emtv - Acts:8:2-25

emtv@Acts:8:2 @ And godly men buried Stephen, and they mourned deeply for him.

emtv@Acts:8:3 @ But Saul was doing injury to the church, going in from house to house, and dragging away both men and women, and putting them in prison.

emtv@Acts:8:4 @ Therefore those who were scattered went about preaching the good news of the word.

emtv@Acts:8:5 @ And Philip, going down to a city of Samaria, was preaching to them the Christ.

emtv@Acts:8:6 @ And the crowds with one accord gave heed to the things spoken by Philip, hearing and seeing the signs which he was doing.

emtv@Acts:8:7 @ For many of those having unclean spirits [had ]cried out with a loud voice, [and the spirits ]came out; and many who were paralyzed and lame were healed.

emtv@Acts:8:8 @ And there was great joy in that city.

emtv@Acts:8:9 @ Now a certain man named Simon was previously in the city practicing magic and astounding the people of Samaria, claiming himself to be someone great,

emtv@Acts:8:10 @ to whom they gave heed, from the least to the greatest, saying, "This man is the great power of God."

emtv@Acts:8:11 @ But they gave heed to him because of the long time that he had astonished them with the magic arts.

emtv@Acts:8:12 @ But when they believed Philip as he preached the good news of the things concerning the kingdom of God and the name of Jesus Christ, they were baptized, both men and women.

emtv@Acts:8:13 @ Then Simon himself also believed; and having been baptized, he was continuing with Philip, and observing miracles and signs occurring, he was astounded.

emtv@Acts:8:14 @ Now when the apostles who were at Jerusalem heard that Samaria had received the word of God, they sent to them Peter and John,

emtv@Acts:8:15 @ who, coming down, prayed concerning them in order that they might receive the Holy Spirit.

emtv@Acts:8:16 @ For He had not yet fallen upon any of them, but they had only been baptized in the name of Christ Jesus.

emtv@Acts:8:17 @ Then they laid hands upon them, and they received the Holy Spirit.

emtv@Acts:8:18 @ Now when Simon observed that by the laying on of the apostles' hands the Holy Spirit was given, he offered them money,

emtv@Acts:8:19 @ saying, "Give me this power also, that on whom ever I lay my hands he may receive the Holy Spirit."

emtv@Acts:8:20 @ But Peter said to him, "Your money perish with you, because you thought to acquire the gift of God through money!

emtv@Acts:8:21 @ You have neither part nor portion in this word, for your heart is not right before God.

emtv@Acts:8:22 @ Repent therefore from this your wickedness, and make petition to God, if perhaps the intent of your heart will be forgiven you.

emtv@Acts:8:23 @ For I see that you are in the gall of bitterness and in the bond of unrighteousness."

emtv@Acts:8:24 @ Then Simon answered and said, "Pray to the Lord for me, that none of the things which you have spoken may come upon me."

emtv@Acts:8:25 @ Then solemnly bearing witness to and speaking the word of the Lord, they returned to Jerusalem, and preached the gospel in many Samaritan villages.
