Responding to the Gospel

The second chapter of Acts reveals the first time the gospel was preached and the correct way to respond to it. In Acts 2:38, Peter revealed to the people that were “cut to the heart” after they heard his message, how to respond to his message. They were to repent, be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ, and receive the gift of the Holy Spirit. This is still the Bible way to respond to the gospel. As we do, we are identifying with the death, burial and resurrection of Jesus Christ.
