Acts 2

On Pentecost the Holy Ghost fills the disciples and enables them to speak in other tongues understood by Jews from many nations. Peter explains the event from Joel, proclaims Jesus crucified and risen, identifies Him as both Lord and Christ, and calls his hearers to respond. About three thousand are baptized and added, and the Jerusalem believers devote themselves to doctrine, fellowship, breaking bread, prayers, generosity, and daily witness.
