—Acts 2:1-8, 37-42

James 1:22 says, “Do not merely listen to the word … do what it says” (NIV). The message of the cross always demands a response. Those who heard Peter’s message were “cut to the heart.” When they felt God tugging at their hearts, their first question was, “What do we do now?”
The fact of the matter is simple. Unholy people cannot stand in the presence of a holy God. When people accept him, they need to repent of their sins and take care of their unholiness so that a holy God can work in their lives.
