A Right Response to the Word Preached

Having heard the Word preached, the Gospel proclaimed, and Jesus put forth as the Lord and the Christ, the Jewish hearers are called, upon conviction of their sin, to repent and be baptized. They also receive the promise of the forgiveness of sins, and the gift of the Holy Spirit, upon faith and repentance. And 3,000 souls were saved that day, having repented and having been baptized as professing believers.

Acts 2:37-41 "Now when they heard this they were cut to the heart, and said to Peter and the rest of the apostles, 'Brothers, what shall we do?' And 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, everyone whom the Lord our God calls to himself.' And with many other words he bore witness and continued to exhort them, saying, 'Save yourselves from this crooked generation. So those who received his word were baptized, and there were added that day about three thousand souls."
