Bible Question:
In John 3 Jesus is talking to Nicodemus could someone explain to me what going on here. I just want someone elses opion to see if it matches mine. A Jesus only friend says that this passage is saying that the only way you can be saved is by baptized in Jesus name and speak in tounges, and they use this chapter as an example also they use the book of Acts alot. I don't think that is true. Thanks and God bless in advance. Dab |
Bible Answer: Only because I need to be brief, I would refer you to my previous post of 110357, the latter portion. Keep studying God's Word and God bless. |
