1 | Age for baptism? | Bible general Archive 3 | SBoone | 157427 | ||
Hello Doc, Is there Biblical reference to 12 and 13 for Bar Mitzvah? My question is in regard to Baptism. Christ was baptized at the age of 27, but many Christian children are getting baptized at 8, 9, or 10. Would 12 or 13 be a good mark to say that a child who has not reached this age would not be baptized? God Bless, SBoone |

2 | OT Spirit limited by choice or Cross? | John 3:11 | SBoone | 157019 | ||
Hi WOS, Thank you for your comments. You have shared further texts that show the Holy Spirit was active in the OT. The apparent increased role of the Holy Spirit is what I'm trying to figure out. In the OT the Lord gave the sanctuary service and dwelt amoung the people. Today the Holy Spirit dwells within us. Is this because the Holy Spirit could not work in the same way It does today because Christ had not yet died and resurrected, or was it simply because God chose not to? It may be we don't have the answer to this, but if someone has some thoughts on this I'd love to hear them. God Bless, SBoone |

3 | What is the OT role of the Holy Spirit? | John 3:11 | SBoone | 156982 | ||
Hello C.S.M., You said "Since Jesus had not died for mankinds sins yet, or been raised from the dead and ascended into heaven to sit at God's right hand, and the Holy Ghost had not yet been sent from God the Father, through Jesus his Son, to indwell believers, no one had been "born again" yet." What role did the Holy Spirit play in the OT? I'm particularly thinking of PS 51:11 where David is asking God not to "take Your Holy Spirit from me". Is Ezek 36:26,27 speaking of times after the cross? Could God's people in the OT not have the indwelling of the Holy Spirit. I see how the NT shows that there would be a different type of work from the Holy Spirit, but I'm unclear as to exactly how that difference shows itself. God Bless, SBoone |
