Revised Common Lectionary (Complementary)

³⁷ When they heard this, they were pricked in their hearts and said to Peter and to the other apostles, Men and brethren, what shall we do?

³⁸ Peter said to them, Repent and be baptized, every one of you, in the name of Jesus Christ, for the remission of sins, and you shall receive the gift of the Holy Spirit. ³⁹ For the promise was made to you and to your children, and to all that are afar off, even as many as the Lord our God will call.

⁴⁰ And with many other words he bore witness and exhorted them, saying, Save yourselves from this perverse generation. ⁴¹ Then those who gladly received his preaching were baptized, and the same day there were added to them about three thousand souls.

⁴² And they continued in the apostles’ doctrine and fellowship, and in breaking of bread, and in prayer. ⁴³ And fear came over every soul. And many wonders and signs were shown by the apostles. ⁴⁴ And all who believed kept themselves together, and had all things in common, ⁴⁵ and sold their possessions and goods, and distributed them to all, as anyone had need. ⁴⁶ And they continued daily with one accord in the temple, and broke bread in every house, and ate their food together, with gladness and singleness of heart praising God, ⁴⁷ and had favour with all the people. And the Lord added to the congregation daily such as were to be saved.
