Subject: Teacher, when were the 11 rebaptized? |
Bible Note: Maybe the explanation I gave before is a bit simplistic so allow me to further elaborate. The context is speaking of the flood of Noah and a comparison is made. God saved Noah by water as God saves us through baptism. Is baptism a work? Look at how many years Noah labored but does God say of him? Heb 11:7 By faith Noah, being warned by God about things not yet seen, in reverence prepared an ark for the salvation of his household, by which he condemned the world, and became an heir of the righteousness which is according to faith. Further more I could give you some high theological wrangling about how it saves us but I would be giving an opinion. It really doesn’t matter the fact is God said it and that is it. If we believe it or not it does change what is said. If it agrees with our theological view or not it does change what has been said. |
