Subject: And what about those who will die before |
Bible Note: Hank, you seem to leave out large parts of "The Baptist Faith And Message" that you claim to be of you own communion.You also added a great deal of information that I could not find in their doctrine. I use to be Baptist remember? Whether Baptism "in you mind" is under Justification or Santification makes no difference when it comes to Salvation. Part IV Salvation states "Salvation involves the redemption of the whole man, and is offered freely to all who accept Jesus Christ as Lord and Saviour, who by his own blood obtained eternal redemption for the believer. In its broadest sense salvation includes regeneration, justification, sanctification and glorification. There is no salvation apart from personal faith in Jesus Christ as Lord." This was taken from "The Baptist Faith And Message". How is santification is of any less importance to Justification when it comes to salvation? But I do agree with you, that the immersion in the name of the Triunity neither saves nor contributes to salvation in any way. The immersion in the name of Jesus, is however another matter. |
