MOST CERTAINLY

And Peter opened his mouth and said:

Most certainly and thoroughly I now

perceive and understand that God

shows no partiality and is no

respecter of persons.

But in every nation he who

fear of God, treating Him with worshipful

nor understand these things?

I assure you, most solemnly I tell you, We speak only of what we

do not receive our testimony.
