    The Baptism That Saves: What Most People Miss in Acts 11:16

    Spirit baptism is the reality and water.baptism is the picture of the reality. Your biased interpretation of Acts 2:38 (your pet verse) remains your achilees heel. You just cannot accept the fact that the only logical and Biblical conclusion when properly harmonizing scripture with scripture is...

    The Baptism That Saves: What Most People Miss in Acts 11:16

    "Baptized into Christ" does not mean water baptized into the body of Christ, as water-salvationists erroneously teach. That is only accomplished through Spirit baptism. (1 Corinthians 12:13) Now in what "sense" would a believer be water baptized into Christ? In the same "sense" that the...

    The Baptism That Saves: What Most People Miss in Acts 11:16

    There is a difference between receiving the gift of the Holy Spirit and being filled with the Holy Spirit and speaking in tongues. (Acts 2:4) All believers receive the gift of the Holy Spirit (Acts 10:43-45; Acts 11:17; 15:7-9; 1 Corinthians 12:13; Ephesians 1:13) but not all speak in tongues...

    "Whoever believes and is baptized will be saved, but whoever does not believe will be condemned."

    Mark 16:16 - He who believes and is baptized will be saved (general cases without making a qualification for the unusual case of someone who believes but is not baptized) but he who does not believe will be condemned. The omission of baptized with "does not believe" shows that Jesus does not...

    Believe in Christ and Be Saved ?

    If faith is not firmly rooted and established then they are easy prey. Genuine Christians remain. "Nominal" Christians turn back when they only had one foot out the door.

    The Baptism That Saves: What Most People Miss in Acts 11:16

    I see through your little charade in your efforts to discredit Spirit baptism and turn this "one" baptism into water baptism in order to support your water gospel. Matthew 3:11 - As for me, I baptize you with water for repentance, but He who is coming after me is mightier than I, and I am not...

    The Baptism That Saves: What Most People Miss in Acts 11:16

    If it's so different then why do so many translations say BY? CEB We were all baptized by one Spirit into one body, whether Jew or Greek, or slave or free, and we all were given one Spirit to drink. CJB For it was by one Spirit that we were all immersed into one body, whether Jews or...

    Believe in Christ and Be Saved ?

    The without obeying part (no works) confirms a spurious belief. Faith without works is dead. (James 2:14-20) Of course, the demons continue to obey Satan. Their trust and reliance are in Satan (and not in Jesus Christ) as demonstrated by their rebellion in heaven and continuous evil works. Even...

    The Baptism That Saves: What Most People Miss in Acts 11:16

    Ephesians is right. Numerous translations say, "by one Spirit". Whether "by" one Spirit or "in" one Spirit, the Holy Spirit is the agent or element through which this baptism occurs. Both phrases point to the Holy Spirit uniting all believers into the body of Christ. So, both "by" and "in" are...

    Believe in Christ and Be Saved ?

    We also see the word believe (pisteuo) in James 2:19, in which we read the demons believe "mental assent" that "there is one God," but they do not believe (pisteuo) in the Lord Jesus Christ and are not saved. (Acts 16:31) In Luke 8:13, this temporary, shallow belief that had no root, lacked...

    The Baptism That Saves: What Most People Miss in Acts 11:16

    Ephesians 4:5 - ..one Lord, one faith, one baptism. 1 Corinthians 12:13 - For by one Spirit we were all baptized into one body--whether Jews or Greeks, whether slaves or free--and have all been made to drink into one Spirit. So, even though there are baptisms "plural" (Matthew 3:11) there is...
