1 | Do you have to be baptized to be saved? | Rom 6:3 | Hank | 15069 | ||
If water saves us, Jesus shed His blood on the cross needlessly. The clearest message in all of Scripture is that Jesus Christ shed His blood for the forgiveness of our sins. It is absolutely foundational to Christianity. To promote any other doctrine than that, to suggest any saving agent but the blood of Jesus Christ, to introduce any saving act or works that we can perform ourselves, is to deal in heresy. --Hank | ||||||
2 | Do you have to be baptized to be saved? | Rom 6:3 | Tim Sheasby | 22290 | ||
I agree that water does not save -- it is the Blood of Christ. But, and this is a big But, it is only in BAPTISM that you can come into contact with the cleansing blood of Jesus. You have to be baptised into his death. I believe you are saved by baptism, but it is not the water that saves. It is the submissive obedience to the command of Christ (Mark 16:16) | ||||||
