1 | Conversion THEN baptism...verses?? | Acts 2:38 | Ash_Lynne_129 | 151618 | ||
I have a friend who believes in infant baptism, I personally do not and never have. I believe that a person shoudl only be baptised if they have accepted Christ as their personal savior. IT is a form of obedience right? As we were discussing it, he asked me for some scripture reffrences to help him understand my point of view. I could not think of a single one. I guess it's just one of those areas of belief that my church has always held to and I never really knew any of the verses to back it up. Does anyone know where I can find these? | ||||||
2 | Conversion THEN baptism...verses?? | Acts 2:38 | Barach | 151619 | ||
Reading the Bible book of Acts quickly shows that among early Christians, baptism was for those capable of 'hearing and receiving words' - with understanding of course - in order to repent and turn to a new life course of following in Jesus' footsteps. How can an infant do that? |

I agree with this way of thinking , and have attempted to explain it to my friend. However, he's the type of person who needs to see a specific verse in front of him. I read through acts and could nto find the specific verse you seem to be reffering to. Do you know the exact refference? That would be helpful. Thanks so much. | ||||||
