Baptism Saves!!
|
 |
|
Contrary to popular belief, baptism is
required for salvation. Baptism is the first point where a repenting
person receives forgiveness of sins. "For the wages of sin is death; but
the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord"(Romans
6:23). To receive this gift of God, we must obey his commands.
| Acts 2:38 |
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. |
| Mark 16:16 |
He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned. |
| Acts 22:16 |
And now why tarriest thou? Arise, and be baptized, and wash away thy sins, calling on the name of the Lord. |
| 1 Peter 3:21 |
...baptism now saves you-not the removal of dirt from the flesh, but an appeal to God for a good conscience-through the resurrection of Jesus Christ.(NASV) |
