Subject: Does baptism show we're a follower? |
Bible Note: There were no physical water baptisms by Jesus Christ's disciples after John the Baptist went to prison during Jesus Christ's entire Ministry on this Earth while He was in His sinless human flesh. The Scriptures i have already quoted overwhelmingly prove that Biblical fact and here are more. The Scriptures are very clear but if you do not want to see, then you won't, Jn 9. Ro 3:19. Now we know that what things soever the Law saith; it speaketh to them that are under the Law, that every mouth may be stopped and all the world may be brought under the Judgment of God 20. because by the works of the Law shall no flesh be justified in His sight for through the Law cometh the knowledge of sin. 21. But now apart from the Law a Righteousness of God hath been manifested, being witnessed by the Law and the Prophets [Does this include John the Baptist? Yes, it does.] 22. even the Righteousness of God through Faith in Jesus Christ unto all them that believe, for there is no distinction ... [Is this about Mt 6:33; Mk 1:14-15; Ro 1:16-21; etc? Yes, it is!] Lk 16:15. And He said unto them, "Ye are they that justify yourselves in the sight of men but God knoweth your hearts, for that which is exalted among men is an abomination in the sight of God. 16. The Law and the Prophets were until John. From that time the Gospel of the Kingdom of God is preached and every man entereth violently into it. 17. But it is easier for Heaven and Earth to pass away, than for one tittle of the Law to fall. 18. Everyone, that putteth away his wife and marrieth another, committeth adultery and he that marrieth one that is put away from a husband committeth adultery." Ro 7: 1. Or are ye ignorant, brethren (for I speak to men who know the Law), that the Law hath dominion over a man for so long time as he liveth? 2. For the woman that hath a husband is bound by Law to the husband while he liveth but if the husband die, she is discharged from the Law of the husband. 3. So then if, while the husband liveth, she be joined to another man, she shall be called an adulteress but if the husband die, she is free from the Law, so that she is no adulteress, though she be joined to another man. 4. Wherefore, my brethren, ye also were made dead to the Law through the body of Christ, that ye should be joined to Another, even to Him who was raised from the dead, that we might bring forth fruit unto God. 5. For when we were in the flesh, the sinful passions, which were through the Law, wrought in our members to bring forth fruit unto death. 6. But now we have been discharged from the Law, having died to that wherein we were held, so that we serve in newness of the Spirit and not in oldness of the letter. [Only those who "serve in the newness of the Spirit" belong to the saving Law of the Spirit of Life and they belong to that Law after beginning at Mt 6:33. What, exactly, did you find first? Jesus Christ expects us to first find something very specific but it is in plain sight.] anne |
