I had a dream

TopherNelson · Dec 22, 2015

I had a dream. I was baptized in a dream by a priest. I saw Jesus and walked with him. I ate with him and with friends and we started joking around. But near the end of the dream, he told me to get ready. He is coming soon. He is coming soon. I saw a vision, I was eating with my friends. But then suddenly came heavy rains and mighty winds and the earth starts to shake and people starts to run. Then I am fully awake.

The next day, I opened the bible randomly and this was given:

Ezekiel 12:17-28
17 The word of the Lord came to me: 18 “Son of man, eat your bread with trembling and drink your water with shaking and anxiety. 19 Then say to the people of the land: This is what the Lord God says about the residents of Jerusalem in the land of Israel: They will eat their bread with anxiety and drink their water in dread, for their[a] land will be stripped of everything in it because of the violence of all who live there. 20 The inhabited cities will be destroyed, and the land will become a desolation. Then you will know that I am Yahweh.”
Again the word of the Lord came to me: 22 “Son of man, what is this proverb you people have about the land of Israel, which goes:
The days keep passing by,
and every vision fails?
23 Therefore say to them: This is what the Lord God says: I will put a stop to this proverb, and they will not use it again in Israel. But say to them: The days draw near, as well as the fulfillment of every vision. 24 For there will no longer be any false vision or flattering divination within the house of Israel. 25 But I, Yahweh, will speak whatever message I will speak, and it will be done. It will no longer be delayed. For in your days, rebellious house, I will speak a message and bring it to pass.” This is the declaration of the Lord God.
26 The word of the Lord came to me: 27 “Son of man, notice that the house of Israel is saying, ‘The vision that he sees concerns many years from now; he prophesies about distant times.’ 28 Therefore say to them: This is what the Lord God says: None of My words will be delayed any longer. The message I speak will be fulfilled.” This is the declaration of the Lord God.

Right now, I have a urge to tell everyone. Literally everyone that the Kingdom of the Lord is at hand.

I feel I no longer need to be baptized by anyone else. What do you think?

The prophetic utterance is dear! God bless and thanks for sharing! As far as baptism pray that the Lord will lead you to a good church, when you find that church express an interest to the elders about baptism.

TopherNelson · Dec 22, 2015

But I'm already baptized in the dream.

Stuff church, go to Christ, if you have recieved teh Holy Spirit than al lis well, it all you need, stay away from mens religion worst place you can be. If you are comfortable in church, well its a bit like crabs in a pot of cold water, sitting on the stove, warms up they feel comfortable, than they are dead.

I am not comfortable in any churches. That's why I never got baptized by anyone.

David,

Don't you think you need to be obedient to Jesus command:

18 And Jesus came and said to them, “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. 19 Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, 20 teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you. And behold, I am with you always, to the end of the age” (Matt 28:18-20 ESV)?

Being baptised is foundational - according to these verses - in being made a disciple.

If you want to grow as a Christian, I urge you to attend a church that associates baptism with discipleship - and then be baptised.

A dream isn't a substitute for real life, this rain and wind could be a foreshadowing of an outpouring of the spirit that will come in real life if you are baptized. If you can find the right church and be baptized there you can be a blessing to them as much as they to you.

Once your with the right church you would also be better prepared to help others outside the church.

My church is not a physical building. My church have Christ as the head. All believers are part of this church. I am part of it and you are part of it. I really can't stand any of the congregations at my area.

If you desire to be like Christ, my only advice, seek Him while He may be found, you wont find life or truth anywhere else.

Yes, all Christians are members of this church, but if we want to obey God we must also be part of a local congregation. Wherever Paul and the other apostles preached the gospel they established local congregations which were called churches. Why would they have done this if these congregations weren't necessary?

And let us consider how to stir up one another to love and good works, not neglecting to meet together, as is the habit of some, but encouraging one another, and all the more as you see the Day drawing near.
(Hebrews 10:24-25 ESV)

This is a command from God and if you refuse to obey you are not serving God as well as you could.

Why can't you stand any of the congregations in your area? Is it because none of them teach the truth of the Bible? If this is the case perhaps you are right in not joining one of them. But if they do teach the truth and your aversion is based on your personal likes or dislikes, remember that obedience to God takes priority over our personal preferences. These people are your brothers and sisters in Christ. Sometimes we may find our relatives hard to get along with but that doesn't change the fact that they are our relatives. If they are true believers you will be associating with them in heaven, so why not try to get to know them better now?

nice. there are three baptisms, and you are right imo, none of them are rituals. they are, all, life-changing events. The first is being born. The second is spirit, and the third is fire.

we must also be part of a local congregation

No you dont that is just religion talking, making slaves of men, all we need is Christ if He is not enough for you than the world will never be enough..

Luk_3:16 John answered, saying unto them all, I indeed baptize you with water; but one mightier than I cometh, the latchet of whose shoes I am not worthy to unloose: he shall baptize you with the Holy Ghost and with fire:

Act_1:5 For John truly baptized with water; but ye shall be baptized with the Holy Ghost not many days hence.

Act_11:16 Then remembered I the word of the Lord, how that he said, John indeed baptized with water; but ye shall be baptized with the Holy Ghost.
