Bible Question (short): Andrew please explain? |
Question (full): Hello Andrew, I would like for you to clear something up for me. In your response to godschild 73 you wrote, "If you have not been born again then ask Christ to save you from you sins, be baptize and continue to live after the scriptures." Why did you say be baptized? It is my understanding from the rest of the forum that baptism is not needed. Even though I do not side with the rest of the forum for I believe that baptism is essential for salvation if done the right way and with the understanding of what the person is doing. I would appreciate it if you would tell me which side you are on since in your reply you mentioned baptism. Thanks, Raven |
