Speaking In Tongues Does Not Equal Salvation.

Read it again:




You asked what they had to repent about, and I told you. Crucifying Jesus. You said there was nothing stated that they had to repent over. I showed you were wrong. I said they directly caused the crucifixion, where as we did indirectly.



Right, and that was what they had to repent about.



Right. But that was what they had to repent over. Was not the point the question of what specific thing did they have to repent about? You said nothing was told to them, and I say it was.

It is highly doubtful that those 3000 were all directly involved in the crucifixion of Christ. That is the only way they could have been directly responsible. Therefore it is highly doubtful that those 3000 were all directly responsible for the crucifixion of Christ.

You cannot repent for something that you did not do. Peter didn't tell a bunch of people to repent of something that they didn't do. It just makes no sense that he would have or that they could have. What does make sense is that he told the people of Israel to turn to God by believing on Christ so that they wouldn't be like their brethren that were directly responsible for the crucifixion of Christ. Peter never ever insinuated that anyone was indirectly responsible for Christ's death.
