>>Peter said to them,” Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ so that your sins may be forgiven; and you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.”<<

Now there is an evil twisting of the words of scripture. (not blaming you personally) Let's look at the real thing.

Acts 2:38 Peter replied, "Repent and be baptized, every one of you, in the name of Jesus Christ for (εἰς) the forgiveness of your sins. And you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.

For the second time today the Greek word εἰς is a preposition and not a verb.

C-B, I don’t know ancient Greek. I go with the translations as posted under the assumption they are correct. I’ll consider your alternate translation.
