1 | Acts 2:38, why people delay baptism | Acts 2:38 | arrow1 | 113353 | ||
I recently read the Purpose Driven Life. In it he states there are "no" delayed baptisms in the Bible. If there are "none" in the Bible, why are there "any" today. In fact being baptized is commonly put off months if not years in most churches. If you substitute Peter's sermon in all of the conversion stories(spoke the word of Lord to him, began with that passage of scripture and told about Jesus, opened her heart to respond to Paul's message, he told the people to beleive in the one coming after him that is Jesus, etc. I think they all responded to the message by being baptized immediately because "that was the message" they all heard. When sharing our faith today, no one ever hears Peter's sermon. Insted they hear "pray jesus into your heart", or accept Christ as their personal saviour so that is all they do. Different sermon evokes a different response. Doesn't it make sense that everyone would have the same response to the Gospel message that the people in Acts did if they all heard the same message today as well! | ||||||
