Acts 2:40

Verse 40 of 47. The 2nd of 28 chapters in Acts, in Acts.

36“Let all the house of Israel therefore know certainly that God has made him both Lord and Christ, this Jesus whom you crucified.”

37Now when they heard this, they were cut to the heart, and said to Peter and the rest of the apostles, “Brothers, what shall we do?”

38Peter said to them, “Repent and be baptized, every one of you, in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of sins, and you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.

39For the promise is to you and to your children, and to all who are far off, even as many as the Lord our God will call to himself.”

40With many other words he testified and exhorted them, saying, “Save yourselves from this crooked generation!”

41Then those who gladly received his word were baptized. There were added that day about three thousand souls.

42They continued steadfastly in the apostles’ teaching and fellowship, in the breaking of bread, and prayer.

43Fear came on every soul, and many wonders and signs were done through the apostles.

44All who believed were together, and had all things in common.
