1 | New life? | Acts 2:38 | justme | 50630 | ||
Dear Grace and Truth: There is a very close relationship in believing in Christ and, baptism closely following conversion. I think you will see new life starts when by faith we make Christ Lord. The two were considered part of one event. Even though Baptism is not a means by which we enter into a saving relationship with Christ, baptism is most certianly associated with union with Christ. I summerised and added to the NASB STUDY BIBLE notes on verse 4. I felt it helped me express a very touchy subject, that has cause a huge, needless debate in the recent past. I have move closer to believing that baptism complets this Union between Christ and the Believer than I did before. I still believe if a person prayes to make Christ Lord with no chance of being baptized and dies, say while in the hospital, that person would be saved. However, any person who refuses to be baptized by immerson has a fatal flaw in their faith. I hope this does not confuse you. agape, justme |

"I still believe if a person prayes to make Christ Lord with no chance of being baptized and dies, say while in the hospital, that person would be saved. However, any person who refuses to be baptized by immerson has a fatal flaw in their faith. I hope this does not confuse you". Believe me I'll never be confused about a bible subject such as this, I love talking about God's word, and I try daily to live by it. But about your last statement, that's not a biblical concept, although I heard it before, no one in the new testament other said anything like that! You must show scripture for that belief! |
