18 Then once more you shall ^fsee the distinction between the righteous and the wicked, between one who serves God and one who does not serve him.

Acts 11:2-18

2 So when Peter went up to Jerusalem, ^gthe circumcision party ^{▼▼Or Jerusalem, those of the circumcision} criticized him, saying, 3 ⁱ“You went to uncircumcised men and ^jate with them.” 4 But Peter began and explained it to them in order: 5 ^k“I was in the city of Joppa praying, and in a trance I saw a vision, something like a great sheet descending, being let down from heaven by its four corners, and it came down to me. 6 Looking at it closely, I observed animals and beasts of prey and reptiles and birds of the air. 7 And I heard a voice saying to me, ‘Rise, Peter; kill and eat.’ 8 But I said, ‘By no means, Lord; for nothing common or unclean has ever entered my mouth.’ 9 But the voice answered a second time from heaven, ‘What God has made clean, do not call common.’ 10 This happened three times, and all was drawn up again into heaven. 11 And behold, at that very moment three men arrived at the house in which we were, sent to me from Caesarea. 12 And the Spirit told me to go with them, ^lmaking no distinction. ^mThese six brothers also accompanied me, and we entered the man’s house. 13 And he told us how he had seen the angel stand in his house and say, ‘Send to Joppa and bring Simon who is called Peter; 14 ⁿhe will declare to you a message by which ^oyou will be saved, you and all your household.’ 15 As I began to speak, ^pthe Holy Spirit fell on them ^qjust as on us at the beginning. 16 And I remembered the word of the Lord, how he said, ^r‘John baptized with water, but you will be baptized with the Holy Spirit.’ 17 If then ^sGod gave ^tthe same gift to them as he gave to us ^uwhen we believed in the Lord Jesus Christ, ^vwho was I ^wthat I could stand in God’s way?” 18 When they heard these things they fell silent. And they ^xglorified God, saying, ^y“Then to the Gentiles also God has ^zgranted ^aarepentance that leads to life.”

2 Corinthians 5:11
