Subject: Is baptism for salvation? (Mark 16:16) |
Bible Note: Aixien, "It is true. Look it up and you will find a long conversation, accusations, different opinions, and no agreement. Wouldn’t it be nice if you could come to a place like this and find an authoritative answer?" Yes it would be. I count myself fortunate to have such a place in the teaching authoity of my Church. Th buck stops somewhere there and these type of thorny debates are eventually put to rest by an authoritative pronouncement. For example, on this forum there is a lot of debate about whether John 3:5 refers to baptism. For me it is a settled issue. That is one of maybe seven passages which my Church has declared difinitive authortative interpretation. A few others that I can immediately think of in the same category are the interetptation of John 6 with Luke 22:17-22, Mark 14:22-24, Matt26:26-28, 1 Cor 11:23-25 and James 5:14-15. Emmaus |
