Hi there everyone. Well, am going to make quick in and outs from now on. The last 3 months seems like a strange dream right now.
Let me look in the trusty Strongs, or anything, actually, with a good concordance, and let's see how much baptism went on after the Lord himself was baptised. I believe to say that it is a requirement for heaven is a little absurd. Certainly that would deny the entire Life of Jesus in our behalf.

But I sure know it changes you big-time, and separates people to a greater degree of committment. Much like those that have prayed specifically for the indwelloing of the Holy S pirit, versus people who assume it simp[ly drops upon us unnoticed. Boy, I don't think it is unnoticed at all.

IMHO only, and from years of being around the fully submersed baptised. I know people who get rebaptisted after backslidding. I think it is not to be judged if someone gets baptisted 20 times. But I do honestly believe it is a wonderful divine mystery, and part of the faith walk like praying for healing of sickness and all the rest. '

More later, and good subject to research so we know. It seems like Peter and John baptised a bunch of people, but I could be mixing up info.
