Not in the sense to be saved or recieve the Holy Spirit.So only the Gentiles do not need to be baptized?
Then why does Christ say Baptize all nations, and all people in Matthew 28 and Mark 16.Not in the sense to be saved or recieve the Holy Spirit.
The same way he command s to observe the Lords supper . Does that save ?Then why does Christ say Baptize all nations, and all people in Matthew 28 and Mark 16.
And why does He say no one can enter the kingdom of God unless born of Water and Spirit in John 3:5?
The word baptism is that in John 3.5 ?Then why does Christ say Baptize all nations, and all people in Matthew 28 and Mark 16.
And why does He say no one can enter the kingdom of God unless born of Water and Spirit in John 3:5?
Galatians 3:7 and Acts 18:8 uses that word, so does Mark 16 and Matthew 28.The word baptism is that in John 3.5 ?
Gal 3 .7 ?Galatians 3:7 and Acts 18:8 uses that word, so does Mark 16 and Matthew 28.
Hmmmmm….
If only there was a man, who was called a Baptist, that way we would know what baptism is... It would be really really helpful if his whole ministry was Baptism, especially if it was the baptism of Christ Himself, then there could be no confusion of what baptism is.
And what would be the most helpful, is if this person was talked about only versus before John 3:5 that way we could know what the water is... It is such a mystery.
Acts 18 .8Galatians 3:7 and Acts 18:8 uses that word, so does Mark 16 and Matthew 28.

Where does it mention water in Mark 16 ?Galatians 3:7 and Acts 18:8 uses that word, so does Mark 16 and Matthew 28.

Yes they had to IDENTIFY with John's baptism. Identifying was a big deal for the jews .What is baptism... If only we had a man named X the Baptist.... Surely God would have given a man that title to show us.
I think if you read it carefully, it's saying that the WHOLE WORLD or all of Mankind is predestined to reconcile with God via the blood of Jesus. In other words, God predestined a way for fallen mankind to be forgiven and received back into the fold of God's family. These translations do not always come off so well. For instance, the same word is used for Judging and condemning, we are in reality commanded to judge by God, but told never to condemn, for that is God's alone. So anytime someone says Oh, Don't judge, that is just a lie from Satan, trying to get the Church to accept sin.
We wouldn't even send our kids across the road without telling them to judge if a car is coming by looking both ways, let we aren't to judge others, it's just not the case. We are not to condemn anyone, I can't say you are hell boud, but I can say to someone, hey, you are cheating on your wife, you are a Christian, you know that you are wrong, those sins will separate you from God, you better tell your wife and repent. So, Judging, and Condemning are two different things, likewise, I see Paul speaking bout Predestination, and I know hes talking about our SALVATION has been predestinated, but not all people will of course accept that salvation.
God Bless

27For as many of you as have been baptized ( by the Holy Spirit into Christ have put on Christ.What is baptism... If only we had a man named X the Baptist.... Surely God would have given a man that title to show us.

I've no idea what you mean ?Can you show me in scriptures anyone who was an expert at baptism and what they did?
John 1-2 explains it wellI've no idea what you mean ?
Could be the Mothers' waters ' ( born of flesh ) A jew believed his ethnicity was enough , but they had to also be born of the Spirit not just of flesh.John 1-2 explains it well
John the Baptist.
Now in John 3:5 what does Christ mean by saying "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."
What is this water? We understand Spirit is the Holy Spirit, but what is the water?
