61 | What if you don't obey that command? | Rom 6:4 | The Bible is Right | 56636 | ||
That was not my intention to prove anything, I just ask a question. Why did they get baptized the same hour they believed? I stated that people take baptism into Christ to lightly: And may we need to find out more about it than we know. My personal belief is that I believe that baptism is just as important as confessing the name of Jesus Christ, Acts 8:36,37 here it saids: And as they went on their way: and they came unto a certain water: and the eunuch said, See, here is water what doth hinder me to be baptized? 37 And Philip said, If thou believest with all thine heart, thou mayest. And he answered and said, I believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God. 38 And he commanded the chariot to stand still: and they went down both into the water, both Philip and the eunuch; and he baptized him. 39 And when they were come up out of the water, the Spirit of the Lord caught away Philip, that the eunuch saw him no more: and he went on his way rejoicing. I don't know about you, but when I read that story of the eunuch's conversion I rejoice, because even in the desert God will make a way. It let me know the type of preaching Philip did also, because the eunuch is the one who brought up water after being taught, and he ask Philip the question, See, here is water, What doth hinder me to be baptized? Philip answered and said, If you believe with all your heart you may! The eunuch said I believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God, then Philip baptized him immediately after hearing that confession. I know most people don't believe that that had anything to do with salvation but I believe it did. And I'm trying to understand why you don't believe what happened here. |

I just want to know are there any other cases like this one. And I know there is only one plan of salvation, and I know when we run upon something that is different from the rest of what the bible says about conversion then it must be a special event, that has a reason that we must study to understand. And to you last question, I'm not a member of any denomination! |

I went to the two-or-three hours so that you would not run from the issue, when I showed you just two of the nine text where it showed believers being baptized in the same hour you tried to say that the very word "hour" was not in the text, and instead you used the word "immediately" which means at once, right now, right then. I could not believe that you never read that before, about believers being baptized immediately. |

First of all "We ought to obey God rather than men" Acts 5:29 Just because a man put something in a book, doesn't make it right. "THE BIBLE IS RIGHT" Mr McArthur disagree's with Jesus then, Because Jesus said in Luke 13:3,5 I tell you, No: but, except you repent, you shall all likewise perish. And Matt 10:32 Whosoever therefore shall confess me before men, him will I confess also before my Father which is in heaven. Mark 16:16 He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; These are the things that make faith perfect. James 2:22,23. |

Please point out where I went wrong! You asked for evidence, and I gave you the evidence. What's the problem? By the way that's not theory, It's a fact, It's exactly what the bible saids. The Bible is Right! |

67 | 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. |

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! |

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. |

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. |

Yes I read it. And I gave my view about it. | ||||||
72 | 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. |

73 | 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. |

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. |

75 | 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. | ||||||
76 | 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? | ||||||
77 | What if you don't obey that command? | Rom 6:4 | The Bible is Right | 56677 | ||
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. | ||||||
78 | What if you don't obey that command? | Rom 6:4 | The Bible is Right | 56680 | ||
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? |

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 |

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. |
