by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for
correction, for instruction in righteousness, (17) that the man of
God may be complete, thoroughly equipped for every good work.
2Ti 2:15-16 NKJV Be diligent to present yourself approved
to God, a worker who does not need to be ashamed, rightly

Act 6:1-7 NKJV Now in those days, when the number of the disciples
was multiplying, there arose a complaint against the Hebrews by the
Hellenists, because their widows were neglected in the daily distribution.
(2) Then the twelve summoned the multitude of the disciples and said, "It
is not desirable that we should leave the word of God and serve tables.
(3) Therefore, brethren, seek out from among you seven men of good
reputation, full of the Holy Spirit and wisdom, whom we may appoint
over this business; (4) but we will give ourselves continually to prayer
and to the ministry of the word." (5) And the saying pleased the whole
multitude. And they chose Stephen, a man full of faith and the Holy
Spirit, and Philip, Prochorus, Nicanor, Timon, Parmenas, and Nicolas, a
proselyte from Antioch, (6) whom they set before the apostles; and
when they had prayed, they laid hands on them. (7) Then the word of
God spread, and the number of the disciples multiplied greatly in
Jerusalem, and a great many of the priests were obedient to the faith.

them to observe all things that I have commanded you; and lo, I am with
you always, even to the end of the age." Amen.

Act 4:9-14 NKJV If we this day are judged for a good deed done to a
helpless man, by what means he has been made well, (10) let it be
known to you all, and to all the people of Israel, that by the name of
Jesus Christ of Nazareth, whom you crucified, whom God raised from
the dead, by Him this man stands here before you whole. (11) This is
the 'STONE WHICH WAS REJECTED BY YOU BUILDERS, WHICH
HAS BECOME THE CHIEF CORNERSTONE.' (12) Nor is there
salvation in any other, for there is no other name under heaven given
among men by which we must be saved." (13) Now when they saw the
boldness of Peter and John, and perceived that they were uneducated and
untrained men, they marveled. And they realized that they had been with
Jesus. (14) And seeing the man who had been healed standing with
them, they could say nothing against it.

may speak Your word,

Act 2:36-41 NKJV "Therefore let all the house of Israel know assuredly
that God has made this Jesus, whom you crucified, both Lord and
Christ." (37) Now when they heard this, they were cut to the heart, and
said to Peter and the rest of the apostles, "Men and brethren, what shall
we do?" (38) Then Peter said to them, "Repent, and let every one of you
be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins; and you
shall receive the gift of the Holy Spirit. (39) For the promise is to you
and to your children, and to all who are afar off, as many as the Lord our
God will call." (40) And with many other words he testified and
exhorted them, saying, "Be saved from this perverse generation." (41)

Rom 6:3-7 NKJV Or do you not know that as many of us as were
baptized into Christ Jesus were baptized into His death? (4) Therefore
we were buried with Him through baptism into death, that just as Christ
was raised from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also
should walk in newness of life. (5) For if we have been united together
in the likeness of His death, certainly we also shall be in the likeness of
His resurrection, (6) knowing this, that our old man was crucified with
Him, that the body of sin might be done away with, that we should no
longer be slaves of sin. (7) For he who has died has been freed from sin.
Act 22:16 NKJV And now why are you waiting? Arise and be baptized,
and wash away your sins, calling on the name of the Lord.'
