1 | Why are we Fake sometimes? | Luke 9:23 | Trilla | 45675 | ||
This verse is terribly misunderstood. Denying yourself is not aceticism (sp?). Denying yourself is admitting that you can't live a holy life on your own strength. Taking up your cross doesn't mean bearing a burden. Take up the benefits that come from the cross, and everything that Jesus there paid for in full. Salvation, Sanctification, Healing, the Holy Spirit, Power to Life for God the only way we can, IN CHRIST. | ||||||
2 | does baptism save us? 1Pet.3:21 | 1 Pet 3:21 | Trilla | 45670 | ||
Romans 6 3 Know ye not, that so many of us as were baptized into Jesus Christ were baptized into his death? 4 Therefore we are buried with him by baptism into death: that like as Christ was raised up from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life. The Apostle is not speaking of the physical act of sinking into the water and coming out. We are to have faith in Christ's finished work, his death on the cross, as the only way of salvation. When we exhibit faith in Christ and what He did for us at the Cross for our salvation, we are then "baptized into his death", and that is the only way to be saved! We are baptized into his death, and raised WITH HIM in newness of life. A/K/A "born again" Praise God! |
