So when the Holy Spirit falls, you just got to be ready.

When the indwelling of the Holy Spirit happens, you can't fight it.

Because the Holy Spirit will do something in you that other things cannot do.

Watch this.

Look at verse number 39.

And Peter has something stunning that he says in verse 39.

Watch this.

For the promises is for you and for your children.

And for all who are far off.

Everyone whom the Lord our God calls for himself.

Watch this.

When the Jews were talking to those who are far off.

In their mind when they heard this they were referring to the Gentiles.

The people that they thought God had written off already.

The outsiders, the unclean, the ones who are not a part of his sanctified tribe.

And here is where Peter, standing in Jerusalem 50 days after the resurrection, before any Gentile missions, before the church was even started, in this first few days, he is saying, he looks at the Jewish people and he says to them, the promise is for them too.

The one you thought God didn't see.

The ones you thought were too far gone.

The ones that you wrote off.

That means that the gospel does not stop with the people in the room.
