It's easy to see why Satan's messengers want to replace the Blood of Jesus with water! Water can't wash away sins! ONLY the Blood of Jesus!when your crucified on a cross and accept your punishment as penance for your sins and make a humble pray and hear these words words from Jesus ok till then the ordinary means of the grace of justification is faith and baptism

where does ez 36: 25:27 Say “faith alone”?
where does scripture says we have died with Christ by “faith alone”?
Where does it say we are sealed by faith alone?
Rom 6:3 Know ye not, that so many of us as were baptized into Jesus Christ were baptized into his death?
where does scripture say we are members of Christ and his church by “faith alone”?

For by one Spirit are we all baptized into one body, whether we be Jews or Gentiles, whether we be bond or free; and have been all made to drink into one Spirit.
where does scripture says we put on Christ by “faith alone”?
Faith alone?
1 Timothy 1:14
And the grace of our Lord was exceeding abundant with faith and love which is in Christ Jesus.
(Sound like faith alone?)
(Why a great amount of grace, don’t we just each need a tiny bit?)
Galatians 3:27
For as many of you as have been baptized into Christ have put on Christ.
Where does scripture say our sins are washed away by “faith alone”?
Acts 22:16
And now why tarriest thou? arise, and be baptized, and wash away thy sins, calling on the name of the Lord.
where does scripture say we are saved or justified by “faith alone”?
1 pet 3:21 The like figure whereunto even baptism doth also now save us!
The only reference in scripture to “faith alone” is James 2:24 NOT BY “FAITH ALONE”?
2 pet 1: 11 For so an entrance shall be ministered unto you abundantly into the everlasting kingdom of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ.
How can you enter by your own if it must be ministered to you? Baptism is done unto you, “not do it yourself by faith alone”
Ministered by the apostolic church!
2 Corinthians 8:19
And not that only, but who was also chosen of the churches to travel with us with this grace, which is administered by us to the glory of the same Lord, and declaration of your ready mind:
Jn 3:5 born again by faith alone?

When we first believed we are saved?
Romans 13:11
And that, knowing the time, that now it is high time to awake out of sleep: for now is our salvation nearer than when we believed.
How can salvation be nearer than when we first believed if you’re saved by believing?
1 pet 1:9 Receiving the end of your faith, even the salvation of your souls.
Matt 24:13 endures to the end Shall be saved.
How can salvation happen when we first believed if it’s the end?
If salvation is by “faith alone” then faith would be the greatest!
1 cor 13:13 charity is the greatest!
Even all faith much less “faith alone” without charity avails nothing!
1 cor 13:2

Simple. He didn't believe and confess.why was the other theif not saved?
Are YOU baptized Father, Son and Holy Spirit? Why won't you answer???why was the publican saved and not the pharisee?
Lk 18:9-14

Because one thief believed in the Lord Jesus Christ and was saved. The other thief continued to mock the Saviour.why was the other theif not saved?
Because the Pharisee was trusting in his own goodness to save him. His "prayer" consisted of telling God all the good things he had done, and favourably comaring himself to others, especially the publican:why was the publican saved and not the pharisee?
Lk 18:9-14

Excellent!!!Because one thief believed in the Lord Jesus Christ and was saved. The other thief continued to mock the Saviour.
Because the Pharisee was trusting in his own goodness to save him. His "prayer" consisted of telling God all the good things he had done, and favourably comaring himself to others, especially the publican:
(Luk 18:11) The Pharisee stood and prayed thus with himself, 'God, I thank You that I am not like other men—extortioners, unjust, adulterers, or even as this tax collector.
(Luk 18:12) I fast twice a week; I give tithes of all that I possess.'
The publican trusted for his salvation to God and His mercy:
(Luk 18:13) And the tax collector, standing afar off, would not so much as raise his eyes to heaven, but beat his breast, saying, 'God, be merciful to me a sinner!'
the merits of His blood are only available in baptism!It's easy to see why Satan's messengers want to replace the Blood of Jesus with water! Water can't wash away sins! ONLY the Blood of Jesus!
must believe all Christ has revealed including baptism mk 16:16Romans 10:9-10
9 that if you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved.
10 For with the heart one believes unto righteousness, and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.
yes born again n baptism!Simple. He didn't believe and confess.
Are YOU baptized Father, Son and Holy Spirit? Why won't you answer???
they both believed and the bad theif even said save us?Because one thief believed in the Lord Jesus Christ and was saved. The other thief continued to mock the Saviour.

NOBODY l in the Bible was baptized Father, Son and Holy Spirit! Does that mean you're not saved because you're not baptized correctly??yes born again n baptism!
Must? Does that mean you're heading for Hell because you're not baptized correctly?must believe all Christ has revealed including baptism mk 16:16
