SHOULD I BE WATER BAPTIZED?

[gpresdo]

pic is very importnt to mwnwy people and Considering you don't live a righteous life your religion says you're going to hell. That's quite a problem for you.

Would you like to meet the real Jesus?

I urge you to stop personal attacks and respect others opinions..... always allowing the Bible guidance to prevail is suggested.
This topic is critical for many who have been misled by..... new age religion..... teachings against baptism, which is contrary to God's word and intent.
If you are inclined to disagree with the Bible it will be most helpful if you explain why?
Give us one reason why you disagree with scripture which has been posted?
Thanks.

I urge you to study the Bible. That will b helpful.

I have. Baptism and works are not a means of salvation.

There are many more references

OK, so you went and cut and pasted verses that mention baptism. Big deal.

Why didn't you post the verses where people were saved prior to being baptized?
Why didn't you post the two verses that say who ever calls upon the name of the Lord will be saved?

What happen to the guy who accepts Jesus....then dies in battle just after believing?

The only righteousness we have is the righteousness of Christ Jesus that was imputed to us when our sins were imputed to Him on the cross.
But, you are proclaiming it's your own righteousness that saves you.

Baptism is calling on the name of the Lord.
You need to decide if u believe in the Bible, i see.

His sacrifice gives us ...grace...under which umbrella we can obtain forgiveness thereby b righteous. ...until the end.

 

[gpresdo]

What is believing in Jesus? Do you know? Serious question.

I will not participate in your elementary games.

You said I need to believe in the bible...OK, show me a verse that says..."Baptism is calling on the name of the Lord."

Grace is a free gift from God.....you can't obtain grace by doing something nor meriting it.

SHOULD I BE WATER BAPTIZED?​

I would say Yes …

IF you want to become a member of a man made church.

I would say Not required …

IF you want to become a member of Christ Jesus’ Church.

Glory to God,

Obeying Jesus is a false gospel?

Is there a verse for this?

I think the NT states that we are to obey...
NOT DISOBEY.

Matthew 28:19-20
19“Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit

20teaching them to observe all that I commanded you; and lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age.”


° Jesus commanded to baptize all disciples.
° Jesus commanded to teach all nations to observe what He has taught/commanded.

 

[CrowCross]

Obeying Jesus is a false gospel?

Absolutely not.
Every Christian should get baptized ONCE they are saved.

I agree.

There's a reason why infants were baptized in the early church.
Their parents were going to raise them as Christians and they did not want to deny them
the blessing of receiving the Holy Spirit.

Today this is no longer true and only those believing should be baptized.

Yes, some teach baptism replaced circumcision. I believe this is true for the Presbyterian Church today.

Their parents were going to raise them as Christians and they did not want to deny them
the blessing of receiving the Holy Spirit.

This is one of the reasons why some churches "dedicate" infants.

Today this is no longer true and only those believing should be baptized.
