>>From Acts 2:38 we also have this....."Peter said to them, “Repent, and each of you be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins; and you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit."<<

I appeal to Christ on a regular basis. Though at the time I placed my trust in Him my sins were rubbed out as noted in Colossians 2:13-14
When you were dead in your transgressions and the uncircumcision of your flesh, He made you alive together with Him, having forgiven us all our transgressions, 14having canceled out the certificate of debt consisting of decrees against us, which was hostile to us; and He has taken it out of the way, having nailed it to the cross.
The astute reader will note Paul does not mention the wearing of the scapular to keep them out of Hell as claimed by the apparition roman catholicism claims to be Mary. There is no appeal to Mary for the forgiveness of sins in any of the New Testament. It is only through Christ and Christ alone in which we have forgiveness and eternal life. The catholic cannot say that as there are far too many catholic writers who have appealed to Mary for their protection and salvation.
Your testimony regarding the scapular is a prime example.

And how did Peter do this? He preached the Word.
19“Therefore repent and return, so that your sins may be wiped away, in order that times of refreshing may come from the presence of the Lord; 20and that He may send Jesus, the Christ appointed for you, Acts 3:19-20
