Seeker Overlay ON

* On the morrow , as they went on their journey , and drew nigh unto the city , Peter went up upon the housetop to pray about the sixth hour : * And he became very hungry , and would have eaten : but while they made ready , he fell into a trance , * And saw heaven opened , and a certain vessel descending unto him , as it had been a great sheet knit at the four corners , and let down to the earth : * Wherein were all manner of fourfooted beasts of the earth , and wild beasts , and creeping things , and fowls of the air . * And there came a voice to him , Rise , Peter ; kill , and eat . * But Peter said , Not so , Lord ; for I have never eaten any thing that is common or unclean . * And the voice spake unto him again the second time , What God hath cleansed , that call not thou common . * This was done thrice : and the vessel was received up again into heaven . * Now while Peter doubted in himself what this vision which he had seen should mean , behold , the men which were sent from Cornelius had made enquiry for Simon 's house , and stood before the gate , * And called , and asked whether Simon , which was surnamed Peter , were lodged there . * While Peter thought on the vision , the Spirit said unto him , Behold , three men seek thee . * Arise therefore , and get thee down , and go with them , doubting nothing : for I have sent them .
