“Men of Israel, hear these words: Jesus of Nazareth, a man attested to you by God with mighty works and wonders and signs that God did through him in your midst, as you yourselves know— this Jesus, delivered up according to the definite plan and foreknowledge of God, you crucified and killed by the hands of lawless men. God raised him up, loosing the pangs of death, because it was not possible for him to be held by it.” (Acts 2:22-24 ESV)
Мужи Израильские! выслушайте слова сии: Иисуса Назорея, Мужа, засвидетельствованного вам от Бога силами и чудесами и знамениями, которые Бог сотворил через Него среди вас, как и сами знаете, Сего, по определенному совету и предведению Божию преданного, вы взяли и, пригвоздив руками беззаконных, убили; но Бог воскресил Его, расторгнув узы смерти, потому что ей невозможно было удержать Его. (Деяния 2:22-24 Russian)
O LORD my God ~ thank you dear Heavenly Father, for the joy that fills our hearts on this new day as we consider the power of the gospel message that was boldly and accurately delivered on that birth day of the Church of Christ in Jerusalem in the First Century of this era. Help us Lord as we muster courage and fortitude to carry that message of truth and love to people in other nations before the end of time. Upset the comfort zone of those who are at ease in Zion. We pray ardently in the precious name of our Lord Jesus Christ. Amen.
