Acts 3:20

Jesus
ComfortRest and sabbathJesus Christ

18 But in this way God has fulfilled what He foretold through all the prophets, saying that His Christ would suffer.

19 Repent, then, and turn back, so that your sins may be wiped away,

that times of refreshing may come from the presence of the Lord, and that He may send Jesus, the Christ, who has been appointed for you.

21 Heaven must take Him in until the time comes for the restoration of all things, which God announced long ago through His holy prophets.

22 For Moses said, ‘The Lord your God will raise up for you a prophet like me from among your brothers. You must listen to Him in everything He tells you.
