We call ourselves **Pentecostal**because we have experienced the same miraculous conversion that the 120 followers—which included the mother of Jesus—experienced in the second chapter of Acts. According to the Bible (The Acts of the Apostles), the New Testament Church began on the Day of Pentecost, which was fifty days after the resurrection of Jesus Christ. When the crowd heard the noise, saw the commotion, and listened to the message, they asked the Apostles how to be saved. Peter, standing up with the other eleven apostles, preached this message: ![Man_Kneeling_White.png](https://fpcandme.com/_astro/man-kneeling-white.Bs0l-Xx-_5SSKx.webp) # Repentance We must repent (turn away from) of our sins. We do this by asking Jesus to forgive us. Luke 24:17; II Peter 3:9; Acts 2:38 ![water_icon_White.png](https://fpcandme.com/_astro/water-icon-white.f4gJgBqD_Z2txCuj.webp) # Baptism We must be water-baptized in the Name of Jesus Christ for the remission of our sins. John 3:5; Acts 2:38, 8:16, 10:48, 19:5 ![Flame_Icon_White.png](https://fpcandme.com/_astro/flame-icon-white.DWYkVRvr_ZB3FuY.webp) # Spirit Infilling We are promised the gift of His Spirit with the evidence of speaking in other tongues. John 7:37-39; Acts 2:4, 2:38, 8:17-18, 9:17, 10:44-47, 19:6 [Learn More](https://fpcandme.com/our-beliefs/) [fpc_me](https://www.instagram.com/fpc_me/) [View Instagram post by fpc_me](https://www.instagram.com/p/DdajRDeMqNo/) Sep 18 [Open post by fpc_me](https://www.instagram.com/p/DdajRDeMqNo/) [![It is an honor to host the Apostolic Educators Association in Maine.
