The giving of the Holy Spirit on the day of Pentecost launches the mission Jesus gave to his disciples in Acts 1:8. His work in and through every believer, empowering them for their role in the mission, marked the beginning of the last days. After Peters sermon, three thousand were saved. But this success is not credited to Peters skill as a preacher. Rather, salvation is always the work of the Holy Spirit in response to the hearing of the gospel of Jesus Christ.(Please note, bible study questions relating to the sermon can be accessed by clicking on the paperclip icon, found on the right).
