Exactly. Acts 2:38 is grace.

The word 'grace' is not in Acts 2:38!

So what, much of scripture is that way. Both are true. The Holy Spirit knows...and so do I.Jesus never said those words together. Never. Prove it. That is YOUR mistake.
and repenting from sins
Original Greek? a) There are no original Bible texts. b) Jesus is an English word.
...and being baptized in the name of Jesus for the remission of sins.and repenting from sins
Iesous to be technical.Luke wrote the book of Acts and didn't know a single work of English. Luke would appeal to either the Greek name for Joshua or the Hebrew.
Jesus Christ is known by many names throughout the many tongues of men. Your restricts are just that. Your restrictions.
Jesus had a Greek name..Iesous...Matt 1.So Paul, a 1st Century Jew, actually spoke English. I had no idea!
Are you nuts? Peter spoke Aramaic and Jesus' Semitic name was "Yeshua" (a transliteration of course). And the verse literally says "Messiah"; "Yeshua" is not mentioned by name in the early texts.
Why do you call yourself "truther"?
Acts 2:38 is not grace by definition?The word 'grace' is not in Acts 2:38!
Repenting from sins does not save anyone
...and being baptized in the name of Jesus for the remission of sins.
So Jesus Christ, Who is Almighty God, either got it wrong, or misled us, or both?
No, baptism is a WORK, something that we must DO, and cannot save anyone! If it did, then the thief on the cross
I wouldn’t nullify baptism in the salvation process based only on the circumstance of this one person.
Iesous to be technical.
Jesus sounds like Iesous to God .
Yeshua sounds like Yamaha to God.

These folks think Jesus said "...he that believeth and is NOT baptized shall be saved...".So Jesus Christ, Who is Almighty God, either got it wrong, or misled us, or both? This is what Jesus Himself actually says
Mark 1;
14 Now after John was arrested, Jesus came into Galilee, proclaiming the gospel of God, and saying, 15 “The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand;repent and believe in the gospel.”
Luke 24:47;
"and that repentance for the forgiveness of sins should be proclaimed in his name to all nations, beginning from Jerusalem"
And the main Apostle, Peter, who followed the Teachings of the Lord, also got it wrong?
Acts 2;
"37 Now when they heard this they were cut to the heart, and said to Peter and the rest of the apostles, “Brothers, what shall we do?” 38 And Peter said to them, “Repent and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins, and you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit. 39 For the promise is for you and for your children and for all who are far off, everyone whom the Lord our God calls to himself.”
And the Apostle Paul also got it wrong?
2 Corinthians 7:10
"For godly grief produces a repentance that leads to salvation without regret, whereas worldly grief produces death"
What you are saying is called, HERESY!
Repentance and confessing are works.No, baptism is a WORK, something that we must DO, and cannot save anyone! If it did, then the thief on the cross, who Jesus said would be with Him in heaven after he died, is actually in Hades, because he was not water baptised! This passage in itself, completely destroys the HERESY, that sinners must be water bapitsed as part of being saved!
Yes, such happens when someone invents a name to replace "Jesus".No one can really knows how Yeshua is pronounced. The Hebrew language is difficult and most overstate what they think they know of it.
