(Acts 2:38)
Repentance happens when we are “cut to the heart” over our sin against Christ. The old-timers called it as “conviction of sin.” It makes no difference how many times you hear the gospel; what matters is that it cuts your heart so that out of that wound comes a complete change of mind and behavior.
Notice the order. We get nothing by the grace of God before we repent. The order is “Repent and believe the gospel.” (Mk.1:15) After repenting we can receive the gifts of God because repentance changes everything in our relationship with God; it makes us His children. All the gifts of God are good because they are gifts of grace (Jas.1:17). Repentance is the biggest no-brainer in the universe. Every gift of grace comes after we repent. Refuse to repent and receive judgment from God. You don’t want anything to do with His judgment.
Peter mentions just two gifts the repentant person receives: Forgiveness and the Holy Spirit. Repent and receive forgiveness of all your sins. Don’t repent and you will stand guilty before a holy and just God, and end up in hell forever. Repent and you get God Himself in your life in a very powerful and gracious way.
After we repent, then we are to receive two baptisms: one in water and one with the Spirit. According to Jesus in Luke 24:47 and Peter in Acts 3:19 we receive the forgiveness of our sins “in view of” our repentance, not our water baptism. The antecedent for remission in Acts 2:38 is repentance, not baptism. You need to know that your sins are forgiven. I mean really know it. The Prodigal Son left the hog pen of his sin and went home. As his father was giving him gifts of the ring, the suit, the shoes, and kissing him all over his face, that son knew his sins against heaven and his father had been forgiven. Now they could throw a party and celebrate.
