AMPLIFIED 2015 | Acts 2:38 And Peter said to them, "Repent [change your old way of thinking, turn from your sinful ways, accept and follow Jesus as the Messiah] and be baptized, each of you, in the name of Jesus Christ because of the forgiveness of your sins; and you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit. |
Subject: baptism when and who |
Bible Note: Hi CeeBee I congratulate you on your stand not to go ahead with the baptism at this stage. I think it is important to note that Peter said, "Repent... and then be baptised" meaning to turn from our ways first, and then be baptised. Peter did not say, "Be baptised, and then repent."
