Chapter 5 But a certain man named Ananias,
with Sapphira his wife, sold the

00:06.700 --> 00:11.460
possession and kept back part of the
price, his wife also being privy to it,

00:11.700 --> 00:15.000
and brought a certain part and laid it at
the apostles' feet.

00:15.780 --> 00:21.300
But Peter said, Ananias, why hath Satan
filled thine heart to lie to the Holy

00:21.300 --> 00:25.140
Ghost, and to keep back part of the price
of the land?

00:26.260 --> 00:28.400
Whilst it remained, was it not thine own?

00:29.060 --> 00:32.100
And after it was sold, was it not in thine
own power?

00:33.120 --> 00:35.800
Why hast thou conceived this thing in
thine heart?

00:36.780 --> 00:40.600
Thou hast not lied unto men, but unto God.

00:41.380 --> 00:46.160
And Ananias, hearing these words,
fell down and gave up the ghost.

00:46.820 --> 00:50.260
And great fear came on all them that heard
these things.

00:50.780 --> 00:55.440
And the young man arose, wound him up,
and carried him out and buried him.

00:55.980 --> 01:01.340
And it was about the space of three hours
after, when his wife, not knowing what was

01:01.340 --> 01:02.300
done, came in.

01:02.960 --> 01:06.880
And Peter answered unto her, Tell me
whether ye sold the land for so much?

01:07.100 --> 01:09.520
And she said, Yea, for so much.

01:09.800 --> 01:15.080
Then Peter said unto her, How is it that
ye have agreed together to tempt the

01:15.080 --> 01:16.280
Spirit of the Lord?

01:17.440 --> 01:22.080
Behold, the feet of them which have buried
thy husband are at the door, and shall

01:22.080 --> 01:23.160
carry thee out.

01:23.160 --> 01:28.200
Then fell she down straightway at his
feet, and yielded up the ghost.

01:28.640 --> 01:33.160
And the young man came in, and found her
dead, and carrying her forth, buried her

01:33.160 --> 01:33.820
by her husband.

01:34.800 --> 01:39.880
And great fear came upon all the church,
and upon as many as heard these things.

01:41.220 --> 01:44.880
And by the hands of the apostles were many
signs and wonders wrought among the

01:44.880 --> 01:48.420
people, and they were all with one accord
in Solomon's porch.

01:49.120 --> 01:52.120
And of the rest durst no man join himself
to them.

01:52.120 --> 01:54.740
But the people magnified them.

01:55.500 --> 01:59.960
And believers were the more added to the
Lord, multitudes both of men and women.

02:01.060 --> 02:05.060
Insomuch that they brought forth the sick
into the streets, and laid them on beds

02:05.060 --> 02:10.360
and couches, that at the least the shadow
of Peter passing by might overshadow some

02:10.360 --> 02:10.680
of them.

02:11.400 --> 02:15.000
There came also a multitude out of the
cities round about unto Jerusalem,

02:15.500 --> 02:18.880
bringing sick folks, and them which were
vexed with unclean spirits.

02:18.880 --> 02:21.800
And they were healed every one.

02:23.000 --> 02:27.600
Then the high priest rose up, and all they
that were with him, which is the sect of

02:27.600 --> 02:32.420
the Sadducees, and were filled with
indignation, and laid their hands on the

02:32.420 --> 02:34.680
apostles, and put them in the common
prison.

02:35.640 --> 02:40.260
But the angel of the Lord by night opened
the prison doors, and brought them forth,

02:40.320 --> 02:46.240
and said, Go, stand and speak in the
temple to the people all the words of this

02:46.240 --> 02:46.660
life.

02:46.660 --> 02:50.900
And when they heard that, they entered
into the temple early in the morning,

02:51.200 --> 02:51.820
and taught.

02:52.620 --> 02:56.620
But the high priest came, and they that
were with him, and called the council

02:56.620 --> 03:00.540
together, and all the senate of the
children of Israel, and sent to the prison

03:00.540 --> 03:01.340
to have them brought.

03:02.220 --> 03:06.580
But when the officers came, and found them
not in the prison, they returned,

03:06.960 --> 03:12.220
and told, saying, The prison truly found
we shut with all safety, and the keepers

03:12.220 --> 03:14.000
standing without before the doors.

03:14.000 --> 03:17.600
But when we had opened, we found no man
within.

03:18.040 --> 03:21.160
Now when the high priest, and the captain
of the temple, and the chief priests heard

03:21.160 --> 03:24.360
these things, they doubted of them
whereunto this would grow.

03:25.840 --> 03:30.440
Then came one, and told them, saying,
Behold, the men whom ye put in prison are

03:30.440 --> 03:32.620
standing in the temple, and teaching the
people.

03:33.080 --> 03:36.260
Then went the captain with the officers,
and brought them without violence,

03:36.620 --> 03:39.480
for they feared the people, lest they
should have been stoned.

03:40.080 --> 03:43.560
And when they had brought them,
they set them before the council,

03:43.800 --> 03:48.000
and the high priest asked them,
saying, Did not we straightly command you

03:48.000 --> 03:49.920
that ye should not teach in this name?

03:50.460 --> 03:54.960
And behold, ye have filled Jerusalem with
your doctrine, and intend to bring this

03:54.960 --> 03:56.160
man's blood upon us.

03:56.540 --> 04:01.220
Then Peter and the other apostles answered
and said, We are to obey God rather than

04:01.220 --> 04:01.540
men.

04:02.360 --> 04:07.060
The God of our fathers raised up Jesus,
whom ye slew and hanged on a tree.

04:07.660 --> 04:12.520
Him hath God exalted with his right hand
to be a prince and a savior, for to give

04:12.520 --> 04:15.160
repentance to Israel, and forgiveness of
sins.

04:16.000 --> 04:18.820
And we are his witnesses of these things.

04:19.740 --> 04:24.360
And so is also the Holy Ghost,
whom God hath given to them that obey him.

04:24.800 --> 04:29.300
When they heard that, they were cut to the
heart, and took counsel to slay them.

04:29.980 --> 04:34.740
Then stood thereupon in the council a
Pharisee named Gamaliel, a doctor of the

04:34.740 --> 04:39.540
law, had in reputation among all the
people, and commanded to put the apostles

04:39.540 --> 04:45.600
forth a little space, and said unto them,
Ye men of Israel, take heed to yourselves

04:45.600 --> 04:47.700
what ye intend to do as touching these
men.

04:48.760 --> 04:52.960
For before these days rose up Thudas,
boasting himself to be somebody,

04:53.680 --> 04:59.260
to whom a number of men, about four
hundred, joined themselves, who was slain,

04:59.600 --> 05:03.060
and all, as many as obeyed him,
were scattered, and brought to naught.

05:03.900 --> 05:09.580
After this man rose up Judas of Galilee in
the days of the taxing, and drew away much

05:09.580 --> 05:10.480
people after him.

05:11.080 --> 05:16.160
He also perished, and all, even as many as
obeyed him, were dispersed.

05:17.240 --> 05:21.760
And now I say unto you, refrain from these
men, and let them alone.

05:22.220 --> 05:26.140
For if this counsel or this work be of
men, it will come to naught.

05:26.140 --> 05:32.460
But if it be of God, ye cannot overthrow
it, lest happily ye be found even to fight

05:32.460 --> 05:33.220
against God.

05:33.480 --> 05:34.600
And to him they agreed.

05:35.060 --> 05:39.280
And when they had called the apostles,
and beaten them, they commanded that they

05:39.280 --> 05:42.180
should not speak in the name of Jesus,
and let them go.

05:42.860 --> 05:47.300
And they departed from the presence of the
council, rejoicing that they were counted

05:47.300 --> 05:49.460
worthy to suffer shame for his name.

05:50.000 --> 05:55.220
And daily in the temple, and in every
house, they ceased not to teach and preach

05:55.220 --> 05:56.420
Jesus Christ.
