Acts 2:37-40

Forgiveness through the Messiah

37 When they heard this, they were pierced to the heart and said to Peter and the rest of the apostles: "Brothers, what must we do?"

38 "Repent," Peter said to them, "and be baptized, each of you, in the name of Jesus the Messiah for the forgiveness of your sins, and you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.

39 For the promise is for you and for your children, and for all who are far off,^[a] as many as the Lord our God will call."

40 And with many other words he testified and strongly urged them, saying, "Be saved from this corrupt^[b] generation!"
