    But if you do not believe we recieve the Holy Spirit until we are baptized. And they were never baptized. They were never saved. again, you can not have it both ways. and your wrong. It is not scriptural. I received the HS the moment I was born again. I was baptized in water months later when...

    God's Elect: This Ends Any Debate

    this is the second thread in a month where the one who posted the thread said argument over. Or irrefutable evidence. Or whatever. It is also the second thread that caught my eye. But the OP failed to prove their point. In fact. He failed to even properly show what Jesus said in the chapter he...

    Then you just PROVED. That water baptism is not required for salvation. If it was. Then your answer would be no. These people are nto saved. Saying it is up to God is just a cop out. Either baptism is required or it is not. You can not have it both ways. The fact is, God does baptize us with...

    Baptism should accompany confessions of faith

    It is far deeper than that actually, yes it means to immerse it also had other meanings in the greek. In the example you give, the pickles were placed into the liquid.. I think of the words of paul where it says they were baptized into moses.. They were placed into Moses who was the head of...

    Baptism should accompany confessions of faith

    would jesus contradict himself? It can not be water, or he would contradict himself its in Christ and his promise based on his death. Not in my pastor, or my works. No. because the greek word from whence it was transliterated from does not have water as its base meaning. A work of...

    Baptism should accompany confessions of faith

    Silence? I mentioned John 3 (no water baptism) I mentioned John 6 (no water baptism) The only tie that I find water baptism to remission of sin, is that John demanded that people showed fruit of having recieved it. peter told those who have recieved it to get baptized. And they did. But hey...

    Baptism should accompany confessions of faith

    If you mean baptised with the Holy Spirit, I agree. if you mean baptise in water. Your a false teacher. John 3. Whoever believes is not condemned, who ever does not believe is condemned already. is your faith in Christ, or is your faith in the one who immerses you in water Baptize does not...

    Baptism should accompany confessions of faith

    Peter did not tell them to be baptized to recieve the gift of the spirit He told them to be baptized if they recieved remission of sin. thats why he told EVERYONE to repent. But only induviduals to be baptized. it would help to look deeper in the greek.

    Baptism should accompany confessions of faith

    But water has nothing to do with it. so it can not be part of salvation. Do you even know what the word baptize means Oh wait. We have to go deeper. Because baptize is not even a native English word. It is a transliteration of a greek word (Baptizo) so if you want to the true defenition of the...

    But it would be a false testimony I can not give a testimony of my faith in God and praise God for what he did for me, and how he changed my life. When he has not yet done it.

    Baptism should accompany confessions of faith

    Well I have never heard it.. But as with all groups. There are extremists.. We should not attack a whole group because of a few extremists.. I mean think about it. Many churches in order to fight licentiousness preach legalism, and many churches in order to fight legalism promote...

    Baptism should accompany confessions of faith

    Who? I know many people CLAIM it. But in my 40 years as a believer, I have never actually heard anyone say this, I have just heard people falsly accuse them of this. Water baptism is not a command in the law. So it can not be a work of the law (although the law did command Gentiles who were...
