Acts 2:38 records Peter’s call to repentance and baptism for the remission of sins. Repentance and baptism are inseparable in the Christian faith; repentance involves turning away from sin and embracing God’s forgiveness, while baptism symbolizes the washing away of sins and the commitment to live a new life. Peter’s message emphasizes the necessity of both repentance and baptism for salvation. Repentance is not merely an emotional response, but a decisive turning away from sin, while baptism represents the public declaration of this inner change. Through baptism, believers identify with the death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus Christ. It is an essential act of obedience that signifies a new life in Christ, empowered by the Holy Spirit. This verse emphasizes the connection between faith, repentance, and baptism, showing that all three are necessary for salvation and the forgiveness of sins.
