1 | What purpose did each baptism serve? | NT general Archive 1 | Teacher | 66513 | ||
Charis, I had to look at your profile to make sure what gender I was speaking with, not that it really matters. Anyway, I agree that there WERE three baptisms, 1) the baptism of John unto repentance, 2) the baptism of the Holy Spirit (fire), 3) and water baptism. Each of these had a purpose. My question to you is what purpose did each serve? If you have the time please cite scripture to support your position for each. Thank you. | ||||||

i have a question?if there are 3 baptisms that "have" to been done today in order to be saved,why did peter say this in acts 11:16,was it because the messiah said this in acts 1:5.Peter said then he "remembered",if you remember something,does that not mean for whatever amount of time you forgot what you were told!....You cannot use the word "remember" in any sense unless something was forgotten,apparently a situation or somenone or something now makes you remember and now you hence acts 11:16......why would a person have to do all these things when the baptism was already done?when the messiah was baptized by john he ended "all" physical ordinances(galatians 3:23-27.simple and plain no doctrines of man,just simple and plain,when he came no more custodian of the law,now read acts 1:5...,then read 11:16......just imo!...... | ||||||

Hi agree3, To remember something is to bring it to mind, or keep it in your mind. So Peter in Acts 11:16 was recalling to his mind what the Lord had said. The Lord also remembers and He doesn't ever forget His lovingkindness and His faithfulness. Psalm 98:3, "He has remembered His/ lovingkindness and His faithfulness to the house of Israel; All the ends of the earth have seen the salvation of our God. Shout joyfully to the (Lord) all the earth; Break forth and sing for joy and sing praises." See also Psalm 106:45, 105:8, remembered forever. From the heart, Ray |

using simple logic when is only time a person will say "then i remembered"? acts 11:16 say's just that......the questions is why did he have to remember ray?...ask yourself that!.....then read acts 1:5 again!.......why?....why?.....why?...did he remember!.....if he did not remember would he have did something else....read all of acts chapter 11....before you get to verse 16!....what had peter done! compare verse 15 to john 14:26.....now did peter have to be reminded or not!....just a question. | ||||||

Hi agree3, I compared/contrasted the verses you mentioned. I came up with the same idea that someone else did in your other thread; that is, that the baptism of the holy spirit is the filling of our hearts with the word of God. This enables us to keep in mind and remember the words to speak by which one will be saved. See Acts 11:14. I suggest that since this thread is long and concerned with other topics, that we continue at #66562. Thank you, agree3. From the heart, Ray |
