Matthew Poole and continuators on Acts 2:38

38 Then Peter said unto them Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the Name of Jesus Christ, for the remission of sins , and ye shall receive the gift of the holy Ghost .

Not excluding the Name of the Father and the Holy Ghost; in whose name, as well as in the name of the Son, they were to Baptize, Matth. 28.19. but the name of Jesus is here mentioned, because they had not yet known, (but persecuted and slain him) whom henceforward they must profess, and that they look for pardon and Salvation onely through him.

Thus Saul or Paul is said to wash away his sins by Baptism, Chap. 22.16. and this Apostle elsewhere says, that Baptism saves us, 1 Pet. 3.21. which he explains to be, not the putting away of the filth of the flesh, but the answer of a good Conscience, &c.

1. His internal gifts, confirmation, and strengthning in the faith. 2. External gifts, as that of speaking with tongues, which they heard; both, or either of these, according to their conditions or stations, God would bestow upon them.

Which includes amendment of life, Matth. 3.7. Luke 3.8.
