How To Be Saved!
Acts 2:37 says, “Now when they heard this, they were pricked in their heart, and said unto Peter and to the rest of the apostles, Men and brethren, what shall we do?”
Acts 2:38 says, “Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost.”
“Repent,” mean to think differently! We must start fresh and learn to think according to the Lord!
“Baptism” is an outward symbol of an inward change. From the original text it means total immersion. When one submits in obedience to the conditions of the gospel they by the grace of God are forgiven. Evidence of that forgiveness is not based on some miraculous sign or an emotional feeling, but upon the promise of God.
Acts 2:39 says, “For the promise is unto you, and to your children, and to all that are afar off, even as many as the Lord our God shall call.”
Acts 2:40 says, “And with many other words did he testify and exhort, saying, Save yourselves from this untoward generation.”
Acts 2:41 says, “Then they that gladly received his word were baptized: and the same day there were added unto them about three thousand souls.”
“Save yourselves” only you can make this life-giving, life-changing decision.
Acts 2:42 says, “And they continued stedfastly in the apostles’ doctrine and fellowship, and in breaking of bread, and in prayers.”
