Discuss Acts 2 Page 42

Yes, evangelist Chatauna Robinson, Acts 2: 38 says when we can receive the Holy Ghost when we can befriend Him. "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. " When we repent, when we get down to the rivers of baptism for the remission of sins. More than stating this to be the condition, this verse helps us to understand the condition of the soul, expected by God if we wish the Holy Ghost to reside in our body. Amen.

First I 'd like to say it 's great to have the Official King James Bible online ministry of different faiths in the King James Bible, that 's what 's still great about America, freedom of religion. I know I have my own faith in believing and that 's in the finished work of Jesus Christ 's Death, Blood and Resurrection. Last I 'd like to say I agree with brother Jacob 's views that I believe he has God 's gift of great wisdom in the Word of God on all his comments he has on all of Acts 2:38. I close this comment believing brother Jacob 's views is needed on the comments that 's been made in Psalm 83.

i love the bible

3000 and 5000 people received the baptism of the Holy Ghost after water baptism.

Believe on who Jesus is Rev.1:7-8 .... What He did on the Cross for all the human race .... When that has taken place and a person has confessed it with their mouth , and believed in their heart Romans 10:9 .... They are called to baptism in the name of Jesus Christ to release all sin as they receive the promise Acts 2:38-39

Hi Annie verse 10 Jesus was letting Simon know that he was going to use him to catch men by showing them the way to truth that their souls may be saved. In Matthew 16: 18-19 Jesus told Peter which is Simon Peter that he was giving him the keys to the kingdom of heaven and as you read following Peter he told in Acts 2:36-47 what must we do to be saved and this is the key Jesus gave him which is true for all of us today until the end. Just keep reading, praying and seeking God for understanding . God Bless

You only need the English King James Version. It is the Scriptures in English. When you need the Hebrew or Greek translation, God will let you know. For example see Revelation 9:11, etc.

I get more confused about the truth of translations and the meaning of greek translation,

Amen brother Jacob 's comment on 3 13 2015, 9:52 am... Right on. They just can 't see the Apostle Paul was given the Gospel of the Grace of God through His only Son 's Jesus Christ, Birth, Death and Resurrection. Ephesians Ch. 3, VS.1 thru 8.

When Peter quotes Joel in verse 21 neither he nor Joel, at this point, knew the things involved in a Blood atonement for sinners, applied to the soul by a spiritual circumcision Col 2:11-12 . Paul wasn 't saved yet so the mystery wasn 't revealed yet see Eph chapter 3. Repentance and remission of sins Luke 24:47 is known to them but only in the context of John 's baptism cf. Mk 1:4, Acts 2:38. When Peter is in Cornelius ' hime, he is quite startled to learn that REMISSION OF SINS can be obtained by belief alone see Acts 10:45. This shows that a thing can be there without being known, and that the time of revelation of truth has little to do with the ORIGIN of truth. Acts 2:38 contradicts church age doctrine revealed to the apostle Paul EPH 3 . You are saved today by putting your faith and trust in the shed blood of Jesus Christ. The gospel or good news of the Church Age is in 1 Cor 15:1-4 with no water baptism mentioned.

Acts 2 is the birth of the church. Peter stood up with the eleven other Apostles, including the new one. Matthew was present when Peter stood up to preach just as he was in Mathew 28:18-20 which says the eleven was the ones being spoken to. Note: Eleven Mathew did not pull Peter 's Coat tail and demand Peter to cease this Jesus Name Water Baptism. 1 Mattew was pined some 20 years after the events of Acts 2. 2 Acts 2:38 was preached as written for more than 40 years in the Act 's history of the church. 3 Acts 10:44-48, Acts 19:1-7 Paul clearly preaches the same message of Jesus Christ. Repentance, Water baptism in Jesus Name, Baptism of Spirit. Water Baptism was deluted with doctrines of Rome and of men in the 2nd and 3rd century. All records bible and history state that the Apostles agreed on the method and mode of Water baptism in the Name of Jesus up until about the 2nd and 3rd century. It is clear that this was and still is the True Good News of the Founding True fathers of The Early Church!

Hi Everyone, Do it for your own soul cause if you do not obey the scriptures as the command comes from JESUS himself in Matthew 16:17-19 giving the commission to Peter you will loose your soul and the day of Pentecost Peter spoke and told what must everyone do to be saved in Acts 2. It 's real it 's real and you will never regret that you took the time to yourself and prayed to God above on your Knees asking him to search your heart and cleanse you from all of your sins and of course ask for the Holy Ghost I dare any sincere hearted person to do just what I said, you will begin to fill his presence come upon you but don 't be afraid just keep praying until he fill your soul with this Precious Holy Ghost just try it for your own soul, how could you go wrong talking to the only God above ? God bless everyone!!

Acts 2:1-6 is a preparation for the last days, and the things that will follow are found throughout the O.T. in many passages. The Great Tribulation and the Day of the Lord are the subject matter of nearly two thirds of the O.T. Peter did not say THESE THINGS are the fulfillment of what Joel said, and that is whe he would have had to say if he were referring to the cloven tongues, the rushing wind, and the spoken languages as the fulfillment of Joel 2. As a matter of fact, the other tongues are a fulfillment of Isa 28:11-12 not Joel. Israel, here, is being given a second chance to get right after Christ 's prayer in Luke 23:34 . We are dealing with a renewed offer of the Kingdom and it is valid until the final rejection in Acts 7. All those things of Joel were postponed until the Church Age is over. The Spirit hasn 't yet been poured out on all flesh and those signs in the Sun and Moon are yet to take place. You are preaching another gospel in Acts 2 for today.

In the translators to the reader in the front of most King James Bibles a quote says "I do not admit that which thou bringest in of thine own head or store without Scripture. The quote on 3 9 2015 quotes no Scripture. Jesus is not a little g god, He is the Almighty Rev 1:8. Jesus name water baptism of Acts 2:38 saves on one today. That is before the church age doctrines were revealed to Paul see Eph chapter 3. They were allowed to be added to the Church vs 41 but Acts is a transitional book from the Law to grace. He allowed them in that way because the Kingdom Acts 1:6 was still being offered to Israel until the stoning of Stephen in chapter 7. Notice Acts 2:38 isn 't preached again. Peter himself by Acts 15 realizes the shift from law to grace in verses 9-11.

Just a lesser version of Matthew 28:19 .... Still Acts 2:38 .... It took me reading Acts 2:38 , hundreds of times before I was able to receive it with all my heart!... It was taught to me by the same Holy Spirit that Peter the Apostle was empowered with on the day of Pentecost .... Something to ponder

A person can not be saved without being filled with the holy ghost and there is no other name given by which we must be saved Jesus the name Jesus is god and god all by himself . Now baptism in Jesus name gives you this promise and god is not slack concerning his promises. Here 's another secret though its all about your heart and where u are concerning repentance the holy ghost is not given just because you are baptized in Jesus name its given when you truly want it and you break down sorrowfully humbly realizing your desperate need for Jesus to save your soul this can happen with out baptism look at john and the thief on the cross the lord can and will save who he so chooses and who humbly seeks him above and beyond all things although without his name there is no power and there is no promise it is a lot less likely for you to come into the truth and truly accept Jesus the name the one lord and the one baptism

I loved this part because it 's true, I need to save myselve from this untoward generation.

In Acts 2:39 it explains that a person has to be "called " by the Lord JESUS our GOD , to receive this truth ! ..

Jesus, Himself told Nicodemus, in St John 3:1-7, "Marvel not...you Must be born again, of the water and the Spirit-Holy Ghost. Peter, in Acts 2:37-39, was speaking to the people the gospel of Jesus Christ-repentance for the remission of sins, whereby all men must be saved. Then, you Shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost.Sinners want to know what 's wrong with Christians today. We-Christians have to repent, daily, and do our first works over-preach Jesus Christ and Him crucified,through repentance-foundational messages. Countless souls die,daily, so we have to speak the life of Jesus Christ into people. May Gods ' tried and true Saints continue to hold up the blood-stained banner for the Lord. I, too am salvaged goods-redeemed by the blood of Jesus from drinking, sexual promiscuity, partying, and all things I THOUGHT I was grown enough to do. I committed my selfish will to God 's will for my life, for Holy is the way.

In Acts 7: 51-60 is where Stephen was trying to tell everyone about the Lord and they stoned him to death cause he called them saying Ye stiffnecked and uncircumcised in heart and ears, ye do always resist the Holy Ghost: as your fathers did, so do ye. Which of the prophets have not your fathers persecuted? and they have slain them which shewed before of the coming of the Just One of whom ye have been now the betrayers and murderers: As of today to many people are listing to those that have no structure in there own lives but we have to be honest with ourselves first in order to get to God in truth. Acts 2:38-47 is really real it has been real for over 16 years in my life. After receiving the Holy Ghost I no longer smoke, use drugs or alcohol anymore! Hallelujah

The word was both touching and encouraging at the same time..we give God all The glory.

Hello everyone to know the truth of God word, Jesus gave the keys to Peter in Matthew 16:18-19 and on the day of Pentecost Peter used those keys when he was asked a question What must we do ? In Acts 2:36-47 read these scriptures and with a sincere heart get to a private place to pray and ask God if this Holy Ghost is real today ? Repent for all of yours sins first then ask him if it 's real to allow you to be filled with his spirit which is the Holy Ghost. I promise you will not regret it, whats wrong with trying it for yourself or how can you go wrong talking to the one upon the throne ? Do it for your own soul. Stay in prayer asking for God presence and don 't be afraid. God Bless everyone!

just randomly chose this for my verse today, but so fitting because so much hatred and chaos in the world today, must trouble and distress Jesus just as all ppl who love HIM. God bless us all

Hello everyone as I was reading the comments it was very touching but what must be clearly understood is the saving message that was given to Peter by Jesus himself in Matt.16:18-19 the keys to the kingdom of heaven, now I don 't know about anyone else but I would rather be safe than sorry. After Jesus had spoken to Peter about the gates of hell shall not prevail against the Church in Matthew as read above scriptures was given. Myself I would follow Peter to see where, when and how those keys were going to be used. As in Acts 2:36-47 The Lord added to the Church daily such as should be saved. I received the Holy Ghost in April 17,1998 and it still works and I promise if you will just give God some of your time and find you a private place to pray and repent for all of your sins then ask God to fill you with the Holy Ghost and you will not regret it. God Bless everyone!

But we preach Christ crucified, unto the Jews a stumblingblock, and unto the Greeks foolishness But unto them which are called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ the power of God and the wisdom of God. I Corinthians Chapter 1 Vs. 23 24. and in I Corinthians Chapter 2 V. 2 says. For I determined not to know anything among you, save Jesus Christ, and him crucified.

Jesus himself is a word of God, He who accept God 's words and fix his eyes on Jesus will have life. Once we invite the Holy Spirit to dwell in us we will understand his words. Through Jesus death by sheding his blood our sins are cleanse and forgiven, He always confirmed his love and mercy to us by healing us, forgiving our sins and bring us to life, this is the signs, wonders, and miracles that God has provided us. We must believe Jesus that He is the Son of the Living God, the only way the truth and the life, no man comes to the Father except thru Jesus. Jesus loves us, Everything is possible with Christ and he is attractive to wipe our tears.. there is no need to understand the theory how and why God blesses us.. Only believe him that Jesus is the Son of the living God.. Give thanks and praised him for everything he has done to us..

To Joni Gs, Acts 2 Chapter comment on 2 05 2015, 1:40 PM. You said I am going to do what Jesus says and not some convoluted other partial way. Well are you casting out devils now like Mark 16: V.17 says or taking up serpents or drinking any deadly things like in verse 18. You need to be a missionary and go to the Middle East and convert ISIS, I bet they would not give you anything deadly to drink. Honestly all in love you need to read C.I. Scofield 's 1917 Ref. Bible page 1069 notes 16 9.

I believe that God looks at our Heart, not whether we are male nor female, as Galatians 3:28 teaches us, There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither male nor female for ye are all one in Christ Jesus. Too, Acts 2:17 teaches us---------And it shall come to pass in the last days, saith God, I will pour out my Spirit upon all flesh: and your sons and daughters shall prophesy and your young men shall see visions and your old men shall dream dreams. We all are one. Again, God looks at our hearts, not whether I am a man or woman. He loves us all and there is room in His Kingdom for each of us. Let 's all trust and allow God to put us in the positions he wants us to be as He will equip us with His Wisdom and the means to do whatever He would have us to do. We all just need to depend on God, not man nor woman. God Bless you.

When Jesus asked the disciples to go into all the world and preach the Gospel in the great commission in Mark 16:15-16 and Matthew 28-19-20, He didn 't say make disciples of believers and baptize Jews only. He didn 't say belief is enough for Gentiles. I am going to do what Jesus says and not some convoluted other partial way.
