Act 2:37-38 KJV Now when they heard this, they were pricked in their heart, and said unto Peter and to the rest of the apostles, Men and brethren, what shall we do? (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 receive the gift of the Holy Ghost.
Act 10:6 KJV He lodgeth with one Simon a tanner, whose house is by the sea side: he shall tell thee what thou oughtest to do.
Act 10:46-48 KJV For they heard them speak with tongues, and magnify God. Then answered Peter, (47) Can any man forbid water, that these should not be baptized, which have received the Holy Ghost as well as we? (48) And he commanded them to be baptized in the name of the Lord. Then prayed they him to tarry certain days. |
Excellent! The work of the cross STARTS there, but it is not finished there. It is a continuing process in our lives. The work begins when the blood of Jesus is applied to our lives, but it is a process that continues throughout our lives, striving to "let this mind be in you which was also in Christ Jesus." It is an ongoing process that begins with
Acts 2:38.
