After explaining what had taken place in connection with Cornelius and the other believing Gentiles, the apostle concluded with the words: “If, therefore, God gave the same free gift [of holy spirit] to them [those believing Gentiles] as he also did to us [Jews] who have believed upon the Lord Jesus Christ, who was I that I should be able to hinder God? ”
Selgitanud, mis seoses Korneeliuse ja teiste usklike paganatega aset oli leidnud, ütles apostel lõpuks järgmised sõnad: „Kui nüüd Jumal neile [nendele usklikele paganatele] on andnud sama [püha vaimu] anni kui meilegi [juutidele], kes usume Issandasse Jeesusesse Kristusesse, kes siis olin mina, et oleksin võinud Jumalat keelata? ”.
