You're not hearing me. Just because you see the word "salvation" doesn't mean Peter is giving them the covenant terms, or explaining HOW they should be saved. Peter surely told them what to do, but it's folly to insist that Peter's instructions are the theological treaty of the NT, or that even his instructions don't need any qualifying, since many have attached their doctrines to his words, making Peter say something he did not. He did say to be baptized. He did NOT say you aren't saved until you are baptized. He did say to those Jews at Pentecost that they WOULD receive the Spirit. He did NOT say, without Spirit baptism with tongues you are not saved. Just a couple examples.
