elsie, here's an opportunity to re-post your rebuttal.
 
 
It's a bit long... those who wish to see it context can link to the above, or mybe, just MAYBE, they could READ THE Book!  ;^)
 
Here.. I'll strip out the pertinant verses for ya'll!

 
 
Acts 3
 13.  The God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, the God of our fathers, has glorified his servant Jesus. You handed him over to be killed, and you disowned him before Pilate, though he had decided to let him go.
 14.  You disowned the Holy and Righteous One and asked that a murderer be released to you.
 15.  You killed the author of life, but God raised him from the dead. We are witnesses of this. 
 26.  When God raised up his servant, he sent him first to you to bless you by turning each of you from your wicked ways."
 
 

Acts 4 
 10.  then know this, you and all the people of Israel: It is by the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, whom you crucified but whom God raised from the dead, that this man stands before you healed.
 11.  He is "`the stone you builders rejected, which has become the capstone. '
 12.  Salvation is found in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given to men by which we must be saved."
 
 27.  Indeed Herod and Pontius Pilate met together with the Gentiles and the people  of Israel in this city to conspire against your holy servant Jesus, whom you anointed. 
 
 
 
 Acts 5

 28.  "We gave you strict orders not to teach in this name," he said. "Yet you have filled Jerusalem with your teaching and are determined to make us guilty of this man's blood."
 29.  Peter and the other apostles replied: "We must obey God rather than men!
 30.  The God of our fathers raised Jesus from the dead--whom you had killed by hanging him on a tree.
 31.  God exalted him to his own right hand as Prince and Savior that he might give repentance and forgiveness of sins to Israel.
 32.  We are witnesses of these things, and so is the Holy Spirit, whom God has given to those who obey him."
 33.  When they heard this, they were furious and wanted to put them to death.
 
 
Acts 6
 
 9.  Opposition arose, however, from members of the Synagogue of the Freedmen (as it was called)--Jews of Cyrene and Alexandria as well as the provinces of Cilicia and Asia. These men began to argue with Stephen,
 10.  but they could not stand up against his wisdom or the Spirit by whom he spoke. 
 
 
 Acts 7
 
 51.  "You stiff-necked people, with uncircumcised hearts and ears! You are just like your fathers: You always resist the Holy Spirit!
 52.  Was there ever a prophet your fathers did not persecute? They even killed those who predicted the coming of the Righteous One. And now you have betrayed and murdered him--
 53.  you who have received the law that was put into effect through angels but have not obeyed it."
