3 Bible Tips: What Must I Do?
When you hear God's message, it brings you to a point of decision. Here are some biblical examples.
1. When people came to John the Baptist, confessing their sins and seeking to be baptized, he preached strong messages of warning. They asked, "What shall we do then?" (Luke 3:10).
"Therefore bear fruits worthy of repentance" (Matthew 3:8; see Luke 3:3-18 for more details).
2. On the Day of Pentecost, Peter preached a powerful sermon showing everyone's responsibility for Jesus Christ's death. The audience asked, "What shall we do?"
"Then Peter said to them, 'Repent, and let every one of you be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins; and you shall receive the gift of the Holy Spirit'" (Acts 2:38).
3. When God miraculously freed Paul and Silas from prison, the keeper of the prison was about to kill himself. Paul reassured him that they were all still there, and the jailer asked, "What must I do to be saved?"
"So they said, 'Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and you will be saved, you and your household.' Then they spoke the word of the Lord to him and to all who were in his house" (Acts 16:31-32).
