The Resurrection Revolution: The Revolution in Action
The man who could not walk looked at them. He thought he would get something from them. Peter said, “I have no money, but what I have I will give you! In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, get up and walk!” Peter took the man by the right hand and lifted him up. At once his feet and the bones in his legs became strong. He jumped up on his feet and walked.
Acts 3:5-8 NLV
[Peter] addressed the people: “Men of Israel, why are you

Acts 3:12-13a BSB

Acts 3:15,16 NLT
