  • "Repent and Receive"

    (Acts 2:38)

    Repentance happens when we are “cut to the heart” over our sin against Christ. The old-timers called it as “conviction of sin.” It makes no difference how many times you hear the gospel; what matters is that it cuts your heart so that out of that wound comes a complete change of mind and behavior.

    Notice the order. We get nothing by the grace of God before we repent. The order is “Repent and believe the gospel.” (Mk.1:15) After repenting we can receive the gifts of God because repentance changes everything in our relationship with God; it makes us His children. All the gifts of God are good because they are gifts of grace (Jas.1:17). Repentance is the biggest no-brainer in the universe. Every gift of grace comes after we repent. Refuse to repent and receive judgment from God. You don’t want anything to do with His judgment.

    Peter mentions just two gifts the repentant person receives: Forgiveness and the Holy Spirit. Repent and receive forgiveness of all your sins. Don’t repent and you will stand guilty before a holy and just God, and end up in hell forever. Repent and you get God Himself in your life in a very powerful and gracious way.

    After we repent, then we are to receive two baptisms: one in water and one with the Spirit. According to Jesus in Luke 24:47 and Peter in Acts 3:19 we receive the forgiveness of our sins “in view of” our repentance, not our water baptism. The antecedent for remission in Acts 2:38 is repentance, not baptism. You need to know that your sins are forgiven. I mean really know it. The Prodigal Son left the hog pen of his sin and went home. As his father was giving him gifts of the ring, the suit, the shoes, and kissing him all over his face, that son knew his sins against heaven and his father had been forgiven. Now they could throw a party and celebrate.

    The Context: To understand a passage it always helps to know the context of that passage. In John 9 Jesus is embroiled in a controversy with the religious leaders of His day. He healed a man born blind and the Pharisees threw a fit because Jesus broke one of their rules; He did it on the Sabbath (9:14). They ended up throwing the formerly blind man out of the temple. “Jesus heard they had cast him out; and when Jesus found him…” (9:35) It is against the backdrop of dealing with these false shepherds who were in fact thieves and robbers that Jesus took the time to teach on the fact that there are false shepherds and there are true shepherds; Himself being The Good Shepherd. These thieves and robbers I am calling stealers because that’s what they do. They steal the sheep from the Good Shepherd. Israel was the sheep God had delivered from Egyptian bondage and had kept them for hundreds of years. All because they were His sheep. He loved these sheep.

  • "Learning to Speak the Language of the New Covenant"
    Oct 2 2025

    Send us a text

    Wednesday, Oct 1, 2025. I have had formal education to learn several languages: English, French, Spanish, Nepalese, Greek, and Hebrew. I can’t speak any of them very well. My most fluent language is tongues and that’s because I didn’t have to learn tongues; they just flow out by the Spirit. But with all other languages we must learn how to speak them. Each of them takes a long time and is very difficult. This is true also of speaking the Language of the New Covenant, the language of grace and truth.

    What we say is important, and if we speak God’s words what we say is also very powerful. All God’s works are voice-activated and He uses our words to activate them. With the Bible we learn to think God’s thoughts and speak God’s words. When we do, things begin to change.

    This language comes in three categories of Biblical speech. It begins with “This is the word of God: I am what it says I am, I have what it says I have, and I can do what it says I can do.” This all comes from being “in Christ,” a phrase the Bible uses many times to tell us what we are, what we have, and what we can do.

  • "What Shall We Do?"
    Sep 29 2025

    Send us a text

    Now when they heard this, they were cut to the heart and said to Peter, ‘Men and brethren, what shall we do?’ Then Peter said to them, ‘Repent and let everyone of you be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins; and you shall receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.” (Acts 2:37-38)

    To model the Model Church we find in Acts 2 we must be committed to Jesus’ Great Commission to be His witness to everyone, be filled with the Holy Spirit, believe in the Latter Day outpouring of the Spirit with signs following, and preach Jesus Christ and the gospel of His death, burial, resurrection, exaltation and consequent baptism with the Spirit. And the fact that the gospel demands a public response. Any church that is a Bible church must call for a response to the word preached. What is the proper God-ordained public response to the gospel? This is crucial. To be saved we must respond to the gospel in the way God says to respond.

    The first response to the gospel is the cutting of the heart. When you really hear the gospel it will produce what the old-timers used to call conviction of sin. That’s exactly what is going on in this passage. They heard Peter preach the gospel and “they were cut to the heart” and wanted to know what they should do. Has the gospel ever cut you to the heart? Salvation is a matter of the heart. The gospel must penetrate your heart in order to provoke a response of unconditional surrender, such as is voiced in this question, “What shall we do?” You tell me and whatever it is, I will do it. That’s unconditional surrender to do whatever the preacher of the gospel calls for.
