Subject: To be saved must we be baptised? |
Bible Note: Hi Derdan, It is my humble opinion that baptism is not necessary for salvation. Think of the penitent thief that Jesus told, "Verily I say unto thee, To day shalt thou be with me in paradise." Luke 23:43 So, to enter into our inheritance, I feel we must accept Jesus as our Lord and our Savior,for we will then have received the Spirit of adoption, whereby we cry, Abba, Father. Jesus is the door, "I am the door: by me if any man enter in, he shall be saved, and shall go in and out, and find pasture." Jhn 10:9 "He that believeth on the Son hath everlasting life: and he that believeth not the Son shall not see life; but the wrath of God abideth on him." Jhn 3:36 "Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me." Jhn 14:6 blessings, tim |
