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? 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. For the promise is unto you, and to your children, and to all that are afar off, even as many as the Lord our God shall call. (Acts 2:37-39) *Introduction: The prerequisite to being given this message.* 1/ A way forward, a way of hope. 2/ A word of direction. - Repent. - Be baptised. 3/ A word of promise - "Ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost." 4/ To whom the promise is unto - "To as many as the Lord our God shall call." - To you. - To your children. - To all that are afar off. **Sermon summary:** The sermon presents a powerful message for sinners burdened by guilt, emphasizing that true conviction is not despair but the beginning of hope. The response to the question "what shall we do?" is clear: repent and be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, a public declaration of turning from sin to faith, followed by the promise of receiving the Holy Spirit as a seal of salvation. This promise is not limited to the immediate audience but extends to their children and all who are afar off—anyone whom God calls, underscoring the universal reach of grace and the sovereign work of divine election. The tone is both pastoral and urgent, affirming that no sinner is beyond the reach of God's mercy when they are truly pricked in the heart and turn to Christ.
