“ The voice spoke from heaven a second time,‘ Do not call anything impure that God has made clean.’

“ A second time the voice spoke from heaven. The voice said,‘ Do not say anything is not pure that God has made“ clean.” ’

But the voice answered a second time from heaven,‘ What God has made clean, do not call common.’

But a voice answered from heaven a second time,‘ What God has made clean, you must not call impure.’

But a voice from heaven answered a second time,‘ What God has cleansed, no longer consider unholy.’

For by the power of the eternal Spirit, Christ offered himself to God as a perfect sacrifice for our sins.

But the voice spoke again:“ Do not call something unclean if God has made it clean.”

For we know it is made acceptable by the word of God and prayer.

Then Peter replied,“ I see very clearly that God shows no favoritism.In every nation he accepts those who fear him and do what is right.

Peter told them,“ You know it is against our laws for a Jewish man to enter a Gentile home like this or to associate with you. But God has shown me that I should no longer think of anyone as impure or unclean.
