What did Peter tell them (verses 38-40)? What is the promise he speaks of? What does that promise mean to you? How is life among the believers described in verses 43-47? How would you describe life among those who are members of your community of faith? Pray I thank you, Lord God, for the gift of your Holy Spirit and for your promise of forgiveness in Jesus’s name.
