Please, lets not go there. Mark 16:16 is in all of our bibles. Inquisitor is lurking and he will smell the "you cannot trust the gospels" blood in the water.

Anyone who professes faith but is not baptized for the remission of sins is confused and his or her profession is a empty one. Do not be deceived, any profession of faith without the baptism for the remission of sins is a dead faith. Hence the reason for Jesus to add baptism when He spoke in...

Jesus said it.

I would add that Peter stated in Acts 2:39 that water baptism was to be for multiple generations.

You are fighting the very words of the verse. Here is the verse again. 1st Peter 3:21 CEV Those flood waters were like baptism that now saves you. But baptism is more than just washing your body. It means turning to God with a clear conscience, because Jesus Christ was raised from death...

You are stating that baptism is a symbol and not the vow? Baptism is the vow! 1st Peter 3:21 Baptism, which corresponds to this, now saves you (not the removal of the filth of the flesh, but the pledge of a good conscience toward God) through the resurrection of Jesus Christ. Such a clearly...

I believe I have done a rather fine job of answering your questions. In the end Jesus has the final say so. Mark 16:16 - "Whoever believes and is baptized will be saved, but whoever does not believe will be condemned.' A simple 16 word sentence composed of two independent clauses that...

So the question now is which is right? A. The remission of sins comes to believers obeying the command to repent and be baptized. Acts 2:36-41 “Therefore let all Israel be assured of this: God has made this Jesus, whom you crucified, both Lord and Messiah.” When the people heard this, they...

Scripture is already in harmony, unless you need to adjust it to fit a theology.

Acts 2:38 is not negated regardless of who, when or why the Holy Spirit was given in Acts 10:44-48. Your point is moot.

Of course. Why would you think Paul became a Christian on the Damascus Road?

Which is why Paul was water baptized in Acts 22:16. "What are you waiting for now? Get up! Be baptized, and have your sins washed away as you call on his name."

No one thinks this. You are just beating a dead horse who was never even there. This seems to be your MO.

On the issue of the Holy Spirit being active today, you would need to define your meaning of "active". -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The Holy Spirit is...

Here is the passage: Jesus answered him, “Truly, truly, I say to you, unless one is born again he cannot see the kingdom of God.” Nicodemus said to him, “How can a man be born when he is old? Can he enter a second time into his mother's womb and be born?” Jesus answered, “Truly, truly, I say to...

"Many times"? How many times does the Bible have to mention water baptism for you to accept its purpose for the removal of sins? Do you need a certain count, percentage or comparison? Paul simply needed one. Acts 22:16 - And now why tarriest thou? Arise and be baptized and wash away thy...

Straw Man??? Have you no shame? Your argument have been nothing more than a mindless attack against a distortion of the OP. You ceaselessly drone on about about past physical supernatural manifestations and ignore that the OP is about claims of current manifestations. Put down your book of...

Your comment on post #2 shows your ignorance of circumcision. Regardless of what you think Romans 3:21-5:1 says your comment was still ignorant. Labeling me ignorant for calling out your absurd comment on post #2 is childish. Just address what you wrote on post #2.

No. Pentecostalism is not a issue it is a false gospel. It is a theology based on human lies and believed by naive people like yourself. Much like the lies of the Jehovah Witnesses, Mormons and Christian Science.

"the preferred rite for portraying"??? Was God about to kill Moses because of a lack of portrayal? "Preferred"? So the Jews were allowed to choose their personal portrayal? Your comment shows a certain blindness to God's word that is purpose driven.
