1 | AO, was His John 3 not in effect? | John 4:14 | Searcher56 | 103311 | ||
It is not true that "that everytime someone becomes a christian they are baptized" ... Let us look in Acts at the salvation experiences: -2:41 ... 3,000 saved and baptized -4:4 ... 5,000 is total ... no mention of baptism -5:14 ... many added ... no mention of baptism -8:14-17 ... Samaritans ... who were baptized -8:34-39 ... Ethopian ... who was baptized -9:5-19 ... Paul ... who was baptized *10:44-48 Cornelius and his house ... who were baptized -16:5 ... the norm during Paul'a trip is that baptism is not mentioned, except twice ...16:14-15 ... Lydia and her household ...16:31-34 ... jailer and his family *19:5-7 ... the 12 disciples of John weren't even baptized Moreover, nowhere do we see that we need to be baptized to be saved. Read the posts for the verses the Campbelites like to quote. |

Scripture ... Acts 10:43-48 - Rom 8:9, Gal 4:6, Eph 1:12-13 ... They received the Holy Ghost before ever being baptized outwardly (Acts 10:44-48). A person receives the Holy Ghost, a mark of salvation (Rom 8:9, Gal 4:6, Eph 1:12-13). The reason for the request water for baptism is to show outwarldy of an inner change. If "The Holy Spirit falling on Cornelius was God showing He was for even Gentiles" ... than why did He wait until Peter started to talk? No, Holy Spirit falling on Cornelius and company was to show to Peter and the Jews they were saved. Read the posts for Acts 10:48. |
