Acts 2:37-47 ▼

37 And, hearing this, they were pricked in the heart, and said to Peter, and the rest of the apostles, "Brethren! what shall we do?"

38 And Peter said to them, "Repent, and be immersed each one of you, in the name of Jesus Christ, unto remission of your sins; and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Spirit;

39 for the promise is to you, and to your children, and to all those afar off—as many as the Lord our God shall call to Him ."

40 Also with many other words he testified, and exhorted them, saying, "Be saved from this perverse generation!"

41 Those, therefore, who gladly received his word, were immersed; and there were added to them on that day about three thousand souls;

42 and they were constantly attending the teaching of the apostles and the fellowship, and the breaking of bread, and the prayers.

43 And fear was coming upon every soul; and many wonders and signs were coming to pass through the apostles.

44 And all who believed were together, and were holding all things common;

45 and they were selling their possessions and goods, and were distributing them to all, according as any one had need.

46 And they, continuing daily with one accord in the temple, and breaking bread at their homes, were partaking of food in gladness and singleness of heart;

47 praising God, and having favor with all the people. And the Lord was adding to them daily those who were being saved.
