1 | This is my last post. | NT general Archive 1 | disciplerami | 79427 | ||
This is my final post. I received my "second and final" warning for being controversial. I won't wait for the third. To you who reported the 'abuse', I turn things back over to the amen choir: back over to those who believe in 'faith alone', to those who believe in a partial and biased god, back over to those who reject specific commands. I thank you for the challenge. Good day. Disciplerami |

Searcher, I'm sorry that you and Tim missed the very important point that Faith IS obedient. A non-working faith called "FAITH ALONE" is unbiblical and cannot save. Disciplerami |

Greetings, Tim attempted to prove the point you mention. Most of the time when you post, your sentences are so broken that it is difficult to tell what you are saying. Sorry, Disciplerami |

4 | Question: how long is 'temporary?' | Acts 2:38 | disciplerami | 79391 | ||
Baptism is for the remission of sins, as is repentance. Baptism is not contrary to the plan of God. We are saved by grace through faith. Faith works. If you believe, then you will speak and obey. James says salvation comes when you work and Paul says you are justified by your faith. Faith and works united is Biblical. It is not faith only, it is not by works only, it is through the 'obedience of faith', such as is demonstrated in Hebrews 11. Good day, Disciplerami |

Question: how long is 'temporary?' I guess Acts 2:38 is off limits to the main page? Do I begin to see the pattern? We have an honest disagreement so why limit exposure to it? Why can't others join the discussion? "Note to viewers: This thread has been temporarily restricted from appearing on the homepage.

Yes, there are many baptisms in the Bible, but only one that we are commanded to receive. The one that Jesus commanded and all Christians submitted to is the watery burial which pictures His death, burial and resurrection. To deny this is simply to go against Scripture. Sorry to say you are wrong on this :( Have a nice one. We might get snow by the end of the week. Ick! Disciplerami |

"What use is it my brethren if a man says he has faith, but he has no works? Can that faith save him?" Tim says yes! What does that make you? Is James an 'epistle of straw' to you too? Disciplerami |

9 | When did God change "mode" of baptism? | Bible general Archive 1 | disciplerami | 79361 | ||
Taleb, Good question. God did not change it. In my opinion, the only explanation is that man changed it. Immsion is the only one that depicts the 'death, burial and resurrection.' Good day, Disciplerami |

Tim, I hope you get well soon. About your message, if you compare my position to Judaizers', how incredibly unkind of you. Does that fit with the spirit of this forum? We must be careful or it may cause this thread to be removed from the main page. Paul said he was made an apostle to bring about the obedience of the faith. Faith is not a saving faith without obedience (Romans 1:5; 15:18; 16:26). Paul preached baptism in Romans 6. He wasn't a Judaizer but he saw nothing wrong with preaching obedience. Get well soon, Disciplerami |

Right on. No one is saying that works save, but Tim can't seem to get it. Thanks, Disciplerami |

14 | Repent and Baptism for same number? | Acts 2:38 | disciplerami | 79353 | ||
Greetings, see 79352 for answer. | ||||||

Answer to Tim's post: 79339 Greetings, You want to deal with parenthetical statements? 1 Peter 3:21 "Baptism now saves you through the resurrection of Jesus Christ." That parenthetical statement, accurately depicted as such, explains how baptism saves you and it agrees completely with Peter's message on the day of Pentecost. Peter said in Acts 2 that baptism is for the remission of sins. Not a problem. I've answered Acts 10 in my conversation with Searcher. They did not receive the indwelling spirit until they were baptized because the spirit does not dwell in an unsanctified vessel. It is given to those 'who obey Him' (Acts 5:32). Good day. Disciplerami |

17 | 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 |
||||||
18 | Could this be right? | Acts 2:38 | disciplerami | 79337 | ||
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 |

19 | Repent and Baptism for same number? | Acts 2:38 | disciplerami | 79336 | ||
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, 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. THE EUNUCH MAY HAVE HEARD ABOUT IT BAPTISM AT SOME OTHER TIME] Acts 8:38 And he ordered the chariot to stop; and they both went down into the water, Philip as well as the eunuch, and he baptized him. [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? Rom 6:4 Therefore we have been buried with Him through baptism into death, so that as Christ was raised from the dead through the glory of the Father, so we too might walk in newness of life. [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. [THAT'S NOT WATER BAPTISM BECAUSE I DON'T SEE THE WORD 'WATER' THERE] Col 2:12 having been buried with Him in baptism, in which you were also raised up with Him through faith in the working of God, who raised Him from the dead. [THAT'S NOT WATER BAPTISM BECAUSE I DON'T SEE THE WORD 'WATER' THERE] 1 Pet 3:21 Corresponding to that, baptism now saves you--not the removal of dirt from the flesh, but an appeal to God for a good conscience--through the resurrection of Jesus Christ, [THAT'S NOT WATER BAPTISM BECAUSE I DON'T SEE THE WORD 'WATER' THERE] God bless.
