And entering into one of the ships, which was Simon's, he asked him to put out a little from the land, and sat down and taught the multitudes from the ship. read more.
And when he ceased speaking, he said to Simon, Put out into the deep water, and let down your nets for a draught. And Simon answered and said to him, Master, we have labored all night and taken nothing; but at your word I will let down the net. And doing this he enclosed a great number of fishes; and their net broke. And he made signs to his companions in the other ship to come and help him; and they came, and filled both ships, so that they began to sink. And Simon Peter seeing it fell on his knees to Jesus, saying, Depart from me, Lord, for I am a sinful man. For he was amazed, and all that were with him, at the draught of fishes which they had taken. So also were James and John, sons of Zebedee, who were partners with Simon. And Jesus said to Simon, Fear not; from this time you shall take men. And bringing the ships to the land they left all and followed him.

Acts 11:1-18

AND the apostles and brothers who were in Judea heard that the gentiles received the word of God. And when Peter went up to Jerusalem, those of the circumcision contended with him, saying, You went in to men that were uncircumcised, and eat with them. read more.
And Peter began and related to them in order, saying, I was in the city of Joppa praying, and I saw a vision in a trance, a vessel like a great sheet descending, let down by the four corners from heaven, and it came to me; and looking into it attentively I perceived and saw the quadrupeds of the earth and wild beasts and reptiles and birds of heaven. And I heard a voice saying to me, Arise, Peter, kill and eat. And I said, By no means, Lord, for nothing common or impure has ever entered into my mouth. And a voice answered from heaven a second time, What God has purified do not you regard common. And this was done thrice, and again all were taken up to heaven. And behold, immediately three men came to the house in which I was, being sent for me from Caesarea. And the Spirit told me to go with them. And these six brothers also went with me, and we entered into the house of the man. And he told us how he had seen the angel in his house standing and saying to him, Send to Joppa and call Simon who is called Peter, who will speak words to you by which you shall be saved and all your house. And when I began to speak the Holy Spirit fell on them as also on us in the beginning. And I remembered the word of the Lord how he said, John indeed baptized with water, but you shall be baptized with the Holy Spirit. If therefore God gave the gift equally to them and to us, who believed on the Lord Jesus Christ, who was I that I should be able to forbid God? And hearing these things they were silent, and glorified God, saying, Then to the gentiles also has God indeed given the change of mind to life.

Acts 15:7-11

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.

John 21:1-23

After these things he showed himself again to the disciples at the lake of Tiberias; and he showed himself thus. Simon Peter, and Thomas called the Twin, and Nathaniel who was from Cana in Galilee, and the sons of Zebedee, and two others of his disciples were together. Simon Peter said to them, I am going a fishing. They said to him, We will also go with you. They went out and entered into the ship; and on that night caught nothing, read more.
but when it was now morning Jesus stood on the shore; but the disciples knew not that it was Jesus. Then Jesus said to them, Children, have you any thing to eat? They answered him, No. And he said to them, Cast the net on the right side of the ship and you shall find. Then they cast it, and they were not able to draw it from the number of fishes. Then that disciple whom Jesus loved said to Peter, It is the Lord. Then Simon Peter, hearing that it was the Lord, girded on his coat, for he was naked, and cast himself into the lake. But the other disciples came with the boat, drawing the net of fishes, for they were not far from the land, but about two hundred cubits distant. Then when they came to land they saw coals placed, and a fish laid upon [them], and bread. Jesus said to them, Bring of the fish that you have now caught. Simon Peter went and drew the net to the land, full of great fishes a hundred and fifty-three; and though there were so many the net was not broken. Jesus said to them, Come and breakfast. No one of the disciples dared to ask him, Who are you? for they knew that he was the Lord. Jesus came and took the bread and gave them, and the fish likewise. This was now the third time that Jesus appeared to his disciples after he had arisen from the dead. When therefore they had breakfasted, Jesus said to Simon Peter, Simon, son of John, do you love me more than these? He said to him, Yes, Lord, you know that I am a friend to you. He said to him, Feed my lambs. Again he said to him a second time; Simon, son of John, do you love me? He said to him, Yes, Lord, you know that I am a friend to you. He said to him, Feed my sheep. He said to him a third time; Simon, son of John, are you a friend to me? Peter was grieved that he said to him the third time, Are you a friend to me? and he said to him, Lord you know all things; you know that I am a friend to you. Jesus said to him, Feed my sheep. I tell you most truly, that when you were young you girded yourself and walked where you would; but when you become old, you shall stretch out your hands and another shall bind you and carry you where you would not; but he said this signifying by what death he should glorify God; and having said this, he said to him, Follow me. And Peter turning around saw the disciple whom Jesus loved following, who also reclined at the supper on his breast and said, Lord, who is it that is to betray you? Peter seeing him said to Jesus, Lord, and what shall this man [do]? Jesus said to him, If I wish him to continue till I come, what is that to you? follow me. The report then went out among the brothers that this disciple would not die; but Jesus said not to him, He shall not die; but, If I wish him to continue till I come, what is that to you?

Simon Peter said to him, Lord, not my feet only, but my hands and my head. Jesus said to him, He that is washed needs only that his feet should be washed, but is wholly pure; and you are pure, but not all. For he knew him that was to betray him; therefore, he said, You are not all pure.

And in those days Peter standing up in the midst of the brothers, said??he multitude together was about a hundred and twenty??16 Men and brothers, it was necessary that the Scripture should be fulfilled which the Holy Spirit spoke before by the mouth of David, concerning Judas who became a guide to them that apprehended Jesus; For he was numbered with us, and obtained the inheritance of this service. This man therefore purchased a field with the price of the wickedness, and falling headlong burst in the middle and all his bowels were poured out; read more.
and this became known to all who lived at Jerusalem, so that that field was called in their language Aceldamach, which is Field of blood. For it is written in the book of Psalms, Let his dwelling be desolate and let no one dwell in it, and his superintendency let another take. It is necessary therefore that one of the men who have gone with us all the time in which the Lord Jesus went in and out among us, beginning from the baptism of John till the day on which he was taken up from us, should be made with us a witness of his resurrection.

in which were all the quadrupeds and reptiles of the earth, and birds of heaven. And a voice came to him, Arise, Peter, kill and eat.

And this was done thrice, and immediately the vessel was taken up to heaven.

And giving her his hand he raised her up, and calling the saints and widows presented her living. And this was known in all Joppa, and many believed on the Lord. And Peter continued many days at Joppa with one Simon a tanner.

And the chief priest arose, and all those with him, being the sect of the Sadducees, and were filled with wrath, and laid hands on the apostles, and put them in the public prison. But an angel of the Lord opening the prison doors by night led them out and said, read more.
Go, stand and speak in the temple to the people all the words of this life. And hearing this they entered into the temple early in the morning and taught. And the chief priest coming, and those with him, called the Sanhedrim together, and all the eldership of the children of Israel, and sent to the prison to have them brought. But the officers going did not find them in the prison; and returning they reported, saying, The prison found we shut with all safety, and the guards standing before the doors, but opening we found no one within. And when they heard these words, both the priest and the commander of the temple and the chief priests doubted concerning them, what this could mean. But some one came and told them, Behold, the men whom you put in prison are standing in the temple, and teaching the people. Then the commander going away with the officers brought them without violence, for they feared the people, lest they should be stoned; and having brought them they placed them before the Sanhedrim. And the chief priest asked them, saying, We charged you strictly not to teach in this name, and behold, you have filled Jerusalem with your teaching, and wish to bring this man's blood on us. And Peter answering, and the apostles, said, It is necessary to obey God rather than man. The God of our fathers raised up Jesus, whom you took and hung on a cross; him has God exalted, a Prince and Saviour at his right hand, to give a change of mind to Israel and the forgiveness of sins. And we are his witnesses of these things, and also the Holy Spirit which God has given to those that obey him. And when they heard this they were highly offended, and took counsel to kill them. But a certain Pharisee in the Sanhedrim, by the name of Gamaliel, a teacher of the law, in honor with all the people, standing up requested them to put the men out a little while; and he said to them, Men of Israel, take heed to yourselves what you are about to do to these men. For before these days Theudas arose, saying that he was somebody, to whom a number of men, about four hundred, adhered, who was destroyed, and all who obeyed him passed away and came to nothing. After him arose Judas the Galilean, in the days of the census, and drew away people after him; and he was destroyed, and all who obeyed him were dispersed. And now I tell you, abstain from these men, and let them alone; because if this design, or this work, is from men, it will be destroyed; but if it is from God, you cannot destroy them; lest you be found at some time to be fighting against God. And they were persuaded by him, and calling the apostles and scourging them, they charged them not to speak in the name of Jesus, and dismissed them. They went therefore from the presence of the Sanhedrim, rejoicing that they were accounted worthy to suffer shame for the name of [Christ]; and every day in the temple, and from house to house, they ceased not teaching and preaching the good news of Christ Jesus.

But Peter standing up with the eleven lifted up his voice and said to them, Men of Judea, and all who live at Jerusalem, be this known to you, and attend to my words. For these are not drunk as you suppose, for it is the third hour of the day [9 A.M.], but this is what was said by the prophet; read more.
In the last days, says God, I will pour out of my Spirit on all flesh, and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, and your young men shall see visions, and your old men shall dream dreams; and upon my male servants and upon my female servants in those days will I pour out of my Spirit, and they shall prophesy. And I will show prodigies in heaven above and signs on the earth below, blood and fire and a cloud of smoke. The sun shall be turned into darkness and the moon into blood, before the great and illustrious day of the Lord comes. And whoever shall call on the name of the Lord shall be saved. Men of Israel, hear these words; Jesus the Nazoraean, a man approved by God to you by mighty works and prodigies and miracles, which God performed by him in the midst of you, as you yourselves know, this man, delivered up by the determinate counsel and foreknowledge of God, you have affixed to the cross, and killed by the hand of the wicked, him has God raised up, having loosed the pains of death, as it was not possible that he should be held by it. For David says of him, I saw the Lord always before me, he is on my right hand that I should not be moved; therefore my heart rejoiced and my tongue was glad, and my flesh, moreover, shall also live in hope; for thou wilt not leave my soul in hades, nor suffer thy Holy One to see destruction. Thou hast made me know the ways of life, thou wilt fill me with joy with thy presence. Men and brothers, let me speak to you freely of the patriarch David, that he both died and was buried, and his tomb is with us to this day. Being therefore a prophet, and knowing that God swore with an oath to him to set a descendant of his on his throne, foreseeing he spoke of the resurrection of Christ, that he was not left in hades neither did his flesh see destruction. This Jesus has God raised up, whose witnesses we all are. Being therefore exalted on the right hand of God, and receiving the promise of the Holy Spirit from the Father, he has poured this out which you both see and hear. For David ascended not to heaven, but he says, The Lord said to my lord, Sit on my right hand till I make your enemies your footstool. Let all the house of Israel therefore know certainly, that God has made this Jesus whom you crucified both Lord and Christ. And hearing [this] they were distressed in mind, and said to Peter and the rest of the apostles, Men and brothers, what shall we do? And Peter said to them, Change your minds, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of sins, and you shall receive the gift of the Holy Spirit. For the promise is to you and your children, and to all that are afar off, as many as the Lord our God shall call. And with many other words he testified and exhorted, saying, Save yourselves from this perverse generation.

But Peter said, Ananias, why has Satan filled your heart that you should lie to the Holy Spirit, and that you should keep back a part of the price of the land? read more.
Continuing unsold was it not yours, and when it was sold was it not at your disposal? Why did you propose this thing in your heart? You have not lied to men but to God. And Ananias hearing these words fell down and expired; and great fear was upon all who heard. And the young men arose and laid him out, and having carried him out buried him. And after an interval of about three hours, his wife, not knowing what had happened, came in. And Peter answered her, Tell me whether you sold the field for so much? And she said, Yes; for so much. And Peter said to her, Why have you agreed together to try the Spirit of the Lord? Behold, the feet of those that buried your husband are at the door, and they shall carry you out. And she fell down immediately at his feet, and expired; and the young men coming in found her dead, and carried her out, and buried her by her husband. And great fear was on all the assembly [church], and on all that heard of these things.

Peter » Accused by the council; his defense

Acts 4:1-23

And while they were speaking to the people, the priests, and the commander of the temple, and the Sadducees came upon them, being displeased because they taught the people and declared by Jesus the resurrection of the dead; and they laid hands on them and put them in prison till the next day; for it was now evening. read more.
But many of those that heard the word believed, and the number of the men became about five thousand. And on the next day the rulers, and elders, and scribes assembled at Jerusalem, and Annas the chief priest, and Caiaphas, and John, and Alexander, and all that were of the family of the chief priesthood, and placing them in the midst, asked, By what power, or by what name, have you done this? Then Peter, full of the Holy Spirit, said to them, Rulers of the people and elders of Israel, if we are to-day examined concerning the good work done to the sick man, by what means he has been cured, be it known to you all, and to all the people of Israel, that in the name of Jesus Christ the Nazoraean, whom you crucified, whom God raised from the dead, by him has this man stood before you sound. This is the stone rejected by you builders, which has become the head of a corner. And there is salvation in no other; for there is no other name given under heaven among men, by which we can be saved. And seeing the boldness of Peter and John, and supposing that they were illiterate and common men, they wondered, and perceived that they had been with Jesus; and seeing the man standing with them cured, they could not dispute it. And commanding them to withdraw from the Sanhedrim, they conferred one with another, saying, What shall we do to these men? for that a notable miracle has been performed by them is manifest to all that live at Jerusalem, and we cannot deny it; but that it spread no further among the people, let us threaten them severely, [and charge them] to speak no more to any man in this name. And calling them, they charged them not to speak or teach at all in the name of Jesus.

Acts 3:12-26

And Peter seeing it answered the people, Men of Israel, why do you wonder at this? or why do you look intently at us as if by our power or piety we had made him walk?

but killed the Prince of life, whom God has raised from the dead, whose witnesses we are. And by the faith of his name, his name has made strong this man whom you behold and know, and the faith which is by him has given him this entire soundness before you all. And now, brothers, I know that you did it without knowledge, as did also your rulers; but what God had before declared by the mouth of all the prophets that his Anointed should suffer, he has so accomplished. Change your minds, therefore, and turn yourselves, that your sins may be blotted out, that times of refreshing may come from the presence of the Lord, and he send to you Jesus Christ before appointed, whom heaven must receive till the times of the restoration of all things of which God has spoken by the mouth of his holy prophets since the world began. Moses indeed said, A prophet shall the Lord your God raise up to you, of your brothers, like me; him shall you hear in all things which he shall speak to you; and every soul which will not hear that prophet shall be destroyed from the people. And all the prophets, from Samuel and those following him in order, who have spoken, have also announced these days. You are the children of the prophets, and of the promise which God promised to our fathers, saying to Abraham, And in your offspring shall all the families of the earth be blessed. God having raised up his servant has sent him to you first, to bless you by turning each [one of you] from your evil ways.
