Regarding full immersion water baptism, can you supply the passages from Scripture that confirms what you wrote
Then you're going to have to explain
Acts 2:38
38Peter said to them, “Repent, and each of you be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins; and you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.
You missed post 199 and 201.
I don't have opinions.
I use scripture.
I explained very well...you don't have to accept anything in the NT.
Acts 2:38 a definite 100% as was then required whenever possible
Then later
1 Cor 1:17 For Christ sent me not to baptize - how do YOU explain that ?
You agree re Acts 2:38
If you post 1 Cor 1:17 I'll be happy to reply to it.
I don't have the NT memorized as yet.
Nor the ability to look it up
1 Cor 1:!7 For Christ sent me not to baptize, but to preach the gospel:
Here it is, looking forward to your explanation :)
1 Cor 1:17 For Christ sent me not to baptize, but to preach the gospel:
Why not sent to baptize ?
List the Gospel verses that Christ sent Paul to teach
Jesus DID send Paul to preach.
1 Corinthians 1:13-17
13Has Christ been divided into factions? Was I, Paul, crucified for you? Were any of you baptized in the name of Paul? Of course not! 14I thank God that I did not baptize any of you except Crispus and Gaius, 15for now no one can say they were baptized in my name. 16(Oh yes, I also baptized the household of Stephanas, but I don’t remember baptizing anyone else.) 17For Christ didn’t send me to baptize, but to preach the Good News—and not with clever speech, for fear that the cross of Christ would lose its power.
I'm sorry D,,,
I've lost track of our conversation.
As references I have posted on this thread tells us...baptism is required....as part of the sin cleansing process.
Children need not b baptized until age of accountability. See scriptures.

No one said “Baptism is not Required”
Baptism by the Holy Spirit IS Required.
Water baptism by men is not Required.
Then I see u do not believe in the Bible. If u need let me know for Bible reference postings as done before on this thread.

Sure I Believe the Bible…And not accountable for what You see.
Do you see any evidence… anywhere this man crucified next to Jesus…
1) was water Baptized?
2) promised to be saved ?
Luke 23:
[42] And he said unto Jesus, Lord, remember me when thou comest into thy kingdom.
[43] And Jesus said unto him, Verily I say unto thee, To day shalt thou be with me in paradise.
Baptism by the Holy Spirit IS Required.....That is true.
Water baptism is a symbol....an acknowledgement of how we died, are buried with Christ and will be raised with Christ. (I'm sure there's better way to say it)
So, if a soldier is in a battle..and comes to know Jesus when his soldier friend presents the gospel...believe it...then is killed 10 min later with out being baptized.....is he going to hell?
If a person hears a street preacher and believes.....then dies on the way to the baptismal....is he going to hell?
