Bible Note: Hi Doc, In Acts 2, the crowd asked Peter "what shall we do?" Peter answered "Repent and be baptized". Did they say anything to announce their repentance? Its not recorded. Whether they nodded their heads, or said a prayer, or shouted together in unison "This we will do!" is not recorded. In Rev. 3:10, I would ask what is the door that Jesus is knocking on, and what would the proper response be? Love in Christ, Mark |
