More on Baptism
AND
JESUS' Powerful Blood

YOU must be baptized, by immersion,
to be saved. This is not negotiable.
Scriptures Quoted
Comments by C.E. White

The proof is listed here on this page with GOD's word -
not man's. Never trust man's word ... Never.

^{Acts 2: 36} "Therefore let all Israel be assured of this: God has made this Jesus, whom you crucified, both Lord and Christ."  ³⁷When the people heard this, they were cut to the heart and said to Peter and the other apostles, "Brothers, what shall we do?"

^{Acts 2 38} Peter replied, "Repent and be baptized, every one of you, in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins. And you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit. ³⁹The promise is for you and your children and for all who are far off--for all whom the Lord our God will call."
⁴⁰With many other words he warned them; and he pleaded with them, "Save yourselves from this corrupt generation." ⁴¹Those who accepted his message were baptized, and about three thousand were added to their number that day.

Baptism is imperative, an absolute requirement, to salvation. This is backed up by JESUS HIMSELF in John 3:5 - Jesus answered, "I tell you the truth, no one can enter the kingdom of God unless he is born of water and the Spirit.

Well what about those who don't believe this?  What if I don't believe this?

JESUS again answers this with one of the most scary verses in the Bible.- John 8: 42-47  JESUS said to them, "If God were your Father, you would love me, for I came from God and now am here. I have not come on my own; but he sent me. ⁴³Why is my language not clear to you? Because you are unable to hear what I say. ⁴⁴You belong to your father, the devil, and you want to carry out your father's desire. He was a murderer from the beginning, not holding to the truth, for there is no truth in him. When he lies, he speaks his native language, for he is a liar and the father of lies. ⁴⁵Yet because I tell the truth, you do not believe me! ⁴⁶Can any of you prove me guilty of sin? If I am telling the truth, why don't you believe me? ⁴⁷He who belongs to God hears what God says. The reason you do not hear is that you do not belong to God."

Is there anything else to say?  JESUS, in John 3: 5 and John 8: 42 thru 47, says that HE is speaking the truth!  Why isn't HE  believed?  Because those who do not believe are not GOD's children!  S-C-A-R-Y!  To those who do not believe JESUS' truth I give this warning ... BE AFRAID... BE VERY AFRAID!

You can  only can debate this issue with man or woman AND they do not have the authority to change GOD's word!  In fact if they do not believe what JESUS has said, if they change what HE has said, whose child are they?  Jesus answers that too!  They are not GOD's child!
