Bible Question (short): can she be baptized? |
Question (full): 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? |
