[QUOTE="BrownFlush, post: 5933225, member: 65823"] This statement makes no sense for 3:19 So Peter (as well as everyone else)preached a different gospel (which Paul says in Gal.1that if any one does they will be accursed) in Acts 3 than he preached in Acts 2? I offer this to see if it makes more sense: Acts 2:38 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. Acts 3:19 Repent ye therefore, and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out, when the times of refreshing shall come from the presence of the Lord. Acts 2:38 Repent Be Baptized Remission of Sins Acts 3:19 Repent Be Converted Sins Blotted Out What Peter preached in Acts 2:38 is not in conflict with what he preached in Acts 3:19. The term "convert" or "turn" is a more general word to denote the change in life which occurs when one becomes a child of God. Every turn has a beginning and baptism is the beginning of the change in life which occurs when a person begins to do what God commands him to do. This is the first act of obedience for the person wishing to obey the Lord - to, be baptized. The two verses are teaching the same conditions for salvation from sin. [/QUOTE]
