Scriptures

New King James Version (NKJV)

Acts 6
¹⁰ And they were not able to resist the wisdom and the Spirit by which he spoke.
¹¹ Then they secretly induced men to say, "We have heard him speak blasphemous words against Moses and God."
¹² And they stirred up the people, the elders, and the scribes; and they came upon him, seized him, and brought him to the council.
¹³ They also set up false witnesses who said, "This man does not cease to speak blasphemous words against this holy place and the law;
¹⁴ for we have heard him say that this Jesus of Nazareth will destroy this place and change the customs which Moses delivered to us."
¹⁵ And all who sat in the council, looking steadfastly at him, saw his face as the face of an angel.
Acts 7
¹ Then the high priest said, "Are these things so?"
² And he said, "Brethren and fathers, listen: The God of glory appeared to our father Abraham when he was in Mesopotamia, before he dwelt in Haran,
³ and said to him, ’Get out of your country and from your relatives, and come to a land that I will show you.’
⁴ Then he came out of the land of the Chaldeans and dwelt in Haran. And from there, when his father was dead, He moved him to this land in which you now dwell.
⁵ And God gave him no inheritance in it, not even enough to set his foot on. But even when Abraham had no child, He promised to give it to him for a possession, and to his descendants after him.
