Series:  They'll Know We Are Christians

50 Days after Jesus ascended the Apostles were in a house preaching the Resurrection and that God had made Jesus both Lord and Christ.  As the hearers witnessed the acts of the Holy Spirit arriving, they asked the apostles, “what shall we do?”  The apostles answered, “Repent and be baptized”… and that day 3000 were baptized.  Then further, the growth continued to 5000.

They were preaching the good news of the Lord Jesus, and the hand of the Lord was with them, and a large number who believed turned to the Lord.  During this early preaching, Stephen witnessed to the Pharisees and was stoned to death.  The new believers were scattered back to their own countries and their faithful witness continued to grow the new church.
