Acts 10:8-32
and after he had explained everything to them, he sent them to Joppa.On the next day, as they were on their way and approaching the city, Peter went up on the housetop about the sixth hour to pray.But he became hungry and wanted to eat; but while they were making preparations, he fell into a trance;and he* saw the sky opened up, and an object like a great sheet coming down, lowered by four corners to the ground,and on it were all kinds of four footed animals and crawling creatures of the earth and birds of the sky.A voice came to him,“ Get up, Peter, kill and eat!”But Peter said,“ By no means, Lord, for I have never eaten anything unholy and unclean.”Again a voice came to him a second time,“ What God has cleansed, no longer consider unholy.”This happened three times, and immediately the object was taken up into the sky.Now while Peter was greatly perplexed in mind as to what the vision which he had seen might mean, behold, the men who had been sent by Cornelius had asked directions to Simon’s house, and they appeared at the gate;and calling out, they were asking whether Simon, who was also called Peter, was staying there.While Peter was reflecting on the vision, the Spirit said to him,“ Behold, three men are looking for you.But get up, go downstairs and accompany them without misgivings, for I have sent them Myself.”Peter went down to the men and said,“ Behold, I am the one you are looking for; what is the reason for which you have come?”They said,“ Cornelius, a centurion, a righteous and God fearing man well spoken of by the entire nation of the Jews, was divinely directed by a holy angel to send for you to come to his house and hear a message from you.”So he invited them in and gave them lodging. Now on the next day he got ready and went away with them, and some of the brothers from Joppa accompanied him.On the following day he entered Caesarea. Now Cornelius was expecting them and had called together his relatives and close friends.When Peter entered, Cornelius met him, and fell at his feet and worshiped him.But Peter helped him up, saying,“ Stand up; I, too, am just a man.”As he talked with him, he entered and* found many people assembled.And he said to them,“ You yourselves know that it is forbidden for a Jewish man to associate with or visit a foreigner; and yet God has shown me that I am not to call any person unholy or unclean.That is why I came without even raising any objection when I was sent for. So I ask, for what reason did you send for me?”Cornelius said,“ Four days ago to this hour, I was praying in my house during the ninth hour; and behold, a man stood before me in shining clothing,and he* said,‘ Cornelius, your prayer has been heard and your charitable gifts have been remembered before God.Therefore send some men to Joppa and invite Simon, who is also called Peter, to come to you; he is staying at the house of Simon the tanner, by the sea.’

Acts 11:5-14
“ I was in the city of Joppa praying; and in a trance I saw a vision, an object coming down like a great sheet lowered by four corners from the sky; and it came to where I was,and I stared at it and was thinking about it, and I saw the four footed animals of the earth, the wild animals, the crawling creatures, and the birds of the sky.I also heard a voice saying to me,‘ Get up, Peter; kill and eat.’But I said,‘ By no means, Lord, for nothing unholy or unclean has ever entered my mouth.’But a voice from heaven answered a second time,‘ What God has cleansed, no longer consider unholy.’This happened three times, and everything was drawn back up into the sky.And behold, at that moment three men who had been sent to me from Caesarea came up to the house where we were staying.And the Spirit told me to go with them without misgivings. These six brothers also went with me, and we entered the man’s house.And he reported to us how he had seen the angel standing in his house, and saying,‘ Send some men to Joppa and have Simon, who is also called Peter, brought here;and he will speak words to you by which you will be saved, you and all your household.’
