Everyone Who Calls on the Name of the Lord

Readings:
II Kings 25
Acts 2:1-21

Focus:
Acts 2:21:"Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord on that day shall be saved."

God had allowed first the kingdom of Israel, and then the kingdom of Judah, to go into exile because of their sinful disregard of his ways. And throughout history many bad things have happened and will happen, ultimately all because of the warping of God's creation that happened when sin entered into the picture.

Yet God will not let that be the last word. On the day of Pentecost after the Resurrection of Jesus, he provided his Holy Spirit to guide and nurture believers from that time forward. And whenever anyone turns to him in sincereness of heart, God will answer. He will not turn anyone away who truly seeks him.
