1 | Jesus' name baptism? | Acts 2:38 | Mommapbs | 48245 | ||
Greetings Charis! This is a very old thread but I do have a question about this verse. So I'm putting it out there to some of the participants. The following is a statement from a denominational web site: "As with the first Christians, when a person repents and is baptized their sins are forgiven and the Holy Spirit begins to work in their life. (Acts 2:36-41; Romans 8:5-11)" I am troubled by this, not because I am an unbaptized believer, but because many who I know to be born again believers have not been immersed! It just doesn't "sit" with me that physical baptism is a prerequiste for forgiveness. Any comments? Blessings, Mommapbs |

Hi Mommapbs, I just read this post, and I agree that baptism is not a prerequiste for forgiveness. On the other hand, when does a person get baptized? Do you plan on getting baptized in the future? Or is it just a personal decision, or command of God? Or should I not ask so many questions :) Thank you for considering this matter! Blessings and Love in Jesus Name. |

3 | Jesus' name baptism? | Acts 2:38 | Mommapbs | 48350 | ||
Greetings inmyheart! I was baptized as a little girl because I believed that this was what I was supposed to do in response to my faith in Jesus. The practice of baptism is offered to those who would choose to be obedient to to Christ in this manner.I am praying that my children will choose to do this. I'd appreciate your prayers for my kids to choose to be obedient to Jesus, period! Blessings, Mommapbs |

Hi Mommaphs, Thank you for your response. I sense your tender heart, and what lays ahead shall be greater then the latter. Oh how precious are the children in the eyes of the parents, how much more so in the eyes of God. I exalt thee Lord! Yes, I'm including your children on my prayer list, and we will declare the Word of God over them! May God richly bless you |
