Try obeying Acts 2;38 and Peter will be happy.Peter is still being sifted as wheat.
We will pray for him.

The fake, phony, pretending to be the church, fraudsters, are the Acts skippers that ignore Acts 2:38.Looks like a whole lotta lovin going on in the early church in acts chapter 2.
What fraud are you speaking of??
Being baptized in Jesus' name?
Perhaps some are baptized in someone else's name.
You know what happens to them don't ya?
The demons don't recognize them and take up housing in their hearts and minds.
I prefer baptism in the name of the Lord.
Amen?

Baptism is always and only valid by saying the name of Jesus Christ.
There is a difference between running away and shaking the dust off my shoes and moving on. Once I have presented all the facts to back up my argument from scripture, yet you still stubbornly refuse to accept the truth, why should I continue to waste my time beating a dead horse? Continue to argue just for the sake of arguing is childish.The reason you run away is because you know very well I addressed your post.
Happy trails.

You are not taking all of the Scriptures into consideration and it truly amazes me to see how everything that I explained to you in post #65 just went right over your head. You are a confused child who has nothing better to do than stir up contention with believers and promote your perverted water gospel.I let the scripture tell us what it says the living water is...
John 7:38 He that believeth on me, as the scripture hath said, out of his belly shall flow rivers of living water.
[39] (But this spake he of the Spirit, which they that believe on him should receive: for the Holy Ghost was not yet given; because that Jesus was not yet glorified.)
You then cry and run away.

I already went over this with you in post #38, but unfortunately, I can see that everything I explained to you in that post went right over your head as well. I’m beginning to believe you are incorrigible.This is what YOU call "perverted"...
Mark 16:15 And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature.
[16] He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned.
[17] And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues;
John 3:5 Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God.
Acts 22:16 And now why tarriest thou? arise, and be baptized, and wash away thy sins, calling on the name of the Lord.
Acts 2:38 Then 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 gift of the Holy Ghost.
Yes!Does baptism save us or not?...
21 The 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:
Yes or no?
A more careful reading, perhaps, because that's not what He said.Context my friend.
Also, Jesus said to pluck your eyes out and amputate your hand....unless you are perfect....
I wasn't put on this earth to please Peter.Try obeying Acts 2;38 and Peter will be happy.
He thinks Jesus was strangely saying this....
Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of HIS MOTHER'S AMBIOTIC FLUID and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God.
