NASB | 1 John 5:6 This is the One who came by water and blood, Jesus Christ; not with the water only, but with the water and with the blood. It is the Spirit who testifies, because the Spirit is the truth. |
AMPLIFIED 2015 | 1 John 5:6 This is He who came through water and blood [His baptism and death], Jesus Christ--not by the water only, but by the water and the blood. It is the [Holy] Spirit who testifies, because the Spirit is the truth. [He is the essence and origin of truth itself.] |
Subject: baptism important ,why the delay? |
Bible Note: So you are saying that today we have the Bible, and when a mature Christian shares his faith with a non-christian, he does not have the commands of Christ fresh in his mind and heart and is incapable of baptizing a person right after conversion to show a "new birth" has taken place. That makes absolutely no sense |
