\v 17 Moses recorded that God had told Pharaoh, "This is why I made you king of Egypt: It was so I might fight against you and everyone in the world will know how great I am."

\v 4 They, like me, are Israelites. God chose them to be his children. It is to them that he showed how wonderful he is. It is with them that he made the covenants. It is to them that he gave the law. They are the ones whom he taught to worship him in the right way. They are the ones to whom God promised many things.
v 35 Absolutely no one and nothing can cause Christ to stop loving us—even if someone afflicts us, or even someone harms us, or even if we have nothing to eat, or even if we do not have enough clothes, or even if we live in a dangerous situation, or even if someone will kill us!

\v 28 And we know that for those who love God, he works out all things that happen to them in a way that does **them** good. He does this for those whom he has chosen, because that was what he planned to do.
\v 22 You who command people not to sleep with someone to whom they are not married, it is disgusting that you commit adultery yourself! You who command others not to worship idols, it is disgusting that you rob the temples where people worship those idols.
\v 28 They shouted, "Men of Israel, help us to stop this man! He is the man who goes around everywhere teaching people to oppose our people, the Law of Moses, and this temple. He has even brought Gentiles here into our temple, making this place unholy!"
\v 27 So now people may see our idol business as dishonorable. Not only that, but they might reject the temple of the great goddess Artemis as a place that has no meaning at all and they might forget her, even though many people in the province of Asia and all over the world worship her.

\v 14 We all fell to the ground. Then I heard the voice of someone speaking to me in the Hebrew language.
\p "He said, 'Saul, Saul, why are you persecuting me? You only hurt yourself when you fight against me."
\v 10 The argument became so great that the Pharisees and Sadducees began to fight with one another. Seeing this, the commander of the Roman soldiers was afraid that Paul would be torn to pieces, so he told the men under his command to go down to the place where Paul was, and to take a number of soldiers who could be able to safely bring him from there and to take him to the place where the soldiers were staying.
From Bob Johnson
\40 Be careful, so that the very things the prophets said would happen do not happen to you. God spoke through one of them, and he said:
\q
\ 41 'You who ridicule me, you will certainly be astonished and will die when you see what I am doing today.
\q I am doing a work that you will not believe, even when it happens to you;
\q even if someone told you about it, you would not believe it.
\v 18 When they had heard what Peter said, they stopped speaking and no longer argued with him. Then they praised God, saying, "God now gives even the Gentiles the ability to turn from their sinful behavior and receive eternal life."
