Joppa, I had a vision. I saw something coming down that looked like a large sheet being lowered by its four corners from heaven, and it stopped next to me.
6
I looked closely inside and saw domesticated and wild animals, reptiles, and wild birds.
7
Then I heard a voice saying to me, 'Get up, Peter; kill and eat!'
8
But I said, 'Certainly not, Lord! No ritually unclean or defiled food has ever entered my mouth.'
9
The voice spoke again from heaven, 'Do not consider anything unclean that God has declared clean.'
10
This happened three times, and finally the whole thing was drawn back up into heaven.
11
At that very moment three men who had been sent to me from Caesarea arrived at the house where I was staying.
12
The Spirit told me to go with them without hesitation. These six fellow believers from Joppa accompanied me to Caesarea, and we all went into the house of Cornelius.
13
He told us how he had seen an angel standing in his house, who said to him, 'Send someone to Joppa for a man whose full name is Simon Peter.
14
He will speak words to you by which you and all your family will be saved.'
15
And when I began to speak, the Holy Spirit came down on them just as on us at the beginning.
16
Then I remembered what the Lord had said: 'John baptized with water, but you will be baptized with the Holy Spirit.'
17
It is clear that God gave those Gentiles the same gift that he gave us when we believed in the Lord Jesus Christ; who was I, then, to try to stop God!"
18
When they heard this, they stopped their criticism and praised God, saying, "Then God has given to the Gentiles also the opportunity to repent and live!"

12
This includes everyone, because there is no difference between Jews and Gentiles; God is the same Lord of all and richly blesses all who call to him.
13
As the scripture says, "Everyone who calls out to the Lord for help will be saved."
14
But how can they call to him for help if they have not believed? And how can they believe if they have not heard the message? And how can they hear if the message is not proclaimed?
15
And how can the message be proclaimed if the messengers are not sent out? As the scripture says, "How wonderful is the coming of messengers who bring good news!"
