1 | Is this about water baptism at all? | Acts 2:38 | sniper | 77431 | ||
I forgot to add that baptism was also taught as necessary for joining the church. One could be saved, but not a member of the local congregation unitl baptism. This is also wrong, since Acts 2 teaches us that God adds a person to the church when they are saved. | ||||||
2 | Is this about water baptism at all? | Acts 2:38 | disciplerami | 77448 | ||
Sniper, I thought about this issue for a long time after reading Hiscox Baptism Manual where it reads that church membership requires baptism. Those who follow this book (American Baptist, maybe others) believe that there are unbaptized saved, but they aren't members of the church. This is contrary to the Bible teaching. In the Bible, the saved and the church comprise the same individuals: you can't be in one without being in the other. Church equals saved and saved equals Church. |
