Acts 10:47-48 King James Version (KJV) Can any man forbid water, that these should not be baptized, which have received the Holy Ghost as well as we? And he commanded them to be baptized in the name of the Lord.
They are already saved, then commanded to be baptized. Read the next chapter, specifically Acts 11:15-17, where Peter never mentions his water baptism to the Jewish brethren. He mentions John the Baptist's water baptism, but then refers to what he remembers that the "word of the Lord "says about being "baptized in the Holy Spirit." Shalom...
We need to be careful of the message that we're sending to new converts, false converts, Catholics, and the like about this matter. If water baptism is not a big deal, why does the Lord emphasize it and set the example himself? To me it is a command, and we ought to obey it. Now I understand that there are people who may have difficulty complying with it. The Lord has already provided for this lack. In our capacity as teachers, let's proclaim the Gospel like it is, repentance, water baptism, and confession of the lordship of Jesus-Christ then the Lord himself will perform the baptism in the Holy spirit. Oftentimes, the elaborate discussion/analysis/reasoning/rationale around this issue as it relates to salvation creates too much confusion, and this could be harmful to many in the faith. Water baptism does not save, but it is an act of obedience/faith with profound spiritual significance and that should not be undermined. I'd encourage everybody who have the wherewithal to get baptized in water to do it without delay.
I like this comment. I think people on both sides of this issue within the church are making it more complicated than what it is. We need to believe, repent, and be baptized..period. I know we don’t need to be baptized to initiate or receive salvation, but Jesus did tell us to, and therefore it is important for us to be obedient to. I myself, and others I know were saved through belief and repentance before we were able to be baptized. God did a work in our hearts before we hit the water. We began to change our minds and actions in regards to sin and reverence to God. It’s like I would have to reject what God did in my heart/life to receive the opposite doctrine. I’m glad I understood what salvation was and the significance of baptism, before I was baptized.
The only issue I have with what you said is that how you stated this implies that we should repent, go through water baptism and confess the lordship of Christ THEN the Lord will perform the baptism in to the Holy Spirit. We are baptized into the Holy Spirit at the moment we truly believe THEN comes the water baptism. We should make every effort to be baptized in water AFTER we have put our trust in Christ's redemptive work, but it is not required to be saved.
The Book of Acts is Historical with the Emphasis on Jesus Christ the rejected Savior by the Jewish Generation that would perish at the Destruction of The Temple and Jerusalem in 70 AD. Matthew 23:34-36; Luke 19:41-44. Peter tells the "House of Israel" to Repent (those who did) instantaneously were Born Again. Then comes Baptism. But read to verse 40 and you will see Peter then tells them to “Be saved from this perverse generation!” The new Believers, all from (the house of Israel) Acts 2:36, had to separate themselves from this generation that had crucified Jesus, in order to escape the coming judgement. Also you will see the same action from Paul, who is told by Ananias saying; "And now why tarriest thou? arise, and be baptized, and wash away thy sins, calling on the name of the Lord" in Acts 22:16. No one can wash away their own sins. Salvation is a free gift; Ephesians 2:5-10. And Jesus gives that Example clearly to "Doubting" Thomas in John 20:24-31. Shalom...
People who are hung up on water baptism being necessary in order to be saved are probably people who are relying on WORKS, and we know that our works CANNOT save us. It’s the Baptism of The Holy Spirit, that only The Lord can give, that saves us.
Hung up on water baptism ? why do you ignore the teachings of the scriptures reguarding repentance and Baptizm being required for ones salvation ! So Paul was wrong saying Acts 2 38 Repent AND be Baptized EVERY one of you to recieve the forgiveness of your sins !!

@@aussierob71771 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.
Great Video. A statement and 2 questions. 1. Water baptism can be availible anywhere depending on your view of mode. (Sprinkle vs. immersion) 2. How would respond to someone who holds to a second blessing understanding of Baptism in the spirit? They believe we are saved then at some other time receive the HS usually marked by speaking in tongues. 3. What are your thoughts on re-Baptism
So if you were an Israelite living during Moses time and you said to Moses circumcision is not necessary and only a public display, what would Moses say?
The beauty of Christ’s sacrifice is that faith in Christ saves us from the law of Moses. Moses may have wanted the one criminal on the cross to get baptized or circumcised but Jesus didn’t seem to mind, recognizing the man’s faith.
Where did you read anywhere in the Old Testament where they were promised heaven, only long life, death, wives, children, sheep, goats, kingdoms, kingdoms taken away etc.. The was not a permanent means of justification, no one could keep all of the commandments, breaking one made you guilty of them all. The remedy is God giving us a new heart not us changing ours. God giving us a new heart is how we are born from above (again) read Ezekiel 36:25-27 which is what Jesus was referring to when talking to Nicodemus
A lot of people in the comments don’t seem to know the difference between the baptism of the spirit and the outward expression of water baptism. A pastor said it like this, when you finish all your credits you are considered a graduate (baptism of the spirit) When you walk across the stage to get your diploma is the water baptism. You were a graduate (saved) before walking across that stage
Most of the people can’t tell that’s why the scripture says there are a few that find it, people like their father Satan, like to be in control. They want it to be in control of their salvation and not God because they want control like Satan didn’t heaven and Eve in the garden
Interesting to say the least. For salvation today, water baptism is not required according to the word of God. To be saved today, you only need to believe the "Gospel of Christ" Rom 1:16 16 For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek. What is the Gospel of Christ? 1 Cor 15: 3-4 3 For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; 4 And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures: Jesus died on the cross for your sins, buried and rose the 3rd day! That the gospel of Christ!!! There is only one baptism in this dispensation of grace and it's perform by God Himself! Eph 4:5 5 One Lord, one faith, one baptism, This one baptism is done by the operation of God! Col 2: 12 12 Buried with him in baptism, wherein also ye are risen with him through the faith of the operation of God, who hath raised him from the dead. So no stage, diploma or water needed.
It doesn't matter what the pastor said. We know Jesus Christ was baptized and he commanded his disciples to go out and baptize everyone...that's all we need to know.
@hermansmikle6685 What you need to know is the right gospel for salvation. Which is the gospel of Christ. Rom 1:16, 1 Cor 15: 3-4. The gospel of Christ is Jesus instructed Paul to preach. 1 Cor 1:17. Jesus sent him not to baptize, but to preach the gospel.
I had a conversation with my grandma 2 weeks ago, cuz she's a catholic who believes that people who dont get baptize go to hell, so when I pulled up the bible and pointed to Acts : Acts 16:30-31 He then brought them out and asked, “Sirs, what must I do to be saved?” They replied, “Believe in the Lord Jesus, and you will be saved-you and your household.” After I told showed her this and told her that baptism doesn't save, she yelled at me and said my bible wasn't creditable because the only creditable bible is the catholic one.... All I can do is pray for her.
from the new revised standard version - Catholic edition 30 Then he brought them outside and said, “Sirs, what must I do to be saved?” 31 They answered, “Believe on the Lord Jesus, and you will be saved, you and your household.” from the new catholic bible: 30 Then he brought them outside and said, “Sirs, what must I do to be saved?” 31 They answered, “Believe in the Lord Jesus, and you will be saved, and so too will your household.”
But to believe in God is to believe in his word a Mark 16:16 NIV [16] Whoever believes and is baptized will be saved, but whoever does not believe will be condemned. [5] Jesus answered, “Very truly I tell you, no one can enter the kingdom of God unless they are born of water and the Spirit. Get baptized it's a must, to enter into God's kingdom

@@jaws5204You twisted John 3:5 by ignoring verse 6. Verse 6 uses parallelism to explain that born of water refers to the waters of physical birth. You also ignore the historical context. Jesus was speaking to a Jew. Jews had neither commandment nor tradition of baptism as a right of conversion. Their entry ceremony was circumcision. Water baptism was for those who had already converted. Romans exhaustively draws the line between grace through faith that saves and wages through works that cannot save. Galatians clarifies that works include ceremonies. Baptism for salvation is Roman Catholic sacramentalism. If you think it’s needed to be saved, you aren’t saved yet.
Thank you Corey for this I've been using the thief on the cross to help people understand but you bought new light even to that scenario with him dying after Jesus. Thank you Lord for revelation
Mark 16:16 NIV [16] Whoever believes and is baptized will be saved, but whoever does not believe will be condemned. Nope, get baptized. The thief was on the cross with God beside him. You’re not. So go get baptized
Exactly how do you use the thief on the cross he "help" people: it seems to me that, since you have no idea whether the thief was baptized or not, you'd more likely confuse people.
@@jaws5204 Mark 16:16 15 And 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; but he that believeth not shall be damned. Corey, seems to ignore simple truths in scripture and complicate the simplicity in Christ with his quote unquote understanding of the Greek. If he would follow Jesus commandment to rightly divide the word of truth (2 Tim 2:15) he would see Jesus, John and the 12 preached the gospel of the Kingdom, which required water baptism. Those that were baptized with John baptism were saved. They didn't have the Holy Spirit yet, but were saved. Today for salvation, water baptism is not required, only faith, belief in the Gospel of Christ. Rom 1:16 16 For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek. Paul preached the gospel of Christ, not the gospel of the Kingdom, in fact Paul tells us Christ sent him NOT to baptize but to preach the gospel of Christ. 1 Cor 1:17 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. When you follow Jesus commandment to divide the word of truth, you understand the gospel of the Kingdom to Israel required water baptism. The gospel of Christ did not require water baptism only belief, faith in the finish work of Jesus on the Cross!
@brendanjobe6895 the Thief is probably the best example because we know those men died because their legs were broken to speed up their deaths so they could not breathe with help of their legs. Finally jesus legs was not broken for he was already dead that in scriptures JOHN 19:33
”He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned.“ Mark 16:16 KJV Notice the word baptized is not in the latter part of the sentence.
If so, then it would be works. Ephesians 2:8 -9 clearly states that. Say by Grace through Faith alone. Roman chapter 4. Abraham believed God, and it was counted into him for righteousness. He did absolutely nothing. All he had to do was believe.
To believe God you have to believe his word. And baptism is a must John 3:5 NIV [5] Jesus answered, “Very truly I tell you, no one can enter the kingdom of God unless they are born of water and the Spirit. Acts 22:16 NIV [16] And now what are you waiting for? Get up, be baptized and wash your sins away, calling on his name.’
1 Peter 3:21 seems to say baptism saves.. i feel that God does work in baptism water and cleanses us and provides us with grace . I used to hold to a symbolic view only but it doesnt seem that way when you read scripture and the early church writings
That very scripture is telling us that baptism is symbolic. The term “the like figure” tells us that baptism is a “figure” likened to us being saved in the ark (Jesus), from the water (the grave).
This great video talks about whether water baptism is necessary for salvation. The speaker argues that it is not necessary for salvation, and that faith in Jesus Christ is what saves a person. The speaker provides several arguments to support his claim. First, he points out that there is no command in Greek to get baptized. Second, he argues that the Bible mentions several examples of people who were saved without being baptized, such as the thief on the cross. Third, he points out that Paul says in 1 Corinthians 12:13 that the identifying marker of every believer is the Holy Spirit, not baptism. The speaker also addresses the argument that Jesus was baptized. He says that Jesus was baptized to fulfill all righteousness, and that his baptism was not the same as the baptism that is required for salvation. In conclusion, the speaker argues that water baptism is not necessary for salvation. He says that faith in Jesus Christ is what saves a person, and that baptism is simply an outward expression of that faith.
Cory: what is the difference when Jesus tells his disciples to go into all the world and teach all nations vs commanding the discipline to go into all the nations and teach?? What’s the difference??
The words πορευθέντες and βαπτίζοντες in this context, even though they are sort of participles, still constitute commands. To make it as plain as possible, Ιn Greek a participle can be used instead of a direct command as part of the sentence in context, ie Πορευθέντες αγοράστε φρούτα - "As you go buy fruit" but in reality "Go buy fruit". The direct command is the "buy" but πορευθέντες is also part of that command as it suggests that it's imperative one will go, a fact. Bαπτίζοντες has one more aspect to it as it is dependant on the μαθητεύσατε, ie its meaning is not "as you baptise" but plain "baptise" denoting to a repetitive action: "On the way baptise". The translation of plain "Go" instead of "As you go" is correct. Any Greek would consider the whole sentence a command including the "As you go" and "baptise" parts. However I agree with you that water baptism is not necessary for salvation.
The question I would ask is how do you become a disciple??? Because to become a disciple of Christ there has to be steps. Which was explained in Matthew 28:16-20
what does this mean ? ”he saved us, not because of works done by us in righteousness, but according to his own mercy, by the washing of regeneration and renewal of the Holy Spirit,“ Titus 3:5
”For Christ also hath once suffered for sins, the just for the unjust, that he might bring us to God, being put to death in the flesh, but quickened by the Spirit: by which also he went and preached unto the spirits in prison; which sometime were disobedient, when once the longsuffering of God waited in the days of Noah, while the ark was a preparing, wherein few, that is, 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: who is gone into heaven, and is on the right hand of God; angels and authorities and powers being made subject unto him.“ 1 Peter 3:18-22 KJV ”In whom ye also trusted, after that ye heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation: in whom also after that ye believed, ye were sealed with that holy Spirit of promise, which is the earnest of our inheritance until the redemption of the purchased possession, unto the praise of his glory.“ Ephesians 1:13-14 KJV Joel 2:28-29, Acts 2, Isaiah 47:3-4

Several months ago I discovered that some of our favorite TH-cam Bible teachers and influencers hold to baptismal regeneration (they're all Lutherans). What I find incredible is they didn't make that a key point of their online gospel proclamations! One would assume that if you believed that salvation hinged on water baptism you would make that a central point of your message!
New testament salvation started in the book of Acts. All those who were saved were baptized in water in the name Jesus Christ. God gave a command not a suggestion. If your saving/salvation is not found in Acts, especially in 2:38, then maybe one is not saved. The formula for salvation is in Acts 2:38.
this is Israel (acts 2:38 ) not the body of Christ , the body of christ was a mystery hid in God kept secret since the beginning of the world , revealed to and through Paul after his conversion in acts 9 ! our formula for salvation in the body is found here 1 Corinthians 15:1-4 + Ephesians 2:8-9 , trust the death burial and resurrection of Christ Jesus apart from ourselves! no water required in the body we receive the spirit by faith then the Spirit Baptises us into the body of Christ , Ephesians 1:13 In whom ye also trusted, after that ye heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation: in whom also after that ye believed, ye were sealed with that holy Spirit of promise, we hear Paul's Gospel we believe it ,we receive and are sealed with the holy spirit , then the spirit Baptises us into the body ( 1 Corinthians12:13 ) thats not what was going on for the jews in acts 2 they repented got water baptized then received the spirit , and were not baptized by the spirit into the body the body wasnt revealed until Paul's conversion acts 9 +
I only believe in baptism being an outward action of an inward transformation. And is used to show you are a new person in Christ. But, i struggle with the belief baptism being part of your salvation and is necessary to be saved, is a secondary issue or first. Reason being, I enjoy Chris Roseburoughs teaching. Yet he is a Lutheran and believes baptism is necessary to be saved. And last year there was a huge division between Sean from Revealing Truth, Steve Kozar, Daniel Long on this issue. And it turned quite ugly. And towards the end of it Chris got involved. And i had to pray about wether or not i should continue to watch his channel. So i guess i am wondering if it should be a secondary or first issue?
@@BibleTruthChannel it’s a long story. Water baptism was a proselyte process. The Pharisees didn’t think he was from Judah. They thought he was from Samaria.
@@aletheia8054 so you’re saying that when Jesus used the term “fulfillment of all righteousness” to John the Baptist, He said it because He was going to appease the Pharisees?
Jesus said (Mark 16:16) Anyone who believes and is "baptized" will be *SAVED* . BUT anyone who refuses to believe will be condemned. Jesus said (John 3:5) "I assure you, *NO ONE* can enter the Kingdom of God without being born of *WATER* and the *Spirit* . The scriptures *1 John 5: 1-8* tells us that the *Spirit, The Water, and the Blood* are in an agreement. *Galatians 3:27* says For All of who have been *united with Christ in baptism* have put on Christ, like putting on new clothes. *Romans 6:3* Or have you forgotten that when we were *joined with Christ Jesus in baptism* , we joined him in his death. These are just a few scriptures. There are way too many to list. Baptizo, Baptisma and Baptismos are all the Greek words in several scriptures that refer to a Water Washing Baptism.
Water baptism does not save. But a true convert and a new believer I would encourage to be baptized. Lord Jesus saves. If baptism saved then those who were baptized unto Moses at the Red Sea would’ve all been saved. If baptism saved you then that would mean you couldn’t lose your salvation. Lord Jesus explained he or she that endures to the end shall be saved.
If anyone add anything to trusting in Jesus for salvation…. That’s so plain that’s something that God will never budge on That’s what the Judaizers were up to trying to get Paul’s converse telling them they have to be circumcised If you’re telling someone they have to be baptized as a part of their salvation, the promise of eternity with Jesus!
@@gabrielcarrasco602 if its not a requirement for salvation then it doesnt matter the circumstance. If you think you should get baptized which i believe we should especially if the opportunity presents itself, then go ahead. But to think people will get sent to hell who have true faith in the Lord because they werent water baptized is wrong. We are justified through our faith in him alone.
@@ark-777 my question is not bout salvation.. what about believers who don't get baptize cause they don't believe in it, but they have plenty of opportunities and are able.. that's my question.
Baptism is called the washing of regeneration and renewal by the Holy Spirit, for it signifies and actually brings about the birth of water and the Holy Spirit without which no one can enter the Kingdom of God. ( Titus 3:5. John 3:5 ) By Baptism all sins are forgiven, original sin and all personal sins as well as all punishment for sin, After Baptism any sins committed have to be forgiven and absolved. People who desire to be baptised, but through no fault of their own, are unable to be Then they are Baptised without being a Sacrament. The Church has always held the firm conviction that those who suffer death for the sake of the faith without having received Baptism are baptised by their death for and with Christ This Baptism of blood brings about the fruits of Baptism without being a sacrament
I don't understand how you can say that there is no command in the greek to be baptized. Matthew 28:18-20 - "baptizing" is joined with the command to make disciples. It is conjugated in the plural. Biblically, it is Jesus (singular) that baptizes us in the Holy Ghost. The plural subject refers to the audience... the disciples. To assert that he is implying another plural subject is to read something into the text that is not there. Acts 2:28 - "Repent and be baptized" Be baptized is passive because one does not baptize himself, however it is joined with the imperative "repent" and is to be treated as a command. Acts 10:48 - "And he commanded them to be baptized in the name of the Lord" here we see that be baptized (passive) is paired with the command to do so. Acts 22:16 - "arise, and be baptized" This form of "be baptized" is actually imperative in the greek. You are correct in stating that salvation is not through water baptism, but some of your logic seems like you are trying to make distinctions that are not really there.
Its a part of Salvation just believing it fullfilles all righteousness remember when Philip preached the word to Samaritans andbthey receive the word of God Acts 8 : 12 --16

Those who argue baptism saves say the baptizing with water is done by God, that's why baptism is not a work, but a promise. Kongsvinger recently posted a Sunday school session on water baptism, could you rebut the arguments by pastor Chris?
Also kjv: 1st peter 3:21 baptism doth also now save us etc; also St. John 3:5 a man has to be born of the water and spirit to enter into the kingdom of God!
So Cory are you indicating that Jesus did not mean for his disciples to go and teach all nations?? Because Jesus told his disciples to teach and baptize.are you suggesting that Jesus did not mean for his disciples to teach as well?? Or does the other book that you read give a different meaning to what Jesus instructed his disciples to carry out!

Here it shows Jesus receives the Holy Spirit after baptism - MATT 3:16 After being baptized, Jesus came up immediately from the water; and behold, the heavens were opened, and he saw the Spirit of God descending as a dove and lighting on Him MARK 1:9-10 In those days Jesus came from Nazareth in Galilee and was baptized by John in the Jordan. 10 Immediately coming up out of the water, He saw the heavens opening, and the Spirit like a dove descending upon Him
The holy spirit fell on the gentiles before even baptism , He didn't evem wait for thier confession prayer but as they listened to peter speaking of christ the Spirit fell on them and they spake in other tongues Acts 10:44
water baptism was commanded according to the scriptures. It IS IMPORTANT according to the scriptures. But it does not save you. It is a symbol of something significant just like communion and feet washing (which we were commanded to do, but not for receiving salvation). It is encouraged to obey God even though that’s not what initiates salvation, obeying God keeps you in right relationship with him. We do well to obey his word, and not downplay water baptism. That would be akin to downplaying communion. Is it needed for salvation if you can’t do it? No. But if you read and understand that Jesus is saying to do it, it would be dangerous for you to just reject the commandment of the Lord.
Hi Corey. I've been concerned about my salvation as one born as a Catholic and baptized close to my birth. I was worried that I wasn't saved as I hadn't done a water baptism on the day I repented of my sins. This has been a matter on my mind for a while, and I thought that baptism was necessary because of John 3:5, where Jesus says that we need to be born of water and the Spirit. Thus I thought that there needs to be both water and Spirit baptisms. Not to mention that Jesus' disciples baptized with water as well, and Philip baptized the eunuch as well. But I would be torn because of what John the Baptist said of Jesus, that He would baptize with the Spirit and with fire. Then I'd just get dizzy from the confusion...
@@real8342I believe in Jesus’s Lordship, His coming in the flesh, His suffering for the forgiveness of our sins upon the cross, and His resurrection after 3 days for our hope of eternal life. And I believe that I’ve been baptized in the Holy Spirit.
The scriptures are clear if we just read the scriptures and let the word of God inform us. Thanks Corey for this clear explanation of the difference between the two (water baptism and baptism of the Holy Spirit).
Your argument doesn’t really dispute the Lutheran view of baptism. It is necessary to get baptized but not absolutely necessary… as in, you won’t go to hell if for some reason you couldn’t be baptized. 1 Cor 10:1-2 Paul is connecting Moses to baptism which doesn’t make sense if you are trying make a symbolic comparison to salvation considering Moses and his people were literally saved. They were not saved by anything they did, but rather because they were represented by God’s representative, Moses. Just like how Christians who are baptized are saved because our representative is Christ. There are also verses where baptism is connected to the LITERAL saving of Noah and his family from the flood. As for 1 Peter 3:21 - yes, the washing of dirt does not make us clean from the water, but rather when our sin is forgiven and we are saved, we have a clean conscience. It makes no sense for Peter to say that “baptism now saves you” if he didn’t want to communicate that very point lol
It is amazing how you are right about the word "AND" in Acts 2:38 while all the translations got it wrong. Again, the thief was forgiven before Jesus died. And he died long before the Great Commission in which believers are required to be bsptized for the forgiveness of their sins (Acts 2:38; 22:16; Mk. 16:15-16). You and I are under the Great Commission. The thief was not. Therefore baptism in the name of Jesus didnt apply to him or anyone else who died before Christ gave the Great Commission. And Acts 2:38 is a command to submit to baptism not only because it is in the imperative, but because you dont baptize yourself. Somebody else is doing it (Mt. 28:18-20). Also , Acts 2:38 is water (cf, Acts 10:47-48).
this is all cleared up with rightly dividing what's commanded of Israel and what's commanded of the body of Christ revealed to and through Paul after his conversion! acts 2:38 is to the Israelites that just murdered their messiah, our baptism in the body is revealed here Ephesians1:13 In whom ye also trusted, after that ye heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation: in whom also after that ye believed, ye were sealed with that holy Spirit of promise, 14Which is the earnest of our inheritance until the redemption of the purchased possession, unto the praise of his glory. we hear Paul's Gospel we believe it we recieve and are sealed with the holy spirit ! then the spirit baptizes us into the 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. Ephesians 4:5 One Lord, one faith, one baptism, the one baptism for the body of christ is after we believe the spirit baptizes us into the body its not the Jewish water baptism , its not the outpouring.
@@bwoods22wf That's correct, Jesus had the authority to forgive sins while on earth. But now that He has gone back into heaven we are under the Great Commission to believe the gospel, repent, confess Him, and be baptized for the forgiveness of sins (Mk. 16:16; Lk. 13:3; 24:46-47; Mt. 10:32-33; Acts 2:38).
@@aidanmcmanus2752 this is for Israel!! the body of Christ and the gospel of grace was revealed through Paul this is the kingdom/circumcision gospel not the gospel of the grace of God/ uncircumcision, Paul was given new revelation from Christ the others didn't know teach or preach after he was converted in acts 9 Ephesians3:1-6 For this cause I Paul, the prisoner of Jesus Christ for you Gentiles, 2If ye have heard of the dispensation of the grace of God which is given me to you-ward: 3How that by revelation he made known unto me the mystery; (as I wrote afore in few words, 4Whereby, when ye read, ye may understand my knowledge in the mystery of Christ) 5Which in other ages was not made known unto the sons of men, as it is now revealed unto his holy apostles and prophets by the Spirit; 6That the Gentiles should be fellowheirs, and of the same body, and partakers of his promise in Christ by the gospel: Ephesians 3:9 And to make all men see what is the fellowship of the mystery, which from the beginning of the world hath been hid in God, who created all things by Jesus Christ: Romans 16:25 Now to him that is of power to stablish you according to my gospel, and the preaching of Jesus Christ, according to the revelation of the mystery, which was kept secret since the world began, Galatians 2:7-9 But contrariwise, when they saw that the gospel of the uncircumcision was committed unto me, as the gospel of the circumcision was unto Peter; 8(For he that wrought effectually in Peter to the apostleship of the circumcision, the same was mighty in me toward the Gentiles:) 9And when James, Cephas, and John, who seemed to be pillars, perceived the grace that was given unto me, they gave to me and Barnabas the right hands of fellowship; that we should go unto the heathen, and they unto the circumcision.
@@marktravis5162 Thanks. I just checked Strong's Exhaustive Greek and Hebrew Concordance. It said the number there is 4442. It is a noun that means "lightning and all-consuming" fire. So Jesus will immerse people with God and(or) Hell. All judgment has been given to Jesus. For sure, they are not the same word. Like Corey says, words mean things.
@@orangeandslinky Exactly like Jesus also said they all will be salted with fire, John the Baptist had the natural baptism showing what Jesus does through the spirit

Mark 16:16 16 Whoever believes and is baptized will be saved, but whoever does not believe will be condemned....True believers who obey the Gospel of Jesus Christ will get bathized. Don't fight water bathism.
Can you point to the scripture to support your claim.? Not that it matters because JESUS have the authority to save anyone anywhere anytime regardless of their situation.
Jesus said in Luke 24:47 " Remission of sins to be preached in my name would begin in Jerusalem.." and this happens in Acts 2. Peter preaches the first gospel sermon and in v37 they asked, " What must we do"? and Peter tells them to repent and be baptized in the name of Jesus for the forgiveness of your sins....". We know this is water baptism by reading Acts 10:47-48 , Peter says, " Can any one forbid water for baptizing these people... v48 " and he COMMANDED them to be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ". So, baptism in the name of Jesus is water baptism and it is for the remission of sins. It goes on to say in Acts 2 that those who received the word and were baptized, that the Lord added them to the saved, v41 & v47. In Acts 2 only the apostles received the HS baptism, not the 3000 who were baptized in water. In Acts 10:33 it says, " Now therefore we are all in the present in the sight of God, to hear all that you have BEEN COMMANDED BY THE LORD". And in v 48 it says, " AND HE COMMANDED THEM to be baptized in the name of Jesus...", so water baptism was commanded by the Lord. In Acts 8, Philip and the Eunuch, it says in v35 that Philip preached about the good new of Jesus....and as they went along ......the Eunuch said, " Here is water! what prevents me from being baptized....", so how did the Eunuch know about water baptism? when it says Philip preached Jesus to him? and also the Eunuch was not baptized in the HS. In Acts 22:10 Paul ask " What shall I do Lord?" and the Lord said " Go into Damascus and there you will be told...." and Paul was told in v16 " Arise and be baptized, and wash away your sins, calling on his name"....so, where was Paul baptized in the HS? In 1 Cor 1:12-13 we see that in order to BELONG TO CHRIST, you must be baptized in the name of Jesus. Paul says to them, " some say, I BELONG to Paul, or I belong to Apollos, or I belong to Cephas, or I belong to Christ. Is Christ divided? Was Paul crucified for you? or were you baptized in the name of Paul? What about Cephas? Apollos? No, they were not crucified for you, nor were you baptized into their name, so YOU DO NOT BELONG TO THEM. But what about Jesus? Yes he was crucified for me and yes I WAS BAPTIZED IN HIS NAME, so I BELONG TO HIM. Baptism in his name is water baptism, Acts 10:47-48...so I must be baptized in his name to BELONG TO HIM. Lastly, water baptism is a command by the Lord and Jesus said, "if you love me you will keep my commandments.........
The thief on the cross, whom is probably even this day with Christ in paradise, the only man we know of that promise was made too. In truth I tell you this day you shall be with me in paradise. No water given them that day but gall and vinegar.
Lord Jesus Christ who is God the Father in flesh, said in st John 3, that if a person is not born of water baptism and Spirit baptism they can't enter or see the kingdom of God. Who am I to question God, who also left us an example. Amen
Yes Acts 2-38, you don't get a headache to take an aspirin, you take an aspirin for the headache. Where was the forgiveness of sins, At the cross of JESUS CHRIST or at someone's baptism?
@@ocieltrejo9059 so what you are saying is JESUS wasn't enough for you? Your adding to the GOSPEL Galatians 1 6-9. Let me know if you can obey Matthew 5-48..... Let me know if you need anymore help!!
Heb 6:1-2 shows a list of the ‘foundational principles of the doctrine of Christ.’ 1 Therefore leaving the principles of the doctrine of Christ, let us go on unto perfection; not laying again the foundation of repentance from dead works, and of faith toward God, 2 Of THE DOCTRINE OF BAPTISMS, and of laying on of hands, and of resurrection of the dead, and of eternal judgment. We clearly see baptism listed a one of the foundational principles of the doctrine of Christ. Notice that it is listed as plural, baptism(s). In Ephesians we read that there is one baptism: Eph 4:5-6 5 One Lord, one faith, one baptism, 6 One God and Father of all, who is above all, and through all, and in you all But taking the whole of scripture into account we also see that there are two aspects of this baptism. Water & Spirit. Jn 3:5 5 Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God. Acts 10:47 47 Can any man forbid water, that these should not be baptized, which have received the Holy Ghost as well as we? and in exampled by “type and shadow” in 1 Cor 10:1-2 1 Moreover, brethren, I would not that ye should be ignorant, how that all our fathers were under the cloud, and all passed through the sea; 2 And were all baptized unto Moses in the cloud and in the sea We also see that after the command to repent and be baptized(in water) was given, the church continued in the doctrine preached by the apostles. Acts 2:42 42 And they continued stedfastly in the apostles' doctrine and fellowship, and in breaking of bread, and in prayers. Lastly Paul warns in 2 Tim 3:1-7 1 This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come. 2 For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, 3 Without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good, 4 Traitors, heady, highminded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God; 5 HAVING A FORM OF GODLINESS, BUT DENYING THE POWER THEREOF: FROM SUCH TURN AWAY. 6 For of this sort are they which creep into houses, and lead captive silly women laden with sins, led away with divers lusts, 7 EVER LEARNING, AND NEVER ABLE TO COME TO THE KNOWLEDGE OF THE TRUTH. Beware of anyone teaching to forsake the foundational principles.
Question about your quote of Acts 10:47, why would you quote that to try to prove your argument.. “Those who have received the Holy Ghost as well as we?” They received the Holy Ghost preceding baptism.. Being Born of God, Born again is how we know we are saved.. 1 John 5:1. What true christian would deny an ordinance or obedience to Christ? We aren’t saved by the water, we are saved by the Spirit. Baptism is a ceremony.. was Abraham saved because of circumcision? No, he was deemed righteous by faith, Genesis 15:6. True faith produces good works, sure, but you saved by your faith. No one is arguing the importance of baptism, but to say it’s a requirement for salvation is teaching faith + something and you are teaching that the finished work the cross isn’t enough for you to be saved, taking away from what Christ did for all of us.
@@BrandtRowland Acts 10:47 shows the necessity of both. As confirmed in Acts 11:16-17 16 Then remembered I the word of the Lord, how that he said, John indeed baptized with water; but ye shall be baptized with the Holy Ghost. 17 Forasmuch then as God gave them the like gift as he did unto us, who believed on the Lord Jesus Christ; what was I, that I could withstand God? To deny water would be to “withstand God”. Water baptism is not an outward show for men but it is obedience and faith towards God. ---- There is only one place in scripture that says “faith” “alone” and that is James 2. That ‘belief’ and “understanding” of faith alone is the continued fulfillment of what people have been doing with Paul’s writings since the Bible days. It’s actually frightening to witness. 2 Pet 3:16 16 As also in all his epistles, speaking in them of these things; in which are some things hard to be understood, which they that are unlearned and unstable wrest, as they do also the other scriptures, unto their own destruction. To take what Paul said about “saved by grace” in Ephesians, that was addressed to people that had already OBEYED the gospel by believing and being baptized(in water) and receiving the Holy Spirit(Acts 19) to say that any of those things were NOT necessary because he afterwards wrote “grace alone” is one of the clearest examples of “wresting/twisting” Paul’s letters to destructive ends. ---- Does faith in Christ mean to only believe who He is and what He did? Or is Faith in Him also believing and obeying what He said? Jn 3:5 Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God. Do you believe what Jesus said?
I mean faith and obeying a command is faith + something and we are told in scripture we are justified by faith? In the beginning of your message you stated the difference between the two, Water and Spirit. With that logic which one saves? You completely rip John 3:5 out of context and fail to see its a reference to Ezekiel 35:25 where Spirit and water are tied together, as well as John 4:14 and countless other passages inferencing Spirit and Water as one thing, why would Jesus have rebuked Nicodemus for being a teacher of Israel and not knowing something that wasn’t even in play yet? That makes 0 sense, if you look at it with no preconceived notion is pretty obvious.. Nicodemus was a Jew, he knew the old testament and should have been expecting this to come to pass. To even say this is a reference to water baptism is mind boggling to me. May I also add, why would a true professing Christian with true saving faith deny getting baptized? He wouldn’t.. he’s saved already prior to the ceremony. Was Abraham counted righteous by faith or by circumcision? and if your argument is old testament why would Paul reference it? How about 1 John 5:1 or 1 John 5:10? Seems to me being born again is from believing? Not from water baptism. What about Romans 4:28, and Romans 4:5? Well is his faith counted for righteousness, or is it not? What about 1 Corinthians 12:13? or Philippians 3:9? I am not saying you shouldn’t be baptized.. but to say you are counted righteous when you get baptized in water is teaching contradictory the Word.. and if you say no it’s not, then why do so many verses contradict what you think?

@@misfitking_0143Jesus unsealed the book by dying and now reigning in heaven on the throne releasing the Seven Spirits of God into the earth. The opening of the seals gives wisdom and knowledge to those who believe the gospel and are sealed, goes back to Numbers 12, Job 33, Jeremiah 33 and Revelation 21. ”And I saw in the right hand of him that sat on the throne a book written within and on the backside, sealed with seven seals. And I saw a strong angel proclaiming with a loud voice, Who is worthy to open the book, and to loose the seals thereof? And no man in heaven, nor in earth, neither under the earth, was able to open the book, neither to look thereon. And I wept much, because no man was found worthy to open and to read the book, neither to look thereon. And one of the elders saith unto me, Weep not: behold, the Lion of the tribe of Juda, the Root of David, hath prevailed to open the book, and to loose the seven seals thereof. And I beheld, and, lo, in the midst of the throne and of the four beasts, and in the midst of the elders, stood a Lamb as it had been slain, having seven horns and seven eyes, which are the seven Spirits of God sent forth into all the earth. And he came and took the book out of the right hand of him that sat upon the throne.“ Revelation 5:1-7 KJV
Uh you forgot a verse John 3:5 NIV [5] Jesus answered, “Very truly I tell you, no one can enter the kingdom of God unless they are born of water and the Spirit. Water baptism is a must, its what washes away all of our sins Acts 22:16 NIV [16] And now what are you waiting for? Get up, be baptized and wash your sins away, calling on his name.’ Mark 16:16 NIV [16] Whoever believes and is baptized will be saved, but whoever does not believe will be condemned. Baptism is a must, to say you believe but not be baptized you are not saved, to believe in Chirst is to believe in his word, and the bible says me must be baptized. Please pray to God for revelation before you make a video like this. This is what discourage people from getting baptized
your not dividing that which was for Israel and what's for the body of christ revealed to and through Paul after acts 9 there's one baptism in the body of Christ and that's when the spirit baptizes us into the body of Christ not water baptism that was for Israelites before the body was revealed! Ephesians 4:5 One Lord, one faith, one baptism, Ephesians 1:13- 14 In whom ye also trusted, after that ye heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation: in whom also after that ye believed, ye were sealed with that holy Spirit of promise, Which is the earnest of our inheritance until the redemption of the purchased possession, unto the praise of his glory. we hear Paul's gospel; we believe it, then we receive and are sealed with the holy spirit , then the spirit Baptises us into the body , no water! no outpouring! but by faith in Christ and what he did on the cross , the body of Christ wasn't revealed until after Paul's conversion in acts 9 before acts 9 its not the body but the nation of Israel only !!! they (Israel) had to be water baptized ( acts 2:38) the body of Christ is baptized ''by'' the spirit into the body different baptisms ! 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.
NOT ONE COMMAND YOU SAY Jn 20:21, "As the Father has sent Me, I also send you." Jn 17:18, "Even as thou hast sent Me into the world, so I have sent them into the world." Jn 17:22-23, "And the glory that thou hast given Me, I have given to Matt. 28, 18-20: And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth. Go ye, therefore. and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever 😘😘I have commanded you: and lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world. Amen. Is necessary for salvation. John 3:5 - "No one can enter the kingdom of God without being born of water and Spirit" Mark 16:16 - "Whoever believes and is baptized will be saved" Acts 16:30, 33 - "what must I do to be saved? ... he and all his family were baptized" 1 Peter 3:21 - "baptism which saves you now." See also: - Matthew 28:19, Acts 2:38, Acts 16:15 Mark 16:16 - Jesus says to the crowd, "He who believes and is baptized will be saved." But in reference to the same people, Jesus immediately follows with "He who does not believe will be condemned." This demonstrates that one can be baptized and still not be a believer. This disproves the Protestant argument that one must be a believer to be baptized. There is nothing in the Bible about a "believer's baptism."
@11:26 "the thief on the cross died after Jesus's death" -What scripture states that? @13:28 "to be baptized and it also requires somebody else's work" -How is that a point?

They have received the Holy Spirit just as we have.” So he ordered that they be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ. Acts 9:17-18 Then Ananias went to the house and entered it. Placing his hands on Saul, he said, “Brother Saul, the Lord-Jesus, who appeared to you on the road as you were coming here-has sent me so that you may see again and be filled with the Holy Spirit." Immediately, something like scales fell from Saul’s eyes, and he could see again. He got up and was baptized... Acts 22:12-16 “A man named Ananias came to see me. He was a devout observer of the law and highly respected by all the Jews living there. He stood beside me and said, ‘Brother Saul, receive your sight!’ And at that very moment I was able to see him. “Then he said: ‘The God of our ancestors has chosen you to know his will and to see the Righteous One and to hear words from his mouth. You will be his witness to all people of what you have seen and heard. And now what are you waiting for? Get up, be baptized and wash your sins away, calling on his name.’ @18:46 "there were a lot of people that were baptized in water who are not saved" -What Scriptures? An example I can think of is the people of Samaria who were baptized by the Holy Spirit through the apostles but we're baptized in water first and didn't receive the spirit. God had the ability to baptize people with the Holy Spirit through the apostles and use that ability whenever he wanted. @20:14 "the reason why Jesus was baptized was clearly not the reason why anyone else would be baptized" @19:54 "that everything will be fulfilled" -Matthew 3:15 Jesus replied, “Let it be so now; it is proper for us to do this to fulfill all righteousness.” Then John consented.

so how do we harmonize mathew 28:19 go therefore and make deciple of "all nation" baptizing them........... early church father explain and understand there are ppl that may not have a lake or ocean nearby. they explain they can use sprinkling of water to baptize. my thing is if ur healthy, why not go ahead and get baptize. Jesus said if u love me, obey my commandment. i just think we make an excuse and have a lazy spirit making excuse why we cant get baptize. its like far left liberals thats talks the talk but have no action.
So explain Jesus Christ own words : ”Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God. That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit. The wind bloweth where it listeth, and thou hearest the sound thereof, but canst not tell whence it cometh, and whither it goeth: so is every one that is born of the Spirit.“ John 3:5-6, 8 KJV
This question is pretty old. Why is it still being asked? There are wonderful examples in the scripture that clearly answer this question. Brother Corey, will you kindly look at the Etheopian Eunice in light of this question? Also, our Lord's baptism. Thank you!
Cory the Bible in Matthew 28:19; did not say for his disciples to go into all nations and make disciples. Kjv: it says to go and teach all nations ; if they accept the teachings of the apostles and do them they will automatically be disciples. Cory you need to read from the Bible; you are reading from what’s called the Bible,but it’s not a Bible.revelation 22:18 -19 ; you can’t even change one word of the true scriptures! And the book you’re reading from has different words, from the actual scriptures thus rendering it not the true scriptures!!
@@NothingButDaTru Blood baptism or baptism by fire. These are metaphors for Holy Spirit baptism. There’s only one baptism in the Bible and it’s not H20
My brother, that is a very very dangerous doctrine you are preaching. Baptism is for the remission of sin as spoken by our Lord Jesus, and his holy apostles. Yes you must be baptized.
So for all the “water immersion is unto salvation” people here How do you explain the thief on the cross What do you say of people who literally cannot be water baptized? It is either you must be for all or for none because god is no respect of persons he doesn’t show favoritism or partiality. And as a bonus you are misinterpreting Matthew born of water is literal actual birth out of your mothers womb and born of spirit is salvation which is why nicademus said “ I can’t go back into my mothers womb” Why do people make salvation so difficult? What can wash away my sin nothing but the blood of Jesus! What can make me whole again NOTHING but the blood of Jesus What was an atonement prior to the Christ? A slain lamb! His blood on the alter. Baptism in water is not unto salvation.
Jesus is the Lord. He can command anyone to be saved at any time! He did that with the thief! that does not mean His commands in the great commission are not commands to be followed! you are "eisegiting" your own interpretation into the scriptures! you set yourself up with those first stories of people who are ill, who are in jail etc... The Apostles followed Jesus's command by Baptizing those who were being saved! What must we do to be saved asked one. Peter told him to repent and!! be baptized act 2:38-41 Why would Peter an Apostle tell them this if it were not important? Rom 6:3-4. I do believe in those situations that make it impossible to be baptized Gods mercy will reign. Even so, for those of us Who can obey what Jesus Himself said to do and the Apostles and believers followed up and obeyed His imperative to Baptize believers! Jesus Himself was Baptized to "fulfill all righteousness" We as believers are to follow in His footsteps! Brother, you are terribly incorrect! What convinces me is the Great commission! Jesus Himself is commanding us in every part of that commission to do exactly as He says. No part of Jesus's words is a suggestion!
Again Cory I have to disagree with you. Baptism is a command from God. Besides which is more important to do what Jesus did which was he did get baptized not for the same reason as the rest of us but John did baptize Jesus. I rather not listen to a mere man telling me that water baptism is not necessary. Baptism is necessary to wash away sin. Sins that has to be forgiven by God. Jesus commanded the Apostles in Matthew 28:10, 20 to go out and and teach all nations and baptize in the name of the Father Son and Holy Spirit. Acts 2:38 confirms that water baptism is very necessay.
Mark 16:16 Luke 24:44-49 Acts Acts 2:38 is about water baptism absolutely Acts 8 ... and Evangelist Phillip and Eunuch Acts 10 Apostle Peter said Can any man forbid water? Acts 9 and 22 especially Apostle Paul his testimony he was to why wait arise be baptized for the remission of sins calling on the name of the Lord Yes GOD knows those who are in particular situations like being locked up ect ...Apostle doctrine GOD Bless Acts 22
Your analysis of these baptism passages is weighed in the balances and found wanting. Acts 2: 38 does not say "remission of your sins": check a KJV/interlinear. How do you know the thief on the cross was not ever baptized? Answer: you don't, just as I don't. If you think you do, give the passage. The thief on the cross was pronounced a saved man under the Old Covenant. You honestly sound more like a Baptist than a Christian.
What?????? How do we know he wasn’t water baptized? lol are you serious? Oh I’m sure the guards took him down and let him get in the sea or perhaps they poured water in his head? You’re implying the lord left this unavoidable point out of the text! Really?? To counter your ridiculous argument; how could Jesus tell him today you will be with me in paradise in response to his confession of the messiah??!! Give yourself a break he obviously wasn’t baptized which means you don’t need to be unto salvation.
NO NO wrong sir we see VERY clearly that Jesus was speaking ONLY to his disciples to carry on the work of establishing His church ! Only they were to recieve the baptizm of the Holy Spirit with it"s miraculous gifts O.K ? But when the last Apostle died so did the gifts they recieved of the Holy Spirit and cannot be applied to believers after that Water baptizm is NOT a work, but an act of OBEDIENCE , in order to recieve the remission of ones sins after having REPENTED !! Acts 2 38, 22 16 1Pet 3 21 Please STOP teaching this heresy and telling unbaptized people that they will be saved without REPENTING and getting Baptized because they will end up in Hell thnks to you !

Acts 10:47-48 King James Version (KJV)
Can any man forbid water, that these should not be baptized, which have received the Holy Ghost as well as we? And he commanded them to be baptized in the name of the Lord.
They are already saved, then commanded to be baptized. Read the next chapter, specifically Acts 11:15-17, where Peter never mentions his water baptism to the Jewish brethren. He mentions John the Baptist's water baptism, but then refers to what he remembers that the "word of the Lord "says about being "baptized in the Holy Spirit." Shalom...
We need to be careful of the message that we're sending to new converts, false converts, Catholics, and the like about this matter. If water baptism is not a big deal, why does the Lord emphasize it and set the example himself? To me it is a command, and we ought to obey it. Now I understand that there are people who may have difficulty complying with it. The Lord has already provided for this lack. In our capacity as teachers, let's proclaim the Gospel like it is, repentance, water baptism, and confession of the lordship of Jesus-Christ then the Lord himself will perform the baptism in the Holy spirit. Oftentimes, the elaborate discussion/analysis/reasoning/rationale around this issue as it relates to salvation creates too much confusion, and this could be harmful to many in the faith. Water baptism does not save, but it is an act of obedience/faith with profound spiritual significance and that should not be undermined. I'd encourage everybody who have the wherewithal to get baptized in water to do it without delay.
Perfectly said 👏 ❤
Nobody is saying it’s not a big deal. We are saying if you don’t get baptized you are not condemned to hell.
I like this comment. I think people on both sides of this issue within the church are making it more complicated than what it is. We need to believe, repent, and be baptized..period. I know we don’t need to be baptized to initiate or receive salvation, but Jesus did tell us to, and therefore it is important for us to be obedient to. I myself, and others I know were saved through belief and repentance before we were able to be baptized. God did a work in our hearts before we hit the water. We began to change our minds and actions in regards to sin and reverence to God. It’s like I would have to reject what God did in my heart/life to receive the opposite doctrine. I’m glad I understood what salvation was and the significance of baptism, before I was baptized.
The only issue I have with what you said is that how you stated this implies that we should repent, go through water baptism and confess the lordship of Christ THEN the Lord will perform the baptism in to the Holy Spirit. We are baptized into the Holy Spirit at the moment we truly believe THEN comes the water baptism. We should make every effort to be baptized in water AFTER we have put our trust in Christ's redemptive work, but it is not required to be saved.
Acts 22:16 - And now why tarriest thou? arise, and be baptized, and wash away thy sins, calling on the name of the Lord.
Please rewatch 4:00 to 6:00.
I was joyful about baptism but that was a luxury not everyone has.
Many people don’t understand that the water baptism in Jesus name is for the forgiveness of sin; without it there is no forgiveness of sin!!
Yes, calling on the name of the Lord is being baptized
The Book of Acts is Historical with the Emphasis on Jesus Christ the rejected Savior by the Jewish Generation that would perish at the Destruction of The Temple and Jerusalem in 70 AD. Matthew 23:34-36; Luke 19:41-44.
Peter tells the "House of Israel" to Repent (those who did) instantaneously were Born Again. Then comes Baptism. But read to verse 40 and you will see Peter then tells them to “Be saved from this perverse generation!” The new Believers, all from (the house of Israel) Acts 2:36, had to separate themselves from this generation that had crucified Jesus, in order to escape the coming judgement.
Also you will see the same action from Paul, who is told by Ananias saying; "And now why tarriest thou? arise, and be baptized, and wash away thy sins, calling on the name of the Lord" in Acts 22:16. No one can wash away their own sins.
Salvation is a free gift; Ephesians 2:5-10. And Jesus gives that Example clearly to "Doubting" Thomas in John 20:24-31. Shalom...

People who are hung up on water baptism being necessary in order to be saved are probably people who are relying on WORKS, and we know that our works CANNOT save us. It’s the Baptism of The Holy Spirit, that only The Lord can give, that saves us.
Hung up on water baptism ? why do you ignore the teachings of the scriptures reguarding repentance and Baptizm being required for ones salvation ! So Paul was wrong saying Acts 2 38 Repent AND be Baptized EVERY one of you to recieve the forgiveness of your sins !!

Thank you for posting this! Many Christians don’t agree on the difference between salvation and baptisms.
We are saved by Faith in Jesus Christ and if possible we get baptize as an act of obedience .
Baptism is a gift.
We are saved aka validated by faith aka believe aka following Christ example & principles for qualifying to be saved... if we are doing things outside his guidance we are in error!!!

Great Video.
A statement and 2 questions.
1. Water baptism can be availible anywhere depending on your view of mode. (Sprinkle vs. immersion)
2. How would respond to someone who holds to a second blessing understanding of Baptism in the spirit? They believe we are saved then at some other time receive the HS usually marked by speaking in tongues.
3. What are your thoughts on re-Baptism
So if you were an Israelite living during Moses time and you said to Moses circumcision is not necessary and only a public display, what would Moses say?
The beauty of Christ’s sacrifice is that faith in Christ saves us from the law of Moses. Moses may have wanted the one criminal on the cross to get baptized or circumcised but Jesus didn’t seem to mind, recognizing the man’s faith.
Where did you read anywhere in the Old Testament where they were promised heaven, only long life, death, wives, children, sheep, goats, kingdoms, kingdoms taken away etc.. The was not a permanent means of justification, no one could keep all of the commandments, breaking one made you guilty of them all. The remedy is God giving us a new heart not us changing ours. God giving us a new heart is how we are born from above (again) read Ezekiel 36:25-27 which is what Jesus was referring to when talking to Nicodemus
Amen🙏🙏🙏 Thank You Lord Jesus.

A lot of people in the comments don’t seem to know the difference between the baptism of the spirit and the outward expression of water baptism.
A pastor said it like this, when you finish all your credits you are considered a graduate (baptism of the spirit)
When you walk across the stage to get your diploma is the water baptism.
You were a graduate (saved) before walking across that stage
Most of the people can’t tell that’s why the scripture says there are a few that find it, people like their father Satan, like to be in control. They want it to be in control of their salvation and not God because they want control like Satan didn’t heaven and Eve in the garden
Interesting to say the least. For salvation today, water baptism is not required according to the word of God.
To be saved today, you only need to believe the "Gospel of Christ"
Rom 1:16
16 For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek.
What is the Gospel of Christ?
1 Cor 15: 3-4
3 For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures;
4 And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:
Jesus died on the cross for your sins, buried and rose the 3rd day! That the gospel of Christ!!!
There is only one baptism in this dispensation of grace and it's perform by God Himself!
Eph 4:5
5 One Lord, one faith, one baptism,
This one baptism is done by the operation of God!
Col 2: 12
12 Buried with him in baptism, wherein also ye are risen with him through the faith of the operation of God, who hath raised him from the dead.
So no stage, diploma or water needed.
It doesn't matter what the pastor said. We know Jesus Christ was baptized and he commanded his disciples to go out and baptize everyone...that's all we need to know.
@@hermansmikle6685 Did you hear why Jesus was baptized?
@hermansmikle6685
What you need to know is the right gospel for salvation.

The gospel of Christ is Jesus instructed Paul to preach. 1 Cor 1:17.
Jesus sent him not to baptize, but to preach the gospel.
AMEN!... Great teaching brother Corey 👏🏾👏👏🏾👏👏🏾👏
Take heed that no man deceive you.
I had a conversation with my grandma 2 weeks ago, cuz she's a catholic who believes that people who dont get baptize go to hell, so when I pulled up the bible and pointed to Acts : Acts 16:30-31 He then brought them out and asked, “Sirs, what must I do to be saved?” They replied, “Believe in the Lord Jesus, and you will be saved-you and your household.”
After I told showed her this and told her that baptism doesn't save, she yelled at me and said my bible wasn't creditable because the only creditable bible is the catholic one....
All I can do is pray for her.
from the new revised standard version - Catholic edition
30 Then he brought them outside and said, “Sirs, what must I do to be saved?” 31 They answered, “Believe on the Lord Jesus, and you will be saved, you and your household.”
from the new catholic bible: 30 Then he brought them outside and said, “Sirs, what must I do to be saved?” 31 They answered, “Believe in the Lord Jesus, and you will be saved, and so too will your household.”

@@jaws5204You twisted John 3:5 by ignoring verse 6. Verse 6 uses parallelism to explain that born of water refers to the waters of physical birth.
You also ignore the historical context. Jesus was speaking to a Jew. Jews had neither commandment nor tradition of baptism as a right of conversion. Their entry ceremony was circumcision. Water baptism was for those who had already converted.
Romans exhaustively draws the line between grace through faith that saves and wages through works that cannot save. Galatians clarifies that works include ceremonies.
Baptism for salvation is Roman Catholic sacramentalism. If you think it’s needed to be saved, you aren’t saved yet.
Praise God Corey!! 👏 ❤
Thank you Corey for this I've been using the thief on the cross to help people understand but you bought new light even to that scenario with him dying after Jesus. Thank you Lord for revelation
Technically it did not say. So it’s actually silent on that factor. Also Jesus was in the midst and has the authority to save.
Mark 16:16 NIV
[16] Whoever believes and is baptized will be saved, but whoever does not believe will be condemned.
Nope, get baptized. The thief was on the cross with God beside him. You’re not. So go get baptized
Exactly how do you use the thief on the cross he "help" people: it seems to me that, since you have no idea whether the thief was baptized or not, you'd more likely confuse people.

Mark 16:16
15 And 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; but he that believeth not shall be damned.
Corey, seems to ignore simple truths in scripture and complicate the simplicity in Christ with his quote unquote understanding of the Greek.
If he would follow Jesus commandment to rightly divide the word of truth (2 Tim 2:15) he would see Jesus, John and the 12 preached the gospel of the Kingdom, which required water baptism.
Those that were baptized with John baptism were saved. They didn't have the Holy Spirit yet, but were saved.
Today for salvation, water baptism is not required, only faith, belief in the Gospel of Christ.
Rom 1:16
16 For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek.
Paul preached the gospel of Christ, not the gospel of the Kingdom, in fact Paul tells us Christ sent him NOT to baptize but to preach the gospel of Christ.
1 Cor 1:17
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.
When you follow Jesus commandment to divide the word of truth, you understand the gospel of the Kingdom to Israel required water baptism.
The gospel of Christ did not require water baptism only belief, faith in the finish work of Jesus on the Cross!
@brendanjobe6895 the Thief is probably the best example because we know those men died because their legs were broken to speed up their deaths so they could not breathe with help of their legs. Finally jesus legs was not broken for he was already dead that in scriptures JOHN 19:33

If so, then it would be works. Ephesians 2:8 -9 clearly states that. Say by Grace through Faith alone. Roman chapter 4. Abraham believed God, and it was counted into him for righteousness. He did absolutely nothing. All he had to do was believe.
To believe God you have to believe his word. And baptism is a must

Wrong wrong wrong, Gen 17. Abraham was command to be circumcised n entire house. Moses almost killed cause did not circumcise his sons.
There are many verses in the Bible talk about baptism. So it's not like baptism doesn't matter. Enough said.
Nobody is saying this tho.

Symbolism alone, means nothing.
Baptism is to weddings; as union is to marriage.
1 Peter 3:21 seems to say baptism saves.. i feel that God does work in baptism water and cleanses us and provides us with grace . I used to hold to a symbolic view only but it doesnt seem that way when you read scripture and the early church writings
That very scripture is telling us that baptism is symbolic. The term “the like figure” tells us that baptism is a “figure” likened to us being saved in the ark (Jesus), from the water (the grave).
Good evening Corey I agree 100%
This great video talks about whether water baptism is necessary for salvation. The speaker argues that it is not necessary for salvation, and that faith in Jesus Christ is what saves a person.
The speaker provides several arguments to support his claim. First, he points out that there is no command in Greek to get baptized. Second, he argues that the Bible mentions several examples of people who were saved without being baptized, such as the thief on the cross. Third, he points out that Paul says in 1 Corinthians 12:13 that the identifying marker of every believer is the Holy Spirit, not baptism.
The speaker also addresses the argument that Jesus was baptized. He says that Jesus was baptized to fulfill all righteousness, and that his baptism was not the same as the baptism that is required for salvation.
In conclusion, the speaker argues that water baptism is not necessary for salvation. He says that faith in Jesus Christ is what saves a person, and that baptism is simply an outward expression of that faith.
Cory: what is the difference when Jesus tells his disciples to go into all the world and teach all nations vs commanding the discipline to go into all the nations and teach?? What’s the difference??
Sounds good. I think there also needs to be an understanding of the word baptism since it seems it mostly identified with water.
The question people need to ask is
Does spiritual regeneration start at the moment of faith or the moment of hitting the water ?
The moment of faith!
Before faith.
The words πορευθέντες and βαπτίζοντες in this context, even though they are sort of participles, still constitute commands. To make it as plain as possible, Ιn Greek a participle can be used instead of a direct command as part of the sentence in context, ie Πορευθέντες αγοράστε φρούτα - "As you go buy fruit" but in reality "Go buy fruit". The direct command is the "buy" but πορευθέντες is also part of that command as it suggests that it's imperative one will go, a fact. Bαπτίζοντες has one more aspect to it as it is dependant on the μαθητεύσατε, ie its meaning is not "as you baptise" but plain "baptise" denoting to a repetitive action: "On the way baptise". The translation of plain "Go" instead of "As you go" is correct. Any Greek would consider the whole sentence a command including the "As you go" and "baptise" parts. However I agree with you that water baptism is not necessary for salvation.
The question I would ask is how do you become a disciple??? Because to become a disciple of Christ there has to be steps. Which was explained in Matthew 28:16-20
Being born again is done by God not by man read Ezekiel 36 chapter 25th verse through the 27th that’s what he was telling Nicodemus
Amen
what does this mean ?
”he saved us, not because of works done by us in righteousness, but according to his own mercy, by the washing of regeneration and renewal of the Holy Spirit,“
Titus 3:5
”For Christ also hath once suffered for sins, the just for the unjust, that he might bring us to God, being put to death in the flesh, but quickened by the Spirit: by which also he went and preached unto the spirits in prison; which sometime were disobedient, when once the longsuffering of God waited in the days of Noah, while the ark was a preparing, wherein few, that is, 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: who is gone into heaven, and is on the right hand of God; angels and authorities and powers being made subject unto him.“

Several months ago I discovered that some of our favorite TH-cam Bible teachers and influencers hold to baptismal regeneration (they're all Lutherans). What I find incredible is they didn't make that a key point of their online gospel proclamations! One would assume that if you believed that salvation hinged on water baptism you would make that a central point of your message!
Just because people are in a certain way doesn’t mean that the word of God can be altered to conform to their situation.
New testament salvation started in the book of Acts. All those who were saved were baptized in water in the name Jesus Christ. God gave a command not a suggestion. If your saving/salvation is not found in Acts, especially in 2:38, then maybe one is not saved. The formula for salvation is in Acts 2:38.
this is Israel (acts 2:38 ) not the body of Christ , the body of christ was a mystery hid in God kept secret since the beginning of the world , revealed to and through Paul after his conversion in acts 9 ! our formula for salvation in the body is found here 1 Corinthians 15:1-4 + Ephesians 2:8-9 , trust the death burial and resurrection of Christ Jesus apart from ourselves! no water required in the body we receive the spirit by faith then the Spirit Baptises us into the body of Christ ,
Ephesians 1:13
In whom ye also trusted, after that ye heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation: in whom also after that ye believed, ye were sealed with that holy Spirit of promise,
we hear Paul's Gospel we believe it ,we receive and are sealed with the holy spirit , then the spirit Baptises us into the body ( 1 Corinthians12:13 ) thats not what was going on for the jews in acts 2 they repented got water baptized then received the spirit , and were not baptized by the spirit into the body the body wasnt revealed until Paul's conversion acts 9 +
KJV - Luke 20 : 4 KJV - Mark 11 : 30
I only believe in baptism being an outward action of an inward transformation. And is used to show you are a new person in Christ. But, i struggle with the belief baptism being part of your salvation and is necessary to be saved, is a secondary issue or first. Reason being, I enjoy Chris Roseburoughs teaching. Yet he is a Lutheran and believes baptism is necessary to be saved. And last year there was a huge division between Sean from Revealing Truth, Steve Kozar, Daniel Long on this issue. And it turned quite ugly. And towards the end of it Chris got involved. And i had to pray about wether or not i should continue to watch his channel. So i guess i am wondering if it should be a secondary or first issue?

Jesus said (Mark 16:16) Anyone who believes and is "baptized" will be *SAVED* . BUT anyone who refuses to believe will be condemned.
Jesus said (John 3:5) "I assure you, *NO ONE* can enter the Kingdom of God without being born of *WATER* and the *Spirit* .
The scriptures *1 John 5: 1-8* tells us that the *Spirit, The Water, and the Blood* are in an agreement.

Baptism is called the washing of regeneration and renewal by the Holy Spirit, for it signifies and actually brings about the birth of water and the Holy Spirit without which no one can enter the Kingdom of God. ( Titus 3:5. John 3:5 )
By Baptism all sins are forgiven, original sin and all personal sins as well as all punishment for sin,
After Baptism any sins committed have to be forgiven and absolved.
People who desire to be baptised, but through no fault of their own, are unable to be Then they are Baptised without being a Sacrament.
The Church has always held the firm conviction that those who suffer death for the sake of the faith without having received Baptism are baptised by their death for and with Christ This Baptism of blood brings about the fruits of Baptism without being a sacrament
I don't understand how you can say that there is no command in the greek to be baptized.
Matthew 28:18-20 - "baptizing" is joined with the command to make disciples. It is conjugated in the plural. Biblically, it is Jesus (singular) that baptizes us in the Holy Ghost. The plural subject refers to the audience... the disciples. To assert that he is implying another plural subject is to read something into the text that is not there.
Acts 2:28 - "Repent and be baptized" Be baptized is passive because one does not baptize himself, however it is joined with the imperative "repent" and is to be treated as a command.
Acts 10:48 - "And he commanded them to be baptized in the name of the Lord" here we see that be baptized (passive) is paired with the command to do so.
Acts 22:16 - "arise, and be baptized" This form of "be baptized" is actually imperative in the greek.
You are correct in stating that salvation is not through water baptism, but some of your logic seems like you are trying to make distinctions that are not really there.
Its a part of Salvation just believing it fullfilles all righteousness remember when Philip preached the word to Samaritans andbthey receive the word of God Acts 8 : 12 --16
1 Peter 3:
20. Which sometime were disobedient, when once the longsuffering of God waited in the days of Noah, while the ark was a preparing, wherein few, that is, eight souls were saved by water.
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
Those who argue baptism saves say the baptizing with water is done by God, that's why baptism is not a work, but a promise.
Kongsvinger recently posted a Sunday school session on water baptism, could you rebut the arguments by pastor Chris?

So Cory are you indicating that Jesus did not mean for his disciples to go and teach all nations?? Because Jesus told his disciples to teach and baptize.are you suggesting that Jesus did not mean for his disciples to teach as well?? Or does the other book that you read give a different meaning to what Jesus instructed his disciples to carry out!

Here it shows Jesus receives the Holy Spirit after baptism - MATT 3:16 After being baptized, Jesus came up immediately from the water; and behold, the heavens were opened, and he saw the Spirit of God descending as a dove and lighting on Him MARK 1:9-10 In those days Jesus came from Nazareth in Galilee and was baptized by John in the Jordan. 10 Immediately coming up out of the water, He saw the heavens opening, and the Spirit like a dove descending upon Him
The holy spirit fell on the gentiles before even baptism , He didn't evem wait for thier confession prayer but as they listened to peter speaking of christ the Spirit fell on them and they spake in other tongues
Acts 10:44
water baptism was commanded according to the scriptures. It IS IMPORTANT according to the scriptures. But it does not save you. It is a symbol of something significant just like communion and feet washing (which we were commanded to do, but not for receiving salvation). It is encouraged to obey God even though that’s not what initiates salvation, obeying God keeps you in right relationship with him. We do well to obey his word, and not downplay water baptism. That would be akin to downplaying communion. Is it needed for salvation if you can’t do it? No. But if you read and understand that Jesus is saying to do it, it would be dangerous for you to just reject the commandment of the Lord.
Hi Corey. I've been concerned about my salvation as one born as a Catholic and baptized close to my birth. I was worried that I wasn't saved as I hadn't done a water baptism on the day I repented of my sins. This has been a matter on my mind for a while, and I thought that baptism was necessary because of John 3:5, where Jesus says that we need to be born of water and the Spirit. Thus I thought that there needs to be both water and Spirit baptisms. Not to mention that Jesus' disciples baptized with water as well, and Philip baptized the eunuch as well. But I would be torn because of what John the Baptist said of Jesus, that He would baptize with the Spirit and with fire. Then I'd just get dizzy from the confusion...
Have you received the gift of the Holy Spirit after you believed the gospel of Jesus Christ,death,burial,and resurrection?
@JoseLopez-co7uhyes, that’s ok. Thank you.
@@real8342I believe in Jesus’s Lordship, His coming in the flesh, His suffering for the forgiveness of our sins upon the cross, and His resurrection after 3 days for our hope of eternal life. And I believe that I’ve been baptized in the Holy Spirit.
@@unworthyServant08 do you remember where the Holy Spirit fell on you at?
We are baptised with water and the Holy Spirit.
The scriptures are clear if we just read the scriptures and let the word of God inform us. Thanks Corey for this clear explanation of the difference between the two (water baptism and baptism of the Holy Spirit).
Your argument doesn’t really dispute the Lutheran view of baptism. It is necessary to get baptized but not absolutely necessary… as in, you won’t go to hell if for some reason you couldn’t be baptized. 1 Cor 10:1-2 Paul is connecting Moses to baptism which doesn’t make sense if you are trying make a symbolic comparison to salvation considering Moses and his people were literally saved. They were not saved by anything they did, but rather because they were represented by God’s representative, Moses. Just like how Christians who are baptized are saved because our representative is Christ. There are also verses where baptism is connected to the LITERAL saving of Noah and his family from the flood.
As for 1 Peter 3:21 - yes, the washing of dirt does not make us clean from the water, but rather when our sin is forgiven and we are saved, we have a clean conscience. It makes no sense for Peter to say that “baptism now saves you” if he didn’t want to communicate that very point lol
John 3:
5. Jesus answered, “Truly, truly, I say to you, unless someone is born of water and the Spirit, he cannot enter the kingdom of God.
Water baptism is just an act of obedience.
It is amazing how you are right about the word "AND" in Acts 2:38 while all the translations got it wrong.
Again, the thief was forgiven before Jesus died. And he died long before the Great Commission in which believers are required to be bsptized for the forgiveness of their sins (Acts 2:38; 22:16; Mk. 16:15-16). You and I are under the Great Commission. The thief was not. Therefore baptism in the name of Jesus didnt apply to him or anyone else who died before Christ gave the Great Commission.
And Acts 2:38 is a command to submit to baptism not only because it is in the imperative, but because you dont baptize yourself. Somebody else is doing it (Mt. 28:18-20). Also , Acts 2:38 is water (cf, Acts 10:47-48).
this is all cleared up with rightly dividing what's commanded of Israel and what's commanded of the body of Christ revealed to and through Paul after his conversion!
acts 2:38 is to the Israelites that just murdered their messiah, our baptism in the body is revealed here
Ephesians1:13
In whom ye also trusted, after that ye heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation: in whom also after that ye believed, ye were sealed with that holy Spirit of promise, 14Which is the earnest of our inheritance until the redemption of the purchased possession, unto the praise of his glory.
we hear Paul's Gospel we believe it we recieve and are sealed with the holy spirit ! then the spirit baptizes us into the 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.
Ephesians 4:5 One Lord, one faith, one baptism,
the one baptism for the body of christ is after we believe the spirit baptizes us into the body its not the Jewish water baptism , its not the outpouring.
"Again, the thief was forgiven before Jesus died." Jesus had the authority to forgive sins.
@@bwoods22wf That's correct, Jesus had the authority to forgive sins while on earth. But now that He has gone back into heaven we are under the Great Commission to believe the gospel, repent, confess Him, and be baptized for the forgiveness of sins (Mk. 16:16; Lk. 13:3; 24:46-47; Mt. 10:32-33; Acts 2:38).

No, it's a commandment, but water baptism in itself can't save you. Even pagans engage in water baptism rituals

NO THE THIEF ON THE CROSS WAS NOT BAPTISED
Can you point to the scripture to support your claim.? Not that it matters because JESUS have the authority to save anyone anywhere anytime regardless of their situation.
Jesus said in Luke 24:47 " Remission of sins to be preached in my name would begin in Jerusalem.." and this happens in Acts 2. Peter preaches the first gospel sermon and in v37 they asked, " What must we do"? and Peter tells them to repent and be baptized in the name of Jesus for the forgiveness of your sins....". We know this is water baptism by reading Acts 10:47-48 , Peter says, " Can any one forbid water for baptizing these people... v48 " and he COMMANDED them to be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ". So, baptism in the name of Jesus is water baptism and it is for the remission of sins. It goes on to say in Acts 2 that those who received the word and were baptized, that the Lord added them to the saved, v41 & v47. In Acts 2 only the apostles received the HS baptism, not the 3000 who were baptized in water.
In Acts 10:33 it says, " Now therefore we are all in the present in the sight of God, to hear all that you have BEEN COMMANDED BY THE LORD". And in v 48 it says, " AND HE COMMANDED THEM to be baptized in the name of Jesus...", so water baptism was commanded by the Lord. In Acts 8, Philip and the Eunuch, it says in v35 that Philip preached about the good new of Jesus....and as they went along ......the Eunuch said, " Here is water! what prevents me from being baptized....", so how did the Eunuch know about water baptism? when it says Philip preached Jesus to him? and also the Eunuch was not baptized in the HS.
In Acts 22:10 Paul ask " What shall I do Lord?" and the Lord said " Go into Damascus and there you will be told...." and Paul was told in v16 " Arise and be baptized, and wash away your sins, calling on his name"....so, where was Paul baptized in the HS? In 1 Cor 1:12-13 we see that in order to BELONG TO CHRIST, you must be baptized in the name of Jesus. Paul says to them, " some say, I BELONG to Paul, or I belong to Apollos, or I belong to Cephas, or I belong to Christ. Is Christ divided? Was Paul crucified for you? or were you baptized in the name of Paul? What about Cephas? Apollos? No, they were not crucified for you, nor were you baptized into their name, so YOU DO NOT BELONG TO THEM. But what about Jesus? Yes he was crucified for me and yes I WAS BAPTIZED IN HIS NAME, so I BELONG TO HIM. Baptism in his name is water baptism, Acts 10:47-48...so I must be baptized in his name to BELONG TO HIM. Lastly, water baptism is a command by the Lord and Jesus said, "if you love me you will keep my commandments.........
The thief on the cross, whom is probably even this day with Christ in paradise, the only man we know of that promise was made too. In truth I tell you this day you shall be with me in paradise. No water given them that day but gall and vinegar.
Lord Jesus Christ who is God the Father in flesh, said in st John 3, that if a person is not born of water baptism and Spirit baptism they can't enter or see the kingdom of God. Who am I to question God, who also left us an example. Amen
Acts 2:38
Yes Acts 2-38, you don't get a headache to take an aspirin, you take an aspirin for the headache. Where was the forgiveness of sins, At the cross of JESUS CHRIST or at someone's baptism?

Heb 6:1-2 shows a list of the ‘foundational principles of the doctrine of Christ.’
1 Therefore leaving the principles of the doctrine of Christ, let us go on unto perfection; not laying again the foundation of repentance from dead works, and of faith toward God,
2 Of THE DOCTRINE OF BAPTISMS, and of laying on of hands, and of resurrection of the dead, and of eternal judgment.
We clearly see baptism listed a one of the foundational principles of the doctrine of Christ. Notice that it is listed as plural, baptism(s).
In Ephesians we read that there is one baptism:
Eph 4:5-6
5 One Lord, one faith, one baptism,
6 One God and Father of all, who is above all, and through all, and in you all
But taking the whole of scripture into account we also see that there are two aspects of this baptism. Water & Spirit.
Jn 3:5
5 Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God.
Acts 10:47
47 Can any man forbid water, that these should not be baptized, which have received the Holy Ghost as well as we?
and in exampled by “type and shadow” in
1 Cor 10:1-2
1 Moreover, brethren, I would not that ye should be ignorant, how that all our fathers were under the cloud, and all passed through the sea;
2 And were all baptized unto Moses in the cloud and in the sea
We also see that after the command to repent and be baptized(in water) was given, the church continued in the doctrine preached by the apostles.
Acts 2:42
42 And they continued stedfastly in the apostles' doctrine and fellowship, and in breaking of bread, and in prayers.
Lastly Paul warns in 2 Tim 3:1-7
1 This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come.
2 For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy,
3 Without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good,
4 Traitors, heady, highminded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God;
5 HAVING A FORM OF GODLINESS, BUT DENYING THE POWER THEREOF: FROM SUCH TURN AWAY.
6 For of this sort are they which creep into houses, and lead captive silly women laden with sins, led away with divers lusts,
7 EVER LEARNING, AND NEVER ABLE TO COME TO THE KNOWLEDGE OF THE TRUTH.
Beware of anyone teaching to forsake the foundational principles.
Question about your quote of Acts 10:47, why would you quote that to try to prove your argument.. “Those who have received the Holy Ghost as well as we?” They received the Holy Ghost preceding baptism.. Being Born of God, Born again is how we know we are saved.. 1 John 5:1.
What true christian would deny an ordinance or obedience to Christ? We aren’t saved by the water, we are saved by the Spirit. Baptism is a ceremony.. was Abraham saved because of circumcision? No, he was deemed righteous by faith, Genesis 15:6. True faith produces good works, sure, but you saved by your faith.
No one is arguing the importance of baptism, but to say it’s a requirement for salvation is teaching faith + something and you are teaching that the finished work the cross isn’t enough for you to be saved, taking away from what Christ did for all of us.
We are saved by grace alone, faith alone, in Christ alone. Nothing more, nothing less.
@@BrandtRowland Acts 10:47 shows the necessity of both. As confirmed in
Acts 11:16-17
16 Then remembered I the word of the Lord, how that he said, John indeed baptized with water; but ye shall be baptized with the Holy Ghost.
17 Forasmuch then as God gave them the like gift as he did unto us, who believed on the Lord Jesus Christ; what was I, that I could withstand God?
To deny water would be to “withstand God”.
Water baptism is not an outward show for men but it is obedience and faith towards God.
----
There is only one place in scripture that says “faith” “alone” and that is James 2.
That ‘belief’ and “understanding” of faith alone is the continued fulfillment of what people have been doing with Paul’s writings since the Bible days. It’s actually frightening to witness.
2 Pet 3:16
16 As also in all his epistles, speaking in them of these things; in which are some things hard to be understood, which they that are unlearned and unstable wrest, as they do also the other scriptures, unto their own destruction.
To take what Paul said about “saved by grace” in Ephesians, that was addressed to people that had already OBEYED the gospel by believing and being baptized(in water) and receiving the Holy Spirit(Acts 19) to say that any of those things were NOT necessary because he afterwards wrote “grace alone” is one of the clearest examples of “wresting/twisting” Paul’s letters to destructive ends.
----
Does faith in Christ mean to only believe who He is and what He did? Or is Faith in Him also believing and obeying what He said?
Jn 3:5 Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God.
Do you believe what Jesus said?
I mean faith and obeying a command is faith + something and we are told in scripture we are justified by faith?
In the beginning of your message you stated the difference between the two, Water and Spirit. With that logic which one saves?
You completely rip John 3:5 out of context and fail to see its a reference to Ezekiel 35:25 where Spirit and water are tied together, as well as John 4:14 and countless other passages inferencing Spirit and Water as one thing, why would Jesus have rebuked Nicodemus for being a teacher of Israel and not knowing something that wasn’t even in play yet? That makes 0 sense, if you look at it with no preconceived notion is pretty obvious.. Nicodemus was a Jew, he knew the old testament and should have been expecting this to come to pass. To even say this is a reference to water baptism is mind boggling to me.
May I also add, why would a true professing Christian with true saving faith deny getting baptized? He wouldn’t.. he’s saved already prior to the ceremony.
Was Abraham counted righteous by faith or by circumcision? and if your argument is old testament why would Paul reference it?
How about 1 John 5:1 or 1 John 5:10? Seems to me being born again is from believing? Not from water baptism.
What about Romans 4:28, and Romans 4:5? Well is his faith counted for righteousness, or is it not?
What about 1 Corinthians 12:13? or Philippians 3:9?
I am not saying you shouldn’t be baptized.. but to say you are counted righteous when you get baptized in water is teaching contradictory the Word.. and if you say no it’s not, then why do so many verses contradict what you think?

Cory the Bible in Matthew 28:19; did not say for his disciples to go into all nations and make disciples. Kjv: it says to go and teach all nations ; if they accept the teachings of the apostles and do them they will automatically be disciples. Cory you need to read from the Bible; you are reading from what’s called the Bible,but it’s not a Bible.revelation 22:18 -19 ; you can’t even change one word of the true scriptures! And the book you’re reading from has different words, from the actual scriptures thus rendering it not the true scriptures!!
I never received an answer to my question...
Ask your question again
Question: How do you know when the Holy Spirit is speaking to you... Also how can you discern between your thoughts vs the Holy Spirit?
Technically 2 questions... Sorry
@@JusAlilKountry when you read the Bible, it’s inspired by the Holy Spirit
@@JusAlilKountry the only way is the scripture
So disappointed.
Water just makes people wet. Jesus nailed all the rituals to the cross.
That includes dipping people in water and crackers and grape juice, rituals .
It’s up to God, but it doesn’t look good for Martin Luther King
Based on the Great Commission, is ok to not water baptize. (Not saying for sake of saving, but obedience)
There’s no water in the “great commission”
@@aletheia8054so then what is baptism then.
@@NothingButDaTru
Blood baptism or baptism by fire. These are metaphors for Holy Spirit baptism. There’s only one baptism in the Bible and it’s not H20
Water baptism was a shadow of the true baptism which is the spirit
”He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned.“
Mark 16:16 KJV
My brother, that is a very very dangerous doctrine you are preaching. Baptism is for the remission of sin as spoken by our Lord Jesus, and his holy apostles. Yes you must be baptized.
So for all the “water immersion is unto salvation” people here
How do you explain the thief on the cross
What do you say of people who literally cannot be water baptized?
It is either you must be for all or for none because god is no respect of persons he doesn’t show favoritism or partiality.
And as a bonus you are misinterpreting Matthew born of water is literal actual birth out of your mothers womb and born of spirit is salvation which is why nicademus said “ I can’t go back into my mothers womb”
Why do people make salvation so difficult? What can wash away my sin nothing but the blood of Jesus! What can make me whole again NOTHING but the blood of Jesus
What was an atonement prior to the Christ? A slain lamb! His blood on the alter.
Baptism in water is not unto salvation.
Jesus is the Lord. He can command anyone to be saved at any time! He did that with the thief! that does not mean His commands in the great commission are not commands to be followed! you are "eisegiting" your own interpretation into the scriptures! you set yourself up with those first stories of people who are ill, who are in jail etc... The Apostles followed Jesus's command by Baptizing those who were being saved! What must we do to be saved asked one. Peter told him to repent and!! be baptized act 2:38-41 Why would Peter an Apostle tell them this if it were not important? Rom 6:3-4.
I do believe in those situations that make it impossible to be baptized Gods mercy will reign. Even so, for those of us Who can obey what Jesus Himself said to do and the Apostles and believers followed up and obeyed His imperative to Baptize believers! Jesus Himself was Baptized to "fulfill all righteousness" We as believers are to follow in His footsteps! Brother, you are terribly incorrect! What convinces me is the Great commission! Jesus Himself is commanding us in every part of that commission to do exactly as He says. No part of Jesus's words is a suggestion!
Again Cory I have to disagree with you. Baptism is a command from God. Besides which is more important to do what Jesus did which was he did get baptized not for the same reason as the rest of us but John did baptize Jesus. I rather not listen to a mere man telling me that water baptism is not necessary. Baptism is necessary to wash away sin. Sins that has to be forgiven by God. Jesus commanded the Apostles in Matthew 28:10, 20 to go out and and teach all nations and baptize in the name of the Father Son and Holy Spirit. Acts 2:38 confirms that water baptism is very necessay.
Mark 16:16
Luke 24:44-49
Acts
Acts 2:38 is about water baptism absolutely
Acts 8 ... and Evangelist Phillip and Eunuch
Acts 10 Apostle Peter said Can any man forbid water?
Acts 9 and 22 especially Apostle Paul his testimony he was to why wait arise be baptized for the remission of sins calling on the name of the Lord
Yes GOD knows those who are in particular situations like being locked up ect ...Apostle doctrine GOD Bless
Acts 22
Your analysis of these baptism passages is weighed in the balances and found wanting. Acts 2: 38 does not say "remission of your sins": check a KJV/interlinear. How do you know the thief on the cross was not ever baptized? Answer: you don't, just as I don't. If you think you do, give the passage. The thief on the cross was pronounced a saved man under the Old Covenant. You honestly sound more like a Baptist than a Christian.
What?????? How do we know he wasn’t water baptized? lol are you serious?
Oh I’m sure the guards took him down and let him get in the sea or perhaps they poured water in his head? You’re implying the lord left this unavoidable point out of the text! Really??
To counter your ridiculous argument; how could Jesus tell him today you will be with me in paradise in response to his confession of the messiah??!!
Give yourself a break he obviously wasn’t baptized which means you don’t need to be unto salvation.
NO NO wrong sir we see VERY clearly that Jesus was speaking ONLY to his disciples to carry on the work of establishing His church ! Only they were to recieve the baptizm of the Holy Spirit with it"s miraculous gifts O.K ? But when the last Apostle died so did the gifts they recieved of the Holy Spirit and cannot be applied to believers after that Water baptizm is NOT a work, but an act of OBEDIENCE , in order to recieve the remission of ones sins after having REPENTED !! Acts 2 38, 22 16 1Pet 3 21 Please STOP teaching this heresy and telling unbaptized people that they will be saved without REPENTING and getting Baptized because they will end up in Hell thnks to you !
