Acts 4:14

12 Salvation exists in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given to men by which we must be saved.”

13 When they saw the boldness of Peter and John and realized that they were unschooled, ordinary men, they marveled and took note that these men had been with Jesus.

And seeing the man who had been healed standing there with them, they had nothing to say in response.

15 So they ordered them to leave the Sanhedrin and then conferred together.

16 “What shall we do with these men?” they asked. “It is clear to everyone living in Jerusalem that a remarkable miracle has occurred through them, and we cannot deny it.
