The day I obeyed Gods call to be baptized, that was the turning point in my spiritual life! I became alive, started growing, started hearing Gods voice, the Holy Spirit started sanctifying me and prepared me for the baptism with the Holy Spirit as well! It is imperative to your relationship with God!
Amen Sister! Ii belong to Christ...but my baptism will be very soon and I pray the Holy Spirit becomes alive in me for His Will on this earth! Praise Jesus Christ!
I didn't realise I was rebelling. I was born again in 1999 but haven't been baptised. 1. commanded by Jesus 2.public confession of my faith. 3. a portrayal of what happened to me at salvation. 4. identify self with body of Christ. 5 It drives a stake to declare I am a follower of Jesus. 6. affirms my belief an Christ and the promise of a bodily resurrection. -I need to do this for these reasons.

Have your sins washed away by calling on the name of the Lord. Justification comes always through faith alone in Christ alone... Read the verses before and after, proper exegesis....
@@mauricegibney8449 Peter didn’t say that. He specifically said repent of your sins (turn away from sinning)and be baptized FOR the forgiveness of sins. Yes, you have to believe that Jesus was the son of God but according to Peter it is the act of baptism that washes your sins away. Dr. Stanley is wrong what he is telling people here. Just to believe in Jesus doesn’t save you. To believe that you have to ignore all the times in the Bible that people were told to be baptized. Peter specifically says that you have to be baptized too receive the gift of the Holy Spirit. If you are never baptized you don’t receive it. Jesus told Nichodemus no man can enter the kingdom of God unless they are born of the water and the spirit. Baptism is a requirement it’s not just symbolism.
@@kerrybray1475 Absolutely. According to Dr. Stanley, at the very point at which Saul (Paul) was told, "And now why tarriest thou? arise, and be baptized, and wash away thy sins, calling on the name of the Lord," he shouldn't have had any sins to wash away. He was already a believer. So Dr. Stanley totally jumped ship on that one. And if one cares to study the passage in Greek, he will find that "be baptized", "wash away they sins" and "calling on the name of the Lord" all occur at the same time. The Ephesians to whom Paul wrote on Eph 2 had already been baptized - some of them twice. His rule seems to be: "If a particular passage doesn't say it, then it's not necessary." He sees Acts 16: 31 and can't find repentance, but automatically inserts it. He can't find loving God. He just inserts it. He can't even find calling on the name of the Lord, but he adds it. It just seems to me that Mr. Stanley gets more of his doctrine from the Baptist Manual than from the Bible.
Why does everyone always argue about this? The Lord Jesus was Baptized, this it was pretty important. The Bible says we should be Baptized…. So why not just….. be Baptized? Leave nothing to doubt. I want to be Baptized and I want to Baptize as many believers as I possibly can, it’s on my heart to do so.
I agree. But we also have this …. Matthew 28:19 Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit,. Straight from The Savior. It’s on my heart to baptize people and I have thought about this very thing. “In the name of The Father, The Son Lord Jesus and The Precious Holy Spirit” what about something like that?

we are saved by believing in christ--today we are baptized by the blood of Jesus....water baptism is sin and never needed---water baptism was only a shadow of christ--by believing in christ we are washed and forgiven and cleansed before God---water baptism does not cleanse anyone of sin
In Romans 6:3_7 " Do you not know that all of us who have been baptized into Christ Jesus were baptized into His death? We were buried therefore with Him just as Christ. Was raised from the dead by the glory of the Father, we too might walk in newness of life. For if we have been united with Him in a death like his, we shall certainly be united with him in a resurrection like His. We know that our old self was crucified with Him in order that the body of sin might be brought to nothing, so that we would no longer be enslaved to sin. Sorry baptism is need to be saved and put into a new life by dying to the old life.
Go to Galatians 3:26-28 For in Christ Jesus you are all sons of God through faith. For as many of you were baptized into Christ have put on Christ. There is neither Jew or Greek, is no male or female, for you are all one inChrist Jesus. With faith in Jesus Christ and being baptized for the remission of sins you become a child of God and placed into Christ.
@@bscott69kareoke baptism yes---but not water baptism. true baptism is believing in christ that he is God, we are baptized by living water not physical water
@@brianmessinger3984 it is water baptism that one comes into contact with the blood of Christ. The one baptism described in Ephesians 4 is water baptism and not Holy Spirit baptism. Study more in Acts to see that this was the mode of baptism that was used.
Mr Stanley seems to be infected by the terrible false teaching of the Baptists. They rob baptism of its spiritual significance. But it is simple: In Christ one is on the way of salvation and the only way to get in Christ is to believe, repent and be baptized in Him, in other words, being immersed in His name (provided there is enough water available). That is the pure and simple truth of God's design.
Your not saved until after baptism. You don’t accept Jesus then he saves you the. You are baptized That’s not what Jesus taught The lord said. He Thst believe and is baptized will be saved.
At the 7:40 mark he lies and says baptism follows salvation and the bible mentions nowhere that baptism saves us please read these passage from. 1 Peter 3:21-22 New King James Version (NKJV) There is also an antitype which now saves us-baptism (not the removal of the filth of the flesh, but the answer of a good conscience toward God), through the resurrection of Jesus Christ, who has gone into heaven and is at the right hand of God, angels and authorities and powers having been made subject to Him. Mark 16:15-16 New International Version 15 He said to them, “Go into all the world and preach the gospel to all creation. 16 Whoever believes and is baptized will be saved, but whoever does not believe will be condemned.
Mark 16:16 “He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved” 1Corinthians 7:14 Acts 10, Acts 16, Acts 18, 1Corinthians 1 Entire families were baptized and infants are part of families. Who are we to question the mysterious ways in which the Holy Spirit works? God says, My thoughts are higher than your thoughts” Isaiah 55:9 Such an arrogant way to think in the face of God.
Yes, Mark 16:16 says: "Whoever believes and is baptized will be saved, but whoever does not believe will be condemned." Baptism is for those who believe, if you look through all of scripture, people are saved by grace and then baptized. The order is never in reverse. I understand that when parents baptize infants, they feel like they are being faithful to the Lord and doing as he commanded. But when you are in the presence of the Lord you won't say, "Can you please honor my parents wishes for me?" God only has children of God, not grandchildren or great grandchildren. You can't rest on the laurels of your parents. The Lord commands you to be baptized by your own faith. Using "household" as a reason to baptize your infant just seems like nitpicking to fit your narrative. If you look at the Jesus himself he wasn't baptized till about 30!
I LOVE AND APPRECIATE CHARLES STANLEY GREATLY BUT THERE ARE MANY VERSES SAY IF WE ARE BAPTIZED, WE ARE SAVED. HERE ARE A FEW MARK 16:16 He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned. Act 2:38-39 KJV] 38 Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost. 39 For the promise is unto you, and to your children, and to all that are afar off, [even] as many as the Lord our God shall call. [Gal 3:27 KJV] 27 For as many of you as have been baptized into Christ have put on Christ. [Act 22:16 KJV] 16 And now why tarriest thou? arise, and be baptized, and wash away thy sins, calling on the name of the Lord. 1Pe 3:21 The like figure whereunto [even] baptism doth also now save us (not the putting away of the filth of the flesh, but the answer of a good conscience toward God,) by the resurrection of Jesus Christ:
@@brendanjobe6895 Most preachers and most "denominations" are. My bride and I have been kicked out of churches and even been called heretics for simply quoting (or copying & pasting) what the Bible actually says about Baptism. Like many other issues, they prefer what IS NOT WRITTEN over WHAT IS WRITTEN IN GOD'S WORD
@@carlpaulino9412 Correct. Or they will go into unbelievable twists and gyrations to get around it. There are churches, however, that believe exactly what you believe on the subject of baptism. The Church of Christ is one. Very, very few - if any - Baptist Churches ever teach the truth on baptism. Adrian Rogers would get close, so close that one would think he would just about to get there. Then he'd back away, bound by the Baptist Manual. At least I can say that the Church of Christ uses no official manual, no creed book, no confession of faith, etc. There was a time, 150 years ago, when a Baptist preacher would baptize a person for the remission of sins. That time is long past.
@@brendanjobe6895 Amen Brendan. We attended a Church of Christ many years ago. That's where we learned the significance of Baptism. We were shocked to READ WHAT THE BIBLE ACTUALLY SAYS ABOUT IT. . . .after hearing what is preached about it (doctrines of men) for so many years. I have no idea why they fight against what is WRITTEN so vehemently but it is very disconcerting for those who are led in the "sinners prayer" each week instead. More recently we discovered that the "Christian Church" believes in the scriptural meaning and significance of Baptism. Maybe not "all" of them but many to most of them!

Acts 2:37-38
Now when they heard this they were cut to the heart, and said to Peter and the rest of the apostles, “Brothers, what shall we do?” And Peter said to them, “Repent and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins, and you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit. (Does he believe that you're saved without your sins being forgiven?)
It puts us in Christ!
Galatians 3:27
For as many of you as were baptized into Christ have put on Christ. (Perhaps he believes putting on Christ isn't important?)
I notice he didn't site this verse.
"Saves us "
I Peter 3:21
Baptism, which corresponds to this, now saves you, not as a removal of dirt from the body but as an appeal to God for a good conscience, through the resurrection of Jesus Christ,
There are many other verses that address the topic that he didn't cover. I understand why the people are so confused because he talked abiut how important it is and then says you're still saved without it!
I'm not in any way saying that there is something powerful in the water but there is power in our obedience! I suggest you look at everything the scriptures say not just picking a few verses to make points that fit your doctrine.
Finally, remember that this verse doesn't make the other veses null and void.
Eph 2:8
For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God:
Act 2:38
im confused. It never says anywhere in the bible that you have to be baptized, but god commands that you get baptized as a proof that you are saved.
It does
Read the book of acts you will understand clearly about baptism 💖
Acts 2:38 John 3:5
@@napiyerjaque2599 He pretty much avoids the book of Acts for that very reason.
He said ^lets see what the Bible teaches" then he overlooked so many important scriptures on the topic.
1. He said that baptism different than salvation.
Jesus said.
Mark 16:16
Whoever believes and is baptized will be saved, but whoever does not believe will be condemned.

we are saved by believing in christ--today we are baptized by the blood of Jesus....water baptism is sin and never needed---water baptism was only a shadow of christ--by believing in christ we are washed and forgiven and cleansed before God---water baptism does not cleanse anyone of sin
In Romans 6:3_7 " Do you not know that all of us who have been baptized into Christ Jesus were baptized into His death? We were buried therefore with Him just as Christ. Was raised from the dead by the glory of the Father, we too might walk in newness of life. For if we have been united with Him in a death like his, we shall certainly be united with him in a resurrection like His. We know that our old self was crucified with Him in order that the body of sin might be brought to nothing, so that we would no longer be enslaved to sin. Sorry baptism is need to be saved and put into a new life by dying to the old life.
Go to Galatians 3:26-28
For in Christ Jesus you are all sons of God through faith. For as many of you were baptized into Christ have put on Christ. There is neither Jew or Greek, is no male or female, for you are all one inChrist Jesus.
With faith in Jesus Christ and being baptized for the remission of sins you become a child of God and placed into Christ.
@@bscott69kareoke baptism yes---but not water baptism. true baptism is believing in christ that he is God, we are baptized by living water not physical water
@@brianmessinger3984 it is water baptism that one comes into contact with the blood of Christ. The one baptism described in Ephesians 4 is water baptism and not Holy Spirit baptism. Study more in Acts to see that this was the mode of baptism that was used.
@@bscott69kareoke yes Amen 💖
Baptism comes before salvation. Jesus said
What about getting rebaptised....
Mr Stanley seems to be infected by the terrible false teaching of the Baptists. They rob baptism of its spiritual significance. But it is simple: In Christ one is on the way of salvation and the only way to get in Christ is to believe, repent and be baptized in Him, in other words, being immersed in His name (provided there is enough water available). That is the pure and simple truth of God's design.
Your not saved until after baptism. You don’t accept Jesus then he saves you the. You are baptized
That’s not what Jesus taught
The lord said. He Thst believe and is baptized will be saved.
At the 7:40 mark he lies and says baptism follows salvation and the bible mentions nowhere that baptism saves us please read these passage from.
1 Peter 3:21-22 New King James Version (NKJV)
There is also an antitype which now saves us-baptism (not the removal of the filth of the flesh, but the answer of a good conscience toward God), through the resurrection of Jesus Christ, who has gone into heaven and is at the right hand of God, angels and authorities and powers having been made subject to Him.
Mark 16:15-16
New International Version
15 He said to them, “Go into all the world and preach the gospel to all creation. 16 Whoever believes and is baptized will be saved, but whoever does not believe will be condemned.
Mark 16:16 “He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved”
1Corinthians 7:14
Acts 10, Acts 16, Acts 18, 1Corinthians 1
Entire families were baptized and infants are part of families. Who are we to question the mysterious ways in which the Holy Spirit works? God says, My thoughts are higher than your thoughts” Isaiah 55:9 Such an arrogant way to think in the face of God.
Yes, Mark 16:16 says: "Whoever believes and is baptized will be saved, but whoever does not believe will be condemned." Baptism is for those who believe, if you look through all of scripture, people are saved by grace and then baptized. The order is never in reverse. I understand that when parents baptize infants, they feel like they are being faithful to the Lord and doing as he commanded. But when you are in the presence of the Lord you won't say, "Can you please honor my parents wishes for me?" God only has children of God, not grandchildren or great grandchildren. You can't rest on the laurels of your parents. The Lord commands you to be baptized by your own faith. Using "household" as a reason to baptize your infant just seems like nitpicking to fit your narrative. If you look at the Jesus himself he wasn't baptized till about 30!
I LOVE AND APPRECIATE CHARLES STANLEY GREATLY BUT THERE ARE MANY VERSES SAY IF WE ARE BAPTIZED, WE ARE SAVED. HERE ARE A FEW
MARK 16:16 He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned.
Act 2:38-39 KJV] 38 Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost. 39 For the promise is unto you, and to your children, and to all that are afar off, [even] as many as the Lord our God shall call.
[Gal 3:27 KJV] 27 For as many of you as have been baptized into Christ have put on Christ.
[Act 22:16 KJV] 16 And now why tarriest thou? arise, and be baptized, and wash away thy sins, calling on the name of the Lord.
1Pe 3:21 The like figure whereunto [even] baptism doth also now save us (not the putting away of the filth of the flesh, but the answer of a good conscience toward God,) by the resurrection of Jesus Christ:
It is unfortunate that Mr. Stanley, an excellent speaker, remains so mixed up on the subject of baptism.

Most preachers and most "denominations" are. My bride and I have been kicked out of churches and even been called heretics for simply quoting (or copying & pasting) what the Bible actually says about Baptism. Like many other issues, they prefer what IS NOT WRITTEN over WHAT IS WRITTEN IN GOD'S WORD
@@carlpaulino9412 Correct. Or they will go into unbelievable twists and gyrations to get around it. There are churches, however, that believe exactly what you believe on the subject of baptism. The Church of Christ is one. Very, very few - if any - Baptist Churches ever teach the truth on baptism. Adrian Rogers would get close, so close that one would think he would just about to get there. Then he'd back away, bound by the Baptist Manual. At least I can say that the Church of Christ uses no official manual, no creed book, no confession of faith, etc. There was a time, 150 years ago, when a Baptist preacher would baptize a person for the remission of sins. That time is long past.
@@brendanjobe6895
Amen Brendan. We attended a Church of Christ many years ago. That's where we learned the significance of Baptism. We were shocked to READ WHAT THE BIBLE ACTUALLY SAYS ABOUT IT. . . .after hearing what is preached about it (doctrines of men) for so many years. I have no idea why they fight against what is WRITTEN so vehemently but it is very disconcerting for those who are led in the "sinners prayer" each week instead.
More recently we discovered that the "Christian Church" believes in the scriptural meaning and significance of Baptism. Maybe not "all" of them but many to most of them!
typical Baptists always taking notes. I would prefer to focus on Bro Stanley rather than writing.
Did not the Lord's disciples take notes ? Probably. The reason why they are taking notes is evident that they are listening 😃
They need to take notes and determine if he is following the scriptures. I like him but he ignores so many passages and facts on this topic.
