Re: Why Acts 2:38?

The beauty is when he says in verse, 2:33 "Therefore being by the right hand of God exalted, and having received of the Father the promise of the Holy Ghost, he hath shed forth this, which ye now see and hear."

They THEN asked, "What shall we do?"

A question begs an answer.

Acts 2:38. No way around that one. Toe torry! LOL!
As it has already been stated, every Christian on the planet believes and obeys Acts 2:38. The only "problem" that arises is when people insert words into Peter's mouth (Like 'quoting' Acts 2:37, as "What must we do to be saved?").

Peter already told them how to be saved. Salvation is a gift for all of those who call upon the Lord in faith. The seal of the covenant comes after salvation (See the experience of Abraham again that the NT apostles keep making a big deal out of).

The question does beg an answer. But you've got the wrong question inserted here. LOL.
