Paul’s Sermon in Antioch of Pisidia
13Paul and his companions set sail from Paphos and came to Perga in Pamphylia, but John left them and went back to Jerusalem. 14They continued their journey from Perga and reached Pisidian Antioch. On the Sabbath day they went into the synagogue and sat down. 15After the reading of the Law and the Prophets, the leaders of the synagogue sent word to them, saying, “Brothers, if you have any word of encouragement for the people, you can speak.”
16Paul stood up and motioned with his hand and said, “Fellow Israelites, and you who fear God, listen! 17The God of this people Israel chose our ancestors, made the people prosper during their stay in the land of Egypt, and led them out of it with a mighty arm. 18And for about forty years he put up with them in the wilderness; 19and after destroying seven nations in the land of Canaan, he gave them their land as an inheritance. 20This all took about 450 years. After this, he gave them judges until Samuel the prophet. 21Then they asked for a king, and God gave them Saul the son of Kish, a man of the tribe of Benjamin, for forty years. 22After removing him, he raised up David as their king and testified about him, ‘I have found David the son of Jesse to be a man after my own heart, , who will carry out all my will.’
23“From this man’s descendants, as he promised, God brought to Israel the Savior, Jesus. 24Before his coming to public attention, John had previously proclaimed a baptism of repentance to all the people of Israel. 25Now as John was completing his mission, he said, ‘Who do you think I am? I am not the one. But one is coming after me, and I am not worthy to untie the sandals on his feet.’
26“Brothers and sisters, children of Abraham’s race, and those among you who fear God, it is to us that the word of this salvation has been sent. 27Since the residents of Jerusalem and their rulers did not recognize him or the sayings of the prophets that are read every Sabbath, they have fulfilled their words by condemning him. 28Though they found no grounds for the death sentence, they asked Pilate to have him killed. 29When they had carried out all that had been written about him, they took him down from the tree and put him in a tomb. 30But God raised him from the dead, 31and he appeared for many days to those who came up with him from Galilee to Jerusalem, who are now his witnesses to the people. 32And we ourselves proclaim to you the good news of the promise that was made to our ancestors. 33God has fulfilled this for us, their children, by raising up Jesus, as it is written in the second Psalm:
You are my Son;
today I have become your Father. ,,
34As to his raising him from the dead, never to return to decay, he has spoken in this way, I will give you the holy and sure promises of David. , 35Therefore he also says in another passage, You will not let your Holy One see decay. , 36For David, after serving God’s purpose in his own generation, fell asleep, was buried with his fathers, and decayed, 37but the one God raised up did not decay. 38Therefore, let it be known to you, brothers and sisters, that through this man forgiveness of sins is being proclaimed to you. 39Everyone who believes is justified through him from everything that you could not be justified from through the law of Moses. 40So beware that what is said in the prophets does not happen to you:
41 Look, you scoffers,
marvel and vanish away,
because I am doing a work in your days,
a work that you will never believe,
even if someone were to explain it to you.” , https://temtube.com/
