People's Commentary (NT)
Acts 16:31
Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ. He was a heathen. Faith was the
essential step. To Jews, on the day of Pentecost, already believing
Peter's proposition, he said, in answer to the same question, "Repent
and be baptized" (Acts 2:38); but the heathen jailer was not ready
for this. Faith must first be wrought, and then that faith, leading to
the acceptance of Christ, would save. His faith would save, because it
would be the power that would lead him to follow Christ.
And thy house. We learn from the next verse that "all that were
in his house" could listen the "word of the Lord" (Acts 16:32), hence
were not infants.
