“One receives forgiveness of sins and the Holy Spirit at the same time. Knowing that, the correct way to translate Acts 2:38 is quite clear and that is why every reputable translation has for the forgiveness of sins, not because of. See Acts 22:16 for confirmation baptism is for the remission of sins and doesn’t follow the remission of sins.”
Thanks, but without understanding the context, you will be wrong every time.
Does Acts 22:16 say Paul had his sins forgiven before baptism or that he needs to be baptized to wash away his sins? Context.
