The Key to Salvation is... the Book of Acts...

I know how salvation was wrought in my life and other than making a few comments, I don't need to debate that. Furthermore, I can't be convinced of looking at that any other way.

Mainly, because I look at things in a simply way. When, in the English language, I read a sentence with a question, I look for the response to follow.

I remember reading in Acts somewhere - (lol) "What shall we do?" The answer was interesting......

The question never was and does not read ... TO BE BE SAVED ... that question was asked by the jailer to Paul and we know what his immediate response was.

It doesn't? The jailer? I think you are referring to another passage of scriptures. I'm referring to Acts 2:37 "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?"

Right ... my point exactly. Acts 2 does not as what shall we do TO BE SAVED ...

Romans 8:9 "But ye are not in the flesh, but in the Spirit, if so be that the Spirit of God dwell in you. Now if any man have not the Spirit of Christ, he is none of his."

Romans 8:11 "But if the Spirit of him that raised up Jesus from the dead dwell in you, he that raised up Christ from the dead shall also quicken your mortal bodies by his Spirit that dwelleth in you."

Being that the epistles were written to people that were termed as "saints" and written to "the churches of", we conclude that somewhere they found salvation.

Acts shows how that Spirit came. It's a salvational message. It's a salvational issue.

So why did the men ask - "What shall we do?" Why were their hearts pricked? What did they think they needed at that point?

Daniel,
I'm still curious on your response to my post here?
