    Was Jesus Orthodox? (or Baptist?)

    What is "orthodox" specifically? One must clearly define this word, and in this case, the OP must do so. Until the word is defined commonly, the question can't be answered. It's obvious by the scriptures that Christ fulfilled the law. Is orthodoxy the law or is it the practice of the Jewish...

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

    Mk 16:15-16 15And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature. 16He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned. Rev 2:10 10 Fear none of those things which thou shalt suffer: behold, the devil shall cast...

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

    Just for clarity and your edification The thief was forgiven by Christ as he forgave others while alive, under the OT! Baptism wasn't a requirement of salvation until Christ died, at which point the NT began. Read Hebrews 9:16-17 16For where a testament is, there must also of necessity be the...

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

    Definitely water without a doubt for a variety if biblical reasons. From the beginning of the baptism phenomena starting with John the Baptist, it was water, termed the baptism of repentance for the remission of sins. The bible says there is one Lord, one faith, one baptism. The baptism in...

    Quoting Bible verses doesn't mean you have understanding of them and are rightly dividing and applying them

    There's one baptism, water, and one gospel which is for everyone. Anything else is NOT supported by scripture.

    Twist things as you may try, but that won't change the simplicity of the word. No further comments for or dialog with you.

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

    I don't know what you're reading or your ability to understand is, but you ain't making sense. And Acts2:38 is also very clear as it tells you at what point tge Holy Ghost is received. At the point of baptism; that's when the indwelling of the Spirit occurs. Acts 2:38 38Then Peter said unto...

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

    I'm not ignorant of that nor faced with any problem at all. No one said John's baptism was eternal or meant to be, no different than the jews yearly anointmeant. That's why the Ephesians had to be re-baptized into Christ for the remission of sins; in the name of Jesus Christ, by the authority of...

    It's not water? Why, because you say so cuz you don't want it to be? What is it then? It ain't spirit! Maybe kool-aid? Once again, you don't know what you're talking about. The entire history going back to John's baptisms has been water. The baptism of repentance for the remission of sins, right...

    We all who are/were baptized into Christ receive the gift of the Holy Ghost, the Spirit itself not spiritual gifts from from the Spirit 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 receive...

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

    Baptism comes after belief by obedience to the gospel, which leads to salvation. And the manifestation of the Spirit was the result of the laying on of the apostle's hands which all gifts were the result of.

    You know, baptism accomplishes more than just the remission of sins. By baptism you're also added to the body of Christ, the church. It's the only way to become a member of the body of Christ, by being baptized into Christ. Romans 6:3-11 3Know ye not, that so many of us as were baptized into...
