A lame man healed by St. Peter- Jerusalem.
(Acts 3:1 [Net])
Now Peter and John were going up to the temple at the time for prayer, at three o’clock in the afternoon.
(Acts 3:2 [Net])
And a man lame from birth was being carried up, who was placed at the temple gate called “the Beautiful Gate” every day so he could beg for money from those going into the temple courts.
(Acts 3:3 [Net])
When he saw Peter and John about to go into the temple courts, he asked them for money.
(Acts 3:4 [Net])
Peter looked directly at him (as did John) and said, “Look at us!”
(Acts 3:5 [Net])
So the lame man paid attention to them, expecting to receive something from them.
(Acts 3:6 [Net])
But Peter said, “I have no silver or gold, but what I do have I give you. In the name of Jesus Christ the Nazarene, stand up and walk!”
(Acts 3:7 [Net])
Then Peter took hold of him by the right hand and raised him up, and at once the man’s feet and ankles were made strong.
(Acts 3:8 [Net])
He jumped up, stood and began walking around, and he entered the temple courts with them, walking and leaping and praising God.
(Acts 3:9 [Net])
All the people saw him walking and praising God,
(Acts 3:10 [Net])
and they recognized him as the man who used to sit and ask for donations at the Beautiful Gate of the temple, and they were filled with astonishment and amazement at what had happened to him.

Death of Ananias and Sapphira- Jerusalem.
(Acts 5:1 [Net])
Now a man named Ananias, together with Sapphira his wife, sold a piece of property.
(Acts 5:2 [Net])
He kept back for himself part of the proceeds with his wife’s knowledge; he brought only part of it and placed it at the apostles’ feet.
(Acts 5:3 [Net])
But Peter said, “Ananias, why has Satan filled your heart to lie to the Holy Spirit and keep back for yourself part of the proceeds from the sale of the land?
(Acts 5:4 [Net])
Before it was sold, did it not belong to you? And when it was sold, was the money not at your disposal? How have you thought up this deed in your heart? You have not lied to people but to God!”
(Acts 5:5 [Net])
When Ananias heard these words he collapsed and died, and great fear gripped all who heard about it.
(Acts 5:6 [Net])
So the young men came, wrapped him up, carried him out, and buried him.
(Acts 5:7 [Net])
After an interval of about three hours, his wife came in, but she did not know what had happened.
(Acts 5:8 [Net])
Peter said to her, “Tell me, were the two of you paid this amount for the land?” Sapphira said, “Yes, that much.”
(Acts 5:9 [Net])
Peter then told her, “Why have you agreed together to test the Spirit of the Lord? Look! The feet of those who have buried your husband are at the door, and they will carry you out!”
(Acts 5:10 [Net])
At once she collapsed at his feet and died. So when the young men came in, they found her dead, and they carried her out and buried her beside her husband.
(Acts 5:11 [Net])
Great fear gripped the whole church and all who heard about these things.

(Acts 8:10 [Net])
All the people, from the least to the greatest, paid close attention to him, saying, “This man is the power of God that is called ‘Great.’”

(Acts 8:14 [Net])
Now when the apostles in Jerusalem heard that Samaria had accepted the word of God, they sent Peter and John to them.
(Acts 8:15 [Net])

The angel said to him, “Fasten your belt and put on your sandals.” Peter did so. Then the angel said to him, “Put on your cloak and follow me.”
(Acts 12:9 [Net])

(Acts 13:9 [Net])
But Saul (also known as Paul), filled with the Holy Spirit, stared straight at him
(Acts 13:10 [Net])
and said, “You who are full of all deceit and all wrongdoing, you son of the devil, you enemy of all righteousness – will you not stop making crooked the straight paths of the Lord?
(Acts 13:11 [Net])
Now look, the hand of the Lord is against you, and you will be blind, unable to see the sun for a time!” Immediately mistiness and darkness came over him, and he went around seeking people to lead him by the hand.
(Acts 13:12 [Net])

(Acts 28:6 [Net])But they were expecting that he was going to swell up or suddenly drop dead. So after they had waited a long time and had seen nothing unusual happen to him, they changed their minds and said he was a god.
