Acts 15:7-9

Sawyer(i) 7 And after there had been much debate, Peter rose and said to them, Men and brothers, you know that in former days God chose among you that the gentiles should hear by my mouth the word of the gospel and believe. 8 And the heart-searching God testified to them, giving to them the Holy Spirit even as to us, 9 and made no difference between us and them, purifying their hearts by the faith.
