I appreciate that you've weighed in on the subject and hopefully advanced the discussion. Good day to you, Disciplerami |

202 | To be saved must we be baptised? | Acts 2:38 | disciplerami | 78396 | ||
Hi Steve, Your answer falls a little short. What would they 'believe' if Paul and Silas didn't then "speak the word of the Lord to him together with all who were in his house"? What they believed was the Gospel. Part of preaching Jesus is preaching Baptism (Acts 8:35,36). That is why they did not wait three months to go get baptized, they immediately went the very same hour (past midnight, 16:25). Q: Was the jailer saved when he believed? A: Yes. Q: When he believed what? A: What Peter preached to him and the rest. Q: When was he saved? A: When he obeyed in baptism. Good day to you, Disciplerami |

Searcher, Just a small point to add a bit of clarificaton to this illustration: "The working out our salvation is like when we get a transplant (heart, liver ...) we do not pay for the organ, it is given [WHEN GO TO THE HOSPITAL AND LET THE DOCTOR DO THE SURGERY]. But, while it is ours, free ... we need to do something to use it fully." Thanks, Disciplerami |

God bless you in your search. I too believe that God is fair and that salvation is impossible without the grace of God. However, if someone asks to become a Christian, I teach them what Peter and Paul said about it: word for word. Thanks for responding. Disciplerami |

Steve, Steve, Steve, I know what the Gospel is, but thanks for pointing it out again. Did you miss the part where Philip preached Jesus from Isaiah? The next words, say, that they were passing water and the Eunuch asked to be baptized! It might be my very carnal and natural mind, but this text seems to imply that Philip preached baptism to the Eunuch WHEN he preached Jesus to him. Steve, does it escape your notice that 1 Cor 15:3,4 doesn't mention the need for faith? Humm? Attention all posters: Steve's logic seems to be imply that faith and baptism are not necessary for salvation. Wow, Steve! This is an amazing thing you've come up with. The question was about salvation and baptism. And the only verse in the entire Bible that you recognize is 1 Cor. 15:3,4. Good day. Disciplerami |

Dear Steve, I think Philip, inspired of the Spirit, gave a similar message that Peter gave on Pentecost. Acts 2:38 God bless, Disciplerami p.s. can anyone answer why this thread has been restricted from appearing on main page? |

208 | Repent and Baptism for same number? | Acts 2:38 | disciplerami | 79167 | ||
Since no one wants to answer, I will. The command to "repent YE" is 2nd plural command. This command is joined by the conjunction 'and' (kai) followed with the 2nd command "let each one of YE be baptized". The second command is appositive to the command to 'repent', and even though the verb (baptistheito) is 3rd singular the number being commanded are the same as the number told to 'repent.' This is so because 'each one' [HEKASTOS] is followed with the 2nd person plural pronoun, 'of YE.' And Thayer says HEKASTOS (nominative, singular, adjective), "when it denotes individually, every one of many, is often added appositively to nouns, pronouns, and verbs in plural. Which is what is done in this instance. So when someone says that the command to be baptized isn't associated with receiving the forgiveness of sins because of the change in number and person, tell them the grammar allows it and 52 translations of the Bible accurately depict it so. The same people commanded by Peter to repent for forgiveness of sins were also commanded to be baptized for forgiveness of sins. Salvation comes only by the blood of Christ through the obedience of faith. Have you been baptized 'for the remission of your sins'? Good day, Disciplerami |

211 | Repent and Baptism for same number? | Acts 2:38 | disciplerami | 79298 | ||
Searcher, Thank you. The Greek in verse 2:3 and verse 2:38 is the same and so everyone who was told to repent was also told to be baptized. My point was not to determine the exact number that was present that day; instead I made the point that the verbs 'repent' and 'be baptized', though one was 3rd singular and one is 2nd plural, are to the same crowd and both are required of all in order to receive forgiveness of sins. Have a good day. Disciplerami |

Greetings, The UPPERCASE letters in the following represent the strained attempts to get around water baptism. Matt 28:19 "Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit, [THAT'S NOT WATER BAPTISM BECAUSE I DON'T SEE THE WORD 'WATER' THERE] Mark 16:16 "He who has believed and has been baptized shall be saved; but he who has disbelieved shall be condemned. [THAT'S NOT WATER BAPTISM BECAUSE I DON'T SEE THE WORD 'WATER' THERE] Acts 2:38 Peter said to them, "Repent, and each of you be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins; and you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit. [THAT'S NOT WATER BAPTISM BECAUSE I DON'T SEE THE WORD 'WATER' THERE] Acts 2:41 So then, those who had received his word were baptized; and that day there were added about three thousand souls. [THAT'S NOT WATER BAPTISM BECAUSE I DON'T SEE THE WORD 'WATER' THERE] Acts 8:36 As they went along the road they came to some water; and the eunuch *said, "Look! Water! What prevents me from being baptized?" [THAT'S NOT WATER BAPTISM BECAUSE I DON'T SEE THE WORD 'WATER' THERE, oops, er, THAT'S NOT PART OF THE GOSPEL BECAUSE IT DOESN'T SAY PHILIP PREACHED BAPTISM.

[SAME AS LAST ANSWER] Acts 9:18 And immediately there fell from his eyes something like scales, and he regained his sight, and he got up and was baptized; [THAT'S NOT WATER BAPTISM BECAUSE I DON'T SEE THE WORD 'WATER' THERE] Acts 22:16 'Now why do you delay? Get up and be baptized, and wash away your sins, calling on His name.' [THAT'S NOT WATER BAPTISM BECAUSE I DON'T SEE THE WORD 'WATER' THERE] Rom 6:3 Or do you not know that all of us who have been baptized into Christ Jesus have been baptized into His death?

[THAT'S NOT WATER BAPTISM BECAUSE I DON'T SEE THE WORD 'WATER' THERE] Gal 3:27 For all of you who were baptized into Christ have clothed yourselves with Christ.

They are. You keep saying the 3rd Singular 'be baptized' doesn't related to the same ones being told to repent, and you are wrong. Disciplerami |

Greetings, And I have said that I disagree with this statement: "What I have said is that the command 'to be baptized' is not grammatically connected to the result clause 'for the forgiveness of your sins and you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit'. These two 'results' can only be grammatically connected to the command 'to repent" Both the command to repent and be baptized are connected grammatically with the conjunction 'and'. The promised result of 'forgiveness' is to the same ones who are told to be baptized. You continue to suggest that the English just can't quite relate the nuances, but we aren't talking about nuances. We are talking about an entire restructure of the original text. You do not simply speak of nuances when you clip and paste Greek text. The command to 'be baptized' is not an afterthought, better stuck on the tail of the verse, not since the Holy Spirit placed it between the command to repent and the promise of forgiveness. Your problem is not in an inability to relate nuances, it is with the original text. We probably won't agree. I'm sorry. I wish you well, Disciplerami |

Greetings, Why would an apostle who is called to "bring about the obedience of faith" be afraid to talk about the necessity of the obedience of baptism? That makes no sense. You think that because Paul teaches against justification by works that he can't preach the necessity of baptism? Baptism isn't contrary to his Galatian message as long as the baptized understand they are saved by the blood of Christ. You know my position. Good day, Disciplerami |

219 | Could this be right? | Acts 2:38 | disciplerami | 79348 | ||
Greetings imuvhin, I posted it because the Bible clearly shows that water baptism is involved here. No, we are not commanded to baptize people in the Holy Spirit. The baptism that is connected to forgiveness of sins is water baptism. I hope this helps, Disciplerami |
