1.)It is true that Peter did not say anything about being baptized in his sermom, and it is also true that no one believed his sermon in chapter 3, you will find the answer in chapter 4 verse 1-3, Peter and John were put in prison for preaching the Resurrection of Jesus and of the dead. 2.) If you want to know what Paul did in his preaching of the gospel you must go to the book of Acts. In Acts 16:8-40, you can learn what Paul preached. Vs.14 Ana a woman named Lydia from Thyatira, a dealer in purple who worshiped God listened; whose heart the Lord opened to heed the things Spoken by Paul. Vs 15 After she and her household had be immersed, (baptized) she implored ud saying, If you judge me to be faithful to the Lord, come into my house and abide; and she insisted that we stay. Then later in the chapter vs.30-34 And after he brought them out he said, Sirs, what must I do to be saved? 31 And they said, Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and you and your household Shall be saved. 32 And They Spoke the Word of the Lord To Him, Together with All Who were in His House. 33 And He took them the Same Hour of the Night and Wash their Wounds, And Immediately He Himself Was Immersed, (Baptized) and All of His Household. 34 And he brought them into the house and set food before them; and he and all his household Rejoiced, having Believed in God. This is what the bible saids about what Paul did when he preached the gospel. This also let me know that what he wrote in the letters to the church he was not Saying that Baptism into Christ was works of men. AScts 18:5-8 But after Silas and Timothy came down from Macedonia Paul gave himself wholly to the Word; testifying to the Jews that Jesus is the Christ. 6 But when they set themselves in opposition against Paul, he shook off his garments and said to them, Your blood be upon your own head; I am clean. Now I go to the Gentiles. 7 So he departed from there and went into the house of a certain man named Justus, who worshiped God; whose house was next to the synagogue. 8 But Crispus, the ruler of the synagogue, believed in the Lord with all his household; and Many of the Corinthians, after the Heard, Believed and were Immersed,(Baptized). Asts 19:1-5 1 It was while Apollos was in Corinth that Paul, having passed through the upper part, came Ephesus and found certain disciples. 2 He said to them, Did you receive the Holy Spirit after you believed? But they said to him, We never even heard that there is a Holy Spirit. 3 And he said, Into what then were you immersed (Baptized)? And they said, Into the Immersion of John. 4. But Paul said, John immersed with an Immersion of repentance; saying to the people that they should believe in him who was coming after him, that is in Jesus. 5. Now after they heard this they were immersed (Baptized) into the name of the Lord Jesus. This is what Paul Preached. 3. The Law of Jesus Christ started after the ascension. Gotta go for now talk to you later. |

"or answer a question with a question." I learned that from Jesus. Matt 21:24,25. lol. But thank you for your advice, I will do my best and ask the Lord to handle the rest. |

Good morning Tim, That's if you're on the east coast. If we just took Acts 2:41 all by itself, the bible tells us that three thousand people were baptized in one day, we know by the number of people that had to take a long time to baptize all of them, but the bible tells us that they were baptized that same day. That give us an idea what it was like with John the Baptist in Matt 3:5,6 Then Jerusalem and all of Judea and all the regions about the Jordan went out to him. 6 And were immersed (baptized) in the Jordan River by him confessing their sins. The bible gives us a pattern, from the time of John through the book of Acts. This is why I asked why do people take baptism in water lightly? It was so important, that Jesus asked a question to the cheif priest and elders about John's baptism, he ask was it from heaven or of men? But they refused to answer him openly, they reasoned among themselves, and said if we say from heaven, then he will say why didn't you believe him? And if we say of men, the people will stone us. Matt 21:24,25 When I studied this, then I understood that water baptism must be very important, and more important than we know. That's why I believe it is also of the grace of God. When the bible said not of works lest any man should boast. I took a deep look at what that means, not of man's own righteousness or of the Law of Moses. Then I asked where did baptism come from? It came from God, man had nothing to do with it. God can save us any way He chooses, and by the words of Jesus God chose baptism as part of his plan, John 12:50; Matt 21:24,25 and it is impossible for God to lie. |

That was a misunderstanding on my part, I guess I didn't understand the question. I have read many of your post and I think you are a very wise man of the word of God, and I look forward to learning more from you and others on this forum. |

All nine cases of conversions is my proof, what more do you need. Take the time and go through each one and you can make your own judgement. They did what Mark 16:16 commanded. |

"Now, given my case, since I was not water baptized immediately after making my confession, was I being disobedient to God?" "If God commands that after we believe, we get baptized immediately, was my getting water baptized weeks later done in vain?" You are the first one on this forum to ask a question like the one's you asked above. The answer to your question is this, If you believe the bible examples of conversions, did you do it like the bible saids? Believe this it is not your fault only, the one who taught you that way must bear some of the blame. Just study the book of Acts and asked the right questions, and if no one can give you a bible answer then please leave that place and sreach for the true church, where they believe all of what the bible saids about salvation. Remember in the book of Acts is your example, don't let no one change what you read is the bible. Romans 3:4 Let it not be! Let God be found true, but every person false; as it is written, That you might be justified in your words and prevail when you are judged. THE BIBLE IS RIGHT. |

I got it from the same bible we all read. My post was to Makarios, and you entered on your own, and I was glad that you and I had a chance to disguss this issue. There are nine cases of conversions in the book of Acts and I resreached them all, and in every case they were baptized in the same hour or immediately after being taught. |

I think this was an example to us, an putting it off can only hurt, today people are affraid to even mention baptism in water for fear of what other may say about them. I think the bible is very clear on the subject of water baptism, and the fact that it was done immediately, brings more light to it's importance in the role of salvation. That's all for now. THE BIBLE IS RIGHT |

Hi Hank, All I wish to do is to be educated on this point. Why in the book of Acts were the believers baptized immediately, I didn't mean for it to take on this long thread, but the bible do tell us to be ready to give an answer to any who ask us of the reason of the hope that is in us, with meekness and fear, and I hope that I'm doing just that. I understand you view of salvation and I'm not knocking it, but I myself have a different view, but I respect your view. Makarios could not or would not answer the questions I asked him, he would just say that I was wrong about immediate baptism in the book of Acts and would not give scripture for what he was stating, and you help? |

You're back? Prove it, show me where I went wrong, don't just say "Wrong again" and don't back it up with scripture. Show me Where. Don't be AFRAID. | ||||||
31 | What if you don't obey that command? | Rom 6:4 | The Bible is Right | 56674 | ||
Ha,Ha, that's funny. In the book of Acts there are nine conversions, all one has to do, is do a word study on each one, then you will see it for youself. Don't let nobody tell what God didn't say in his word. All of this matches what Jesus said in Mark 16:16, but people want to throw this text out of the bible. We need to ask WHY? | ||||||
32 | What if you don't obey that command? | Rom 6:4 | The Bible is Right | 56673 | ||
You see he, Philip taught the eunuch, he believed, confess the name of Jesus Christ and was Baptized. All you have to do is read the story, it happened IMMEDIATELY. You can play on words all you want to, but everytime you read it, it will show that it was IMMEDIATELY. | ||||||
33 | What if you don't obey that command? | Rom 6:4 | The Bible is Right | 56670 | ||
Now I will say nothing else on this matter, but once again, where is your evidence? You have not presented not one scripture in the book of Acts that proved I was wrong about my statement. And all you have to do is show one, (just one), and that will shut me up for good, unless I want to be blind to the truth. Remember God is watching us deal with this issue. And the apostle Paul said in 1Thess. 5:21 Prove all things; hold fast that which is good. You must do what the bible says. |

34 | What if you don't obey that command? | Rom 6:4 | The Bible is Right | 56669 | ||
And he took them that very hour of the night and washed their wounds, and immediately he was baptized, he and all his household. (NASB) AMPLIFIED Acts 16:33 And he took them the same hour of the night and bathed [them because of their bloody] wounds, and he was baptized immediately and all [the members of] his [household]. I got this passage from two translations and I know you are aware of. And they both say the same thing about what hour the jailer was baptized. Please be honest with yourself, and don't play on words, because it can't be any clearer than what is given. |
||||||
35 | Isn't this verse saying that we rise to | Rom 6:4 | The Bible is Right | 56668 | ||
Again Please give scripture to show me where I went wrong so that I can change and be right. Which one of the conversions in the book of Acts where it took days, weeks, months, or years can you show me so that I can study to show myself approve unto God. Until you can show me word for word I have to believe that the nine conversions, they believed and were baptized that same hour. |
||||||
36 | Isn't this verse saying that we rise to | Rom 6:4 | The Bible is Right | 56666 | ||
Yes I read it. And I gave my view about it. | ||||||
37 | What if you don't obey that command? | Rom 6:4 | The Bible is Right | 56665 | ||
Once again it's not about who's wrong or right, the Bible is Right and I know you can agree with that. But if this is the last time we get to talk about this subject, Please show me UNEQUIVOCALLY where someone in the book of Acts was not baptized in the same hour. Just one person who believed. |
||||||
38 | What if you don't obey that command? | Rom 6:4 | The Bible is Right | 56655 | ||
Don't mind me, I'm not upset at all I think this is the best subject on the forum. All I want to know is why do we take baptism so lightly. We have heard it said, that it is not neccessary for salvation, but yet when you read about the conversions in the book of Acts the believers were baptized immediately, and I wanted to know why. |

39 | What if you don't obey that command? | Rom 6:4 | The Bible is Right | 56652 | ||
Acts 8:36 And as they went on their way, they came unto a certain water: and the eunuch said, See, here is water; what doth hinder me to be baptized? Just water! |
||||||
40 | What if you don't obey that command? | Rom 6:4 | The Bible is Right | 56648 | ||
It's not a matter of believing me, but please believe the bible! I didn't add anything, you can write it with your own translation and it will still say the same thing I say. All were baptized immediately after they believed. And all I do is take it at face value, you are the one who don't believe what you read. |
