How does a person get into the ' body of Christ ' ?

[oyster67]

You believed in a risen christ , correct ?
Acts 17

Yes

What do you mean by // God decides whose heart is ready to receive, not you or I.// ?

It means that we do not get to make up a twenty page questionaire and decide if someone has enough head knowledge to get into the Kingdom.

God decides whose heart is ready to receive, not you or I.// I believe the bible says that all are able to come. Response - able . There are no exclusive individuals that God has selected to receive and others he passes by

That is correct.

In 1 cor 1 he has already addressed that they are baptised. When he addressed the divisions between them.

When Paul says he's glad he didn't baptise except....and that HE wasn't sent to baptise, we are not confused if this IS by water . Because this would be a MAN doing it and not the Holy Spirit. So this one's easy . They all are .

Are quantum effects related to all possible paths of waves?

Can tunneling happen when there was a possible path to allow it?

Would a decohered particle only have one path?

Is entanglement when two particles share the same "all possible paths"?

Can we quantum entangle with God because entanglement is timeless?

Does the delayed choice quantum eraser already demonstrate disregard for time?

The Cross is The Way out of this fallen reality. Our souls entangle to God when we open the door.

Except it is for as it's written in verse 39 those far off, and then Philip baptised the Samaritans and the Ethiopian Eunuch, and the first chapter of corinthians clearly states they were baptised.

Whos people ' afar off ' ? those Jews Peters speaking to . There is not a law keeping, sabbath observing, pork abstaining man in the crowd hearing. Its Their children ( jews ) and Jews who are afar off .

39For the promise is unto you,( Jews ) and to your children, ( Jews) and to all that are afar off, ( Jews) even as many as the Lord our God shall call.( Jews)

And I'm not saying people were not water baptised.

So "circumcision made without hands" can't be entanglement?

Your better off with scripture.

I thought your goal was to explain this to unbelievers? They usually understand some science.

Rom 10.
9That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.

1 cor 15 1-4

¶Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand;

2By which also you are saved , if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain.

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;

4And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:

I mean can they believe that Jesus was Just a good man that wasn't Lord ?

These passages do not teach that one must believe before they can be saved only that they will believe after they are saved. A believer will believe all that the scriptures teach of Jesus but one does not need complete biblical knowledge of Jesus before they are saved.

Now from the language you must determine if it is future or an affirmation of a promise of God that has already fulfilled.

What is the purpose of Christ's resurrection?

I've never said they need the complete biblical knowledge of christ ?

The op is how does a person ( who is not a believer) Get into the body of Christ ?

We are found in Christ. The church is the body of Christ. Your op is confusing.
How can the body of Christ be in the body of Christ.

All should be welcome in the church which is the body of Christ.

Can you be saved today without being in the body of Christ ? No . So its the same as saying how do tell people how to be saved? Of course in the OT people were not put into the body of christ .

1 cor 15 ( same chapter)
17And if Christ be not raised, your faith is vain; ye are yet in your sins.

Does not address the question. There are a number of reasons that necessitate the bodily resurrection of Christ but they are not related directly to redemption.
