Acts 1:8 But you shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come on you: and you shall be witnesses to me both in Jerusalem… There is also for us a "Jerusalem," a "Judaea," a "Samaria," if not an "uttermost part of the earth" — some well-dressed city with its ragged fringe of want and wickedness, some country district with its neglected families, some sophisticated brain that has gone astray from the old standards at home of the faith and set up its Gerizim rivalry — some that you can minister to by your charity, and win back by your witnessing, if that witnessing is only as zealous as Peter's and as patient as Paul's, and as loving as John's. (Bp. Huntington.) Parallel Verses KJV: But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judaea, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth. |
