How was Peter delivered later?
Answer
"The angel of the Lord came upon him, and a light shined in the prison: and he smote Peter on the side, and
raised him up, saying, Arise up quickly. And his chains fell off from his hands. . . . And he says unto him,
Cast thy garment about thee, and follow me. And he went out, and followed him; and knew not that it was
true which was done by the angel; but thought he saw a vision. When they were past the first and second
ward, they came unto the iron gate that leads unto the city; which opened to them of his own accord: and
they went out, and passed on through one street, and forthwith the angel departed from him." Acts 12:7-10.
NOTE - "What we call physical law is no obstruction to angelic ministrations. Bolts and bars and
prison gates disappear at their volition, and dungeons like palaces shine in their presence. No place can he
so dismal, no cavern so deep and dark, no Inquisition cell so hidden and fetid, no fortress so strongly
guarded, that they cannot find quick and easy access, if a child of God is there."-"Footprints of Angels in
Fields of Revelation," by E. A. Stockman, Pages 74, 75.
