Subject: Saved by belief or belief and baptism? |
Bible Note: Thank you for responding Im new to this site and I was unaware of how old the question was or how to tell the age of the question. I agree people do get baptised out of duty and because they feel that they have to, and not for the right spiritual reasons like they should. I also agree that the scriptures you posted refer to spirtiual baptism and its true without the spirit the symbolism IS meaningless but like asking Jesus to forgive us we must also take a step forward and be baptised with water and the spirit so that we may enter the kingdom of God. It is my belief that we must act in faith to be cleansed of sin and part of salvation is baptism. |
