Baptism

[Hnovilla]

His Name is Jesus!

"then Peter said unto them, 'Repent, and BE BAPTIZED everyone of you in the NAME of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and YOU SHALL receive the gift of the Holy Spirit'."

Using the witnesses of the apostles and prophets within the scriptures, answer these three questions:
(1) Is baptism NECESSARY?
(2) What is baptism FOR?
(3) In which NAME, if any, should anyone be baptised?

1)except a man be born of the water...he cannot enter in to the kingdom of God.

2)now baptism that corresponds to this SAVES US!!

3)for there is no other name under given among by which we must be saved...Jesus

[Hnovilla]

His NAME is Jesus!


Thelordisone: Amen. I know there are many that have also arrived at the same answer.
I was giving time for the detractors to answer. Those who believe that anyone is eligible to baptize in the wonderful NAME of Jesus: even those who DENY his NAME in the waters of baptism, or who DO NOT believe there is only ONE NAME "...in which we must be saved..."
I imagine that using the testimony of the apostles and prophets is too difficult for them.

There are three questions that should be addressed concerning Baptism. I will not go into the scriptures that confirm their veracity, seeing that this forum has its share of ministers. But these are given to those who might not yet have come into the fullness of the Gospel. These questions are:

1) Is Baptism Necessary?

2) What is Baptism For?

3) In Which NAME Should One be Baprized?

There are other questions that also could be asked. But these are the primary questions the CHURCH needs to know to relate to them that are outside. (Yes, I said OUTSIDE)

The Apostle Paul said,
"For I delivered unto you, first of all, THAT WHICH I also RECEIVED..." Beloved, no one can give what they don't have. No one can remit sins unless their sins have been remitted. No one can impart the Gospel, and not have the Gospel.

My answer is alot less complicated.

Jesus means "God is salvation", and the bible says there is no salvation in any other name :P

share that with some trinitarians

[logos]

it's in the Book.

[Hnovilla]

His NAME is Jesus!

Amen, logos. If we only dare to open it, it will speak the same to all men.
