First Corinthians 15:1-4
DISCLAIMER...
Many Spiritual leaders teach that baptism is necessary for Salvation OR to receive the free gift of the Holy Spirit. I personally disagree and scripture upholds this POV. "For ye are saved by grace through faith and not of yourselves. It is a GIFT of God. Not of works (nor deeds) lest any man should boast." I do believe it is an issue of obedience though. When Jesus Christ said on Calvary, "It is finished," it was complete. The plan of salvation ended and His redeeming work was complete. He died, was buried and rose again on the third day, according to scriptures. By GRACE and GRACE alone are we saved and by no other name (except Jesus Christ can anyone be saved. Baptism or lack thereof does not save you. Good works cannot save you but do follow the very natural course of following Him. You can be baptized in the name of the Father, Son and Holy Spirit or Jesus Christ alone. One God, One Spirit, One Salvation. Living for Him may seem like slavery but it is complete and total liberty. No rules, no rituals or ceremonies. We can pray out loud, silently, in school, at home or anywhere. We can read His Word in our heads. We can sing to Him and worship Him 24/7. Jesus Christ IS our Sabbath rest. It's not about a day, a special way or eating only certain foods. We can worship Jesus Christ every single day in many ways and thanks to the internet, we can go to "church" any time we want and hear what we want to learn. How amazing is GRACE!
LOVE GOD/LOVE OTHERS!
