Yes! It's very clear that baptism is prior to salvation. Without being baptized, you're absolutely not yet saved. Impossible to he saved prior to baptism.

What is heaven and what is the kingdom? There are heavens (plural), the immediate heaven above us and also paradise, the third heaven. There's also the kingdom of heaven in heaven itself but also the kingdom of heaven on earth which is the church. The thief on the cross was in "heaven" with...

Yes. It's very obvious it wasn't written TO us which most people don't understand and therefore misinterpret what was written and how it may apply to us today.

3 OT references to the "sons of God". Who or what were they??? Good question! Gen 6 "1And it came to pass, when men began to multiply on the face of the earth, and daughters were born unto them, 2That the sons of God saw the daughters of men that they were fair; and they took them wives of all...

Ecclesiastes 12:13 13 Let us hear the conclusion of the whole matter: Fear God, and keep his commandments: for this is the whole duty of man

Keep in mind the bible is about mankind and primarily the earth, not the galaxy or universe. And there's really not much detail at all about the earth which is another subject altogether and causes much controversy and speculation due to the scant information provided to us in the bible. I'm...

What is marriage and when do you really become married? Is it after some formal or elaborate ceremony or process, such as when a justice of the peace, ordained minister or “priest” of some "church" mumbles some words in front of you both while holding a bible or some other “religious” book...

I've posted this previously. 2 scriptures to consider. Genesis 6:6 "6And it repented the LORD that he had made man on the earth, and it grieved him at his heart." Why does the above say "on the earth"? If the earth was the only place humans were made on, then those words would be...

Yes simple to a simpleton who believes too that clouds are made of cotton candy

Well, baptism has nothing whatsoever to do with "public acknowledgement before orhers" and there are no scriptures to state, suggest, or even infer that is the reason. Look at the conversion of the Ethiopian eunuch in Acts 8. Who was there? Just him and his baptizer, Philip in the middle of...

He is not understanding how the blood of Christ is contacted which is by baptism. Romans 6:4-5 tells you that. We're baptized into his death; it was by his death that his blood was shed, and baptism is how we make the connection to the blood of Christ. 4Therefore we are buried with him by...

I'm done with you. Just continue on ignoring scriptures you don't like. Goodbye

You continue to cherry pick the scriptures. You can't take one and base doctrine on it alone while ignoring the rest on the subject, but rather you must look at all the pertinent scriptures on any given subject and take them all into consideration so as to arrive at the proper abd intended...

To answer your question, YES! Everyone, absolutely every, single person is/was in sin prior go baptism which is the only thing pet the scriptures that removes it. And you lack understanding of how sin is removed once you've been baptized and have become a child of God It's by repentance. Read...

I explained this before but once more for you: If you're in sin, you can't be saved and you aren't saved until you're baptized for the remission of sins according to Acts 2:38, not before..that's what the scriptures say unless you ignore them. Saved means saved from your sins which separates...

Yes. Confession is ONE aspect of the salvation process, but just one. The Ethiopian eunuch did it in Acts 8, but after he confessed his belief, he was immediately baptized by Philip. So, what are all the necessary steps? 1. Belief/faith 2. Confession of belief 3. Repentance (Acts 2:38) 4...

You don't know what you're talking about. If you're in sin, you're not saved, and the scriptures clearly teach that baptism is what removes sin. Acts 2:38, 38Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall...

That's wierd, cuz that's not what the bible says! You said "baptism saves no one!!" 1 Peter 3:21 21The like figure whereunto even baptism doth also now save us (not the putting away of the filth of the flesh, but the answer of a good conscience toward God,) by the resurrection of Jesus Christ:

Hebrews 6:4-6. The warning and consequences to the newly converted Jews; so yes, you can lose your salvation. 4For it is impossible for those who were once enlightened, and have tasted of the heavenly gift, and were made partakers of the Holy Ghost, 5And have tasted the good word of God, and...

Only one way according to scripture. Baptism into the body of Christ, the church. By immersion into him, your sins are remitted and you also receive the gift of the Holy Ghost (Acts 2:38-47). It's at this point you become a child of God and a Christian.
