Acts 4:7-14

Acts 4:7-14 NCV

They made Peter and John stand before them and then asked them, “By what power or authority did you do this?” Then Peter, filled with the Holy Spirit, said to them, “Rulers of the people and you elders, are you questioning us about a good thing that was done to a crippled man? Are you asking us who made him well? We want all of you and all the people to know that this man was made well by the power of Jesus Christ from Nazareth. You crucified him, but God raised him from the dead. This man was crippled, but he is now well and able to stand here before you because of the power of Jesus. Jesus is ‘the stone that you builders rejected, which has become the cornerstone.’ Jesus is the only One who can save people. No one else in the world is able to save us.” The leaders saw that Peter and John were not afraid to speak, and they understood that these men had no special training or education. So they were amazed. Then they realized that Peter and John had been with Jesus. Because they saw the healed man standing there beside the two apostles, they could say nothing against them.
