The Church Prospers

^31 (A)Then the ^[a]churches throughout all Judea, Galilee, and Samaria had peace and were ^(B)edified.^[b] And walking in the ^(C)fear of the Lord and in the ^(D)comfort of the Holy Spirit, they were ^(E)multiplied.

⁵² And the disciples ^(A)were filled with joy and ^(B)with the Holy Spirit.

^28 (A)Therefore take heed to yourselves and to all the flock, among which the Holy Spirit ^(B)has made you overseers, to shepherd the church ^[a]of God ^(C)which He purchased ^(D)with His own blood.

¹³ In Him you also trusted, after you heard ^(A)the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation; in whom also, having believed, ^(B)you were sealed with the Holy Spirit of promise,

¹⁴ That good thing which was committed to you, keep by the Holy Spirit who dwells in us.
