DAY 9



AC-8:29  Then the Spirit said unto Philip, Go near, and join 
thyself

to this chariot.



AC-8:30  And Philip ran thither to [him], and heard him read the

prophet Esaias, and said, Understandest thou what thou readest?



AC-8:31  And he said, How can I, except some man should guide me?

And he desired Philip that he would come up and sit with him.



AC-8:32  The place of the scripture which he read was this, He 
was

led as a sheep to the slaughter; and like a lamb dumb before his

shearer, so opened he not his mouth:



AC-8:33  In his humiliation his judgment was taken away: and who

shall declare his generation? for his life is taken from the 
earth.



AC-8:34  And the eunuch answered Philip, and said, I pray thee, 
of

whom speaketh the prophet this? of himself, or of some other man?



AC-8:35  Then Philip opened his mouth, and began at the same

scripture, and preached unto him Jesus.



AC-8:36  And as they went on [their] way, they came unto a 
certain

water: and the eunuch said, See, [here is] water; what doth 
hinder

me to be baptized?



AC-8:37  And Philip said, If thou believest with all thine heart,

thou mayest. And he answered and said, I believe that Jesus 
Christ

is the Son of God.



AC-8:38  And he commanded the chariot to stand still: and they 
went

down both into the water, both Philip and the eunuch; and he

baptized him.



AC-8:39  And when they were come up out of the water, the Spirit 
of

the Lord caught away Philip, that the eunuch saw him no more: 
and he

went on his way rejoicing.



AC-8:40  But Philip was found at Azotus: and passing through he

preached in all the cities, till he came to Caesarea.



*AC-9:1  And Saul, yet breathing out threatenings and slaughter

against the disciples of the Lord, went unto the high priest,



AC-9:2  And desired of him letters to Damascus to the synagogues,

that if he found any of this way, whether they were men or women,
 he

might bring them bound unto Jerusalem.



AC-9:3  And as he journeyed, he came near Damascus: and suddenly

there shined round about him a light from heaven:



AC-9:4  And he fell to the earth, and heard a voice saying unto 
him,

Saul, Saul, why persecutest thou me?



AC-9:5  And he said, Who art thou, Lord? And the Lord said, I am

Jesus whom thou persecutest: [it is] hard for thee to kick 
against

the pricks.



AC-9:6  And he trembling and astonished said, Lord, what wilt 
thou

have me to do? And the Lord [said] unto him, Arise, and go into 
the

city, and it shall be told thee what thou must do.



AC-9:7  And the men which journeyed with him stood speechless,

hearing a voice, but seeing no man.



AC-9:8  And Saul arose from the earth; and when his eyes were

opened, he saw no man: but they led him by the hand, and brought

[him] into Damascus.



AC-9:9  And he was three days without sight, and neither did eat 
nor

drink.



AC-9:10  And there was a certain disciple at Damascus, named

Ananias; and to him said the Lord in a vision, Ananias. And he 
said,

Behold, I [am here], Lord.



AC-9:11  And the Lord [said] unto him, Arise, and go into the 
street

which is called Straight, and inquire in the house of Judas for

[one] called Saul, of Tarsus: for, behold, he prayeth,



AC-9:12  And hath seen in a vision a man named Ananias coming in,

and putting [his] hand on him, that he might receive his sight.



AC-9:13  Then Ananias answered, Lord, I have heard by many of 
this

man, how much evil he hath done to thy saints at Jerusalem:



AC-9:14  And here he hath authority from the chief priests to 
bind

all that call on thy name.



AC-9:15  But the Lord said unto him, Go thy way: for he is a 
chosen

vessel unto me, to bear my name before the Gentiles, and kings, 
and

the children of Israel:





AC-9:16  For I will show him how great things he must suffer for 
my

name's sake.





AC-9:17  And Ananias went his way, and entered into the house; 
and

putting his hands on him said, Brother Saul, the Lord, [even] 
Jesus,

that appeared unto thee in the way as thou camest, hath sent me,

that thou mightest receive thy sight, and be filled with the Holy

Ghost.



AC-9:18  And immediately there fell from his eyes as it had been

scales: and he received sight forthwith, and arose, and was

baptized.



AC-9:19  And when he had received meat, he was strengthened. Then

was Saul certain days with the disciples which were at Damascus.



AC-9:20  And straightway he preached Christ in the synagogues, 
that

he is the Son of God.



AC-9:21  But all that heard [him] were amazed, and said; Is not 
this

he that destroyed them which called on this name in Jerusalem, 
and

came hither for that intent, that he might bring them bound unto 
the

chief priests?



AC-9:22  But Saul increased the more in strength, and confounded 
the

Jews which dwelt at Damascus, proving that this is very Christ.
