Subject: when a I saved and when baptised |
Bible Note: Brad, Yes! 1 Corinthians 15:1-4 is a profound passage! Amen! And those that fallow as well as they testify to the eye witnesses of our risen Saviour!!! And what do you make of this? Could we say Paul didn't make a practice of baptizing? 1 Corinthians 1:14-17 (NASB) 1:14 I thank God that I baptized none of you except Crispus and Gaius, 1:15 so that no one would say you were baptized in my name. 1:16 Now I did baptize also the household of Stephanas; beyond that, I do not know whether I baptized any other. 1:17 For Christ did not send me to baptize, but to preach the gospel, not in cleverness of speech, so that the cross of Christ would not be made void. And I agree with you regarding mankind! It is also an interesting thing to study what scripture teaches us about our corrupted nature and look at what we see from mankind, including ourselves of course! Just my opinion, but understanding the grace of God and our corrupted nature and seeing how mankind struggles so with a nature drawn to sin goes a long way in learning to hate sin. At least it does for me! Steve |
