Discuss Acts 2 Page 41

Brother Jacobs, Acts: 2 comment 7 07 2015, 7:38 am... is right on. John The Baptist and Jesus Christ Himself preached the Gospel of the Kingdom to be on earth then and this Gospel calling went on up till the calling of the Apostle in Acts Ch. 9 for just Jews only. If Israel the Jewish Nation would have received Christ as their Messiah Israel would have had their King Jesus Christ 2000 years ago. Then Peter and others Apostles would went out in all the world and brought the Gentiles to Light and Savior of the world. Just like the 144000 Jewish witnesses will do in the Tribulation. Thereby in Acts 2:38 you have the calling for the Kingdom to be on earth in Israel still by Peter, Peter said in Acts 2:38 repent and be baptisted in the Name of Jesus Christ. Then many thousands were heart broken they knew they had crucified their Messiah. Read Acts Ch. 3 verses 19 thru 21 if Israel would have received Christ still the Jews would had their King and Kingdom by the Father sending Christ back. But they as a Nation, as a whole, still rejected Jesus Christ. Then you have the founding of the Church made of Gentiles and Jews in Acts Ch. 15 Amen ! Amen .

If Acts 2 is doctrinally to you today and not for Jews then please do follow these verses too. Acts 2:44-45 And all that believed were together, and had all things common And sold their possessions and goods, and parted them to all men, as every man had need. Will you please do that? That 's what the Bible instructs you to do. The Church age was not revealed at this time Eph 3 and the Pauline epistles hadn 't been written yet. This Acts 2 is a Jewish faith Rom 1:16-17 . Yes they were added to the church but Acts is transitional. They are not added that way now. There are four different ways the Holy Spirit is received in Acts alone. But Paul our Apostle Rom 11:13 says its by Grace through faith ALONE. Once the kingdom is rejected with the stoning of Stephen Paul the apostle to the gentiles is saved and the transition from Jew to Gentile begins and by Acts 15 everyone agrees by faith alone. Relief is being sent to the Jews who obeyed Acts 2:44-45. See Acts 11:27-30, Rom 15:26, 1 Cor 16:1-3 .

I plainly say just read it and do what it instructs you to do. The book of acts was before all the denominations of Christianity that is now in the world. There was just Christians before man tried to perfect God and his Word. HE really doesn 't need our help. HIS WAYS are above our ways. God Bless all of you.

To Betty Mccormack 's on 7 02 2015 33o pm... You must just look in the mirror.

Some, including me have thought that the people that are saying Christ is talking to them are saying they are false prophets. In Acts it clearly states that in the end of days our sons and daughters will prophesied. I have prayed for God to show me false prophets. I believe he just answered my prsyer in this verse

The reason that Jesus said if you have seen me you have seen the father is: Hebrews 1:3 Who being the brightness of his glory, and the express image of his person. This text is speaking of The Lord Jesus Christ. He is not the Father. He says in John 10:30 I and my Father are one. But this doesn 't He is the Father. They are one in unity just as the believers are one in Him. We are one with each other but are not the same as each other and are not Him. John 17:11 And now I am no more in the world, but these are in the world, and I come to thee. Holy Father, keep through thine own name those whom thou hast given me, that THEY MAY BE ONE, as WE are. Jesus is the image of God so He said John 12:45 And he that seeth me seeth him that sent me. They couldn 't see the Father without Jesus because he declared Him or made Him known. John 1:18 No man hath seen God at any time the only begotten Son, which is in the bosom of the Father, he hath declared him. If there is no Godhead who were they seeing in the Old Testament? Exodus 6:2-3 And God spake unto Moses, and said unto him, I am the LORD: And I appeared unto Abraham, unto Isaac, and unto Jacob, by the name of God Almighty. If they were seeing God Almighty but it wasn 't the Father who was it? Hint. The preincarnate Christ.

Clearly the water is physical birth. That which is flesh is flesh. Flesh is physical and it is associated with water. We say, her water broke. Spirit is obviously the new birth. This is a good verse for the oneness to explain. Genesis 19:24 Then the LORD rained upon Sodom and upon Gomorrah brimstone and fire from the LORD out of heaven Strange verse if there is no Godhead. What aboutGenesis 1:26 And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: The angles sure didn 't help Him considering Isaiah 44:24 I am the LORD that maketh all things that stretcheth forth the heavens alone that spreadeth abroad the earth by myself. What aboutGe 3:22 And the LORD God said, Behold, the man is become as one of us. Who is us? Hosea 12:4 Yea, he had power over the angel, and prevailed: he wept, and made supplication unto him: he found him in Bethel, and there he spake with us Who is the US in this verse? The Bible tells you. Hosea 12:5 Even the LORD God of hosts the LORD is his memorial.

John 1:1 In the beginning was the word, and the word was WITH God, and the word "WAS God ". John 1:14 The word was made flesh jesus now and dwelt among us. This says God was made flesh and dwelt among us as Jesus Christ. Lets try basic algebra. N name N father N son N HG If N 1 then N has to equal all of them. Name is singular. The name of the son is Jesus Christ we know for sure so there for the name of all is Jesus Christ English: A Euliptical clause is the scripture of in the name of the father, the son, and the holy ghost. Peter said My Lord and my God. Jesus said if you have seen me you have seen the father.

Acts 10 demonstrates the acceptance of gentiles into the kingdom of God. The Holy Spirit fell upon the gentiles signifying to Peter that acceptance, but that ability to speak in tongues is different than receiving the gift of the Holy Spirit in Acts 2: 38. It is for everyone to help us in our daily lives as evidenced in Romans 8. If not for the Holy Spirit offering up prayers to God in our behalf to help keep us in the saved state. That is why baptism is so important because it is there where we receive the gift predicated upon the fact we acquiesce to God 's command as stated in John 3: 5, Mark 16: 16, Acts 2: 38, Acts 22: 16 and Matthew 28: 19, 20. Faith only doesn 't work, because faith has to be accompanied by following commands by Jesus. Finally, Romans 6 clearly shows why baptism is demanded because it is there we receive the regeneration by water burial in a token death, burial and resurrection satisfying God 's plan for salvation. Anything short of that is merely cut and paste salvation.

If there is no Trinity or One God manifested in three persons, the Bible is wrong. 1 Thessalonians 5:23 And the very God of peace sanctify you wholly and I pray God your whole spirit and soul and body be preserved blameless unto the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ. The above verse states that man is a trinity consisting of three parts in one. Genesis 1:27 So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him male and female created he them. This verse states that God created man in His image. Now God must be a tripartite God or the Bible is wrong. You know the Bible is true. Another thing. John 8:16-17 And yet if I judge, my judgment is true: for I am not alone, but I and the Father that sent me. It is also written in your law, that the testimony of two men is true. THE TESTIMONY OF TWO. Now either the Father and the Son are two or The Lord Jesus just lied. John 8:54 Jesus answered, If I honour myself, my honour is nothing: it is my Father that honoureth me of whom ye say, that he is your God: It 's One God in three persons. God the Father, God the Son, God the Holy Ghost. All three One and all three God but separate. It 's the mystery of Godliness. 2 Corinthians 13:14 The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and the communion of the Holy Ghost, be with you all. Amen.

care of my brother STEPHEN HOOPERS The reason people do not like Acts 2:38,is it donot agree with the doctrine of the Trinity.There is no record of water baptism in the titles or trinity in the word of God.After Jesus rose from the dead,he spoke to the Apostles for forty days,he told them to baptize in the father,and the son,and the holy ghost.The apostles went forth and baptized in the name of jesus.Either jesus is the name of the father,and of the son,and of the holy ghost,or the apostles did not obey what jesus commanded them to do.I believe the apostles were right,they were guided by the holy spirit.I thank God for this truth.God bless apostles Knew THE NAME of this FATHER,SON,HOLY GHOST its not "baptize in the father, and the son and the holy ghost " it should be Baptizing them " "IN THE NAME " " ' singular this is you pastor brother mentor what is you name Stephen Hoopers mathew 28:19 go ye therefore, and teach all nations, Baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost NAME is singular baptizing them " "INTHE NAME " " " "who 's name? " of the FATHER of course who is that Father is the FATHER is a name or a tittle and of the " SON " is the SON is name or a tittle and of the "HOLY GHOST " is the HOLY GHOST is a name or tittle Acts 2:38 then peter said unto them, repent, and be baptized every one of you IN THE NAME of JESUS CHRIST for the remission of sins, and ye SHALL received the gift of HOLY GHOST.

In Acts chapter 2:38 Peter was addressing Jews on the day of Pentecost, when they asked what must they do verse 37, He Peter said unto them, repent, and be baptized everyone of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Spirit. That was the requirement of the early church. Now, turn to Acts 10:44 While Peter yet spake these words the Holy Ghost fell on them which heard words. In Acts 2:38 the Jews had to repent, be baptized everyone of them in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of their sins in order to receive the Holy Spirit. But, Acts 10:44 they The Gentles received the Holy Spirit without being baptized. They early believers who were Jews still under the old Mosaic covenant at that time. Which was a different dispensation, were required to be water baptized to be saved. But, under the new dispensation according to the Apostle Paul in 1 Corinthians 1 4 all that is required for salvation, "both Jews and Gentles is truly believing in the death, burial and resurrection of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, plus nothing. Then we will be baptized with the Holy Spirit. Look Acts 16: 30-31 And brought them out, and said, Sirs, what must I do to be saved? And they said Paul and Silas Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved, and thy house. He did not saw they should repent and be baptize. No. all they said was believe!

Fahim 84 comment Acts 2 verse 35. Actually echtros is singular and the plural is echtroi. here verse 35 would read in Greek " Eosou tesso tous echtrous sou ypopodion ton podion sou "

the Greek source of "foes " translates from Greek: echthros G2190 , this form is in the plural, and as a noun, means "adversary " or "Satan "

Its a good scripture its encourages me spiritually thank you

Greetings in the Name of Jesus Christ. I read some of the comments on being born again. The instructions were given on the Day of Pentecost when the Church was established after the Lord ascended. You must repent, and be baptized in the Name of Jesus Christ,not father,son,Holy Ghost,which are titles and not names. Only one Name given whereby ye must be saved,the precious name of Jesus. OBEY ACTS 2:37,38

IT 'S A BLESSING

Lee you need to read John 's Gospel Chapter 1 verse 3

Jesus himself is a perfect obedience to our Holy Father, therefore we must also have obedience to Jesus Christ by following his words. We must not a believers only but we must be also a DOERS in Christ. Our Heavenly Father use John the Baptist in preparation of the coming of Jesus. Even Jesus was baptized by John as his obedience to the Father. He came to fullfill the Scriptures, We must be Born Again in Spirit in order for us to understand his words as God will give us the power of understanding and wisdom. We must walk with Faith and not by Sight. Desciples are the witness from the Life of Jesus and his teaching and blessing, they are also the witness of Jesus Cruxifixion and his Resurrection. Signs, Wonders and Miracles are given into Jesus hands, Jesus used and have commanded all of the desciples to continue and preaching the word of God as Jesus promised that he will never ever leave us nor forsake us. Thanks to Jesus for his precious blood that shed for us. Amen

There was power in the Holy Ghost, even when Jesus Christ acended in to heaven.

Mark 16:16 He believes AND IS baptized shal be saved.

Todays Gospel is I Corinthians Chapter 15 verses 1 thru 4. If you like to be saved read Romans Chapter 10 verses 8 thru 13. The Apostle Paul was given the Gospel of Grace. Ephesians Chapter 3 verse 2

This was when the holy spirit came and the people started speaking different languages, people couldn 't understand what was going on but if u did believe in God u will understand what they saying.

The Bible states that there will be few that find the way cause there are so many think that their so wise but are foolish and unlearned in the word... So sorry for the lost and dying and headed to the devils pit. Jesus is the answer it 's still repentance, baptism in Jesus name and the in-filling of the Holy Ghost as in Bible is the only promise that was made to all meaning everyone...... Acts 2:37-47

This means we Do not have A License To Continue In Sinfull Habits We must always correct The Flesh .as chapter 7 says We are buried with him in baptism . And also in Acts 2:38 The him is Jesus Christ.

Maria, What a humble spirit I feel from you. That is the attitude God looks for in us. The gospel is the death, burial, resurrection of Jesus Christ. He is come that we might have life and have it more abundantly. When the Church was set up on the Day of Pentecost, Peter preached what we must do to be saved. Acts 2:37,38 Repent be sorry for your sins and turn from them ,be baptized in the Name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of sins, and we would receive the gift of the Holy Ghost evidenced by speaking in tongues.

The Church will be taken out before the tribulation happens. Those fascinated with these signs will be deceived. The Christian is to walk by the Bible 2 Corinthians 5:7 For we walk by faith, not by sight: Look at what the Bible says, Jeremiah 10:2 Thus saith the LORD, Learn not the way of the heathen, and be not dismayed at the signs of heaven for the heathen are dismayed at them. The Christian is not looking for signs like the Jews 1 Corinthians 1:22 For the Jews require a sign, and the Greeks seek after wisdom: The church will see tribulations which are hard times but not the wrath of the tribulation Revelation 6:17 For the great day of his wrath is come and who shall be able to stand? Look here 1 Thessalonians 5:9 For God hath not appointed us to wrath, but to obtain salvation by our Lord Jesus Christ. The Antichrist prevails against saints in the tribulation Daniel 7:21 I beheld, and the same horn made war with the saints, and prevailed against them but not the church Matthew 16:18 And I say also unto thee, That thou art Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it. Look for Jesus Christ to come for His church any minute not the signs for the Jews. Have a nice day.

We sons and daughters of Jacob 's house are being led by El Shaddai out of captivity Exodus.with His mighty hand in keeping His promise His Holy Spirit is has been pouring out to All His children. Judea. Acts 2:17 kjv And it shall come to pass in the last days, saith God, I will pour out of my Spirit upon all flesh: and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, and your young men shall see visions, and your old men shall dream dreams: Proverbs 20:12 KJV 12 The hearing ear, and the seeing eye, the Lord hath made even both of them.

earlier this evening, the TV via CNN mentioned the moon turning red. quoting Acts 2:20, "...and the moon into blood, before that great and notable day of the Lord come: ". That means, the Lord 's day is imminent! Any time now! And if I 'm not mistaken, the Day of the Lord spells trouble for men on earth. Good night and Godbless, my dear brethren.

its a sign so its not like people don 't know hes coming back soon hes given many warnings and plenty of chances to all Revelations 6:12 and Acts 2:20 watch and pray
