The first Christians

v.42, 44, 46, 47
When the day of Pentecost had come, they were all together in one place.
Suddenly a sound came from heaven like a rushing, violent wind, and it filled the whole house where they were sitting.
Tongues as of fire appeared to them, dividing, and one came to rest on each of them.
They were all filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak in other tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance.
Now there were devout Jews living in Jerusalem, from every nation under heaven.
When this sound was heard, the crowd gathered and was bewildered, because each one heard them speaking in his own language.
They were astounded and amazed, saying, "Look, are not all these who are speaking Galileans?
Then how is it that each of us hears them in his own native language?
Parthians, Medes and Elamites; residents of Mesopotamia, Judea and Cappadocia, Pontus and Asia,
Phrygia and Pamphylia, Egypt and the parts of Libya near Cyrene; visitors from Rome,
both Jews and converts to Judaism; Cretans and Arabs—we hear them declaring the mighty works of God in our own tongues!"
They were all astounded and perplexed, saying to one another, "What does this mean?"
But others mocked them and said, "They are full of new wine."
Then Peter stood up with the eleven, raised his voice, and addressed them: "Fellow Jews and all who live in Jerusalem, let this be known to you, and listen carefully to my words.
These people are not drunk, as you suppose—it is only nine in the morning.[fn: Greek: the third hour of the day.]
No, this is what was spoken through the prophet Joel:
"'In the last days, God says, I will pour out my Spirit on all flesh; your sons and your daughters will prophesy, your young men will see visions, and your old men will dream dreams.
Even on my male and female servants I will pour out my Spirit in those days, and they will prophesy.
I will show wonders in the heavens above and signs on the earth below—blood and fire and billows of smoke.
The sun will be turned to darkness and the moon to blood before the coming of the great and glorious day of the Lord.
And everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.'
"Men of Israel, hear these words: Jesus of Nazareth was a man attested to you by God through mighty works and wonders and signs that God did among you through him, as you yourselves know.
This man, handed over by God's set purpose and foreknowledge, you nailed to a cross by the hands of lawless men and killed.
But God raised him up, freeing him from the agony of death, because it was impossible for death to hold him in its grip.
For David says of him: 'I kept the Lord always before me; because he is at my right hand, I will not be shaken.
Therefore my heart was glad and my tongue rejoiced; my body also will rest in hope,
because you will not abandon my soul to Hades, nor let your Holy One see decay.
You have made known to me the paths of life; you will fill me with gladness in your presence.'
"Brothers, I can say to you with confidence that the patriarch David died and was buried, and his tomb is here among us to this day.
But he was a prophet, and he knew that God had sworn an oath to him that he would set one of his descendants on his throne.
Seeing what was to come, he spoke of the resurrection of the Christ: that he was not abandoned to Hades, nor did his flesh see decay.
This Jesus God has raised up, and of that we are all witnesses.
Exalted therefore to the right hand of God, and having received from the Father the promised Holy Spirit, he has poured out what you now see and hear.
For David did not ascend into the heavens, yet he himself says: 'The Lord said to my Lord: Sit at my right hand
until I make your enemies a footstool for your feet.'
Therefore let all the house of Israel know beyond doubt: God has made him both Lord and Christ—this Jesus whom you crucified."
When they heard this, they were cut to the heart and said to Peter and the other apostles, "Brothers, what shall we do?"
Peter said to them, "Repent and be baptized, every one of you, in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins, and you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.
For the promise is for you and for your children and for all who are far off—for all whom the Lord our God calls to himself."
With many other words he bore witness and urged them, saying, "Be saved from this crooked generation."
So those who welcomed his message were baptized, and about three thousand souls were added that day.
They devoted themselves to the apostles' teaching and to the fellowship, to the breaking of bread and to the prayers.
Awe came over everyone, and many wonders and signs were done through the apostles.
All the believers were together and had everything in common.
They sold their property and possessions and shared with everyone, as anyone had need.
Day by day they continued to meet with one accord in the temple, and breaking bread from house to house, they shared their food with glad and sincere hearts,
praising God and enjoying the favor of all the people. And the Lord added to their number day by day those who were being saved.
