Explanation:

Question 3

To determine why the inhabitants of Lydda and Sharon turned to the Lord, we refer to biblical accounts (Acts 9:32 - 42). Peter healed a paralytic man (Aeneas) who had been bedridden for 8 years in Lydda, which led many to turn to the Lord. Among the options, option c matches this event.

For the people of Joppa turning to the Lord, the biblical account (Acts 9:36 - 42) tells that Peter raised Tabitha (Dorcas) from the dead. Option a describes Peter bringing Tabitha back to life, which aligns with this event and the subsequent conversion of Joppa's people.

Answer:

c. because Peter healed a paralyzed man who had been confined to bed for 8 years.
