Acts 2:21

No name is greater or more powerful than the name of Jesus Christ. 

Jesus is King and Lord over ALL.

Even when our souls are overwhelmed with sorrow and questions, we have a Savior who willingly experienced the deepest suffering and abandonment. And He weeps with us in our grief. First5 

Acts 2:21

21 And it shall come to pass 

That whoever calls on the name of the Lord 

Shall be saved.’ 

The New King James Version

Peter began his sermon by quoting Joel 2:28–32 from the Greek translation of the Old Testament. In that passage, God had promised that there would be a time when all those who followed Him would receive His Spirit, and not just prophets, kings, and priests. Peter pointed out that that time had come to pass. God would speak to and through all those who would come to Him, whether in visions, dreams, or prophecy. This was the beginning of the last days. God’s final act of salvation began with the pouring out of His Spirit. This final act of deliverance will continue to the end of this age. The NKJV Study Bible

Christ’s scholars never learn above their Bible; and the Spirit is given, not to do away the Scriptures, but to enable us to understand, approve, and obey them. Assuredly none will escape the condemnation of the great day, except those who call upon the name of the Lord, in and through his Son Jesus Christ, as the Saviour of sinners, and the Judge of all mankind. Matthew Henry’s Concise Commentary

Joel 2:28 

“And it shall come to pass afterward

That I will pour out My Spirit on all flesh;

Your sons and your daughters shall prophesy,

Your old men shall dream dreams,Y

our young men shall see visions.

Joel 2:29 

And also on My menservants and on My maidservants

I will pour out My Spirit in those days.

Joel 2:30 

“And I will show wonders in the heavens and in the earth:

Blood and fire and pillars of smoke.

Joel 2:31 

The sun shall be turned into darkness,

And the moon into blood,

Before the coming of the great and awesome day of the LORD.

Joel 2:32 

And it shall come to pass

That whoever calls on the name of the LORD

Shall be saved.

For in Mount Zion and in Jerusalem there shall be deliverance,

As the LORD has said,

Among the remnant whom the LORD calls.
