20 Then that time will come when the Lord will give you fresh strength. He will send you Jesus, his chosen Messiah.
21 But Jesus must stay in heaven until God makes all things new, just as his holy prophets promised long ago.
22 Moses said, “The Lord your God will choose one of your own people to be a prophet, just as he chose me. Listen to everything he tells you.
23 No one who disobeys that prophet will be one of God's people any longer.”
24 Samuel and all the other prophets who came later also spoke about what is now happening.
25 You are really the ones God told his prophets to speak to. And you were given the promise that God made to your ancestors. He said to Abraham, “All nations on earth will be blessed because of someone from your family.”
26 God sent his chosen Son to you first, because God wanted to bless you and make each one of you turn away from your sins.
