Baptism should accompany confessions of faith

[Lamar]

Because something changed in me, and the word of God opened up to me like never before.

This is esoteric knowledge. Hence it has no authority other then in your own mind.

You most certainly think too much of yourself.

Your "understanding" of the Greek in Acts 2:38 does not line up with the recognized understanding to every Bible printed in English or any other language. You are implying a past tense view of this verse and you are wrong.

lol.. The facts speak for themselves. I do nto follow men. I follow the word of God. The fact you can not refute what I said just pushes me further away from your way of thinking. Because you give me no reason to change

This is the verse:

Peter answered them, “All of you must turn to God and change the way you think and act, and each of you must be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ so that your sins will be forgiven. Then you will receive the Holy Spirit as a gift.

Those who were cut to the heart asked Peter what they should do, not what did Peter recommend.

You are no Greek scholar

You’re reading a modern day english bible. Even the old english is better. Repent ye (ye is plural for the word you.) and let every one of you (you is singular)

I can’t help if you do not want to study.

scholar? What scholars? if I followed me, i would have followed the jews.. They had Gods word.

But we see following them would have been an eternally fatal flaw. Just like following your scholars will be a fatal flaw.

This is esoteric knowledge. Hence it has no authority other than in your own mind.

Yet it lines up with the word of God.

Go stand in front of God and when he asks you why he should let you in, Tell him because some man baptized you in water.

You will not like his answer.
