Wednesday's reading is Acts 2
Jesus had been risen from the dead, and the apostles had all seen Him. This was not some theoretical debate, they knew, they had seen it with their own eyes, and the Holy Spirit was moving amongst them, given them power to reach in to people's hearts.
Peter's words, backed up with the miracle of the Holy Spirit, convicts many listening of the truth of the gospel and their need to repent and be baptized. 3,000 people came to Christ that day. Were they all Baptized that day? I don't know. If they were, then it would have been a massive event that no-one could ignore.
Are verses 42-47 meant as a blue-print to how we should live our lives now? Some believe so, others say that they lived that way because they believed that Jesus would return within a few weeks. What do you think?
