22 | What of Baptism? | Bible general Archive 2 | ominous | 153666 | ||
i never said that i was'nt baptized. my parents had me baptized as a child, then i did it again as a teenager. but i later started studying and enjoying the truth that i found in the scriptures. let me ask a question; in rev 5:10 it tells us that christ made us kings and priests, doing away with the levitical priesthood. is it then not acceptable for one to baptize the members of his own house in the name of christ? | ||||||

when the church was originally formed, it was for the most part one body. sure there were little sects on this and that, but to me the teachings were more unified; as the doctrine was "new" to most. but now! there hundereds of sects. all claiming to be the "truth" i have not found one particular denomonation whose doctrine i fully agree with. my doctrine is the bible, and if you look at most denominations they stem from some disagreement that caused them to branch off from another.paul said that the body was to be unified, of one mind, "beware the concision" he warned. so for me to be baptised into this or that denomination it would be necessary for me to conform fully to its teachings. and i just havent found that yet.don't misunderstand i am a conservative christian. and do teach my children, and tell them of christ and his gift of love toward us. 1 john 4:1 tells us that we should investigate to be sure: as paul said that we are convinced in our own minds; to me this implies investigation. so thats my main "hinderance" from being baptised. and as a result, i do not feel that this is disobedience but the opposite! i take this very seriously, and christ has wrought great works in my life; as i look to him to guide me, so i do not feel that this discretion is counted as error toward me. i really love the fact that you all are so passionate. | ||||||

did you even read the scriptures i posted? basptism is a symbol of faith, not a means for salvation. yes faith is necessary for salvation, faith in christ, but you are not doomed for non-baptism. mark 16:17 said we would speak in tongues, do you also believe that we are doomed if we dont speak in tongues? 1 corinthians 12 said not all would do so. i simply mean that baptism is not necessary for redemption. not by works, lest any one should boast! | ||||||

26 | Divorce: believer or unbeliever | Matt 19:8 | ominous | 153586 | ||
she is to remain unmarried, as a fellow christian is to treat her as a sister 1timothy 5:1-2. and i doubt she would want to marry another unbeliever. or she must be reconciled to her husband. remember also what jesus said to the samaritan woman john 4:15-18 | ||||||
