Abraham, Wherefore did Sarah laugh,
saying, Shall I of a surety bear a
child, which am old?

the LORD? At the time appointed I
will return unto thee, according to the
time of life, and Sarah shall have a
son.

unto his death. And at that time there
was a great persecution against the
church which was at Jerusalem; and
they were all scattered abroad
throughout the regions of Judaea and

havock of the church, entering
into every house, and haling men
and women committed them to
prison.
Act_9:1 And Saul, yet breathing
out threatenings and slaughter
against the disciples of the Lord,
went unto the high priest,
Act 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.
Act 9:3 And as he journeyed, he
came near Damascus: and
suddenly there shined round
about him a light from heaven:
Act_9:4 And he fell to the earth,
and heard a voice saying unto
him, Saul, Saul, why persecutest
thou me?
Act_9:22 But Saul increased the
more in strength, and
confounded the Jews which dwelt
at Damascus, proving that this is
very Christ.
