Acts 2:34-47 ▼

34 For Dauid is not ascended into heauen, but he sayth, The Lord sayd to my Lorde, Sit at my right hande,

35 Vntill I make thine enemies thy footestoole.

36 Therefore, let all the house of Israel know for a suretie, that God hath made him both Lorde, and Christ, this Iesus, I say, whome yee haue crucified.

37 Now when they heard it, they were pricked in their heartes, and said vnto Peter and the other Apostles, Men and brethren, what shall we doe?

38 Then Peter said vnto them, Amend your liues, and bee baptized euery one of you in the Name of Iesus Christ for the remission of sinnes: and ye shall receiue the gift of the holy Ghost.

39 For the promise is made vnto you, and to your children, and to all that are a farre off, euen as many as the Lord our God shall call.

40 And with many other words he besought and exhorted them, saying, Saue your selues from this froward generation.

41 Then they that gladly receiued his word, were baptized: and the same day there were added to the Church about three thousand soules.

42 And they continued in the Apostles doctrine, and fellowship, and breaking of bread, and prayers.

43 And feare came vpon euery soule: and many wonders & signes were done by ye Apostles.

44 And all that beleeued, were in one place, and had all things common.

45 And they sold their possessions and goods, and parted them to all me, as euery one had need.

46 And they continued dayly with one accord in the Temple, and breaking bread at home, did eate their meate together with gladnesse and singlenesse of heart,

47 Praysing God, and had fauour with all the people: and the Lorde added to the Church from day to day, such as should be saued.
