1 Peter 3...BAPTISM NOW SAVES YOU--BY STEVE FINNELL<br /><br />1 Peter 3:21 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:(KJB)<br /><br />The Bible says baptism doth now save us .....by the resurrection of Jesus Christ.<br /><br />Faith alone advocates say baptism has nothing to do with salvation. They say it is a simple act of obedience.<br /><br /><br />1 Peter 3:21 Baptism, which is like that water, now saves you. Baptism doesn't save by removing dirt from the body. Rather, baptism is a request to God for a clear conscience. It saves you through Jesus Christ, who came back from death to life.(God's Word Translation)<br /><br /><br />The Bible says baptism....now saves you.<br />The Bible says baptism is a request to God for a clear conscience.<br /><br />Faith only proponents say water baptism has nothing to do with salvation. They say baptism is only essential in order to join a denominational church.<br /><br />Faith only enthusiasts proclaim that baptism does not save, but is only a testimony of faith to the community.<br /><br />Faith only defenders state that men can get to heaven without being baptized in water, however they cannot join the local church without baptism.<br /><br /><br />Mark 16:16 Whoever believes and is baptized will be saved, but whoever does not believe will be condemned.(English Standard Version)<br /><br /><br />Jesus said whoever is baptized will be saved. Will be, is future tense not past tense. Will be saved does not mean has already been saved. <br /><br />Faith only champions say men are baptized because their sins have already been forgiven.<br /><br /><br /><br />YOU ARE INVITED TO FOLLOW MY BLOG. http://steve-finnell.blogspot.comSteve Finnellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12863026367048527526noreply@blogger.com
