But the people of Jerusalem and their leaders didn’t realize who he was, nor did they understand the prophecies written of him. Yet they fulfilled those very prophecies, which they read week after week in their meetings, by condemning him to death. Even though they could come up with no legal grounds for the death sentence, they pleaded with Pilate to have him executed. And they did to him all that was prophesied they would do. Then they took him down from the cross and laid him in a tomb. But God raised him from the dead!

All who believed that they were destined to experience eternal life received the message. God’s word spread like wildfire throughout the entire region.They left the new converts in Antioch overflowing with the joy of the Holy Spirit.” Listen to what the Word Says, Obey and Share.
