Acts 2:40

And with many other words did he testify and exhort, saying, Save yourselves from this corrupt generation.

George Leo Haydock

AD 1849

John Chrysostom

AD 407

He says nothing of the future, all is about the present, by which indeed men are chiefly swayed; he shows that the Gospel releases from present evils as well.
