Subject: What does water baptism do? |
Bible Note: Work with Acts 8:13-24. vs.16(For as yet he was fallen upon none of them: only they were baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus.) "In the name of the Lord Jesus" Is by the authority of the Lord Jesus. You say not for salvation, but yet its by the authority of the Lord Jesus, meaning Jesus commanded it to be done for the remission of sins. Is a person saved with his sins or must he have his sins remitted? Was the receiving the Holy Spirit for salvation in this text? |
