Bible Note: Here again you say who's wrong and who's right! The bible is right! When Paul recounts his conversion He states Acts 22:16 And now why tarriest thou? arise, and be baptized, and wash away thy sins, calling on the name of the Lord. What are we to do with this plain statement of scripture. GET MY POINT, CLEAR! Do you believe that Paul is speaking of water baptism, when he speaking of works? I notice in listening to what you were saying about faith only, and how you use the latter part of Mark 16:16 you say that baptism is not mentioned in the text, well baptism in water is not mentioned the text you are refering to no where. So how do you come to such conclusions on the subject of baptism in water? When we look at Romans 3,4,5,6 we must tie all of it together to understand what is being conveyed to the reader, Romans 6:1-9 Paul in verse 3,4,5 gives us good information on baptism and what it does for us, let me stop here and ask you a question once again, did water baptism come from God or is this some man made doctrine? |
