Wow!

Those who accepted his message were baptized, and about three thousand were added to their number that day. — Acts 2:41

Wow! Wouldn't it be great to see 3,000 added to God's people in church today. Those who accepted Peter's message at Pentecost were baptized and the beginning of the early church started with an incredible bang. Earlier that day, only a small group of Jesus' followers had met to pray just as they had done for several days since Jesus' ascension. As night falls in Jerusalem, the number has jumped to over 3,000!

Acts 2 stands as a hallmark passage showing us the message of salvation, what the response of open hearts will be, and how the Holy Spirit uses this simple message to bring seeking hearts to salvation and community. Why don't you read Acts 2 today? Jot down what Peter says about Jesus. Notice what Peter tells the people to do to be saved. The Gospel is still just as simple, so let's not only study it; let's share it, praying for God to bring revival to our times and to our broken land!

Commands 

Def rand not

Mark 10:19
You know the commandments: ‘Do not commit adultery,’ ‘Do not murder,’ ‘Do not steal,’ ‘Do not bear false witness,’ ‘Do not defraud,’ ‘Honor your father and your mother.’ ”

Desire Spiritual Gifts

1 Corinthians 14:1
Pursue love, and desire spiritual gifts, but especially that you may prophesy.

Desire milk of Word

1 Peter 2:2

The Bandit of Joy

Matthew 5:5
Blessed are the meek,
 For they shall inherit the earth.
