Repent, Repent, Repent...That means turn to Jesus...No baptism is valid without turning to Jesus first... At the time immediately following the Resurrection of Christ, the majority of individuals coming into the church were adults who could repent. However, these same individuals brought their children who were also baptized without a formal declaration of repentance.
Jesus baptizes with the Holy Ghost...NOT the Holy Ghost and water...Just the Holy Ghost as opposed to water...
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." - John 3:3-5
"Can any man forbid water, that these should not be baptized, which have received the Holy Ghost as well as we? And he commanded them to be baptized in the name of the Lord. Then prayed they him to tarry certain days." - Acts 10:47-48
YOU telling a Christan about salvation! LOL!
Being so excited that you didn’t KNOW Iscool already mentioned his baptism by fire!
Settle down NY’er.
At the time immediately following the Resurrection of Christ, the majority of individuals coming into the church were adults who could repent.Sorry NYer...No one comes into the church, the Body of Jesus Christ without first repenting...No one...To suggest that someone can be in Christ and be filled with the Holy Spirit without accepting Jesus first as his/her Savior is beyond ludicrous...That's the gospel of Hell...
However, these same individuals brought their children who were also baptized without a formal declaration of repentance.
No they didn't...YOu have no evidence of that...Not only pure conjecture but goes against the rest of the scriptures...
