1 | What if you don't obey that command? | Rom 6:4 | The Bible is Right | 56549 | ||
The first century believers obeyed this command in the same hour they believed, and all of the conversions in the book of Acts the believers were baptized the same hour. But people today wait days, weeks, months and some wait years before they are baptized, can they still be saved by being disobedient? |

3 | What if you don't obey that command? | Rom 6:4 | The Bible is Right | 56560 | ||
Sure: Acts 8:35-39 "Then Philip opened his mouth and began at the same scripture, and preached unto him Jesus. 36 And as they went on their way they came unto a certain water: and the eunuch said, See, here is water; whay doth hinder me to be baptized? 37 And Philip said, If thou believest with all thine heart, thou mayest. And he answered and said, I believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God. 38 And he commanded the chariot to stand still: and they went down both into the water, both Philip and the eunuch; and he baptized him. 39 And when they were come up out of the water, the Spirit of the Lord caught away Philip, that the eunuch saw him no more: and he went on his way rejoicing. Act 16:30-34 And brought them out, and said, Sir, what must I do to be saved? 31 And they said, Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved, and thy house. 32 And they SPAKE UNTO HIM THE WORD OF THE LORD, AND TO ALL THAT WERE IN HIS HOUSE. (only to make a point) 33 And he took them the SAME HOUR OF THE NIGHT, AND WASHED THEIR STRIPES; AND WAS BAPTIZED, HE AND ALL HIS, STRAIGHTWAY. 34 And when he had brought them into his house, he set meat before them, and rejoiced, believing in God with all his house. Both of these cases were in the same hour, but notice the first text in Acts 8:26-38 I used vs 35-38 to save space, but the point I want to make is that these two were in the desert, this is the answer to the "what if you were in the desert question" God will provide! Philip taught the eunuch and baptized him in the same hour. And the jailer was also baptized the same hour of the cold night with all that were in his house. |

Sorry, but the Biblical text just does not support your theory. You can theorize any way that you like. But it just does not hold up when we examine Scripture for what Scripture explicitly says. - Makarios |

5 | What if you don't obey that command? | Rom 6:4 | The Bible is Right | 56647 | ||
Please point out where I went wrong! You asked for evidence, and I gave you the evidence. What's the problem? By the way that's not theory, It's a fact, It's exactly what the bible saids. The Bible is Right! |

6 | What if you don't obey that command? | Rom 6:4 | Makarios | 56650 | ||
No, you did not give me any evidence at all. Please show me exactly where it says that the NT believers were baptized within an hour of conversion. And that must be within the text!! |

7 | What if you don't obey that command? | Rom 6:4 | The Bible is Right | 56669 | ||
And he took them that very hour of the night and washed their wounds, and immediately he was baptized, he and all his household. (NASB) AMPLIFIED Acts 16:33 And he took them the same hour of the night and bathed [them because of their bloody] wounds, and he was baptized immediately and all [the members of] his [household]. I got this passage from two translations and I know you are aware of. And they both say the same thing about what hour the jailer was baptized. Please be honest with yourself, and don't play on words, because it can't be any clearer than what is given. |
