Bible Question:
what is the tru process to be baptized like full emresion in water with repentence also then you recieve holy spirit or is the holy spirit (tongue's ) not really need'd after repenting and being baptize'd like in mathew 28:19 ? when do you get holy ghost after baptizm only ? |
Bible Answer: Greetings ptimpalasix! I believe that the Biblical 'method' of baptism is that of immersion. However, I believe that it is your preference whether you are immersed, poured on, or sprinkled, and I do not believe that the 'method' of water baptism really makes a difference. However, I do believe that water baptism is significant in that it is an outward and public expression of the inward Baptism of the Spirit that has already happened within. If you are baptised by water, then you are proclaiming publicly that you have indeed been changed, and that you are now a child of God. I believe that the Holy Spirit becomes a part of your life after you are Baptised by the Holy Spirit, and I believe that this happens at the moment of salvation, when you truly and earnestly accept Jesus into your heart. I do not believe that the gift of speaking in tongues has any bearing on the status of your salvation. If you can speak in tongues, then that is good, since tongues is a sign for unbelievers (1 Cor. 14:22). But in no way should anyone feel inadequate or doubt their salvation if they do not speak in tongues. Blessings to you, Makarios |
