100 CITY OF GOD
delivered up by the determinate counsel and foreknowl
edge of God, you, by the hands of wicked men, have
crucified and slain. He was a holy Man, approved of
God in his virtues, by miracles and prodigies wrought in
the midst of your people, of which you know and are
witnesses. And God has raised Him from the dead,
according to the prophecies of David. For that holy
king could not speak of himself, since you have his
sepulchre in your midst, where lies his body. He spoke
as a prophet of Christ, and we are ourselves witnesses
as having seen Him risen and ascending into heaven by
his own power, to be seated at the right hand of the
Father, as likewise David has prophesied (Os. 15, 8;
Ps. 109, 1). Let the unbelievers understand these words
of truth, which they wish to deny in the perfidy of their
malice ;
for against them stand the wonders of the Most
High which wrought in us as witnesses to the doctrine
of Christ and to his admirable Resurrection."
78. "Let then the whole house of Israel understand,
and let them be assured, that God hath made this Jesus,
whom you have crucified, his Anointed and the Lord of
all, and that He has raised Him from the dead on the
third day."
On hearing these words the hearts of many,
that stood there, were moved to compunction and with
great wailing they
asked saint
Peter and the rest of the
Apostles, what they should do for their salvation (Acts
2, 37). Thereupon saint Peter said to them: "Do pen
ance and be baptized every one of you in the name of
Jesus Christ, for the remission of sins and ;
you shall re
ceive the gift of the Holy Ghost. For the promise is
to you, and to your children, and to all that are far off,
whomsoever the Lord our God shall call. Seek there
fore now to make use of the remedy, and to save your
selves from this perverse and incredulous generation."
