Acts 3:16-18
1599 Geneva Bible
16 And his Name hath made this man sound, whom ye see and know, through faith in his Name: [a]and the faith which is by him, hath given to him this perfect health of his whole body in the presence of you all.
17 [b]And now brethren, I know that through ignorance ye did it, as did also your governors.
18 But those things, which God before had showed [c]by the mouth of all his Prophets, that Christ should suffer, he hath thus fulfilled.

- Acts 3:16 Because he believed on him being raised from the dead, whose Name he heard of by us.
- Acts 3:17 It is best of all to receive Christ so soon as he is offered unto us: but such as have neglected so great a benefit through man’s weakness, have yet repentance for a means. As for the ignominy of the cross, we have to set against that, the decree and purpose of God, foretold by the Prophets, of Christ, how that first of all he should be crucified here upon earth, and then he should appear from heaven the judge and restorer of all things, that all believers might be saved, and all unbelievers utterly perish.
- Acts 3:18 Though there were many Prophets, yet he speaketh but of one mouth, to show unto us the consent and agreement of the Prophets.
