Then Peter opened his mouth and said: In truth I perceive that God shows no partiality.

nor do you consider that it is expedient for us that one man should die for the people, and that the whole nation should not perish.

and not for that nation only, but also that He would gather together into one the children of God who had been scattered abroad.

And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and receive you to Myself; that where I am, there you may be also.
