Hello Brother
I received the holy spirit over a year before I was baptized in water and I personally feel that Without Gods spirit I'd perhaps never have become so obedient to follow all His commands, as for me being baptized in His spirit and Fire convicted me of His Love. I fell in complete 'I've gone cuckoo for Jesus' Love! That Love is the motive behind everything I now do. My water baptism therefore actually meant something. Like the difference between an arranged marriage and one that proceeds 2 people falling in Love. I always believe we should support our thinking with scripture, thereby building one another up in the purest of faith. Acts 10:44-48 44 While Peter was still speaking these words, the Holy Spirit fell upon all those who heard the word. 45 And those of the circumcision who believed were astonished, as many as came with Peter, because the gift of the Holy Spirit had been poured out on the Gentiles also. 46 For they heard them speak with tongues and magnify God. Then Peter answered, 47 “Can anyone forbid water, that these should not be baptized who have received the Holy Spirit just as we have?” 48 And he commanded them to be baptized in the name of the Lord. Then they asked him to stay a few days. May Grace and Peace be added to you and your house forever |

yet then people were baptized in moses days, crossing the sea. some died why? Cause of their actions. [Quote ] No one of them has died when they have crossing the sea. Only pharaohs soldiers. On the cross with Jesus a thief said to jesus forgive me. With his mouth. the thief was not baptize in water,[quote ] Jesus the life is still there with him. The true baptism begin with the Holy Spirit. Read acts 2 so clearly the mouth and actions has a sting, it can hate or heal. which are we? but actions and mouth together is powerful it shows people around us what we love. james 2) 6 As the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without deeds is dead.

Whenever we challenge the mainstream teaching on some doctrine, we always tent to get a number of people staying. ....."Well, this has the belief of the majority for centuries, so it must be right. I'm not going to go along with just a few who believe differently. It's the majority have the truth. " So I thought let's look in the Bible and see if this statement is correct or not. In my little opinion, I don't think following or doing something because majority are into it. Why? First because I believe I am uniquely created, with my own personality and don't need to be lost in the crowd. Secondly and most importantly narrow is the way that leads to life, while Broad is the way unto death. I hope my reply makes meaning to you. |
