Hahaha ain't my "lie" must be God's since the scriptures, HIS scriptures, clearly teach that. Goodbye, and good riddens to you!

I post exactly what the scriptures say by posting THEM. It's a lie to contradict them blatantly as you and others here do. YOU are the one that needs to think about what YOU are posting as it's contrary to God's written word.

At the very time you're baptized, you are saved and regenerated. Your actions after that are a different matter. And Peter says that baptism DOES save us contrary to your comment (1 Peter 3:21). 21The like figure whereunto even baptism doth also now save us (not the putting away of the filth...

I have no idea what you're attempting to say. If you're baptized, you are regenerated. You become a new creature, you're born again, a child of God and member of the Lord's body which is the church.

I'm NOT catholic

You make zero sense and have it all backwards. You're not born again, born of water, UNTIL you're baptized.

Water baptism is the final stage in the salvation process. Your sins are not remitted until you're baptized. Acts 216And now why tarriest thou? arise, and be baptized, and wash away thy sins, calling on the name of the Lord. 1 Peter 3:21 21The like figure whereunto even baptism doth also now...

You're assuming things. After an apostle's departure from where ever, preaching, converting, and Baptisms obviously continued which is how churches grow; and all may not necessarily believe immediately upon hearing.

Read a bit earlier too in 1 Cor 1 where Paul said he thanked God that he baptized only a few people, so who baptized the rest of the church there? So yes, Paul was sent primarily to preach. And I'm sure Apollos likewise preached but also did the majority of the baptizing obviously since the...

Apollos did most of the baptizing, "watered".

Paradise is not below the earth. It's the 3rd heaven. 2 Cor 12 2I knew a man in Christ above fourteen years ago, (whether in the body, I cannot tell; or whether out of the body, I cannot tell: God knoweth;) such an one caught up to the third heaven. 3And I knew such a man, (whether in the...

You don't understand that scripture. Read a bit further to 1 Cor 3:6 to understand what Paul meant. Paul primarily primarily preached, Apollos baptized, and God added to the body. 6I have planted, Apollos watered; but God gave the increase.

Goodbye go pedal nonsense to a fool that will believe it

You do not understand the thief on the cross issue at all. The new testament didn't start until the death of Jesus meaning he forgave the thief while the old covenant was still in place, no different than others he forgave such as the adulterous woman. Baptism likewise was not yet in effect...

YOU can say nope all you want but it won't change what the scriptures say. Goodbye, believe whatever you like.

Water saves no one but being baptized, immersed in water, into the body of Christ does

It, God's saving grace, IS 100% dependent upon our doing something which you erroneously call a "work". It ain't a work. It's obedience. Doing what we're told. Does he save without belief and faith? No. Neither does he save without us doing whatever is required of us. Repentance, confession, and...

Jesus truly saves us but only after we've been obedient

Baptism is symbolic but that doesn't mean that it's not absolutely essential. Peter says Baptism saves us. We're told it washes away sins such as in Acts 22:16. Symbolic yes, because it's not the water itself, but it's obedience no different than when Naaman finally obeyed, dipped 7 times in the...

A good example of the gospel, the 'good news' and it's message, would be the conversion of the Ethiopian eunuch in Acts 8. Not only was Jesus preached, but obviously, although not overtly stated therein, was sin and the need to be baptized as a remedy. Look at verses 36 and 37 below 36 And...
