Acts 10:13

Simon

11 He saw heaven open and something like a large sheet being let down to earth by its four corners.

12 It contained all kinds of four-footed animals and reptiles of the earth, as well as birds of the air.

Then a voice said to him: “Get up, Peter, kill and eat!”

14 “No, Lord!” Peter answered. “I have never eaten anything impure or unclean.”

15 The voice spoke to him a second time: “Do not call anything impure that God has made clean.”
