And this peace will control the way you think and feel. (CEV)

So the priest brought some bulls and flowers to the city gates. 14Whenthe two apostles found out about this, they tore their clothes in horrorand ran to the crowd, shouting: 15Why are you doing this? Weare humans just like you. Please give up all this foolishness.Turnto the living God, who made the sky, the earth, the sea, and everythingin them.16In times past, God let each nation go its ownway. 17 But he showed that he was there by the good things hedid. God sends rain from heaven and makes your crops grow. He gives foodto you and makes your hearts glad. (CEV)
