Water Baptism is a Personal Choice_mishael - 2 years ago
I've told this before, but I see new faces.
I was saved out of Astrology. I was practicing and as a result " serving Satan." After I was saved, I had demonic beings try to scare me to death. Sometimes every day
I would go to a church that would "cast out the demons" before church started. Demons would say, "YOU better come with us!" I would hold on to my chair white-knuckled. One day, a Baptist !!! Gave a word of knowledge about me. Like the woman at the well. I was born again, Spirit filled; but I wasn't healed. Boy did I get healed!
A month later I was to be BAPTIZED IN WATER at my request. I was drawing "a line in the sand". No more demonic attacks! This was me saying I belong to Jesus Christ and no other. He is MY LORD forever.
I was able to read the Bible and understand everything. I tuned out the noise of the world, and asked the Holy Spirit to teach me EVERYTHING. No holds barred I asked the Lord to erase all the memory of stars, planets and geometrical aspects. Take it out of me. He did. It's cool kind of amnesia.
I Needed to honor My Lord by being water baptized. I wanted the slate clean. If they had refused I woulda gone somewhere else.
Do not discourage people like me who need to make a public statement (to creepy demons) that I'm doing this for me, in the sight of Jesus, for the glory of God.
6 weeks later, I'm in with a bunch of street evangelists. God called me. It's lasted 36 years. One on one, cold contact, door to door, dropping tracts outside Goodwill and Home Depot :D
If people came in here to find the God that offers Salvation, WHAT will they see? Where is the fruit of the Holy Spirit_ the patience of our Lord Jesus?
Job1_try to remember that Satan stealthily stalks his victims. He's a watcher. Always looking for an opening to cause the brethren to erupt in controversy. My experience: he's vile, violent, murderous heart, steals joy and peace; adores riots (look in our streets).
If not you haven't supplied any scripture supporting you MUST be water baptized to be saved!!
However
We see the transition starting with John the baptist as the for runner.
Matthew 3:8-11.
John's baptism was the baptism of repentance. what was it they needed to turn from? Judaism!!
How did he baptize? With water!
Was it for salvation? No he was preparing the way for salvation. Matthew3:9. Suggest their confidence was in being children of Abraham and the seal of circumcision.
Verse 10 " The axe is laid at the root!!
There goes the degenerate vine, on comes the true vine or genuine vine. One Jews and Gentiles will be joined to. now we see a transition taken place. They were Identified with Judaism by circumcision, now they are to be Identified to Christ by baptism. And to express there belief by water baptism as the Jews did by circumcision.
Then comes Jesus to be baptized by John. For salvation? YES, OURS!!
He was to fulfill all righteousness!
He was Identifying with all who would come to him. He was going to bare our sins on the cross.
GiGi. There has never been a tread where I said I believe a Christian shouldn't be baptized.
Who/what were the giants referred to in Genisis? Were they the humanoid groups science has dug up the skeletons of?
If Adam was around 4000 BCE and God took 6000 years to bring him around, that would be about the end of the last ice age 10,000 BCE that God begin to redo the earth? Where does the proof of life from say 500,000 years ago, fit into the teachings of the Bible? Could Adam have been many 1000s of years before we are taught? Answers anyone?
I am wondering what others think about this article I read. I don't know if anyone can explain why God didn't explain different races. Would we be happier if we knew God purposed it that way?
The only differences explained are like: Jews, Palestinians, Caananites, all the "ites", etc.

Put a . Where I had to spell dot out
I was an artist when younger. I learned how to make new colors from basic colors, plus white or black. I think it was people who began to value or devalue people according to color.
God used dust to form the first humans.
Have you ever sculpted with clay? The sculptor looks for earth that is shaded already; or they shade it themselves. Every piece can be different.
God made no distinction. We have no direction on skin colors.
We'd get bored to tears if every sunrise or sunset all looked identical. What if cats and dogs were all the same color? Yellow and pink & neon orange tee shirts make me feel hostile. What's up with that?
Goodnight. Enjoyed your comments and questions today. Happy New Year.
My comment is I'm a Frontline worker and what I do I take care of residents that have disabilities and helping them to reach there goals. My understanding I work with this lady Ms Tammy. Morrow and she talks to me with a sarcastic attitude My question is how can I obtain myself from that??
My church says I don't need to be baptized because I have been born of water through my mother. Is there any scripture to confirm that? Or do I absolutely need to be baptized even if I am a real Christian in my life. Very close & personal relationship with my lord and savior Jesus Christ?
What should we do now in these to bring a sacrifice to lord when we sin or do something that we shouldn't do as Christians ? or how should we advice for a person who don't know God.
1 peter 1:1 Peter, an apostle of Jesus Christ, to the strangers scattered throughout Pontus, Galatia, Cappadocia, Asia, and Bithynia,
Written to scattered Israelites..........where is the undeniable biblical proof that the new covenant is for non-Israelites?
Who are the Israelites? What is an Israelite? Are the tea brews correct when they say that the Israelites are a particular ethnic group and the gospel and salvation is only for God's people, the ethnic Israelites?
'World' in the bible is an ambiguous word. According to particular verses; the tongue is a world, there are worlds, the end of the world has already happened. 'Gentiles' is also an ambiguous word because scattered Israelites are called Gentiles when they are idolatrous.
I have found a few verses that seem to suggest that God Loves non-Israelites. Nineveh repented. Is there biblical proof that Nineveh were not scattered ethnic Israelites? Did Nineveh happen before Israel's offspring?
I know that salvation is spiritual through belief and not flesh but not all Israel is Israel. That could mean that only Israelites can receive a spiritual rebirth.
Does salvation only apply to ethnic Israelites?
I'm collecting verses that debunk the doctrine that only ethnic Israelites can be children of God. There are multiple verses that say that God Loves Israel. I'm obviously looking for verses that say that God Loves people who aren't ethnic Israelites. John 3:16 uses the ambiguous word 'world'....'world' could mean Israel, it's not clear. 'Whosoever' could be talking about the Israelites. The scriptures were written by Israelites to Israelites, so 'whosoever' may only apply to Israelites.
'All men' is also ambiguous because of the verse that says: you will be hated by 'all men' for my name's sake.
Israelites were scattered into 'all' nations..the 12 tribes and 12 gates...
The tea brews make some strong arguments that the bible is only for Israelites. Who are the Israelites?
I have come across while reading my KJV Bible...now this site matches up with my Bible "word for word"
WHY have I seen and read the word "Unicorn" ? I thought Unicorns were a fictional and methodical creature..ya know not "REAL" ... am I wrong ? also the word "alien" a few times too..now I know Aliens are really fallen Angels and Demons...there are not any aliens from another planet !! ..that is a world deception to throw us off ...now when it says "alien" in the Bible dose this mean just someone from another country ..like it means here ? a alien from across the sea or across the boarder ??... you know like "Illegal alien" meaning a man or woman who isn't a registered citizen ...can anyone explain why Unicorn is in the kjv Bible ..and what dose it mean when I see the word "alien"
Thank you for anyone who takes the time to explain to me ..
4 Questions All Scientists Seek Answers To - 2 years ago
All scientists seek to explain FOUR QUESTIONS: Time, Force, Action, Matter. (Even Steven Hawking)
I was reading in Genesis, the Holy Spirit stops me on verse 1. He said the 4 things
TIME: in the beginning__God set TIME ticking
FORCE: The Godhead created. (Father, The Word ( John 1:1) and Holy Spirit
ACTION: and the Spirit of God MOVED over
MATTER: earth, waters, atoms
God purposed, Word spoke: Light Be, and there was Light. (Purpose Spoke Light)
Carbon dating proves earth is around 2-3 billion years. Satan was around but he's a created being himself. He cannot create dinosaurs, cavemen or anything. My personal theory is: Romans 1:19-20. God put the artifacts in earth for us to find; oil for our cars, coal to be warm, fresh water for us and salted water for creatures.
We have to pray for scientists to see the Book of Romans. It's an occupation, as is archaeology, bio science, medicine. We are without excuse if we refuse to acknowledge The Godhead.
They're going to flip out when they get to heaven and see it's lighted up by the Glory of Jesus (The Son) and not a sun.
Jesus wants us to know this stuff because THE HOLY SPIRIT IS OUR TEACHER. All we have to do is ask Him. It's not a secret.
I don't discuss the giants because angels do not marry. We will be as the angels in heaven, in that we will not marry or procreate. Survivors of the entire Tribulation who have received Jesus as savior and managed to survive alive without mass murder by Antichrist will be taken to heaven in human reproducing bodies for 1000 years. They'll have to resist satans deceptions when he gets a short parole to tempt the still human people; then Satan goes to the lake of fire forever. O happy days!
These present troubles are just temporary. Let's spread the Word to the Harvest and get as many in as we can. We're going to be living with The God that purposed all of this!
This was my Bible Study time with my Teacher, Holy Spirit, ok?
Using this Websites SEARCH ENGINE to Study Specific Scriptures - 2 years ago
When you come into this website you're on the RED LINK PAGE.

It's a really great SEARCH ENGINE, but just for Bible subject.
You can put the word 'Atonement' in the Search box and hit the arrow >
The engine will fetch every scripture that contains that word. You can sort the list; and the engine places the list in book order.
Or you can read either Old Testament verses only
Or, New Testament verses only
With DATES OR HISTORY, you'll have to go on Google. Type it in like this:
"Atonement, history".
(Or date)
You have to use ancient names from ancient maps.
By using all the search options, you'll learn some really awesome information. If search doesn't fetch anything try wording it differently.
If it fetches 10,000 verses; try wording it another way or just look at only OT or NT verses.
Look around on this whole website to see what's in it. If you get lost, just back out and come back in. Curious is good.

Did the Lord Jesus Christ already allow us (Christians) to eat any food we want to eat?
Has this prophecy come already?

Discern the spirits.
18 That they do good, that they be rich in good works, ready to distribute, willing to communicate;
19 Laying up in store for themselves a good foundation against the time to come, that they may lay hold on eternal life.
20 O Timothy, keep that which is committed to thy trust, avoiding profane and vain babblings, and oppositions of science falsely so called:
21 Which some professing have erred concerning the faith. Grace be with thee. Amen.
Again you are arguing the wrong narrative.

I'VE SAID IT WASN'T FOR SALVATION.
I believe we are in tribulation going on the third year and a great harvest of souls is coming are we ready to do our part?For the revivial!
