I couldn't stand it any longer; to sit and watch the perversion of scripture taking place...Here's what you posted...

Titus 3:5 ... not because of any righteous deeds we had done but because of his mercy, he saved us through the bath of rebirth (baptism) and renewal by the holy Spirit.

Here's what the bible really says...

Tit 3:5 Not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to his mercy he saved us, by the washing of regeneration, and renewing of the Holy Ghost;

It is NOT a bath that regenerates us...Read the verse...It's the regeneration that washes us, not water...And there's not an ounce of water any where near regeneration...And what is regeneration???

1Pe 3:21 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:

It ain't rub a dub dub, 3 Catholics in a tub...The baptism that saves us is a clear conscience toward God; repentance...

So Titus 3:5 isn’t what the Bible really says? Because it says Baptism is regeneration.

Unless “the washing of regeneration and renewal of the Holy Spirit,” somehow isn’t Baptism.
