Acts 2.41 makes it clear that those who were baptized were those who had gladly received the Apostle's preaching; they were baptized because they were believers, and not supposedly in order to become believers.

Keep up the Bible verse posting, ppl! :)

@RLT63 PS: Of course, witness tattoos don't have to be big; but the lady with all the SOLAs injected in shows in any case a confidence in the likelihood of such tattooing becoming a regular tool in witness. (All the young ppl with Bible verses tattooed with whom I have spoken seem to have...

@RLT63 Fact is in any case that God in Three Persons is deeply present in Scripture.

@Marvelloustime A reminder of the light and darkness contrast, and of the light that is Christ....

Clearly the entity involved in the linkage between the Lord's Supper and the Lord's coming mentioned in 1 Cor, 11:26 is the church.

@RLT63 For some Christians the pragmatic strategy seems to be that it should be seen in order that it can act as a witness tool; FYI, this lady probably saw the discomfort involved in becoming a tattooed woman with the Scripture doctrine design as a worthwhile investment for future witness...

@Nancy We indeed need to keep 'looking unto Jesus' (Hebrews 12.2) prayerfully; bearing in mind also the Acts 2:42 activities which continue.....

@Nancy Some of the notes can be very useful; I find the Thompson edition helpful. (Sometimes when there is a lot of additional info on the page, there can be a bit of an issue with eyesight and small print....) Good always to remember what is the actual text and what is comment, however...

We do need to encourage one another....
