My entire youth group was baptized at the same time. I don’t even remember agreeing to it. I was 22 when I had the actual moment of acceptance and flood of pure emotion. That was 18 years ago and I recently just started my journey back to Christ. I know I don’t have to be baptized again, but part of me feels like it’s time.

Some churches misplace the meaning of baptism and use it as an initiation act and commitment or ceremony to become a member to “their” church instead of an act of profession of personal faith to Jesus. That’s why people stay away from churches that insist on people becoming re-baptized. Some churches use baptism as a commitment/joining to their church instead of to Jesus.

Sooo ur saying yes? The reason i searched for this video is because i was baptized in a catholic church as a baby but i DO NOT belive in mary but i belive in Jesus Chris our Lord Amen so can i be re baptized as a 14 year old Christian?

@@Portious You were christened as a baby in the Catholic Church which is not baptism as baptism is immersion in water. My children were christened too so I’m aware of what you’re writing. It is not baptism. I also understand the deification of Mary is wrong too. She was chosen to be the mother of Jesus. The Bible states that Jesus had brothers and sisters so after He was born she had other children. You’ll find good information by looking at videos from Beyond Today, United Church of God sermons, or Tomorrow’s World.

There is only one Baptism necessary for the Body of Christ in this dispensation according to the words Jesus gave us from Paul: Eph 4:5 One Lord, one faith, one baptism, That is by the Spirit into one body. No water in this one baptism. 1Cor 12:13 For by one Spirit are we all baptized into one body, whether we be Jews or Gentiles, whether we be bond or free; and have been all made to drink into one Spirit. This happens once we believe Jesus died on the cross shedding His blood, was buried, rose for the forgiveness of our sins. By trusting this alone by faith we are saved and are put into the body of Christ by the Spirit. This is the only baptism needed and takes place in this time we live. NO water necessary. The words and the math are very simple. One means "one". Put away your traditions and believe the bible. Whatever you think you are doing when you get wet has nothing to do with what Jesus told us to do through OUR apostle Paul. The one baptism we experience is done by the Spirit, not a man. Just read the verses and know the context in which they were written.

@@dkgrace6743 Michele Allen’s Testimony: I was born and raised in New Holstein, WI in a very good home. But deep inside of me there was an aching and hunger for more of God. When I was 17 I was shown in the Bible that “Ye must be born again”. I was told to say a “sinners prayer” I sincerely repented and cried rivers of heartfelt genuine tears. I was told I was “born again” But after a while I experienced feelings of the frustration and guilt of not being able to live for God. I could not seem to grow in God like the Bible talked about and continued to revert back to a sinful lifestyle. I felt utterly defeated Bc I could not stay faithful to God, His Word or His commandments. 3 years later I walked into an Apostolic Church in Appleton/Menasha WI and the truth of salvation was revealed: The Gospel is the Death, Burial and Resurrection of Jesus Christ: (I Corinthians 15: 1-4). I learned to rightly divide the word of truth: The 4 Gospels: Matthew, Mark, Luke and John witness Jesus’ earthly ministry: He healed the sick, raised the dead, cast out demons and performed many miracles. In John 3, Nicodemus came to Jesus. They talked ABOUT being born again (JOHN 3:3-5 Except a man be born of the water and of the Spirit he cannot enter the kingdom of heaven) but no one was ACTUALLY born again in the 4 gospels. Before Calvary they were still under the law but after Calvary we are under grace (Church Age) so it was not possible to be born again bc Jesus had not yet been glorified (John 7:37-39). This is why the thief on the cross was able to be in paradise...he was still under the dispensation of the law. It isn’t until the day of Pentecost, in Acts you witness people actually BEING born of the water by being baptized by immersion ONLY in the name of Jesus and BEING filled with the Holy Ghost with the evidence of speaking in tongues. To find out HOW to be born again, go to the Book of Acts: Acts2:1-4,2:38,3:19,8:12-18,8:35-39,10:43-4816:30-34,18:8,19:2-6 John 3:8 Speaks of how you cannot SEE the wind but you know that it is moving because you SEE the branches move and you HEAR the wind through the leaves. And so is every man that is born of the Spirit. You cannot SEE the Spirit of God (John 4:24) but when it enters a man (Acts 2:33, 4:20): you SEE tongue move and you HEAR the words of them speaking as the Spirit gives the utterance. - [ ] Whenever God gave a promise he always gave the SIGN to that promise. In the OT he made a covenant/promise with Noah: He would never flood the earth with water again and the SIGN to that promise was the rainbow. Then God made a covenant/promise with Abraham that he would be the father of many nations and the SIGN of that promise was circumcision. In the NT God’s covenant/ promise to us is the Holy Ghost. The SIGN to that promise is tongues. James 3 says the tongue is the most unruly member of the body. So when God has control of our tongue we have truly submitted. - [ ] God is a Consuming Fire...Deuteronomy 4:24,9:3,9:12 Hebrews 12:29 - [ ] Matt 3:11-12, Luke 3:16-18, Acts 2:5...He will baptize you with the Holy Ghost and with Fire. Acts 2:3...Tongues like as of Fire. Acts 2:1-4, Acts 10:44-46, Acts 19:2-6...Holy Ghost & Tongues. Acts 15:7-9, Acts 10:45-46...Holy Ghost, Fire Purifies, Gentiles Spoke in Tongues. - [ ] Matthew 13:42,18:8, Mark 9:47-48, Rev 20:10, 10:14-15, 21:8...Lake of Fire - [ ] CONTROLLED BURNS - When a trench is dug around an unquenchable fire to consume the fuel source. FIREFIGHTERS do this to FIGHT FIRE WITH FIRE. Only way we can fight the fires of hell is to be filled with the CONSUMING FIRE HIMSELF...The Spirit of a Holy God. The Epistles: Romans - Jude are written to the churches that experienced the Acts 2:38 salvation. If you haven’t, these letters are not yet for you bc you cannot be expected to live a holy life without a holy God living inside you. If you want to find out HOW to be born again you do not go to the Epistles, only to Acts. In Acts and Epistles it does say to: “Believe on the Lord” and you will be saved. Believe what? What have the disciples been preaching this whole time? The Gospel. What is the Gospel? I Corin 15:1-4 1. Death, 2. Burial 3. Resurrection. (II Thessalonians 1:8) How do we OBEY (action word) the Gospel? 1. Repent (death to self), 2. Batism in Jesus name (Burial) 3. Holy Ghost (Resurrection) with the evidence of speaking in tongues in Acts 2:38-39 and John 3:3-8. The 1. Death 2. Burial 3. Resurrection=1. Repentance 2. Baptism 3. Holy Ghost theme is thread throughout the entire Bible: In Exodus when the children of Israel were in Egyptian bondage God told Moses to tell them to put the blood on the door post of the HOUSE 🏡 THREE (3) times and then the death Angel would pass over them and the firstborn in their house would not (physically) die. It’s the same for us: When we 1. Repent 2. Get Baptized 3. Receive Holy Ghost. The blood🩸of Jesus is applied to us each time (if we OBEY we will not die spiritually) bc in Ephesians 2:22, I Corinthians 3:16 and Romans 8:9-11 it says that we are the HOUSE 🏠 of God. In Leviticus when the Priest went into the TABERNACLE/TEMPLE to perform the ritual for the children of Israel to have their sins rolled ahead one year up till Calvary. The PRIEST applied blood on his body 3 times and he also applied blood on the 3 pieces of the furniture in the TEMPLE. The Bible says in first Peter 2:5-9 that we are royal PRIESThood . (I Corinthians 6:19) The Bible also says that our bodies are TEMPLES of the Holy Ghost. So it is the same for us: when we 1. Repent 2. Are baptized 3. Get Holy Ghost. The blood of Jesus is applied to us. Obedience is an action word. We can “believe” the light will turn on but unless we turn light switch on the light won’t go on. (Ephesians 2:8-9, Acts 15: 7-11) We are saved by grace and faith. We are so often accused of works for salvation. When we are commanded to be baptized (Matt 28:19, Acts 8:48,10:45) we are simply being obedient to the Gospel (2Thes1:8,Romans10:16,Acts6:7,Gal5:7) by having the faith to know that the gospel saves us. I was almost 20 years old when I went down into the waters of baptism in Jesus name for the remission of my sin. When I came up out of the water I could hardly breathe bc Gods presence was so intense and the unbearable weight I felt lifted off me was immense! (At this moment, in a natural birth, the water, blood and baby is there but until the you HEAR the baby CRY after taking in its first BREATH it could be still born. So you wait for the CRY to know baby is alive-So is everyone that it’s born of the Spirit). I began to speak in other tongues and could not speak English! It was the most amazing, most powerful, most enlightening and cleansing experience ever. It wasn’t till THAT MOMENT I was truly born of water and of the Spirit. Thus, BORN AGAIN! I was finally filled with the power to help me live a victorious life. Romans 13:14, Galatians 3:27-When you are baptized you are “covered” you have “put on” Christ (Gen 3:21-God “clothed” or “put on” the coats of skins of a bloody animal to “cover” the sin of Adam and Eve), (Romans 6:4) you are buried with Him in baptism, (Acts 2:33, 3:19) you have your sin remitted, (Acts 4:12) you take on His name and become the Bride of Christ in baptism. The only way anyone was ever baptized was in the name of Jesus! Matthew 28:18-19. Jesus said: ALL POWER IS GIVEN UNTO ME IN HEAVEN AND IN EARTH. (SO ALL POWER OF HEAVEN AND EARTH MUST BE IN THE NAME OF JESUS!) John 5:43-The name of the Father is Jesus, Matthew 1:21-The name of the Son is Jesus, John 14:26-The name of the Holy Ghost is Jesus. Jesus was crucified for WHO HE WAS not for what he did. When we truly understand WHO Jesus is we will understand the importance of being baptized in Jesus name. Romans 8:9-16. You are then adopted and become the sons and daughters of God. The Holy Ghost is just a portion of our inheritance. If we do not have His Spirit dwelling in us we are none of His. Those years between the ages of 17-20 I was living on a repentance experience...leaving Jesus hanging there on the cross, so to speak. (Matthew 28:19, Mark 16:16, Acts 2:14-41, Acts 8:37-38, Acts 10:47-48) tells me I was not obeying the command to be buried with him in the waters of baptism and I had not received the Holy Ghost so thus was not resurrected to walk in newness of life. Therefore, could not live a victorious Christian life. We can go out into the highways and by-ways to share our testimony and compel the lost to come in to the church, cell groups, house meetings. The new converts need a place to fellowship with saints of like precious faith and to grow in Christ. They need a place of refuge Bc when they get saved the enemy is going to attack hard. They need a Pastor, who not only shepherds and gently guides their souls but is accountable to preach the truth as well. As soon we receive the Holy Ghost we can pray for whoever, whenever and wherever the Spirit leads us: For them to be healed, delivered or pray through to the Holy Ghost. If there is water, what does hinder them to be baptized? YOU can baptize them in Jesus name. Just be sure they have repented and it’s understood what takes place in baptism. I have witnessed healings, participated in baptisms and helped pray many thru to Holy Ghost in my Church as well as a few on the streets and even in my living room. I am not in a religion but in a relationship with my Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.

The blood of Jesus is applied to us. Obedience is an action word. We can “believe” the light will turn on but unless we turn light switch on the light won’t go on. (Ephesians 2:8-9, Acts 15: 7-11) We are saved by grace and faith. We are so often accused of works for salvation. When we are commanded to be baptized (Matt 28:19, Acts 8:48,10:45) we are simply being obedient to the Gospel (2Thes1:8,Romans10:16,Acts6:7,Gal5:7) by having the faith to know that the gospel saves us. I was almost 20 years old when I went down into the waters of baptism in Jesus name for the remission of my sin. When I came up out of the water I could hardly breathe bc Gods presence was so intense and the unbearable weight I felt lifted off me was immense! (At this moment, in a natural birth, the water, blood and baby is there but until the you HEAR the baby CRY after taking in its first BREATH it could be still born. So you wait for the CRY to know baby is alive-So is everyone that it’s born of the Spirit). I began to speak in other tongues and could not speak English! It was the most amazing, most powerful, most enlightening and cleansing experience ever. It wasn’t till THAT MOMENT I was truly born of water and of the Spirit. Thus, BORN AGAIN! I was finally filled with the power to help me live a victorious life. Romans 13:14, Galatians 3:27-When you are baptized you are “covered” you have “put on” Christ (Gen 3:21-God “clothed” or “put on” the coats of skins of a bloody animal to “cover” the sin of Adam and Eve), (Romans 6:4) you are buried with Him in baptism, (Acts 2:33, 3:19) you have your sin remitted, (Acts 4:12) you take on His name and become the Bride of Christ in baptism. The only way anyone was ever baptized was in the name of Jesus! Matthew 28:18-19. Jesus said: ALL POWER IS GIVEN UNTO ME IN HEAVEN AND IN EARTH. (SO ALL POWER OF HEAVEN AND EARTH MUST BE IN THE NAME OF JESUS!) John 5:43-The name of the Father is Jesus, Matthew 1:21-The name of the Son is Jesus, John 14:26-The name of the Holy Ghost is Jesus. Jesus was crucified for WHO HE WAS not for what he did. When we truly understand WHO Jesus is we will understand the importance of being baptized in Jesus name. Romans 8:9-16. You are then adopted and become the sons and daughters of God. The Holy Ghost is just a portion of our inheritance. If we do not have His Spirit dwelling in us we are none of His. Those years between the ages of 17-20 I was living on a repentance experience...leaving Jesus hanging there on the cross, so to speak. (Matthew 28:19, Mark 16:16, Acts 2:14-41, Acts 8:37-38, Acts 10:47-48) tells me I was not obeying the command to be buried with him in the waters of baptism and I had not received the Holy Ghost so thus was not resurrected to walk in newness of life. Therefore, could not live a victorious Christian life. We can go out into the highways and by-ways to share our testimony and compel the lost to come in to the church, cell groups, house meetings. The new converts need a place to fellowship with saints of like precious faith and to grow in Christ. They need a place of refuge Bc when they get saved the enemy is going to attack hard. They need a Pastor, who not only shepherds and gently guides their souls but is accountable to preach the truth as well. As soon we receive the Holy Ghost we can pray for whoever, whenever and wherever the Spirit leads us: For them to be healed, delivered or pray through to the Holy Ghost. If there is water, what does hinder them to be baptized? YOU can baptize them in Jesus name. Just be sure they have repented and it’s understood what takes place in baptism. I have witnessed healings, participated in baptisms and helped pray many thru to Holy Ghost in my Church as well as a few on the streets and even in my living room. I am not in a religion but in a relationship with my Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.

@@SadelovesJesus Michele Allen’s Testimony: I was born and raised in New Holstein, WI in a very good home. But deep inside of me there was an aching and hunger for more of God. When I was 17 I was shown in the Bible that “Ye must be born again”. I was told to say a “sinners prayer” I sincerely repented and cried rivers of heartfelt genuine tears. I was told I was “born again” But after a while I experienced feelings of the frustration and guilt of not being able to live for God. I could not seem to grow in God like the Bible talked about and continued to revert back to a sinful lifestyle. I felt utterly defeated Bc I could not stay faithful to God, His Word or His commandments. 3 years later I walked into an Apostolic Church in Appleton/Menasha WI and the truth of salvation was revealed: The Gospel is the Death, Burial and Resurrection of Jesus Christ: (I Corinthians 15: 1-4). I learned to rightly divide the word of truth: The 4 Gospels: Matthew, Mark, Luke and John witness Jesus’ earthly ministry: He healed the sick, raised the dead, cast out demons and performed many miracles. In John 3, Nicodemus came to Jesus. They talked ABOUT being born again (JOHN 3:3-5 Except a man be born of the water and of the Spirit he cannot enter the kingdom of heaven) but no one was ACTUALLY born again in the 4 gospels. Before Calvary they were still under the law but after Calvary we are under grace (Church Age) so it was not possible to be born again bc Jesus had not yet been glorified (John 7:37-39). This is why the thief on the cross was able to be in paradise...he was still under the dispensation of the law. It isn’t until the day of Pentecost, in Acts you witness people actually BEING born of the water by being baptized by immersion ONLY in the name of Jesus and BEING filled with the Holy Ghost with the evidence of speaking in tongues. To find out HOW to be born again, go to the Book of Acts: Acts2:1-4,2:38,3:19,8:12-18,8:35-39,10:43-4816:30-34,18:8,19:2-6 John 3:8 Speaks of how you cannot SEE the wind but you know that it is moving because you SEE the branches move and you HEAR the wind through the leaves. And so is every man that is born of the Spirit. You cannot SEE the Spirit of God (John 4:24) but when it enters a man (Acts 2:33, 4:20): you SEE tongue move and you HEAR the words of them speaking as the Spirit gives the utterance. - [ ] Whenever God gave a promise he always gave the SIGN to that promise. In the OT he made a covenant/promise with Noah: He would never flood the earth with water again and the SIGN to that promise was the rainbow. Then God made a covenant/promise with Abraham that he would be the father of many nations and the SIGN of that promise was circumcision. In the NT God’s covenant/ promise to us is the Holy Ghost. The SIGN to that promise is tongues. James 3 says the tongue is the most unruly member of the body. So when God has control of our tongue we have truly submitted. - [ ] God is a Consuming Fire...Deuteronomy 4:24,9:3,9:12 Hebrews 12:29 - [ ] Matt 3:11-12, Luke 3:16-18, Acts 2:5...He will baptize you with the Holy Ghost and with Fire. Acts 2:3...Tongues like as of Fire. Acts 2:1-4, Acts 10:44-46, Acts 19:2-6...Holy Ghost & Tongues. Acts 15:7-9, Acts 10:45-46...Holy Ghost, Fire Purifies, Gentiles Spoke in Tongues. - [ ] Matthew 13:42,18:8, Mark 9:47-48, Rev 20:10, 10:14-15, 21:8...Lake of Fire - [ ] CONTROLLED BURNS - When a trench is dug around an unquenchable fire to consume the fuel source. FIREFIGHTERS do this to FIGHT FIRE WITH FIRE. Only way we can fight the fires of hell is to be filled with the CONSUMING FIRE HIMSELF...The Spirit of a Holy God. The Epistles: Romans - Jude are written to the churches that experienced the Acts 2:38 salvation. If you haven’t, these letters are not yet for you bc you cannot be expected to live a holy life without a holy God living inside you. If you want to find out HOW to be born again you do not go to the Epistles, only to Acts. In Acts and Epistles it does say to: “Believe on the Lord” and you will be saved. Believe what? What have the disciples been preaching this whole time? The Gospel. What is the Gospel? I Corin 15:1-4 1. Death, 2. Burial 3. Resurrection. (II Thessalonians 1:8) How do we OBEY (action word) the Gospel? 1. Repent (death to self), 2. Batism in Jesus name (Burial) 3. Holy Ghost (Resurrection) with the evidence of speaking in tongues in Acts 2:38-39 and John 3:3-8. The 1. Death 2. Burial 3. Resurrection=1. Repentance 2. Baptism 3. Holy Ghost theme is thread throughout the entire Bible: In Exodus when the children of Israel were in Egyptian bondage God told Moses to tell them to put the blood on the door post of the HOUSE 🏡 THREE (3) times and then the death Angel would pass over them and the firstborn in their house would not (physically) die. It’s the same for us: When we 1. Repent 2. Get Baptized 3. Receive Holy Ghost. The blood🩸of Jesus is applied to us each time (if we OBEY we will not die spiritually) bc in Ephesians 2:22, I Corinthians 3:16 and Romans 8:9-11 it says that we are the HOUSE 🏠 of God. In Leviticus when the Priest went into the TABERNACLE/TEMPLE to perform the ritual for the children of Israel to have their sins rolled ahead one year up till Calvary. The PRIEST applied blood on his body 3 times and he also applied blood on the 3 pieces of the furniture in the TEMPLE. The Bible says in first Peter 2:5-9 that we are royal PRIESThood .

I was baptized right as I turned 12, following my first church camp I went to. I think I did it cause it felt cool and the leaders made it seem that way ( which it totally is!) but didn’t understand the seriousness of it. Being 23 now, I would love to get baptized again being my choice entirely as I am now living and wanting to live a life following Jesus. Thoughts on a second baptism?

There is no need for water baptism today if you have believed and trust the gospel. That Jesus died shedding His blood, was buried and rose, for the forgiveness of your sins. This is what saves us. I Cor 15:1-4. Paul said: 1Cor 1:17 For Christ sent me not to baptize, but to preach the gospel: not with wisdom of words, lest the cross of Christ should be made of none effect. The gospel that saves us today does not require water baptism at all, for any reason or by any method. There is only one baptism for us in the body of Christ and the Spirit is the one who does the baptizing , NOT a man. Eph 4:4 There is one body, and one Spirit, even as ye are called in one hope of your calling; Eph 4:5 One Lord, one faith, one baptism, 1Cor 12:13 For by one Spirit are we all baptized into one body, whether we be Jews or Gentiles, whether we be bond or free; and have been all made to drink into one Spirit.

As an adult i have been leaning on christ more and more often, there might be times when i fall off, but i always come back to him. Im even starting to was to learn more about jesus, the bible, and who he is as my savior! I think that now as an adult i would like to get baptized again, and really walk with jesus.

I was 11 1/2, when I got baptized. I don’t remember going up to my parents, saying I want be baptized. It was my parents decisions, for me get baptized. We talk to the Pastor about it. I didn’t fully understand it. My parents, should let me choose, not forcing me to be baptized. It was at someone’s backyard, with a pool. Then I was wondering, if my sins was in that pool, forever? Cause how can my sins be washed away, if we used someone’s pool?

NO! Baptism isn't about a "personal decision," because the Scripture never once attributes Baptism to a "personal decision." Baptism, like Circumcision of old, is God's mark on the person, setting him apart into His eternal kingdom. It's no different than a father and a mother giving a newborn a name, YEARS before the newborn is old enough to make a "personal decision" about his own name. It's identity and citizenship in God's kingdom. This is not to say that a person who is baptized won't apostate or disregard his baptism, but with daily repentance and faith, his baptism as an infant is as sure and God-gifted as was circumcision in the days of Abraham.

Im quite conflicted, can someone help? I was baptised as a baby but it was done as a tradition nothing more. I was raised completely secularband was an atheist until age 28. I love Jesus with all my heart but nothing seems to answer this specific predicament: If you were a baby with no understanding of Sin or repentance, and were baptised but raised completely secular, does this warrant a baptism now im an actual christian? I cant find an answer anywhere and im quite concerned as it don't want to be unbaptised if my original ceremony didnt count. But if it did, i dont want to be disrespectful to Christ by unwittingly trying works based salvation. Can someone please clarify?

I have the same question, baptised as a preschooler, not understanding. When I left the church they sent me a letter that my baptism is no longer valid, I'm paraphrasing, but now I definitely want to make sure I am baptised. But I read something else that's sad you're not supposed to get baptized second time. I am confused. ❤

Agree children should not be baptised too young as they are influenced and under parents control. When they fully understand and walk with Jesus that they choose the right path into obsidian to God. Then it's time to BAPTISM. JESUS SAID LET THE CHILDREN'S COME TO ME FOR THEM IS THE KINGDOM OF GOD. so you see they don't need it.

There is only one Baptism necessary for the Body of Christ in this dispensation according to the words Jesus gave us from Paul: Eph 4:5 One Lord, one faith, one baptism, That is by the Spirit into one body. No water in this one baptism. 1Cor 12:13 For by one Spirit are we all baptized into one body, whether we be Jews or Gentiles, whether we be bond or free; and have been all made to drink into one Spirit. This happens once we believe Jesus died on the cross shedding His blood, was buried, rose for the forgiveness of our sins. By trusting this alone by faith we are saved and put into the body of Christ by the Spirit. This is the only baptism needed and takes place in this time we live. NO water necessary. The words and the math are very simple. One means "one". Put away your traditions and believe the bible.

I know I was baptized as a baby like everyone in my moms family plus my brother and sister. She had my sister and I taking ccd one year for first communion when I was about 8. And then I was 10 when we got to start going to ccd again. Wasn't until I was in middle school when I found out about Yeshua and certain info from the Bible. Got confirmed, went to Catholic church until several months ago after I stopped going. But it wasn't until last month I fully found out and understood that why Yeshua was crucified. I'm the only one in the whole family, including relatives, who has converted and is fully into doing what Yeshua and Yahweh wants us to do. This channel and a couple other channels is what's helping me in this besides the Bible, Yeshua, and Yahweh.

Mabel: Michele Allen’s Testimony: I was born and raised in New Holstein, WI in a very good home. But deep inside of me there was an aching and hunger for more of God. When I was 17 I was shown in the Bible that “Ye must be born again”. I was told to say a “sinners prayer” I sincerely repented and cried rivers of heartfelt genuine tears. I was told I was “born again” But after a while I experienced feelings of the frustration and guilt of not being able to live for God. I could not seem to grow in God like the Bible talked about and continued to revert back to a sinful lifestyle. I felt utterly defeated Bc I could not stay faithful to God, His Word or His commandments. 3 years later I walked into an Apostolic Church in Appleton/Menasha WI and the truth of salvation was revealed: The Gospel is the Death, Burial and Resurrection of Jesus Christ: (I Corinthians 15: 1-4). I learned to rightly divide the word of truth: The 4 Gospels: Matthew, Mark, Luke and John witness Jesus’ earthly ministry: He healed the sick, raised the dead, cast out demons and performed many miracles. In John 3, Nicodemus came to Jesus. They talked ABOUT being born again (JOHN 3:3-5 Except a man be born of the water and of the Spirit he cannot enter the kingdom of heaven) but no one was ACTUALLY born again in the 4 gospels. Before Calvary they were still under the law but after Calvary we are under grace (Church Age) so it was not possible to be born again bc Jesus had not yet been glorified (John 7:37-39). This is why the thief on the cross was able to be in paradise...he was still under the dispensation of the law. It isn’t until the day of Pentecost, in Acts you witness people actually BEING born of the water by being baptized by immersion ONLY in the name of Jesus and BEING filled with the Holy Ghost with the evidence of speaking in tongues. To find out HOW to be born again, go to the Book of Acts: Acts2:1-4,2:38,3:19,8:12-18,8:35-39,10:43-4816:30-34,18:8,19:2-6 John 3:8 Speaks of how you cannot SEE the wind but you know that it is moving because you SEE the branches move and you HEAR the wind through the leaves. And so is every man that is born of the Spirit. You cannot SEE the Spirit of God (John 4:24) but when it enters a man (Acts 2:33, 4:20): you SEE tongue move and you HEAR the words of them speaking as the Spirit gives the utterance. - [ ] Whenever God gave a promise he always gave the SIGN to that promise. In the OT he made a covenant/promise with Noah: He would never flood the earth with water again and the SIGN to that promise was the rainbow. Then God made a covenant/promise with Abraham that he would be the father of many nations and the SIGN of that promise was circumcision. In the NT God’s covenant/ promise to us is the Holy Ghost. The SIGN to that promise is tongues. James 3 says the tongue is the most unruly member of the body. So when God has control of our tongue we have truly submitted. - [ ] God is a Consuming Fire...Deuteronomy 4:24,9:3,9:12 Hebrews 12:29 - [ ] Matt 3:11-12, Luke 3:16-18, Acts 2:5...He will baptize you with the Holy Ghost and with Fire. Acts 2:3...Tongues like as of Fire. Acts 2:1-4, Acts 10:44-46, Acts 19:2-6...Holy Ghost & Tongues. Acts 15:7-9, Acts 10:45-46...Holy Ghost, Fire Purifies, Gentiles Spoke in Tongues. - [ ] Matthew 13:42,18:8, Mark 9:47-48, Rev 20:10, 10:14-15, 21:8...Lake of Fire - [ ] CONTROLLED BURNS - When a trench is dug around an unquenchable fire to consume the fuel source. FIREFIGHTERS do this to FIGHT FIRE WITH FIRE. Only way we can fight the fires of hell is to be filled with the CONSUMING FIRE HIMSELF...The Spirit of a Holy God. The Epistles: Romans - Jude are written to the churches that experienced the Acts 2:38 salvation. If you haven’t, these letters are not yet for you bc you cannot be expected to live a holy life without a holy God living inside you. If you want to find out HOW to be born again you do not go to the Epistles, only to Acts. In Acts and Epistles it does say to: “Believe on the Lord” and you will be saved. Believe what? What have the disciples been preaching this whole time? The Gospel. What is the Gospel? I Corin 15:1-4 1. Death, 2. Burial 3. Resurrection. (II Thessalonians 1:8) How do we OBEY (action word) the Gospel? 1. Repent (death to self), 2. Batism in Jesus name (Burial) 3. Holy Ghost (Resurrection) with the evidence of speaking in tongues in Acts 2:38-39 and John 3:3-8. The 1. Death 2. Burial 3. Resurrection=1. Repentance 2. Baptism 3. Holy Ghost theme is thread throughout the entire Bible: In Exodus when the children of Israel were in Egyptian bondage God told Moses to tell them to put the blood on the door post of the HOUSE 🏡 THREE (3) times and then the death Angel would pass over them and the firstborn in their house would not (physically) die. It’s the same for us: When we 1. Repent 2. Get Baptized 3. Receive Holy Ghost. The blood🩸of Jesus is applied to us each time (if we OBEY we will not die spiritually) bc in Ephesians 2:22, I Corinthians 3:16 and Romans 8:9-11 it says that we are the HOUSE 🏠 of God. In Leviticus when the Priest went into the TABERNACLE/TEMPLE to perform the ritual for the children of Israel to have their sins rolled ahead one year up till Calvary. The PRIEST applied blood on his body 3 times and he also applied blood on the 3 pieces of the furniture in the TEMPLE. The Bible says in first Peter 2:5-9 that we are royal PRIESThood . (I Corinthians 6:19) The Bible also says that our bodies are TEMPLES of the Holy Ghost. So it is the same for us: when we 1. Repent 2. Are baptized 3. Get Holy Ghost. The blood of Jesus is applied to us. Obedience is an action word. We can “believe” the light will turn on but unless we turn light switch on the light won’t go on. (Ephesians 2:8-9, Acts 15: 7-11) We are saved by grace and faith. We are so often accused of works for salvation. When we are commanded to be baptized (Matt 28:19, Acts 8:48,10:45) we are simply being obedient to the Gospel (2Thes1:8,Romans10:16,Acts6:7,Gal5:7) by having the faith to know that the gospel saves us. I was almost 20 years old when I went down into the waters of baptism in Jesus name for the remission of my sin. When I came up out of the water I could hardly breathe bc Gods presence was so intense and the unbearable weight I felt lifted off me was immense! (At this moment, in a natural birth, the water, blood and baby is there but until the you HEAR the baby CRY after taking in its first BREATH it could be still born. So you wait for the CRY to know baby is alive-So is everyone that it’s born of the Spirit). I began to speak in other tongues and could not speak English! It was the most amazing, most powerful, most enlightening and cleansing experience ever. It wasn’t till THAT MOMENT I was truly born of water and of the Spirit. Thus, BORN AGAIN! I was finally filled with the power to help me live a victorious life. Romans 13:14, Galatians 3:27-When you are baptized you are “covered” you have “put on” Christ (Gen 3:21-God “clothed” or “put on” the coats of skins of a bloody animal to “cover” the sin of Adam and Eve), (Romans 6:4) you are buried with Him in baptism, (Acts 2:33, 3:19) you have your sin remitted, (Acts 4:12) you take on His name and become the Bride of Christ in baptism. The only way anyone was ever baptized was in the name of Jesus! Matthew 28:18-19. Jesus said: ALL POWER IS GIVEN UNTO ME IN HEAVEN AND IN EARTH. (SO ALL POWER OF HEAVEN AND EARTH MUST BE IN THE NAME OF JESUS!) John 5:43-The name of the Father is Jesus, Matthew 1:21-The name of the Son is Jesus, John 14:26-The name of the Holy Ghost is Jesus. Jesus was crucified for WHO HE WAS not for what he did. When we truly understand WHO Jesus is we will understand the importance of being baptized in Jesus name. Romans 8:9-16. You are then adopted and become the sons and daughters of God. The Holy Ghost is just a portion of our inheritance. If we do not have His Spirit dwelling in us we are none of His. Those years between the ages of 17-20 I was living on a repentance experience...leaving Jesus hanging there on the cross, so to speak. (Matthew 28:19, Mark 16:16, Acts 2:14-41, Acts 8:37-38, Acts 10:47-48) tells me I was not obeying the command to be buried with him in the waters of baptism and I had not received the Holy Ghost so thus was not resurrected to walk in newness of life. Therefore, could not live a victorious Christian life. We can go out into the highways and by-ways to share our testimony and compel the lost to come in to the church, cell groups, house meetings. The new converts need a place to fellowship with saints of like precious faith and to grow in Christ. They need a place of refuge Bc when they get saved the enemy is going to attack hard. They need a Pastor, who not only shepherds and gently guides their souls but is accountable to preach the truth as well. As soon we receive the Holy Ghost we can pray for whoever, whenever and wherever the Spirit leads us: For them to be healed, delivered or pray through to the Holy Ghost. If there is water, what does hinder them to be baptized? YOU can baptize them in Jesus name. Just be sure they have repented and it’s understood what takes place in baptism. I have witnessed healings, participated in baptisms and helped pray many thru to Holy Ghost in my Church as well as a few on the streets and even in my living room. I am not in a religion but in a relationship with my Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.

Many seem to forget that even the Lord Christ himself was baptized in WATER in the River Jordon to..... as the Lord stated "To fulfill ALL RIGHTEOUSNESS" Thus even he was baptized in ACTUAL WATER. And he is our Master and the faithful are to follow his example. Note also: "23 And John also was baptizing in Enon near to Salim, *because there was MUCH WATER* there: and they came, and were baptized." John 3:22-23 (ASV) Note also: When the Eunuch was baptized by Phillip AFTER belief in Christ he used WATER to baptize him. "36 And as they went on their way, they came unto a certain water: and the eunuch said, See, here is *WATER;* what doth hinder me to be baptized? 37 And Philip said, If thou believest with all thine heart, thou mayest. And he answered and said, I believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God. 38 And he commanded the chariot to stand still: and they **went down BOTH INTO THE WATER**, both Philip and the eunuch; and he baptized him. 39 And when they were come **up out of the WATER**. Acts 8:35-39 (KJV) Thus all these, including the Lord Christ was baptized in WATER. So please think about that. And so if any have not yet been baptized in WATER: "16 And now why tarriest thou? arise, and be baptized, and *WASH* AWAY thy sins, calling on the name of the Lord." Acts 22:16 (KJV) Remember...To WASH anything means using WATER.....{;o;}

I was baptized as a child and it wasn't my decision. My mom decided for me. At the time I didn't understand what baptism is and I didn't even know why I was there. Since then I moved away from God and lived a life of homosexuality. I recently gave my life to Jesus and the pastor explained to me what baptism means and he explained why small kids should not be baptized. I just got baptized an hour ago because I decided to.

This is why the thief on the cross was able to be in paradise...he was still under the dispensation of the law. It isn’t until the day of Pentecost, in Acts you witness people actually BEING born of the water by being baptized by immersion ONLY in the name of Jesus and BEING filled with the Holy Ghost with the evidence of speaking in tongues. To find out HOW to be born again, go to the Book of Acts: Acts2:1-4,2:38,3:19,8:12-18,8:35-39,10:43-4816:30-34,18:8,19:2-6 John 3:8 Speaks of how you cannot SEE the wind but you know that it is moving because you SEE the branches move and you HEAR the wind through the leaves. And so is every man that is born of the Spirit. You cannot SEE the Spirit of God (John 4:24) but when it enters a man (Acts 2:33, 4:20): you SEE tongue move and you HEAR the words of them speaking as the Spirit gives the utterance. - [ ] Whenever God gave a promise he always gave the SIGN to that promise. In the OT he made a covenant/promise with Noah: He would never flood the earth with water again and the SIGN to that promise was the rainbow. Then God made a covenant/promise with Abraham that he would be the father of many nations and the SIGN of that promise was circumcision. In the NT God’s covenant/ promise to us is the Holy Ghost. The SIGN to that promise is tongues. James 3 says the tongue is the most unruly member of the body. So when God has control of our tongue we have truly submitted. - [ ] God is a Consuming Fire...Deuteronomy 4:24,9:3,9:12 Hebrews 12:29 - [ ] Matt 3:11-12, Luke 3:16-18, Acts 2:5...He will baptize you with the Holy Ghost and with Fire. Acts 2:3...Tongues like as of Fire. Acts 2:1-4, Acts 10:44-46, Acts 19:2-6...Holy Ghost & Tongues. Acts 15:7-9, Acts 10:45-46...Holy Ghost, Fire Purifies, Gentiles Spoke in Tongues. - [ ] Matthew 13:42,18:8, Mark 9:47-48, Rev 20:10, 10:14-15, 21:8...Lake of Fire - [ ] CONTROLLED BURNS - When a trench is dug around an unquenchable fire to consume the fuel source. FIREFIGHTERS do this to FIGHT FIRE WITH FIRE. Only way we can fight the fires of hell is to be filled with the CONSUMING FIRE HIMSELF...The Spirit of a Holy God. The Epistles: Romans - Jude are written to the churches that experienced the Acts 2:38 salvation. If you haven’t, these letters are not yet for you bc you cannot be expected to live a holy life without a holy God living inside you. If you want to find out HOW to be born again you do not go to the Epistles, only to Acts. In Acts and Epistles it does say to: “Believe on the Lord” and you will be saved. Believe what? What have the disciples been preaching this whole time? The Gospel. What is the Gospel? I Corin 15:1-4 1. Death, 2. Burial 3. Resurrection. (II Thessalonians 1:8) How do we OBEY (action word) the Gospel? 1. Repent (death to self), 2. Batism in Jesus name (Burial) 3. Holy Ghost (Resurrection) with the evidence of speaking in tongues in Acts 2:38-39 and John 3:3-8. The 1. Death 2. Burial 3. Resurrection=1. Repentance 2. Baptism 3. Holy Ghost theme is thread throughout the entire Bible: In Exodus when the children of Israel were in Egyptian bondage God told Moses to tell them to put the blood on the door post of the HOUSE 🏡 THREE (3) times and then the death Angel would pass over them and the firstborn in their house would not (physically) die. It’s the same for us: When we 1. Repent 2. Get Baptized 3. Receive Holy Ghost. The blood🩸of Jesus is applied to us each time (if we OBEY we will not die spiritually) bc in Ephesians 2:22, I Corinthians 3:16 and Romans 8:9-11 it says that we are the HOUSE 🏠 of God. In Leviticus when the Priest went into the TABERNACLE/TEMPLE to perform the ritual for the children of Israel to have their sins rolled ahead one year up till Calvary. The PRIEST applied blood on his body 3 times and he also applied blood on the 3 pieces of the furniture in the TEMPLE. The Bible says in first Peter 2:5-9 that we are royal PRIESThood . (I Corinthians 6:19) The Bible also says that our bodies are TEMPLES of the Holy Ghost. So it is the same for us: when we 1. Repent 2. Are baptized 3. Get Holy Ghost. The blood of Jesus is applied to us. Obedience is an action word. We can “believe” the light will turn on but unless we turn light switch on the light won’t go on. (Ephesians 2:8-9, Acts 15: 7-11) We are saved by grace and faith. We are so often accused of works for salvation. When we are commanded to be baptized (Matt 28:19, Acts 8:48,10:45) we are simply being obedient to the Gospel (2Thes1:8,Romans10:16,Acts6:7,Gal5:7) by having the faith to know that the gospel saves us. I was almost 20 years old when I went down into the waters of baptism in Jesus name for the remission of my sin. When I came up out of the water I could hardly breathe bc Gods presence was so intense and the unbearable weight I felt lifted off me was immense! (At this moment, in a natural birth, the water, blood and baby is there but until the you HEAR the baby CRY after taking in its first BREATH it could be still born. So you wait for the CRY to know baby is alive-So is everyone that it’s born of the Spirit). I began to speak in other tongues and could not speak English! It was the most amazing, most powerful, most enlightening and cleansing experience ever. It wasn’t till THAT MOMENT I was truly born of water and of the Spirit. Thus, BORN AGAIN! I was finally filled with the power to help me live a victorious life. Romans 13:14, Galatians 3:27-When you are baptized you are “covered” you have “put on” Christ (Gen 3:21-God “clothed” or “put on” the coats of skins of a bloody animal to “cover” the sin of Adam and Eve), (Romans 6:4) you are buried with Him in baptism, (Acts 2:33, 3:19) you have your sin remitted, (Acts 4:12) you take on His name and become the Bride of Christ in baptism. The only way anyone was ever baptized was in the name of Jesus! Matthew 28:18-19. Jesus said: ALL POWER IS GIVEN UNTO ME IN HEAVEN AND IN EARTH. (SO ALL POWER OF HEAVEN AND EARTH MUST BE IN THE NAME OF JESUS!) John 5:43-The name of the Father is Jesus, Matthew 1:21-The name of the Son is Jesus, John 14:26-The name of the Holy Ghost is Jesus. Jesus was crucified for WHO HE WAS not for what he did. When we truly understand WHO Jesus is we will understand the importance of being baptized in Jesus name. Romans 8:9-16. You are then adopted and become the sons and daughters of God. The Holy Ghost is just a portion of our inheritance. If we do not have His Spirit dwelling in us we are none of His. Those years between the ages of 17-20 I was living on a repentance experience...leaving Jesus hanging there on the cross, so to speak. (Matthew 28:19, Mark 16:16, Acts 2:14-41, Acts 8:37-38, Acts 10:47-48) tells me I was not obeying the command to be buried with him in the waters of baptism and I had not received the Holy Ghost so thus was not resurrected to walk in newness of life. Therefore, could not live a victorious Christian life. We can go out into the highways and by-ways to share our testimony and compel the lost to come in to the church, cell groups, house meetings. The new converts need a place to fellowship with saints of like precious faith and to grow in Christ. They need a place of refuge Bc when they get saved the enemy is going to attack hard. They need a Pastor, who not only shepherds and gently guides their souls but is accountable to preach the truth as well. As soon we receive the Holy Ghost we can pray for whoever, whenever and wherever the Spirit leads us: For them to be healed, delivered or pray through to the Holy Ghost. If there is water, what does hinder them to be baptized? YOU can baptize them in Jesus name. Just be sure they have repented and it’s understood what takes place in baptism. I have witnessed healings, participated in baptisms and helped pray many thru to Holy Ghost in my Church as well as a few on the streets and even in my living room. I am not in a religion but in a relationship with my Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.

Ephesians 4: 5 One Lord, one faith, ONE BAPTISM, WHICH BAPTISM? 1. The baptism, John the Baptist gave in WATER. (Matthew 3:11) OR 2. The baptism, Jesus gave in Holy Spirit. (Acts 1:5 and Luke 24:49) OR 3. The baptism, Holy Spirit gave in Jesus Christ as one body. (1 Corinthians 12:13 and Galatians 3:27). Today in the dispensation of Grace, Paul says there is ONLY ONE BAPTISM. Which one is that? John the Baptist gave to Israel. Jesus gave to the little flock. Holy Spirit gave to the Body of Christ. So according to Paul, we have only ONE BAPTISM which saves us in the present dispensation grace, which is given by the Holy Spirit into Jesus Christ in one body. So Water Baptism is an old one which was given to Israel. We the Body of Christ have only one baptism which was given by Holy Spirit into Jesus Christ in his death, burial and resurrection in one body which has the head as Christ. So according to Ephesians 4:5 this is the only one baptism Paul was talking about. When God changes things in the Bible to next modified advanced level old things are of no value. For example, the sacrificial laws of Moses for the sin was replaced by the sacrifice Of Jesus Christ and we no longer go back to the animal sacrifice which was commanded in the Bible. Same way the medium of baptism and the giver of baptism was changed. The giver was changed from humans to the Holy Spirit and the Medium of baptism changed from physical water to spiritual Jesus Christ. That's why the right division of the word of truth is necessary according to 2 Timothy 2:15 (KJV) Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.

Dr. P. Samuel Paul Acts 19:3-7(NRSV): "Then he said, “Into what then were you baptized?” They answered, “Into John’s baptism.” 4 Paul said, “John baptized with the baptism of repentance, telling the people to believe in the one who was to come after him, that is, in Jesus.” 5 On hearing this, they were baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus. 6 When Paul had laid his hands on them, the Holy Spirit came upon them, and they spoke in tongues and prophesied- 7 altogether there were about twelve of them." And Acts 8:35-38: "Then Philip began to speak, and starting with this scripture, he proclaimed to him the good news about Jesus. 36 As they were going along the road, they came to some water; and the eunuch said, “Look, here is water! What is to prevent me from being baptized?”[h] 38 He commanded the chariot to stop, and both of them, Philip and the eunuch, went down into the water, and Philip[i] baptized him. " Philip had been commanded by Holy Spirit to join this man along the road, then he gave him a water baptism. The 'one baptism' is into the name of Jesus it seems, but it is not only for the Jews. Both water and Holy Spirit are needed. The eunuch was not a Jew, he was Ethiopian it says previously in chapter 8.

Book of Acts was a transition book. which records: The transition from Peter's ministry to Paul's ministry. The transition from Law to Grace. The transition from believing nation of Israel (Little Flock) to the Body of Christ. Book of Acts is NOT A DOCTRINAL BOOK. The content constantly changes in the Book of Acts. For example 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. ***So Baptism IS NECESSARY for receiving the of the Holy Ghost.*** BUT Acts 10: 44 - 48 44 While Peter yet spake these words, THE HOLY GHOST FELL ON ALL THEM WHICH HEARD THE WORD. 45 And they of the circumcision which believed were astonished, as many as came with Peter, because that on the Gentiles also WAS POURED OUT THE GIFT OF THE HOLY GHOST. 46 For they heard them speak with tongues, and magnify God. Then answered Peter, 47 CAN ANY MAN FORBID WATER, THAT THESE SHOULD NOT BE BAPTIZED, which have received the Holy Ghost as well as we? 48 And he commanded them TO BE BAPTIZED IN THE NAME OF THE LORD. Then prayed they him to tarry certain days. They received the gift of the holy BEFORE being baptised. ***So Baptism IS ****NOT**** NECESSARY for receiving the of the Holy Ghost.*** The teaching changed from chapter 2 to chapter 10. The same way ****WE ARE NOT DOING TODAY**** what was said in Acts 4: 32- 35 32 And the multitude of them that believed were of one heart and of one soul: NEITHER SAID ANY OF THEM THAT OUGHT OF THE THINGS WHICH HE POSSESSED WAS IN OWN; BUT THEY HAD ALL THINGS COMMON. 33 And with great power gave the apostles witness of the resurrection of the Lord Jesus: and great grace was upon them all. 34 Neither was there any among them that lacked: FOR AS MANY AS WERE POSSESSORS OF LANDS OR HOUSES SOLD THEM, AND BROUGHT THE PRICES OF THE THINGS THAT WERE SOLD, 35 AND LAID THEM DOWN AT THE APOSTELS' FEET: AND DISTRIBUTION WAS MADE UNTO EVERY MAN ACCORDING AS HE HAD NEED. The same way ****GOD IS NOT DOING TODAY**** what was said in Acts 5: 1 -10 God is NOT KILLING US TODAY FOR LYING TO THE HOLY GHOST. The eunuch was a ***JEWISH ETHIOPIAN*** during those time there were many Jewish people settled in all over places and even in Ethiopia. He is one of the Jew and NOT GENTILE. Even Paul was from TARSUS in Turkey and he was NOT A GENTILE. Because even until Chapter 11 the disciples had the Jew and Gentile division and they preached ONLY TO THE JEWS and NOT TO ANYONE ELSE, (Means THE BODY OF CHRIST DID NOT EXIST TILL THAT TIME) Acts 11: 19 - Now they which were scattered abroad upon the persecution that arose about Stephen travelled as far as Phenice, and Cyprus, and Antioch, ****PREACHING THE WORD TO NONE BUT UNTO THE JEWS ONLY.**** The giver and the mode of Baptism also changed: (Giver) - John the Baptist (Mode) - Water to (Giver) - Jesus Christ (Mode) - Holy Ghost to (Giver) - Holy Ghost (Mode) - Jesus Christ. In the present dispensation of Grace of God, there is ONLY ONE BAPTISM which is given BY THE HOLY SPIRIT INTO JESUS CHRIST as one Body of Christ. 1 Corinthians 12: 13 - For BY ONE SPIRIT are we all BAPTIZED INTO ONE BODY, whether we be Jews or Gentiles, whether we be bond or free; and have been all made to drink into one Spirit. Galatians 3: 27 - For as many of you as have been BAPTIZED INTO CHRIST have put on Christ. 1 Corinthians 1: 17 - For Christ sent me ***NOT TO BAPTIZE,*** BUT TO PREACH THE GOSPEL: not with wisdom of words, lest the cross of Christ should be made of none effect. Today in the dispensation of grace, Baptizing is done by the Holy Spirit (Not by Pastors) into Jesus Christ (Not into Water). 2 Timothy 2: 15 - Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, ***RIGHTLY DIVIDING*** the word of truth.

Dr. P. Samuel Paul I can't see any proof that the Ethiopian Eunuch was a Jew that Philip baptized. Water baptism is necessary or Jesus wouldn't have had it. He was baptized in the Jordan which is very symbolic if it's true that it's the lowest part of the earth. To be immersed there in the depths of the earth, lower than our level and then risen on high later, doesn't that symbolize what he came for? Also the Holy Spirit came upon him like a dove and this signified who he was (John 1:32-34). John said this would be the one who would baptize with Holy Spirit. This is saying only Jesus does that. Man baptizes with water, but God with Holy Spirit.

Dr. P. Samuel Paul Before Acts 11, Peter in Acts 10 asked for water to baptize the gentiles who'd just been baptized with Holy Spirit. Acts 10:44-48 (NRSV) "44 While Peter was still speaking, the Holy Spirit fell upon all who heard the word. 45 The circumcised believers who had come with Peter were astounded that the gift of the Holy Spirit had been poured out even on the Gentiles, 46 for they heard them speaking in tongues and extolling God. Then Peter said, 47 “Can anyone withhold the water for baptizing these people who have received the Holy Spirit just as we have?” 48 So he ordered them to be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ. Then they invited him to stay for several days." Nothing to do with Paul being first.

I have a question if you could help me I would appreciate it. I was baptized as a baby in the Catholic Church. I feel grateful that my parents did this because I feel like my soul was protected throughout my life because of it. It was the same God that I believe in now just a different organized religious building (I am a Christian but no longer identifying with the Catholic denomination) In my heart i am baptized already. I would feel like I don't really believe in baptism if I were to do it again as an adult but I do believe in baptism. I believe it was done already and God knows this why repeat it. Does it matter who baptizes you in the name of Jesus or just that you can understand it all? Thanks.

There is no need for water baptism today if you have believed and trust the gospel. That Jesus died shedding His blood, was buried and rose, for the forgiveness of your sins. This is what saves us. I Cor 15:1-4. Paul said: 1Cor 1:17 For Christ sent me not to baptize, but to preach the gospel: not with wisdom of words, lest the cross of Christ should be made of none effect. The gospel that saves us today does not require water baptism at all, for any reason or by any method. There is only one baptism for us in the body of Christ and the Spirit is the one who does the baptizing , NOT a man. Eph 4:4 There is one body, and one Spirit, even as ye are called in one hope of your calling; Eph 4:5 One Lord, one faith, one baptism, 1Cor 12:13 For by one Spirit are we all baptized into one body, whether we be Jews or Gentiles, whether we be bond or free; and have been all made to drink into one Spirit.

Toni the Artist Michele Allen’s Testimony: I was born and raised in New Holstein, WI in a very good home. But deep inside of me there was an aching and hunger for more of God. When I was 17 I was shown in the Bible that “Ye must be born again”. I was told to say a “sinners prayer” I sincerely repented and cried rivers of heartfelt genuine tears. I was told I was “born again” But after a while I experienced feelings of the frustration and guilt of not being able to live for God. I could not seem to grow in God like the Bible talked about and continued to revert back to a sinful lifestyle. I felt utterly defeated Bc I could not stay faithful to God, His Word or His commandments. 3 years later I walked into an Apostolic Church in Appleton/Menasha WI and the truth of salvation was revealed: The Gospel is the Death, Burial and Resurrection of Jesus Christ: (I Corinthians 15: 1-4). I learned to rightly divide the word of truth: The 4 Gospels: Matthew, Mark, Luke and John witness Jesus’ earthly ministry: He healed the sick, raised the dead, cast out demons and performed many miracles. In John 3, Nicodemus came to Jesus. They talked ABOUT being born again (JOHN 3:3-5 Except a man be born of the water and of the Spirit he cannot enter the kingdom of heaven) but no one was ACTUALLY born again in the 4 gospels. Before Calvary they were still under the law but after Calvary we are under grace (Church Age) so it was not possible to be born again bc Jesus had not yet been glorified (John 7:37-39). This is why the thief on the cross was able to be in paradise...he was still under the dispensation of the law. It isn’t until the day of Pentecost, in Acts you witness people actually BEING born of the water by being baptized by immersion ONLY in the name of Jesus and BEING filled with the Holy Ghost with the evidence of speaking in tongues. To find out HOW to be born again, go to the Book of Acts: Acts2:1-4,2:38,3:19,8:12-18,8:35-39,10:43-4816:30-34,18:8,19:2-6 John 3:8 Speaks of how you cannot SEE the wind but you know that it is moving because you SEE the branches move and you HEAR the wind through the leaves. And so is every man that is born of the Spirit. You cannot SEE the Spirit of God (John 4:24) but when it enters a man (Acts 2:33, 4:20): you SEE tongue move and you HEAR the words of them speaking as the Spirit gives the utterance. - [ ] Whenever God gave a promise he always gave the SIGN to that promise.

Then God made a covenant/promise with Abraham that he would be the father of many nations and the SIGN of that promise was circumcision. In the NT God’s covenant/ promise to us is the Holy Ghost. The SIGN to that promise is tongues. James 3 says the tongue is the most unruly member of the body.

Teach and baptize go together for sure. Order is not significant.babies know their mother's voice at birth and even before. They even trust her in every way. What a perfect picture of Christ taking care of us and saving us in baptism. Love the water and the word, especially when they are connected as in baptism.

I agree with second part but not the first.I would say to his question what is baptism that its not just an expression, its 1) receiving the holy spirt and 2)being born again 1) Matthew 3:16 As soon as Jesus was baptized, he went up out of the water. At that moment heaven was opened, and he saw the Spirit of God descending like a dove and resting on him 2) John 3:5 Born of Water and the Spirit I agree with second part thou that you dont need to be babtized more than once thou because if you believe catholic thinking, its not like the power of god wasnt strong enough the first time because like even those guys said its not something you do it something God does. If you go with their way of thinking thou I think it kind of takes away the whole thing that makes it special because they said its just an expression where catholics more think of it as receiving Gods grace through the Holy Spirit which can be done because Jesus died for you.

Jay J: Michele Allen’s Testimony: I was born and raised in New Holstein, WI in a very good home. But deep inside of me there was an aching and hunger for more of God. When I was 17 I was shown in the Bible that “Ye must be born again”. I was told to say a “sinners prayer” I sincerely repented and cried rivers of heartfelt genuine tears. I was told I was “born again” But after a while I experienced feelings of the frustration and guilt of not being able to live for God. I could not seem to grow in God like the Bible talked about and continued to revert back to a sinful lifestyle. I felt utterly defeated Bc I could not stay faithful to God, His Word or His commandments. 3 years later I walked into an Apostolic Church in Appleton/Menasha WI and the truth of salvation was revealed: The Gospel is the Death, Burial and Resurrection of Jesus Christ: (I Corinthians 15: 1-4). I learned to rightly divide the word of truth: The 4 Gospels: Matthew, Mark, Luke and John witness Jesus’ earthly ministry: He healed the sick, raised the dead, cast out demons and performed many miracles. In John 3, Nicodemus came to Jesus. They talked ABOUT being born again (JOHN 3:3-5 Except a man be born of the water and of the Spirit he cannot enter the kingdom of heaven) but no one was ACTUALLY born again in the 4 gospels. Before Calvary they were still under the law but after Calvary we are under grace (Church Age) so it was not possible to be born again bc Jesus had not yet been glorified (John 7:37-39). This is why the thief on the cross was able to be in paradise...he was still under the dispensation of the law. It isn’t until the day of Pentecost, in Acts you witness people actually BEING born of the water by being baptized by immersion ONLY in the name of Jesus and BEING filled with the Holy Ghost with the evidence of speaking in tongues. To find out HOW to be born again, go to the Book of Acts: Acts2:1-4,2:38,3:19,8:12-18,8:35-39,10:43-4816:30-34,18:8,19:2-6 John 3:8 Speaks of how you cannot SEE the wind but you know that it is moving because you SEE the branches move and you HEAR the wind through the leaves. And so is every man that is born of the Spirit. You cannot SEE the Spirit of God (John 4:24) but when it enters a man (Acts 2:33, 4:20): you SEE tongue move and you HEAR the words of them speaking as the Spirit gives the utterance. - [ ] Whenever God gave a promise he always gave the SIGN to that promise. In the OT he made a covenant/promise with Noah: He would never flood the earth with water again and the SIGN to that promise was the rainbow. Then God made a covenant/promise with Abraham that he would be the father of many nations and the SIGN of that promise was circumcision. In the NT God’s covenant/ promise to us is the Holy Ghost. The SIGN to that promise is tongues. James 3 says the tongue is the most unruly member of the body. So when God has control of our tongue we have truly submitted. - [ ] God is a Consuming Fire...Deuteronomy 4:24,9:3,9:12 Hebrews 12:29 - [ ] Matt 3:11-12, Luke 3:16-18, Acts 2:5...He will baptize you with the Holy Ghost and with Fire. Acts 2:3...Tongues like as of Fire. Acts 2:1-4, Acts 10:44-46, Acts 19:2-6...Holy Ghost & Tongues. Acts 15:7-9, Acts 10:45-46...Holy Ghost, Fire Purifies, Gentiles Spoke in Tongues. - [ ] Matthew 13:42,18:8, Mark 9:47-48, Rev 20:10, 10:14-15, 21:8...Lake of Fire - [ ] CONTROLLED BURNS - When a trench is dug around an unquenchable fire to consume the fuel source. FIREFIGHTERS do this to FIGHT FIRE WITH FIRE. Only way we can fight the fires of hell is to be filled with the CONSUMING FIRE HIMSELF...The Spirit of a Holy God. The Epistles: Romans - Jude are written to the churches that experienced the Acts 2:38 salvation. If you haven’t, these letters are not yet for you bc you cannot be expected to live a holy life without a holy God living inside you. If you want to find out HOW to be born again you do not go to the Epistles, only to Acts. In Acts and Epistles it does say to: “Believe on the Lord” and you will be saved. Believe what? What have the disciples been preaching this whole time? The Gospel. What is the Gospel? I Corin 15:1-4 1. Death, 2. Burial 3. Resurrection. (II Thessalonians 1:8) How do we OBEY (action word) the Gospel? 1. Repent (death to self), 2. Batism in Jesus name (Burial) 3. Holy Ghost (Resurrection) with the evidence of speaking in tongues in Acts 2:38-39 and John 3:3-8. The 1. Death 2. Burial 3. Resurrection=1. Repentance 2. Baptism 3. Holy Ghost theme is thread throughout the entire Bible: In Exodus when the children of Israel were in Egyptian bondage God told Moses to tell them to put the blood on the door post of the HOUSE 🏡 THREE (3) times and then the death Angel would pass over them and the firstborn in their house would not (physically) die. It’s the same for us: When we 1. Repent 2. Get Baptized 3. Receive Holy Ghost. The blood🩸of Jesus is applied to us each time (if we OBEY we will not die spiritually) bc in Ephesians 2:22, I Corinthians 3:16 and Romans 8:9-11 it says that we are the HOUSE 🏠 of God. In Leviticus when the Priest went into the TABERNACLE/TEMPLE to perform the ritual for the children of Israel to have their sins rolled ahead one year up till Calvary. The PRIEST applied blood on his body 3 times and he also applied blood on the 3 pieces of the furniture in the TEMPLE. The Bible says in first Peter 2:5-9 that we are royal PRIESThood . (I Corinthians 6:19) The Bible also says that our bodies are TEMPLES of the Holy Ghost. So it is the same for us: when we 1. Repent 2. Are baptized 3. Get Holy Ghost. The blood of Jesus is applied to us. Obedience is an action word. We can “believe” the light will turn on but unless we turn light switch on the light won’t go on. (Ephesians 2:8-9, Acts 15: 7-11) We are saved by grace and faith. We are so often accused of works for salvation. When we are commanded to be baptized (Matt 28:19, Acts 8:48,10:45) we are simply being obedient to the Gospel (2Thes1:8,Romans10:16,Acts6:7,Gal5:7) by having the faith to know that the gospel saves us. I was almost 20 years old when I went down into the waters of baptism in Jesus name for the remission of my sin. When I came up out of the water I could hardly breathe bc Gods presence was so intense and the unbearable weight I felt lifted off me was immense! (At this moment, in a natural birth, the water, blood and baby is there but until the you HEAR the baby CRY after taking in its first BREATH it could be still born. So you wait for the CRY to know baby is alive-So is everyone that it’s born of the Spirit). I began to speak in other tongues and could not speak English! It was the most amazing, most powerful, most enlightening and cleansing experience ever. It wasn’t till THAT MOMENT I was truly born of water and of the Spirit. Thus, BORN AGAIN! I was finally filled with the power to help me live a victorious life. Romans 13:14, Galatians 3:27-When you are baptized you are “covered” you have “put on” Christ (Gen 3:21-God “clothed” or “put on” the coats of skins of a bloody animal to “cover” the sin of Adam and Eve), (Romans 6:4) you are buried with Him in baptism, (Acts 2:33, 3:19) you have your sin remitted, (Acts 4:12) you take on His name and become the Bride of Christ in baptism. The only way anyone was ever baptized was in the name of Jesus! Matthew 28:18-19. Jesus said: ALL POWER IS GIVEN UNTO ME IN HEAVEN AND IN EARTH. (SO ALL POWER OF HEAVEN AND EARTH MUST BE IN THE NAME OF JESUS!) John 5:43-The name of the Father is Jesus, Matthew 1:21-The name of the Son is Jesus, John 14:26-The name of the Holy Ghost is Jesus. Jesus was crucified for WHO HE WAS not for what he did. When we truly understand WHO Jesus is we will understand the importance of being baptized in Jesus name. Romans 8:9-16. You are then adopted and become the sons and daughters of God. The Holy Ghost is just a portion of our inheritance. If we do not have His Spirit dwelling in us we are none of His. Those years between the ages of 17-20 I was living on a repentance experience...leaving Jesus hanging there on the cross, so to speak. (Matthew 28:19, Mark 16:16, Acts 2:14-41, Acts 8:37-38, Acts 10:47-48) tells me I was not obeying the command to be buried with him in the waters of baptism and I had not received the Holy Ghost so thus was not resurrected to walk in newness of life. Therefore, could not live a victorious Christian life. We can go out into the highways and by-ways to share our testimony and compel the lost to come in to the church, cell groups, house meetings. The new converts need a place to fellowship with saints of like precious faith and to grow in Christ. They need a place of refuge Bc when they get saved the enemy is going to attack hard. They need a Pastor, who not only shepherds and gently guides their souls but is accountable to preach the truth as well. As soon we receive the Holy Ghost we can pray for whoever, whenever and wherever the Spirit leads us: For them to be healed, delivered or pray through to the Holy Ghost. If there is water, what does hinder them to be baptized? YOU can baptize them in Jesus name. Just be sure they have repented and it’s understood what takes place in baptism. I have witnessed healings, participated in baptisms and helped pray many thru to Holy Ghost in my Church as well as a few on the streets and even in my living room. I am not in a religion but in a relationship with my Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.

There's no such thing as being re-baptized. Once you're validly baptized once, that's it. If you try getting baptized again, all you get is wet. Also, the idea that baptism is an "outward sign of inward faith," or whatever, is contrary to the Scriptures. St. Peter said that just like Noah and his family were saved through the flood, baptism now saves us

To Aysel. [Your last posting is not appearing for some reason, so here is my reply]. You are quite correct regarding my motives.....to which I have every reason to be joyful and justified in teaching the Holy words of the Lord Christ and his Apostles. For you fail to understand..... "3 Beloved, when I gave all diligence to write unto you of the common salvation, it was needful for me to write unto you, and exhort you that ye should **earnestly contend for the faith** which was once delivered unto the saints" Jude 1:3 (KJV) Note: The rite of baptism AFTER belief is essential to our salvation as the Lord Christ has well specified. "He that believeth AND is BAPTIZED shall be saved" .

There is only one Baptism necessary for the Body of Christ in this dispensation according to the words Jesus gave us from Paul: Eph 4:5 One Lord, one faith, one baptism, That is by the Spirit into one body. No water in this one baptism. 1Cor 12:13 For by one Spirit are we all baptized into one body, whether we be Jews or Gentiles, whether we be bond or free; and have been all made to drink into one Spirit. This happens once we believe Jesus died on the cross shedding His blood, was buried, rose for the forgiveness of our sins. By trusting this alone by faith we are saved and put into the body of Christ by the Spirit. This is the only baptism needed and takes place in this time we live. NO water necessary. The words and the math are very simple. One means "one". Put away your traditions and believe the bible.

Note also: "23 And John also was baptizing in Enon near to Salim, **because there was MUCH WATER** there: and they came, and were baptized." John 3:22-23 (ASV) Note also: When the Eunuch was baptizedby Phillip AFTER belief in Christ he used WATER to baptize him.

@@earnestlycontendingforthef5332 You are listening to traditions of men. I understand, I did it for 35 yrs. before I started rightly dividing God's word as He tells us in II Tim 2:15. There is only one Baptism necessary for the Body of Christ in this dispensation according to the words Jesus gave us from Paul: Eph 4:5 One Lord, one faith, one baptism, That is by the Spirit into one body. No water in this one baptism. 1Cor 12:13 For by one Spirit are we all baptized into one body, whether we be Jews or Gentiles, whether we be bond or free; and have been all made to drink into one Spirit. This happens once we believe Jesus died on the cross shedding His blood, was buried, rose for the forgiveness of our sins. By trusting this alone by faith we are saved and are put into the body of Christ by the Spirit. This is the only baptism needed and takes place in this time we live. NO water necessary. The words and the math are very simple. One means "one". Put away your traditions and believe the bible. Whatever you think you are doing when you get wet has nothing to do with what Jesus told us to do through OUR apostle Paul. The one baptism we experience is done by the Spirit, not a man. Just read the verses and know the context in which they were written.

Baptism is NOT "an outward expression of an inward faith". That is a doctrine of devils, taught in the mainstream churches, and is not found ANYWHERE in the BIBLE. The BIBLE says that new testament baptism in the name of Jesus Christ is FOR THE REMISSION OF SINS, and that IT SAVES US. "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." Acts 2:38 "...eight souls were saved by water. 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." 1 Peter 3:20,21 "And now why tarriest thou? arise, and be baptized, and wash away thy sins, calling on the name of the Lord." Acts 22:16 The way of salvation for all people, since the day that the new testament began, on the day of Pentecost, 50 days after the resurrection of our Lord Jesus Christ, is a baptism of water and Spirit, whereby we are baptized into the body of Christ, and adopted into the family of God. The name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost, is Jesus Christ. Matthew 28:19, Acts 2:38 Neither is there salvation in any other; for there is none other name under heaven, given among men, whereby we must be saved. Acts 4:12 Amen.

Pastor, I watched your previous video on “should I be baptized to go to Heaven” you missed one important key part and that is using “dispensations”. you do not have to be baptized to be saved. Baptism is an outwardly works to show our faith in Jesus. Me as an Christian believes in baptism, but I also know that I don’t have to be baptized to be saved. Only Jesus can save me. I know you don’t believe in Nephilim “Giants.” Giants ruled over the world and that’s why God flooded this world. This is why “dispensations” is key to studying the Holy Bible! Please do not mislead Christians. If we needed works to be saved, then there is no reason for Jesus to come save us in the first place!

Oliver de Lyon: Michele Allen’s Testimony: I was born and raised in New Holstein, WI in a very good home. But deep inside of me there was an aching and hunger for more of God. When I was 17 I was shown in the Bible that “Ye must be born again”. I was told to say a “sinners prayer” I sincerely repented and cried rivers of heartfelt genuine tears. I was told I was “born again” But after a while I experienced feelings of the frustration and guilt of not being able to live for God. I could not seem to grow in God like the Bible talked about and continued to revert back to a sinful lifestyle. I felt utterly defeated Bc I could not stay faithful to God, His Word or His commandments. 3 years later I walked into an Apostolic Church in Appleton/Menasha WI and the truth of salvation was revealed: The Gospel is the Death, Burial and Resurrection of Jesus Christ: (I Corinthians 15: 1-4). I learned to rightly divide the word of truth: The 4 Gospels: Matthew, Mark, Luke and John witness Jesus’ earthly ministry: He healed the sick, raised the dead, cast out demons and performed many miracles. In John 3, Nicodemus came to Jesus. They talked ABOUT being born again (JOHN 3:3-5 Except a man be born of the water and of the Spirit he cannot enter the kingdom of heaven) but no one was ACTUALLY born again in the 4 gospels. Before Calvary they were still under the law but after Calvary we are under grace (Church Age) so it was not possible to be born again bc Jesus had not yet been glorified (John 7:37-39). This is why the thief on the cross was able to be in paradise...he was still under the dispensation of the law. It isn’t until the day of Pentecost, in Acts you witness people actually BEING born of the water by being baptized by immersion ONLY in the name of Jesus and BEING filled with the Holy Ghost with the evidence of speaking in tongues. To find out HOW to be born again, go to the Book of Acts: Acts2:1-4,2:38,3:19,8:12-18,8:35-39,10:43-4816:30-34,18:8,19:2-6 John 3:8 Speaks of how you cannot SEE the wind but you know that it is moving because you SEE the branches move and you HEAR the wind through the leaves. And so is every man that is born of the Spirit. You cannot SEE the Spirit of God (John 4:24) but when it enters a man (Acts 2:33, 4:20): you SEE tongue move and you HEAR the words of them speaking as the Spirit gives the utterance. - [ ] Whenever God gave a promise he always gave the SIGN to that promise. In the OT he made a covenant/promise with Noah: He would never flood the earth with water again and the SIGN to that promise was the rainbow. Then God made a covenant/promise with Abraham that he would be the father of many nations and the SIGN of that promise was circumcision. In the NT God’s covenant/ promise to us is the Holy Ghost. The SIGN to that promise is tongues. James 3 says the tongue is the most unruly member of the body. So when God has control of our tongue we have truly submitted. - [ ] God is a Consuming Fire...Deuteronomy 4:24,9:3,9:12 Hebrews 12:29 - [ ] Matt 3:11-12, Luke 3:16-18, Acts 2:5...He will baptize you with the Holy Ghost and with Fire. Acts 2:3...Tongues like as of Fire. Acts 2:1-4, Acts 10:44-46, Acts 19:2-6...Holy Ghost & Tongues. Acts 15:7-9, Acts 10:45-46...Holy Ghost, Fire Purifies, Gentiles Spoke in Tongues. - [ ] Matthew 13:42,18:8, Mark 9:47-48, Rev 20:10, 10:14-15, 21:8...Lake of Fire - [ ] CONTROLLED BURNS - When a trench is dug around an unquenchable fire to consume the fuel source. FIREFIGHTERS do this to FIGHT FIRE WITH FIRE. Only way we can fight the fires of hell is to be filled with the CONSUMING FIRE HIMSELF...The Spirit of a Holy God. The Epistles: Romans - Jude are written to the churches that experienced the Acts 2:38 salvation. If you haven’t, these letters are not yet for you bc you cannot be expected to live a holy life without a holy God living inside you. If you want to find out HOW to be born again you do not go to the Epistles, only to Acts. In Acts and Epistles it does say to: “Believe on the Lord” and you will be saved. Believe what? What have the disciples been preaching this whole time? The Gospel. What is the Gospel? I Corin 15:1-4 1. Death, 2. Burial 3. Resurrection. (II Thessalonians 1:8) How do we OBEY (action word) the Gospel? 1. Repent (death to self), 2. Batism in Jesus name (Burial) 3. Holy Ghost (Resurrection) with the evidence of speaking in tongues in Acts 2:38-39 and John 3:3-8. The 1. Death 2. Burial 3. Resurrection=1. Repentance 2. Baptism 3. Holy Ghost theme is thread throughout the entire Bible: In Exodus when the children of Israel were in Egyptian bondage God told Moses to tell them to put the blood on the door post of the HOUSE 🏡 THREE (3) times and then the death Angel would pass over them and the firstborn in their house would not (physically) die. It’s the same for us: When we 1. Repent 2. Get Baptized 3. Receive Holy Ghost. The blood🩸of Jesus is applied to us each time (if we OBEY we will not die spiritually) bc in Ephesians 2:22, I Corinthians 3:16 and Romans 8:9-11 it says that we are the HOUSE 🏠 of God. In Leviticus when the Priest went into the TABERNACLE/TEMPLE to perform the ritual for the children of Israel to have their sins rolled ahead one year up till Calvary. The PRIEST applied blood on his body 3 times and he also applied blood on the 3 pieces of the furniture in the TEMPLE. The Bible says in first Peter 2:5-9 that we are royal PRIESThood . (I Corinthians 6:19) The Bible also says that our bodies are TEMPLES of the Holy Ghost. So it is the same for us: when we 1. Repent 2. Are baptized 3. Get Holy Ghost. The blood of Jesus is applied to us. Obedience is an action word. We can “believe” the light will turn on but unless we turn light switch on the light won’t go on. (Ephesians 2:8-9, Acts 15: 7-11) We are saved by grace and faith. We are so often accused of works for salvation. When we are commanded to be baptized (Matt 28:19, Acts 8:48,10:45) we are simply being obedient to the Gospel (2Thes1:8,Romans10:16,Acts6:7,Gal5:7) by having the faith to know that the gospel saves us. I was almost 20 years old when I went down into the waters of baptism in Jesus name for the remission of my sin. When I came up out of the water I could hardly breathe bc Gods presence was so intense and the unbearable weight I felt lifted off me was immense! (At this moment, in a natural birth, the water, blood and baby is there but until the you HEAR the baby CRY after taking in its first BREATH it could be still born. So you wait for the CRY to know baby is alive-So is everyone that it’s born of the Spirit). I began to speak in other tongues and could not speak English! It was the most amazing, most powerful, most enlightening and cleansing experience ever. It wasn’t till THAT MOMENT I was truly born of water and of the Spirit. Thus, BORN AGAIN! I was finally filled with the power to help me live a victorious life. Romans 13:14, Galatians 3:27-When you are baptized you are “covered” you have “put on” Christ (Gen 3:21-God “clothed” or “put on” the coats of skins of a bloody animal to “cover” the sin of Adam and Eve), (Romans 6:4) you are buried with Him in baptism, (Acts 2:33, 3:19) you have your sin remitted, (Acts 4:12) you take on His name and become the Bride of Christ in baptism. The only way anyone was ever baptized was in the name of Jesus! Matthew 28:18-19. Jesus said: ALL POWER IS GIVEN UNTO ME IN HEAVEN AND IN EARTH. (SO ALL POWER OF HEAVEN AND EARTH MUST BE IN THE NAME OF JESUS!) John 5:43-The name of the Father is Jesus, Matthew 1:21-The name of the Son is Jesus, John 14:26-The name of the Holy Ghost is Jesus. Jesus was crucified for WHO HE WAS not for what he did. When we truly understand WHO Jesus is we will understand the importance of being baptized in Jesus name. Romans 8:9-16. You are then adopted and become the sons and daughters of God. The Holy Ghost is just a portion of our inheritance. If we do not have His Spirit dwelling in us we are none of His. Those years between the ages of 17-20 I was living on a repentance experience...leaving Jesus hanging there on the cross, so to speak. (Matthew 28:19, Mark 16:16, Acts 2:14-41, Acts 8:37-38, Acts 10:47-48) tells me I was not obeying the command to be buried with him in the waters of baptism and I had not received the Holy Ghost so thus was not resurrected to walk in newness of life. Therefore, could not live a victorious Christian life. We can go out into the highways and by-ways to share our testimony and compel the lost to come in to the church, cell groups, house meetings. The new converts need a place to fellowship with saints of like precious faith and to grow in Christ. They need a place of refuge Bc when they get saved the enemy is going to attack hard. They need a Pastor, who not only shepherds and gently guides their souls but is accountable to preach the truth as well. As soon we receive the Holy Ghost we can pray for whoever, whenever and wherever the Spirit leads us: For them to be healed, delivered or pray through to the Holy Ghost. If there is water, what does hinder them to be baptized? YOU can baptize them in Jesus name. Just be sure they have repented and it’s understood what takes place in baptism. I have witnessed healings, participated in baptisms and helped pray many thru to Holy Ghost in my Church as well as a few on the streets and even in my living room. I am not in a religion but in a relationship with my Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.

It they are old enough to understand and can explain it they can get baptized as well. As soon as you can find a church or someone that has already been baptized and have them baptize you. You will then receive the gift of the Holy Ghost which they also received in the Book of Acts. That is where the first Century church started. That is where the dispensation of grace began so it is in Acts that you find out how to be born again.

Salvation is found only in Jesus Christ! The gift of eternal salvation is a free gift given by God to all those who will believe in the Lord Jesus Christ and His death, burial, and resurrection for salvation. ARE YOU SAVED IN THE LORD JESUS CHRIST? REMEMBER, WE ARE NOT PROMISED A TOMORROW. RIGHT NOW, GOD WANTS TO SAVE YOU. THE WAY TO BE SAVED 👉To be saved you MUST admit you are a sinner in need of the Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ! 👉You MUST turn from UNBELIEF to BELIEF in the Gospel 1 Cor 15: 1-4 (this is Biblical repentance)! 👉You MUST believe Jesus died for your sins ( How Christ died? by shedding his precious blood) according to the Scriptures! 👉You MUST believe Jesus was buried! 👉You MUST believe He rose again on the third day, according to the Scriptures! 👉YOU MUST ADD NOTHING!!! Remember that you cannot save yourself, neither your church nor your own good works. It is by only believing and trusting what Jesus Christ did for you(death, burial, and resurrection) that can save your soul from Hellfire. ONLY THE LORD JESUS CHRIST SAVES!

Yes! Baptizing unbelieving babies is totally unScriptural. Only believers were baptized just as Christ himself has instructed. "16 He who believes [who adheres to and trusts in and relies on the Gospel and Him Whom it sets forth] **and is baptized** will be saved [ from the penalty of eternal death]; but he who does not believe [who does not adhere to and trust in and rely on the Gospel and Him Whom it sets forth] will be condemned" Mark 16:16 (AMP.Bible) Belief MUST come before baptism. Babies cannot believe neither can they consent to be baptized. Even then they are only sprinkled with water which is not Christian baptism. Full immersion is the true "One baptism". "Buried with him in baptism"....

@Maya Kinney Quite correct, belief must come before baptism as St. Philip pointed out to the Ethiopian eunuch. "As they continued along on the way, they came to some water, and the eunuch exclaimed, See, [here is] water! What is to hinder my being baptized? 37 And Philip said, If you believe with all your heart [if you have a conviction, full of joyful trust, that Jesus is the Messiah and accept Him as the Author of your salvation in the kingdom of God, giving Him your obedience, then] you may." Acts 8:36-37 (AMPLIFIED BIBLE) Babies have no such conviction thus the baptism is fake. Christ has told us the formula if we wished to be saved. "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" Mark 16:15-16 (KJV) Thus an authentic Christ approved saving baptism, can only be administrated to one who BELIEVES in Christ. Babies are already made holy by a believing parent. "14 For the unbelieving husband is sanctified in the wife, and the unbelieving wife is sanctified in the brother; since [otherwise] indeed your children are unclean, but now they are holy." 1 Corinthians 7:13-14 (Darby)
