Those who accepted his [Peter’s] message

Every person in the local church of God has accepted God’s good news. It was the Christian message of salvation that Jesus died on the cross to save them from the penalty of their sins – a lost relationship with God, and eternal separation from him. John 3:16 says: “For God so loved the world, he gave His one and only Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have eternal life.” We want to share that good news with others, too, and every church of God has its own way of doing that!
