1 | can she be baptized? | Rom 5:8 | brother ray | 196983 | ||
I still believe this lady has a right to be baptized. Salvation is an individual thing. we cannot be saved by our father/mother, or anyone else. this lady has repented of her sins, (Ro. 8:1) she is a believer, a sister in Christ Jesus, who are we to deny her what Christ himself has commanded us to do when saved (Mt. 28:19). we often times are quick to judge, and condemn. Lets let God who is still on His Throne be God. 1 Peter 3:1 "Wives, likewise, be submissive to your own husbands, that even if some do not obey the word, they, without a word, may be won by the conduct of their wives". one final thing 2 Peter 3:9 states (its in the Bible) "...but is longsuffering toward us, not willing that any should perish but that all should come to repentance". He is still in the salvation business, even after the rapture, many will be saved. the churches position is not to separate the family but rather to keep them together. |

2 | can she be baptized? | 2 Cor 6:1 | brother ray | 196968 | ||
Recently I was asked if a lady who is living in common law marriage with three kids from that very same man, who does not want to marry and is currently in jail can be baptized? I (don't know if this is appropriate) believe she can. salvation is an individual thing. though she may be living in sin, she has every right to ask God for forgiveness and she will be forgiven. the problem here is not hers, but rather her situation. why should she be held accountable for something which is wrong and then in trying to rectify her problem before the Lord, her common law husband refuses. is she not entitled to repentence and thus salvation thru grace? are we not all sinners (Ro.3:23)please someone tell me different, am i of base? | ||||||
