← Acts 24:13	Acts 24:14 (KJV)	Acts 24:15 →
Neither can they prove the things whereof they now accuse me.	But this I confess unto thee, that after the way which they call heresy, so worship I the God of my fathers, believing all things which are written in the law and in the prophets:	And have hope toward God, which they themselves also allow, that there shall be a resurrection of the dead, both of the just and unjust.
