Raiter explores what true response to the gospel looks like, based on the day of Pentecost from Acts 2:37-47. The response required from hearers of the gospel is repentance. The crowd of Pentecost responded to Peter's sermon with fear and deep reflection upon the implications of the gospel. The early church devoted themselves to fellowship, open to the needs of others above their own personal concerns - displaying true, genuine repentant living. The quality of repentance is measured by the quality of relationships. For the early church, they shared resources openly with one another; Raiter suggests that we can share both our physical and emotional resources with the church. The repentant church is additionally marked by great joy. In response to God's grace and mercy, the believer is moved to joy and praise. Talk 2 of the series "Mission in Acts."
