Acts 2:38-41 - Are You Warning and Pleading?

Pt 6 in the Acts sermon series.
On the Day of Pentecost, Peter speaks to the crowd of people who have gathered because of what they heard when the Holy Spirit filled Jesus' followers. After preaching the message that the One whom they had crucified was both Lord and Christ, the people were cut to the heart and asked Peter what they must do. Peter's answer then was the same that we must tell people today - repent!
Acts 2:38-41

Acts 2:14-37 -- By the Power of the Holy Spirit

Part 5 in the Acts sermon series.
On the Day of Pentecost in Jerusalem, the Holy Spirit has come and baptized the Apostles. Filled with Him, they began speaking in other tongues and people heard them preach the Gospel in at least 15 different languages. Many were amazed, but some accused the Apostles of drunkenness. The Apostle Peter stood up and by the power of the Holy Spirit explained to those listening what was happening. Because Peter was filled with the Holy Spirit, many listened to Him, believed, and were baptized into the Church that day.
In these last days, we NEED the power of the Holy Spirit to preach the Word, to stand firm for His truth, and to love others the way Jesus does.
Follow Jesus. Obey His Word. Seek the baptism of the Holy Spirit in your life.

Acts 2:14-37
