DAY 8





AC-7:52 Which of the prophets have not your fathers

persecuted? and they have slain them which showed before of the

coming of the Just One; of whom ye have been now the betrayers
and

murderers:



AC-7:53 Who have received the law by the disposition of angels,
and

have not kept [it].



AC-7:54 When they heard these things, they were cut to the
heart,

and they gnashed on him with [their] teeth.



AC-7:55 But he, being full of the Holy Ghost, looked up
stedfastly

into heaven, and saw the glory of God, and Jesus standing on the

right hand of God,



AC-7:56 And said, Behold, I see the heavens opened, and the Son
of

man standing on the right hand of God.



AC-7:57 Then they cried out with a loud voice, and stopped their

ears, and ran upon him with one accord,



AC-7:58 And cast [him] out of the city, and stoned [him]: and
the

witnesses laid down their clothes at a young man's feet, whose
name

was Saul.



AC-7:59 And they stoned Stephen, calling upon [God], and saying,

Lord Jesus, receive my spirit.



AC-7:60 And he kneeled down, and cried with a loud voice, Lord,
lay

not this sin to their charge. And when he had said this, he fell

asleep.



*AC-8:1 And Saul was consenting unto his death. And at that time

there was a great persecution against the church which was at

Jerusalem; and they were all scattered abroad throughout the
regions

of Judaea and Samaria, except the apostles.



AC-8:2 And devout men carried Stephen [to his burial], and made

great lamentation over him.



AC-8:3 As for Saul, he made havock of the church, entering into

every house, and haling men and women committed [them] to prison.



AC-8:4 Therefore they that were scattered abroad went every
where

preaching the word.



AC-8:5 Then Philip went down to the city of Samaria, and
preached

Christ unto them.



AC-8:6 And the people with one accord gave heed unto those
things

which Philip spake, hearing and seeing the miracles which he did.



AC-8:7 For unclean spirits, crying with loud voice, came out of

many that were possessed [with them]: and many taken with
palsies,

and that were lame, were healed.



AC-8:8 And there was great joy in that city.



AC-8:9 But there was a certain man, called Simon, which
beforetime

in the same city used sorcery, and bewitched the people of
Samaria,

giving out that himself was some great one:



AC-8:10 To whom they all gave heed, from the least to the
greatest,

saying, This man is the great power of God.



AC-8:11 And to him they had regard, because that of long time he

had bewitched them with sorceries.



AC-8:12 But when they believed Philip preaching the things

concerning the kingdom of God, and the name of Jesus Christ, they

were baptized, both men and women.



AC-8:13 Then Simon himself believed also: and when he was
baptized,

he continued with Philip, and wondered, beholding the miracles
and

signs which were done.



AC-8:14 Now when the apostles which were at Jerusalem heard that

Samaria had received the word of God, they sent unto them Peter
and

John:



AC-8:15 Who, when they were come down, prayed for them, that
they

might receive the Holy Ghost:



AC-8:16 (For as yet he was fallen upon none of them: only they
were

baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus.)



AC-8:17 Then laid they [their] hands on them, and they received
the

Holy Ghost.





AC-8:18 And when Simon saw that through laying on of the
apostles'

hands the Holy Ghost was given, he offered them money,



AC-8:19 Saying, Give me also this power, that on whomsoever I
lay

hands, he may receive the Holy Ghost.



AC-8:20 But Peter said unto him, Thy money perish with thee,

because thou hast thought that the gift of God may be purchased
with

money.



AC-8:21 Thou hast neither part nor lot in this matter: for thy

heart is not right in the sight of God.



AC-8:22 Repent therefore of this thy wickedness, and pray God,
if

perhaps the thought of thine heart may be forgiven thee.



AC-8:23 For I perceive that thou art in the gall of bitterness,
and

[in] the bond of iniquity.



AC-8:24 Then answered Simon, and said, Pray ye to the Lord for
me,

that none of these things which ye have spoken come upon me.



AC-8:25 And they, when they had testified and preached the word
of

the Lord, returned to Jerusalem, and preached the gospel in many

villages of the Samaritans.



AC-8:26 And the angel of the Lord spake unto Philip, saying,
Arise,

and go toward the south unto the way that goeth down from
Jerusalem

unto Gaza, which is desert.



AC-8:27 And he arose and went: and, behold, a man of Ethiopia,
an

eunuch of great authority under Candace queen of the Ethiopians,
who

had the charge of all her treasure, and had come to Jerusalem
for to

worship,



AC-8:28 Was returning, and sitting in his chariot read Esaias
the

prophet.
