Can someone please explain why the thief is always mentioned for not being baptized. What does that have to do with anything. Adam and Eve and Moses were not baptized in Jesus name either, so what? | ||||||
3 | What does baptism consist? | 1 John 5:6 | Makarios | 113609 | ||
Greetings Arrow1, The simple fact of the matter is, the thief who was crucified on the cross next to Jesus who asked Jesus to remember him in His kingdom was saved (Luke 23:42-43). Did the thief ever have a chance to be baptized before dying? No. Was the thief saved? Yes. Hopefully I have explained this clearly. Makarios |

Thanks for replying, Makarios You are completely missing the point. How could you possibly require the thief to be baptized when the Great Commission has not yet happened, and Jesus has not yet been resurrected. That makes no sense. Of course he had no chance to be baptized in the name of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, it had not yet been commanded. |

Arrow1, The Great Commission, in and of itself, does not state that any person MUST be baptized in order to be saved, before or after the Resurrection of Christ. But it DOES state that we should GO and baptize OTHERS. - Makarios |
