This entry addresses the command by Jesus Christ to be baptized to be saved (Mark 16:16), and Apostle Peters command to be baptized for remission of sins (Acts 2:38). Unfortunately this is a hotly contested topic of discussion in Christendom. It is a Salvation question that has been tangled and mis-taught and must be rightly understood. We at Scriptures Weekly are happy to do so for the purpose of "rightly dividing the word of truth" (2 Timothy 2:15) for the aid and benefit of our fellow seekers of God on this blog, and beyond.
These video lessons can help the seeker to learn the biblical answers God teaches us in order to become a true Christian, a child of God and partaker of His new covenant. So why be baptized? Lets find out below.
For those who question why the word Baptism or Baptize is not stated in some scriptures related to Salvation, this video will help you to see how God's complete Word (Matt. 4:4, Acts 20:27) covers His whole plan of Salvation.
