The Popular Commentary by Paul E. Kretzmann - Acts 2:37-40

The immediate effect of the sermon: v. 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? v. 38. Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized, every one of you, in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost. v. 39. For the promise is unto you and to your children, and to all that are afar off, even as many as the Lord, our... read more

Acts PETER’S FIRST SERMON Act_2:32 - Act_2:47 . This passage may best be dealt with as divided into three parts: the sharp spear-thrust of Peter’s closing words Act_2:32 - Act_2:36, the wounded and healed hearers Act_2:37 - Act_2:41, and the fair morning dawn of the Church Act_2:42 - Act_2:47. I. Peter’s address begins with pointing out the fulfilment of prophecy in the gift of the Spirit Act_2:14 - Act_2:21. It then declares the Resurrection of Jesus as foretold by prophecy, and... read more

Acts PETER’ S FIRST SERMON A FOURFOLD CORD Act_2:42 . The Early Church was not a pattern for us, and the idea of its greatly superior purity is very largely a delusion. But still, though that be true, the occasional glimpses that we get at intervals in the early chapters of this Book of the Acts of the Apostles do present a very instructive and beautiful picture of what a Christian society may be, and therefore of what Christian Churches and Christian individuals ought to be. The words that... read more

Pentecostal Days Acts 2:37-47 There were no exceptions in Peter’s great appeal for repentance. Every one of you! he declared. “But I drove the nails into His hands.” Every one of you! he insists. “But I pierced His side.” Every one! says the Apostle again. And from this motley crowd arose the primitive Church. Notice that those who had gone deep into sin are not required to serve a long novitiate between forgiveness and the gift of Pentecost. In Acts 2:38 the two are combined. Notice also... read more

G. Campbell Morgan's Exposition on the Whole Bible - Acts 2:1-47

The first paragraph of this chapter records the first page of the history of the Church. It is seen as it began to form. The separated units of the disciples were fused into the new unity of the Church. Through this new unity God, by the Spirit, addressed Himself to the gathered multitudes. They gave expression to the wonderful works of God in sacred, ecstatic song. This produced an effect on the city which called forth the first recorded address in the power of Pentecost. It is arresting to... read more

REPENTANCE‘Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost.’ Acts 2:38 In examining this subject we must first clearly understand what we mean by repentance. I. Respecting its nature.—To repent is an altogether different thing from doing penance. Nor is repentance to be confounded with remorse. Repentance is the tender-hearted sorrow for the sin itself. II. Its... read more
