😃😃😃😃My Baptism at Myrtle Beach Kickstart was Powerful!!! Had Encounter with Jesus , crying and one of the things I said I wanted to bury was every person that touched me when I was little and while crying while encounter with Jesus I saw a vision and it was me when I was 5 years old , dead in a coffin. God buried the fear of man without me asking and I ran up on stage that night so full of Jesus Spirit in me . I couldn't even contain HIS SPIRIT in me for days! I was like...I'm your bride ! I'm your bride!! Baptism, Bury The Old Man! Collisions. I saw that in the word after my baptism and was SO excited because it's biblical and that's Exactly what happened to me 🙏🏼😭😃 EVERYTHING of Jesus is backed up Biblically!! His word is True and Alive!
@@lorirode-off yes, such a nice baptism story indeed!! One NEVER to forget!! Though I also think that Angela had a very hard background and needed a lot of healing. I don't think that everyone's baptism story will be as spectacular. Though, it would be very cool if everyone would meet Jesus in a "vision" :D -I'm the first in line... ;) Thank you for the testimony Angela! It is a very strong one and once and again shows how powerfull baptism can be, thank you!!
There is more blood and water in the story. First Jesus crossed over the brook Kidron, which was full of blood that came from the Passah lambs slain at the temple. Then Jesus sweat water and blood while he was praying in the garden. Then Pilate washed the blood of Jesus off his hands. And finally there was water flowing with the blood from his broken heart.
I need to listen to this a few times, after years of studying and teaching traditional teaching . Faith in Christ saves and baptism is symbolic of what has already happened inside. I was alone when Jesus spoke to me and surrendered to him I was not attending any church and didn't for a which but was so in love with Jesus. I didn't get baptized until much time later.
I think this is the same with many of us. I understood freedom from sin a loong time before I was baptized. I still got baptized because I saw it as obeying Christ. Most people I see like these 4 doing the podcast got baptized and struggle with sin for many years until they got the revelation of the truth that Christ's blood has set us free from sin and therefore we do not have to walk in it any longer. FREED FROM SINS Revelation 1:5 ESV And from Jesus Christ the faithful witness, the firstborn of the dead, and the ruler of kings on earth. To him who loves us and has freed us from our sins by his blood. Be blessed my brother 🙏
@@bobthrasher8226 My point exactly. Believing the truth found in the Word of God set me free from sin, not the act of being dunked under water by a man. Be blessed my brother 🙌
Just as physical birth is the end result of a process so is spiritual rebirth. Water baptism is an important part of that process. Acts 2:38 is that process Also water baptism is the antitype of the old covenants cleansing of the temple in preparation for the Holy Spirit entry with blood and water. If water baptism is only symbolic why did the disciples in Acts ch.19 havd to be water baptized by Paul before they recieved the Holy Spirit ?
This is brilliant!!!! Praise the Lord!! I have never heard the entire gospel preached like this. Solid, in context, the entire gospel in beautiful power and simple truth that sets free!! And you shall hear the truth and the truth shall set you free! Thank you Jesus!!
These podcasts are great! So rich with teaching. I'm thankful for my Friday night study sessions with you guys! I'm gonna have to listen to this one again there is so much to take in!
This is by far the best educational video I have ever seen. For i thought I was living in Christ but I must first die with Christ. Amazing thank you guys keep up the good news...
When your baptized in the name of Jesus Christ god is well pleased that you've become buried with him. In the watery grave born again of holy water washes your Sins away obey Acts 2 38
Mind blowing! i really enjoy the teaching.i need to watch this over again.it really appease my soul.praise the name of the Lord.thumbs up 👍 to you guys
There are two types of works Works of the law - self justification Works of faith - works that precede from faith Baptism is a work of faith - it is not something we do to "earn" our justification. It is something we do because of the work of Christ on the cross. It is not a work, it is a death sentence! Come on, loved this teaching!
Hi Torben! Great podcast, great subject. We met first in London 2017 and briefly in Aalborg (last PTS group there). God told me to start a study on baptism in early 2017, starting with Noah, Moses and Jonah. Five years on and I am still seeing new things. There is great depth in baptism! Any study of baptism must begin with the fact that the word 'baptize' is a transliteration of the Greek baptizo. The authors if the KJV didn't want to upset the establishment, which had by that time replaced baptizing with sprinkling. And so instead of translating to 'immersion' (as in the CJB) or 'washing', they invented a new word, 'baptize' - baptizo with an e instead of an o. Here is a quote from the Preface to the KJV... "Lastly, we have on the one side avoided the scrupulosity of the Puritans, who leave the old Ecclesiastical words, and betake them to other, as when they put washing for Baptism, and Congregation instead of Church:" Introducing 'baptize' into the English language was a great move from the devil. It allowed Christians of different convictions to interpret the word either as 'immersion' or 'sprinkling', thereby keeping everyone happy in so far as the sprinklers could continue sprinkling and the immersers could continue immersing, and everyone would be 'baptized' regardless.
Hello dear brothers, I am a missionary, working in the field, among refugees and local people. We here baptize people right away, when they have repented. We explain what baptism is (from Rom 6, Col 2, 1 Peter 3 and of course Acts). The way I explain it in short is that baptism DOES save a person FROM THE OLD LIFE. (The greek verb "Save" is not restricted in just "receiving forgiveness" in the Bible. It means deliver, it includes physical healing many times, etc. I am Greek so it is easy to find out). The question in my mind is this: We have elderly people around, (even relatives) that they can barely walk. There is no way that I can get in the sea with them. How do you deal with situations like this? It just feels like placing a demand on them to "get in the water" somewhere in order for them to receive FULL SALVATION is just very difficult. I would appreciate your thoughts. BTW these Videos/Podcasts are really really good! We bless you for doing them. Grace and peace in Christ Jesus
Why Paul said that ? 1Cor1:16And I baptized also the household of Stephanas: besides, I know not whether I baptized any other. 17For Christ sent me not to baptize, but to preach the gospel: not in wisdom of words, lest the cross of Christ should be made void.18For the word of the cross is to them that are perishing foolishness; but unto us which are being saved it is the power of God.
@@alexisdaniel3313 Paul is defending the gospel. To help understand read Jn1:25 'Why do you baptize if you are not the Christ'. Preachers were becoming famous. There was division. Men were starting to follow the preacher ' I am of Paul, etc. Paul is speaking in this way to show it is 'Christ alone', not Paul, or any other minister. But Christ! He is making this Plain, just as John the Baptist did.
Glory Hallelujah... for the truth from his saints to share more of His word and bring it too action. I stand with your belief, because I went through this same process in 2016 and now I still am walking in faith in His truth. Blessings and keep spreading the truth of his word and the good new.
Not sure about teaching that the blood is applied during water baptism. The blood is applied by faith, as shown in Acts 10 with Cornelius and his household. The baptism in the Holy Spirit is only for the saved. When Peter saw that they had been accepted by God he then commanded that they be water baptized. I am with you on the power in water baptism. I have witnessed it and participated in it several times, and it is clearly taught in the scriptures. However, I think you are reaching beyond the clear teaching of scripture when you say that the blood is applied through the baptism. I love TLR and have been following you for years. Even attended a kickstart in Michigan with Mark and Jeremy and it was awesome. However, I am going to have to hold you to your own standard of the plain teaching of scripture on this one my brothers.
Yeah that’s a stumbling block for me as well I’m not to sure about the whole, the blood doesn’t apply until your baptized. I’m still praying on it tho especially the whole acts 2:38 Romans 3:24-25 being justified freely by His grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus, 25 whom God set forth as a propitiation by His blood, through faith, to demonstrate His righteousness, because in His forbearance God had passed over the sins that were previously committed, 26 to demonstrate at the present time His righteousness, that He might be just and the justifier of the one who has faith in Jesus. Romans 4:23-25 Now it was not written for his sake alone that it was imputed to him, but also for us. It shall be imputed to us who believe in Him who raised up Jesus our Lord from the dead, who was delivered up because of our offenses, and was raised because of our justification.
In 1 Peter 3:21 it is the flood that symbolizes baptism - not baptism that symbolizes the flood! The flood was the metaphor in that case while baptism is the "real deal."
Exactly, Bob! I was just having a conversation with someone recently who misunderstood the verse in the same way. I understand the confusion because if you come into it believing that baptism is a symbol, when you read that verse it’s almost like there’s a “theological dyslexia” where you get it backward.
I attended a Kickstart recently and was taught there that a person can sincerely believe in Jesus Christ and repent, and even be baptized. But if they only understood that baptism to be symbolic, as an outward display of their faith, they are still on the road to hell. Since then I’ve been listening to more TLR teachings on baptism, and doing my best to set aside my religious glasses and explore the Scriptures for myself on this topic. I was hoping this video would address that specific teaching, but it stopped short. Evan in his final thoughts eluded to it, but that’s it.
I do think that we should always include “in the name of Jesus Christ” when quoting Acts 2:38. Taking out His name for the sake of time constraints? I don’t think that some intentionally do that, but we mustn’t neglect His centrality. I hope that we can all agree on this point and make this change. Especially because Acts 2:38 is so essential to this movement. ♥️♥️♥️✝️♥️♥️♥️ I love my brothers and sisters at TLR so much, and I don’t want them to be misunderstood! Thank you for all your works of agapae love, beloved TLR & disciples! I love you! I love you! I love you! 💖🛐
Hello Team.. A small request: Will it be possible to have a healing prayer in the end for say 5 - 10 mins for the viewers to be delivered from health issues (in one of the podcasts)? You are blessed with the LOrd's anointing. Thank You in advance.
This podcast is a game changer and I really like the way that you share the gospel of Christ at the end of each podcase in this one it is at 1:26:00. Continue to do God's work and spread the true message of the Gospel! #ThisIsReal
Excellent discussion, brothers! Please allow me to show there is an important Scriptural distinction between salvation of our SPIRIT and salvation of our SOUL… Our repentance and water baptism bring salvation of our SPIRIT, which is a free gift, not by works. Jesus Himself taught that He will raise/resurrect all who believe in Him on the “last day” (John 6:39,40,44,54). They will be part of the New Jerusalem of Rev. Chs. 21 and 22. Hallelujah! Now, all four Gospels record our Lord emphasizing that His disciples can receive salvation of our SOULS (Greek = psuche, often mistranslated life) in the next age (the Millennial Kingdom) by “losing” (denying) them now this age (study using Greek Interlinear Bibles Matt. 16:25-27; Mark 8:35-38; Luke 9:23-26; John 12:24-28). Salvation of our SOULS requires we do the Spirit-led works of the Father (emphasized by Jesus multiple times, and also in Hebrews and by James and Peter). Salvation of our souls is the REWARD promised throughout the NT to disciples who suffer with Christ and persevere; it is the inheritance, the prized first resurrection that Paul sought so hard to attain (Phil. 3:11-14) - the race he sought to win (1Cor. 9:24 - 10:12, which Torbin even referred to). This prize/reward of salvation of our souls is reigning with Christ during His imminent 1,000 year Kingdom on earth, which our Lord taught NOT ALL will be counted worthy to obtain (see Luke 12:34-36; Rev. 20:4-6; and Rev. Chs. 2&3 for starters). Blessings to all who study this out!
Errata: Second to last line, Luke 20:34-36 is first Scripture listed above where Jesus teaches not all will be considered worthy to take part in the age to come [Millennial Kingdom], not Ch 12 😊
In 1 Peter 3:21 the "lifting" of the boat heavenward by the water was a prefiguring of Christ's ascension. The reason Christ was raised and ascended to heaven to God was because he was righteous just as Noah was righteous. We PARTICIPATE in Christ's resurrection (and burial) by baptism which enables us to live a new, righteous, life. It is a righteous life which leads to eternal life - Rom 6:22.
I was baptized after I got saved years later and I was a believer. How do we discern when a person should be baptized again? I didn’t have a “crazy” experience. I did have more deliverance, ect after baptism through the years. How do I validate my baptism? Idk if the devil is trying to make me doubt here. I don’t live in continual sin either. Praise god I have been set free. But just curious
If when we cast out demons we have to say in the name of Jesus Christ I command you to "come out" to cast them out; then I would think - in reading the sciptures - that we need to say I baptise you in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of sins and you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit. Reminder we now know all about Jesus especially in the Western world - but in those days (2 thousand years ago) the gentile world never heard of him - and they worshipped many false gods - with their own names (the greeks and romans for example). So the name of Jesus would have to be used during baptism amid a very, very pagan society.
The "sanctification" in Eph 5 is about setting the bride apart (for marriage) from "the world" and not cleansing - the cleansing in that passage is in the past tense ("having washed" by water by the word) before Jesus "gives himself" in marriage - washing comes before the wedding. Jesus says he "sanctified" himself in John 17 for the same purpose - to set himself apart for his bride.
Just what I have been sharing with others in the last couple of years. Before that I could not articulate exactly what the power was in baptism to set a person free from the fleshly nature/sinful nature/dead works. Somehow there has been a lack of clear understanding on what the necessity for baptism meant. Thanks for this. I am goung to listen to it again later to catch anything more that Ive missed.
Baptism is part of sanctification. It is part of our ongoing walk with Christ. It is not part of justification/new birth. We are born again by believing, as Jesus said. Justified by faith in Christ alone as Paul repeatedly states. Don't mix up justification/regeneration/new birth is totally different from sanctification/being set apart/made pure. Justification is by faith in Christ alone we are legally made right with God. Sanctification we are told to fight and battle and obey and work. Our eternal inheritance is secured by Christ alone, not shared with the work of baptism. Paul is clear, if you add any work to faith in Christ for justification, you have fallen from grace. This is heresy from the pit
@@PowerintheBlood I believe that you are missing the significance and power behind baptism. Jesus said "I tell you the truth, noone can enter the kingdom of God unless he is born of water and the Spirit". He couldnt be any clearer. Salvation is gaining entry into Christ, by whom we enter a new life, by death to self/sin/flesh, and the miracle of regeneration with a new heart and spirit, and the Spirit of God Himself entering our heart to do these things, Ezekiel 36:25-27. Romans chapter 6 also makes it clear that baptism follows a choice to repent and die to the sinful nature, having faith the God can raise us from this death, into new life IN CHRIST, a new creature, led by the Spirit now, in righteousness. This is the way which is eternal life IN CHRIST, redeemed, regenerate, sanctified and being sanctified; saved and being saved; righteous and being made righteous; dead and yet suddenly truly alive! A moment and a lifetime, and then the culmination when Jesus comes again. A miracle. A feat of God and not of man. Not an achievement of man, but of God. A mystery, yet made known to His own.
@@suzannegriffiths4795 yes born of the Word. Ephesians 5 clearly shows what this water is 25 Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ also loved the church and gave Himself for her, 26 that He might sanctify and cleanse her with the washing of water by the word, 27 that He might present her to Himself a glorious church, not having spot or wrinkle or any such thing, but that she should be holy and without blemish. Jesus said that He has living water. This is the inward regeneration. Titus 3 5 not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to His mercy He saved us, through the washing of regeneration and renewing of the Holy Spirit, 6 whom He poured out on us abundantly through Jesus Christ our Savior, 7 that having been justified by His grace we should become heirs according to the hope of eternal life. 1 Peter 3 21 There is also an antitype which now saves us-baptism (*not the removal of the filth of the flesh* *not water baptism but the washing of regeneration by faith*, but the answer of a good conscience toward God), through the resurrection of Jesus Christ, Can't be simpler than this. Don't put your faith in ritual or physical water. Put your faith in Christ and the Spirit of Life
@@suzannegriffiths4795 you are right that baptism follows the choice to follow Christ (repentance) but it is not that choice. It is a work of obedience that will follow in the life of any born again believer. Just like how Jesus says, "if you love me, keep my commandments." We don't keep His commandments in order to love Him, we keep His commandments because we love Him
@@PowerintheBlood to me that really isnt the point. I follow the commandments of God not just because I love God, but also because He changed me, enabling me to be obedient. Without His enabling, I would not be able to obey no matter how hard I tried. Same with baptism. Without dying, I cant be born again. Believing results in faith, resulting in true righteousness because He changed my heart. otherwise I couldnt be righteous, or even know what that is. It is the inspiration, power and enabling of the Spirit within which even makes any of this salvation and sanctification possible for those who believe.
Baptism in water is absolutely important and something everyone should do. But to say that you can't enter heaven if you're not baptised in water(referring John 3:5), even though you've confessed Him as your lord and saviour - is not as clear as we might think. How can i say that and where is my evidence? In John 3:5 Jesus says born, not baptised - however being born could have the same meaning as being baptised since the baptism is to die with chirst and to rise with christ aka being born again. Me personally think this is what it means. But there's an example of a person who got to heaven (was saved) without being baptised in water, and that is the man who hanged on the cross next to Jesus (luke 23:43). With that alone we can see that Jesus has ways we don't fully understand. We (humans) have a tendency to over complicate things. Here's my two cents. All who confess Jesus as their lord and saviour should also be baptised in water becasue that is what the Word says, end of story. But to say that if you don't get baptised in water you won't be able to enter heaven is something we should be really careful of saying. Because there are situations like in luke 23:43 where people receive jesus minutes before their deaths and saying that those people wont get into heaven because they didn't get baptised in water is something i personally dont belive in.
I’ve always wondered why in Matthew 28, Jesus says, “in the Name of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.” And in Acts, Peter says to be baptized in the Name of Jesus Christ.
@@TheLastReformation thank you very much. This is confirmation for me. I’ve always questioned being baptized like how Matthew 28 says, vs what we read in Acts and the epistles. I believe that “name” in Matthew 28, in the name of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, it’s singular, not plural. He didn’t say names, but name, that’s why In Acts they baptized in the name of Jesus Christ! Hallelujah! Thank you guys, and God bless!
Want to praise the Lord on the day of my baptism he revealed to my this, I told my children that I am now being prepared as a bride washed and cleansed for the wedding day. Then one of my born again friends through a word of wisdom confirmed this through the Word. Why was Jesus first miracle at a wedding and why the water to 🍷 wine? When you repent and choose to follow Jesus you now his bride to be.The water was to clean the bride for the bridegroom as was tradition in the Jewish culture. The wine is symbol of His blood cleansing us from sin. Hallelujah praise the Lord. In baptism we are now cleansed by his blood and come out clean and can now be free from the bonded to sin betrothed to Him, Jesus. With the first miracle Jesus revealed the entire gospel. Now the bride eagerly await the returning of the Bridegroom People that is still love sin of this world would like to use this miracle to say Jesus change the water into wine and he then I can still drink. What a ly of satan. Be blessed to all the saints of TLR. Keep on walking in the Spirit
Some time ago I read a passage in the old testament while I was looking for answers about my baptism. The text said something about some feast (passah?) or something with some people not being cleansed properly. And there were other clean ones who prayed for the unclean ones that God will see them as clean and God had mercy on them because their hearts were pure... something like that. Is there maybe someone who knows the bible better than I do and can tell where that text can be found? 😅
i think the problem is people are not reading the bible fully becasue when i met jesus , i read the bible and read people got baptised and simply concluded that i also need to be baptised...its so simple when you just read the bible...but if you dont read it and just read odd scriptures and listen more to traditions of the church at the same time..you will follow the traditions of man.....also why wouldnt you want to be baptised....if you want jesus you will do it...to please Him
The Apostolic movement Acts 2 38 started in USA in 1914 in Los angeles.many trinitarian minister rebaptized themselves in the. Name of Jesus Christ at Arroyo seco camp meeting then the new issue began hit protestant Christianity real hard to be truely baptized right and preaching the true Gospel of Salvation
Thank you brothers in Christ!! I've never heard such a clear teaching about baptism! Now everythig everything falls into place and IT MAKES SO MUCH SENSE!!! Hallelujah! Though also scary to realise the consequences of bad teaching/-ers :o
I've heard stories about death bed repentance they believe the idea of the thief on the cross he repented at the cross so a man dying from cancer or aids or whatever these people were to busy with material and Mamon or work alcoholic they decided to call on the lord
I was baptized as an infant and became protestant. I decided to keep my first baptism and accept salvation and my freedom from sin...I accept it like the Jews accepted circumcision. I learn to identify with my creator as I grow.
Here's something I saw recently, the difference between John's baptism and being baptised into Jesus. Jews came to John, confessed their sins and were baptised. They were then told to follow Jesus, because He is Salvation. Were those who were baptised forgiven their sins? Yes. Just like David and the people of Nineveh and anyone else who repented were forgiven in the OT. But were the saved? No. They still had a sinful nature, which is why Nineveh was eventually destroyed, despite being forgiven after Jonah's visit. The baptism into Jesus is different. Scripture tells us that we are forgiven AND delivered or set free, that is, SAVED from sin and death. We are stripped of our sinful nature, which is our propensity to sin whether we want to or not, as we are united in Jesus's death, which is the death we should die, but don't because He died instead of us - - - and this is the 'washing away of sin' that saves us from our broken sinful nature. One big problem is that many Christians never say what we are saved FROM. They say we are saved, the assumption being we are going to Heaven. But being saved only means something when you state what you are saved FROM. A person sinking in a river can be saved FROM drowning. A person in a burning house can be saved FROM fire. A person held hostage can be saved FROM death. Etc. We are saved FROM sin and death, because Jesus served the death sentence for sin on our behalf.
Thanks for the podcast guys! Question? If I knew someone that after I shared the gospel with them they responded by crying out to the Lord "Have mercy on me Jesus! I am a sinner! I repent of my sins and ask you to come and wash me clean, save me make me your home!" Was he at that point cleansed of his sins , "born again", and considered a son of God. Or did this only happen 2 days later when we baptized him? Thanks for your response 👍
Try see this one ruclips.net/video/BwmSMO7axVk/видео.html You as the wrong question because you don’t see that salvation is more that going to heaven. I myself are not fully saved yet. But one day 🙏
@@angelagrant2943 I'm not sure the people in this "movement" understand the difference between PAST SALVATION=Justification Romans 8:24 New King James Version For we WERE SAVED in this hope, but hope that is seen is not hope; for why does one still hope for what he sees? 2 Timothy 1:9 [9]Who HATH SAVED US, and called us with an holy calling, not according to our works, but according to his own purpose and grace, which was given us in Christ Jesus before the world began, PRESENT SALVATION = Sanctification 2 Corinthians 2:15 New King James Version For we are to God the fragrance of Christ among those who are BEING SAVED and among those who are perishing. FUTURE SALVATION = Glorification Romans 13:11 [11]And that, knowing the time, that now it is high time to awake out of sleep: for now is our salvation nearer than when we believed. Hebrews 1:14 [14]Are they not all ministering spirits, sent forth to minister for them who SHALL BE heirs of salvation? 1 Peter 1:5 [5]Who are kept by the power of God through faith unto salvation ready to be revealed in the last time. So we see a present salvation I am saved! But also a saving process called sanctification where God is purifying our souls(mind will emotions) And also a future salvation which we are kept for by us remaining in faith in Christ crucified. This is a great study I suggest we all look into. 😊 What a depressing though for me for any "Christian" including the leader of TLR to not have present assurance of salvation and be teaching others they cannot either 😥 Be blessed my sister in Christ 🤗
Paul said that we would be judged by the gospel he preached. We are are baptized into the body by the Holy Spirit. If water baptism is a requirement for salvation then no death bed conversions ever happened. No letter of Paul's indicate the requirement of water baptism.
When a believer, according to Acts 2 :38, repents and is water baptized in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, the Holy Spirit, because of the shed blood of Christ, remits our sins by circumcizing our conscience, removing thr guilt from past sins, and restoring its original childlike sensitivity to sin. This is the " washing of regeneration"(Titus 3:5). The Word " regeneration defined means to," return something to its original state". The remission of sins, or removal of guilt, is what the Lord meant when He told the people that, " Unless you become as little children and be converted you will in no wise enter the kingdom of heaven" ( Matt.18:13) We can't become as little children again, of course, as far as size ,but we can as far as innocence of conscience.
A clean conscience comes from living a righteous life - baptism is a necessary "tool" to help us live that life. We are going to be judged, in part, from our conscience's testimony - see Romans 2.
Here is one example to be careful which Bible we read. This is from King James, which again is from received texts. You can make up your own mind as to why all catholic approved Bibles have this edited out and watered down: 1. John 5:5-8 (5)Who is he that overcometh the world, but he that believeth that Jesus is the Son of God? (6)This is he that came by water and blood, even Jesus Christ; not by water only, but by water and blood. And it is the Spirit that beareth witness, because the Spirit is truth. (7)For there are three that bear record in heaven, the Father, the Word, and the Holy Ghost: and these three are one. (8)And there are three that bear witness in earth, the Spirit, and the Water, and the blood: and these three agree in one. In Matthew 24:28 Jesus mentions "For wheresoever the carcase is, there will the eagles be gathered together" I have not found direct connection between baptism and this verse, but the thaught I got from this, is the fact Jesus described there, and that the eagle is a scavenger. Also Jesus paralells birds eating the seed by the road. Since it is universal truth, that where the carcases are, the scavengers show up, there may be some link to the unburried dead body, and the birds (thaughts) eating it up, so there may not be any body left to bury later. Just speculation, but read 1. John 5:8 and check the received text and compare it to the Bible you read. This was important enough for the Vatican ministry of disinformation to change
Most churches and protestantism our loophole religion people looking for discount it's like shopping instead of going to Macy's go to Walmart or target they don't want to give up worldly things of life they want to be social drinkers, go dancing , gamble, no repentance , no works no prayer it's to old fashion they don't want to give up the old ways their party crowd or the Hollywood crowd
According to Christ (Matt.12: 43) unclean spirits do seek out people in dry, waterless places to rest in (to possess). If we ruled out a literal significance of water in relation to unclean spirits then we're left with water baptism as a mere symbolic ritual, which I seriously doubt was Jesus' intention. Worse still, many evangelicals mistakenly pit the act of water baptism as works against faith. But there is power in water baptism because it is a providence of God for salvation. Humans without God are in bondage of sin and we shouldn't be surprised if it's a bondage under unclean spirits. Surely water baptism in the name of Jesus is God's wonderful providence to facilitate the driving out of unclean spirits so that the Holy Spirit may now indwell a believer and sin can go into remission. To obey in water baptism is to submit in faith to the providence of God for salvation. The passage in Acts 2: 38 resonates the same meaning. “...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." God is good!
So I am very simple. If you were to come up to me and give me the gospel and I would repent and pray right there with you and then the next step would be what would your next step be how would you explain to me baptism this is a good teaching but when I’m trying to explain it to my son who has given his heart to the Lord but is struggling so much with anxiety and fear and I believe in from what I’ve seen of your videos that there is deliverance needed and we have prayed many times. And I’ve seen this and I wonder if this is what is the problem. How would you explain to me why the next step would be baptism and that amount of time not an hour or two hour teaching because we wouldn’t do that how would you explain it to a person that has just received Christ and repented of their sins?
Question to Torben: I want to ask something about this word "regeneration". What do you mean with this? Actually a while ago we had a guy that came into our fellowship that stood very firmly on "that The last reformation do not believe in baptism regeneration" so this means that TLR do not believe that baptism is part of being born again. It was actually the first time we were confronted with this word "regeneration". We looked it up in the strongs and saw that it meant "new birth". We showed him that Jesus said that a man can not enter into the kingdom of God if he is not BORN out of WATER and spirit.. This man got really upset with us and said that we are misinterpreting you because according to him you guys are not saying that baptism is part of being born again but we understand this as a crucial part of being born again/as the new birth. So technically Torben, I want to ask you, is it not so that baptism actually is part of regeneration? Or do you mean something different with the word "regeneration" ?
Hi, this is Ever from the podcast, there is a regeneration happening in water baptism. Think of it this way, we lost something from a previous generation and Jesus came to bring it back. In order to come into it, we need to be regenerated which is through a new birth. That which was lost was access to the throne of God because of the body of sin and the blood of Jesus was the answer to this problem. We receive the blood in baptism thus receiving freedom from the body of sin. However, none of this is possible without believing that Jesus is the answer to our problem. Once we believe and turn to God, then we have access to the blood and the grace His gives by removing the body of sin. So baptism does bring regeneration but not alone, it happens with faith and belief. Amen
That is damnable heresy 👆 it is saying that faith plus works equals justification. They pull this garbage off by denying that baptism is a work, which it clearly is... Duh. These guys have one of the most cunning doctrines of demons I've ever seen. Behind a nice smiling face
Brother Piotr Podobiński words.... Perversion of Water Baptism and the Gospel in TLR We all know that Torben often butchers the Bible without understanding of the deeper dynamics of the text, he regularly rips passages out of their context. One of the best examples of this is his usage of: Acts 2:38 (NET) "Peter said to them, “Repent, and each one of you be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins, and you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit." There is nothing wrong with this wonderful passage, all orthodox evangelicals agree that we should baptize "in the name of Father Son and Holy Spirit", water baptism is an external token of something that happens on the inside in your heart. Your spirit is born again trough faith in the Gospel (as in story of Cornelius where he is SAVED and Spirit filled in one instant after hearing words of the Gospel, before being water baptized!) In water baptism you get to experience profoundly in your soul and your body what has already happened in your heart, baptism is also a beautiful act of confession, every Christian should be baptized, there is zero disagreement about it in faithful Christian churches. What is wrong with Torben's teaching then? Firstly he changes definition of the Gospel, he often says "Gospel is repentance + water baptism + Spirit baptism"
Baptism has always been a. Big. Issue in religion or Christianity the mode , the age, the formula , traditional , I'm a Oneness believer most Oneness people believe that the book of Acts saints were. Oneness up into the council of nicea 325 Ad when Trinity developed people began to compromise
Of course they can. Repentance and faith save not baptism. What a bunch of Christ plus works Judaizing heresy that is. Read Romans and Galatians. It is faith alone in Christ alone apart from works any work any work
@@PowerintheBlood thank you, yes I read Galatians today and it clarified that Abraham's faith was accredited to him by faith and that it's the same for us, thank you, I knew this just wanted to to clarify that if someone truly repented on their death bed and didn't get the chance to get immersed in water that of course, the Lord would have mercy on them
Another observation. Those who think baptism is 'works to dalvation' do not see the supernatural in baptism. They see it only as a purely physical event. But the circumcision if the heart that occurs in baptism must be supernatural. It cannot be anything else. God is supernatural. He does supernatural things. Namaan was supernaturally healed from leprosy when he baptised himself seven times. So what is the problem with a supernatural God performing a supernatural heart operation in the water of a supernatural 'operating theatre' of His choosing? He is God after all. I cannot understand Christians who do not see the supernatural in God.
The only way the Apostles baptized was using the Name of Jesus. The only saving name is Jesus (Acts 4:12). James 2:7 AMP Is it not they who slander and blaspheme that precious name by which you are distinguished and called (the name of Christ invoked in baptism)?Col 3:17 And whatsoever ye do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God and the Father by him.
I love this verses I think it makes things so simple: 11It is just as the Scripture says: “Anyone who believes in Him will never be put to shame.”e 12For there is no difference between Jew and Greek: The same Lord is Lord of all, and gives richly to all who call on Him, 13for, “Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.”f Romans 10:11-13
The first time I was baptized at age 12 i was not saved...... only accepting Christ as your savior saves you! Baptism is your acknowledgement of salvation when you understand what it means. We are being saved as we work out or salvation with fear and trembling throughout our life! You sound legalistic!
You are right Liz. Read Romans and Galatians where Paul clearly states that salvation/justification/new birth comes by faith in Christ alone apart from works. He also states that if you try to add any work to faith in Christ, you are fallen from grace. These guys are stubbornly teaching damnable heresy after many repeated warnings
Another observation. The spirit of Cain did not want to obey God. He reconed that his rules and works were good enough. Offcourse any commandment of Jesus Christ, as in this discussion, will be attacked by the spirit of Cain, which was from the serpent and putting doubt in Eve about if God realy said they would die, and he added a falce promise temptation. Surely he is doing the same still. The rebellion the Bible has so many demonstrations of being active among humans.
@30:20 Egypt- The blood of the Lamb saved them, but they had to go through the water to get their enemies off of their backs! They were not free from their bondage to Egypt until they passed through the water. The Blood and the water! Woo hoo!
We, as followers of the Messiah can be mikvahed as we are led by the RYH HAQDSH ( Spirit, the Righteous). // Anyone reading this who is not saved, ask the Messiah to be your Savior. All have sinned and fallen short of the glory of Hayah (Romans 3:23). The wages for sin is death but the gift of ALaHYM is Everlasting Life through Messiah Yahushgh our Master (Romans 6:23). That if we confess with our mouth the Master Yahushgh and believe in our heart that ALaHYM raised Him from the dead, we shall be saved (Romans 10:9). And He Himself is an Atoning Offering for our sins, and not for ours only but also for all the world (1John 2:2).
Apparently, y'all have not heard of the dispensation of grace. We are not under the law and there are several scriptures that support that. Therefore, we have a different gospel than what noted in the four gospel and before the crucifixion. There is no conditions/works for our dispensation of grace. Our gospel is 1Cor. 15:1-4 and Eph 2:8-9. When Jesus said it was finish we can't add to that and say it's what we do, do, do. Salvation is what he done, done, done. You simply have to have faith and accept what He done.
@@TheLastReformation Christians do good works after and because they believe the gospel and still believe. Work such as sharing this gospel, helping the sick, feeding the poor..others. But, it is an insult to add or take away from the great crosswork wherein He shed His blood for our sins and gave it to us as a gift. In fact, Gal 1:8 gives a warning about use of a different gospel. (8) but though we, or an angel from heaven preach any other gospel than that which we have preached unto you, let him be accused.
Why Paul said that ? 1Cor1:16And I baptized also the household of Stephanas: besides, I know not whether I baptized any other. 17For Christ sent me not to baptize, but to preach the gospel: not in wisdom of words, lest the cross of Christ should be made void.18For the word of the cross is to them that are perishing foolishness; but unto us which are being saved it is the power of God.
Baptism in Jesus name is your wedding garment if you don't have a wedding garment you will be thrown out of the wedding reception in the book of Matthew there was an individual who hadn't a garment
INFANT BAPTISM IS JUSTIFIED according to the Scriptures. 1 Cor7:14; Children are holy under believeing parents. Mat19:14; The Kingdom of God belong to such as these Children says the Lord. The way I understand is every child is holy and righteous because they were created in the image of God. For that reason under believing parents their souls are safe. If they die they will go to heaven as Jesus said. Nevertheless as they grow up under the rule of the devil in this world, they sin. So they need to repent and be baptized in water and in the Holy Spirit.
No. 1 cor 7.14 and Matt 19 don’t talk about baptism. You put the word in. If you understood baptism in water you will see that infant can not get baptized I cover that here ruclips.net/video/kB-TE0PHz6c/видео.html
😃😃😃😃My Baptism at Myrtle Beach Kickstart was Powerful!!! Had Encounter with Jesus , crying and one of the things I said I wanted to bury was every person that touched me when I was little and while crying while encounter with Jesus I saw a vision and it was me when I was 5 years old , dead in a coffin. God buried the fear of man without me asking and I ran up on stage that night so full of Jesus Spirit in me . I couldn't even contain HIS SPIRIT in me for days! I was like...I'm your bride ! I'm your bride!! Baptism, Bury The Old Man! Collisions. I saw that in the word after my baptism and was SO excited because it's biblical and that's Exactly what happened to me 🙏🏼😭😃 EVERYTHING of Jesus is backed up Biblically!! His word is True and Alive!
Wonderful!!
This is what everyone should experience when being baptized according to the scriptures!
Thank you, Jesus!!
@@lorirode-off yes, such a nice baptism story indeed!! One NEVER to forget!! Though I also think that Angela had a very hard background and needed a lot of healing. I don't think that everyone's baptism story will be as spectacular. Though, it would be very cool if everyone would meet Jesus in a "vision" :D -I'm the first in line... ;)
Thank you for the testimony Angela! It is a very strong one and once and again shows how powerfull baptism can be, thank you!!
❤️
@@TimDHooge84 Thank you , brother. Yes I agree with what you share. Your comment really ministered to me . God bless you
@@lorirode-off Amen, love 💕 you sister. Jesus is our healer and deliverer.
Amen
When Jesus was pierced while on the cross, water & blood poured out.
There is more blood and water in the story.
First Jesus crossed over the brook Kidron, which was full of blood that came from the Passah lambs slain at the temple.
Then Jesus sweat water and blood while he was praying in the garden.
Then Pilate washed the blood of Jesus off his hands.
And finally there was water flowing with the blood from his broken heart.
Yes, I thought of this, too! Beautiful.
I need to listen to this a few times, after years of studying and teaching traditional teaching . Faith in Christ saves and baptism is symbolic of what has already happened inside. I was alone when Jesus spoke to me and surrendered to him I was not attending any church and didn't for a which but was so in love with Jesus. I didn't get baptized until much time later.
Yes. Do that. We also have other videos we link to in the text about this 🙏
I think this is the same with many of us. I understood freedom from sin a loong time before I was baptized.
I still got baptized because I saw it as obeying Christ.
Most people I see like these 4 doing the podcast got baptized and struggle with sin for many years until they got the revelation of the truth that Christ's blood has set us free from sin and therefore we do not have to walk in it any longer.
FREED FROM SINS
Revelation 1:5 ESV
And from Jesus Christ the faithful witness, the firstborn of the dead, and the ruler of kings on earth. To him who loves us and has freed us from our sins by his blood.
Be blessed my brother 🙏
I don't doubt your experience but we shouldn't build doctrine on experience. Baptism's primary benefit is to free us from the power of indwelling sin.
@@bobthrasher8226 My point exactly. Believing the truth found in the Word of God set me free from sin, not the act of being dunked under water by a man.
Be blessed my brother 🙌
Just as physical birth is the end result of a process so is spiritual rebirth. Water baptism is an important part of that process. Acts 2:38 is that process
Also water baptism is the antitype of the old covenants cleansing of the temple in preparation for the Holy Spirit entry with blood and water.
If water baptism is only symbolic why did the disciples in Acts ch.19 havd to be water baptized by Paul before they recieved the Holy Spirit ?
This is brilliant!!!! Praise the Lord!! I have never heard the entire gospel preached like this. Solid, in context, the entire gospel in beautiful power and simple truth that sets free!! And you shall hear the truth and the truth shall set you free! Thank you Jesus!!
These podcasts are great! So rich with teaching. I'm thankful for my Friday night study sessions with you guys! I'm gonna have to listen to this one again there is so much to take in!
Feeling the same! Am very thankful for this podcast.
Awesome!!
This is by far the best educational video I have ever seen. For i thought I was living in Christ but I must first die with Christ. Amazing thank you guys keep up the good news...
🙏 Yes! Come on!!
Very good point there. To be baptized in the name of Jesus is to be baptized in his authority. In my mind, that means he is personally involved
He is! He is personally involved in every baptism in His name!
Woooo!!!!
Exactly the point I was trying to make here! Thanks for sharing this! - Ever
When your baptized in the name of Jesus Christ god is well pleased that you've become buried with him. In the watery grave born again of holy water washes your Sins away obey Acts 2 38
Mind blowing! i really enjoy the teaching.i need to watch this over again.it really appease my soul.praise the name of the Lord.thumbs up 👍 to you guys
There are two types of works
Works of the law - self justification
Works of faith - works that precede from faith
Baptism is a work of faith - it is not something we do to "earn" our justification. It is something we do because of the work of Christ on the cross. It is not a work, it is a death sentence!
Come on, loved this teaching!
Hi Torben! Great podcast, great subject. We met first in London 2017 and briefly in Aalborg (last PTS group there). God told me to start a study on baptism in early 2017, starting with Noah, Moses and Jonah. Five years on and I am still seeing new things. There is great depth in baptism!
Any study of baptism must begin with the fact that the word 'baptize' is a transliteration of the Greek baptizo. The authors if the KJV didn't want to upset the establishment, which had by that time replaced baptizing with sprinkling. And so instead of translating to 'immersion' (as in the CJB) or 'washing', they invented a new word, 'baptize' - baptizo with an e instead of an o. Here is a quote from the Preface to the KJV...
"Lastly, we have on the one side avoided the scrupulosity of the Puritans, who leave the old Ecclesiastical words, and betake them to other, as when they put washing for Baptism, and Congregation instead of Church:"
Introducing 'baptize' into the English language was a great move from the devil. It allowed Christians of different convictions to interpret the word either as 'immersion' or 'sprinkling', thereby keeping everyone happy in so far as the sprinklers could continue sprinkling and the immersers could continue immersing, and everyone would be 'baptized' regardless.
Hello from Norway.
This is exellent teaching about salvation and the place of baptism, because salvation is a way not a ticket!
Exellent guys💪🏼💪🏼👏
You're so true Brother, it also happened here, like we're being mocked by the idea of baptizing people in the name of Jesus.
Hello dear brothers,
I am a missionary, working in the field, among refugees and local people.
We here baptize people right away, when they have repented. We explain what baptism is (from Rom 6, Col 2, 1 Peter 3 and of course Acts).
The way I explain it in short is that baptism DOES save a person FROM THE OLD LIFE. (The greek verb "Save" is not restricted in just "receiving forgiveness" in the Bible. It means deliver, it includes physical healing many times, etc. I am Greek so it is easy to find out).
The question in my mind is this:
We have elderly people around, (even relatives) that they can barely walk.
There is no way that I can get in the sea with them.
How do you deal with situations like this?
It just feels like placing a demand on them to "get in the water" somewhere in order for them to receive FULL SALVATION is just very difficult.
I would appreciate your thoughts.
BTW these Videos/Podcasts are really really good!
We bless you for doing them.
Grace and peace in Christ Jesus
Thanks. Maybe this can answer your question
ruclips.net/video/LxloTx3bHH0/видео.html
Keep going 🙏
This teaching is eye opening. I also love the TLR map. It connections with other Christians serving our Lord and the Kingdom.
Lovely clarity in this teaching, clearly explaining the absolute importance of baptism. Thank you.
🙏 Yes!
Why Paul said that ? 1Cor1:16And I baptized also the household of Stephanas: besides, I know not whether I baptized any other. 17For Christ sent me not to baptize, but to preach the gospel: not in wisdom of words, lest the cross of Christ should be made void.18For the word of the cross is to them that are perishing foolishness; but unto us which are being saved it is the power of God.
@@alexisdaniel3313 Paul is defending the gospel. To help understand read Jn1:25 'Why do you baptize if you are not the Christ'. Preachers were becoming famous. There was division. Men were starting to follow the preacher ' I am of Paul, etc. Paul is speaking in this way to show it is 'Christ alone', not Paul, or any other minister. But Christ! He is making this Plain, just as John the Baptist did.
@@stevedavies8703 do we need to look for the power in the baptism or in the word of the cross ?
Those who got baptized as an infant got a baptism of tradition there's no belief no repentance no salvation
Glory Hallelujah... for the truth from his saints to share more of His word and bring it too action. I stand with your belief, because I went through this same process in 2016 and now I still am walking in faith in His truth. Blessings and keep spreading the truth of his word and the good new.
This is gotta be the best one so far lots of revelation, thank You Father🦁🗡️⚔️🛡️🕊️🔥❤️💕
Thank you! Glad you are enjoying our podcast! Tune in Friday for the last one of this season.
Brother, Torben and crew, this is on point! 👊🏾
Not sure about teaching that the blood is applied during water baptism. The blood is applied by faith, as shown in Acts 10 with Cornelius and his household. The baptism in the Holy Spirit is only for the saved. When Peter saw that they had been accepted by God he then commanded that they be water baptized. I am with you on the power in water baptism. I have witnessed it and participated in it several times, and it is clearly taught in the scriptures. However, I think you are reaching beyond the clear teaching of scripture when you say that the blood is applied through the baptism. I love TLR and have been following you for years. Even attended a kickstart in Michigan with Mark and Jeremy and it was awesome. However, I am going to have to hold you to your own standard of the plain teaching of scripture on this one my brothers.
Yeah that’s a stumbling block for me as well I’m not to sure about the whole, the blood doesn’t apply until your baptized. I’m still praying on it tho especially the whole acts 2:38
Romans 3:24-25 being justified freely by His grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus, 25 whom God set forth as a propitiation by His blood, through faith, to demonstrate His righteousness, because in His forbearance God had passed over the sins that were previously committed, 26 to demonstrate at the present time His righteousness, that He might be just and the justifier of the one who has faith in Jesus.
Romans 4:23-25 Now it was not written for his sake alone that it was imputed to him, but also for us. It shall be imputed to us who believe in Him who raised up Jesus our Lord from the dead, who was delivered up because of our offenses, and was raised because of our justification.
In 1 Peter 3:21 it is the flood that symbolizes baptism - not baptism that symbolizes the flood! The flood was the metaphor in that case while baptism is the "real deal."
Exactly, Bob! I was just having a conversation with someone recently who misunderstood the verse in the same way. I understand the confusion because if you come into it believing that baptism is a symbol, when you read that verse it’s almost like there’s a “theological dyslexia” where you get it backward.
@@prayerforceone It's like they see "baptism" and "symbolizes" in the same sentence and say "SEE, Baptism is a SYMBOL". Just sloppy comprehension.
I attended a Kickstart recently and was taught there that a person can sincerely believe in Jesus Christ and repent, and even be baptized. But if they only understood that baptism to be symbolic, as an outward display of their faith, they are still on the road to hell. Since then I’ve been listening to more TLR teachings on baptism, and doing my best to set aside my religious glasses and explore the Scriptures for myself on this topic. I was hoping this video would address that specific teaching, but it stopped short. Evan in his final thoughts eluded to it, but that’s it.
I do think that we should always include “in the name of Jesus Christ” when quoting Acts 2:38. Taking out His name for the sake of time constraints? I don’t think that some intentionally do that, but we mustn’t neglect His centrality. I hope that we can all agree on this point and make this change. Especially because Acts 2:38 is so essential to this movement.
♥️♥️♥️✝️♥️♥️♥️
I love my brothers and sisters at TLR so much, and I don’t want them to be misunderstood! Thank you for all your works of agapae love, beloved TLR & disciples! I love you! I love you! I love you! 💖🛐
Hello Team.. A small request: Will it be possible to have a healing prayer in the end for say 5 - 10 mins for the viewers to be delivered from health issues (in one of the podcasts)? You are blessed with the LOrd's anointing. Thank You in advance.
I second this
This podcast is a game changer and I really like the way that you share the gospel of Christ at the end of each podcase in this one it is at 1:26:00. Continue to do God's work and spread the true message of the Gospel! #ThisIsReal
Excellent discussion, brothers! Please allow me to show there is an important Scriptural distinction between salvation of our SPIRIT and salvation of our SOUL…
Our repentance and water baptism bring salvation of our SPIRIT, which is a free gift, not by works. Jesus Himself taught that He will raise/resurrect all who believe in Him on the “last day” (John 6:39,40,44,54). They will be part of the New Jerusalem of Rev. Chs. 21 and 22. Hallelujah!
Now, all four Gospels record our Lord emphasizing that His disciples can receive salvation of our SOULS (Greek = psuche, often mistranslated life) in the next age (the Millennial Kingdom) by “losing” (denying) them now this age (study using Greek Interlinear Bibles Matt. 16:25-27; Mark 8:35-38; Luke 9:23-26; John 12:24-28). Salvation of our SOULS requires we do the Spirit-led works of the Father (emphasized by Jesus multiple times, and also in Hebrews and by James and Peter).
Salvation of our souls is the REWARD promised throughout the NT to disciples who suffer with Christ and persevere; it is the inheritance, the prized first resurrection that Paul sought so hard to attain (Phil. 3:11-14) - the race he sought to win (1Cor. 9:24 - 10:12, which Torbin even referred to).
This prize/reward of salvation of our souls is reigning with Christ during His imminent 1,000 year Kingdom on earth, which our Lord taught NOT ALL will be counted worthy to obtain (see Luke 12:34-36; Rev. 20:4-6; and Rev. Chs. 2&3 for starters).
Blessings to all who study this out!
Errata: Second to last line, Luke 20:34-36 is first Scripture listed above where Jesus teaches not all will be considered worthy to take part in the age to come [Millennial Kingdom], not Ch 12 😊
In 1 Peter 3:21 the "lifting" of the boat heavenward by the water was a prefiguring of Christ's ascension. The reason Christ was raised and ascended to heaven to God was because he was righteous just as Noah was righteous. We PARTICIPATE in Christ's resurrection (and burial) by baptism which enables us to live a new, righteous, life. It is a righteous life which leads to eternal life - Rom 6:22.
And whatsoever ye do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God and the Father by him. - Colossians 3:17
This might be the best video I have ever watched. Thank you.
Amen. Agree. Share it with others
Torben I’m down to your last two podcasts. We need to bring these podcasts back
We love you guys and are so grateful for you sharing the truth of God's word!
Hi, can you please explain why Jesus said to baptise in the father, the son and holy spirit in matthew 28?
I was baptized after I got saved years later and I was a believer. How do we discern when a person should be baptized again? I didn’t have a “crazy” experience. I did have more deliverance, ect after baptism through the years. How do I validate my baptism? Idk if the devil is trying to make me doubt here. I don’t live in continual sin either. Praise god I have been set free. But just curious
If when we cast out demons we have to say in the name of Jesus Christ I command you to "come out" to cast them out; then I would think - in reading the sciptures - that we need to say I baptise you in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of sins and you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit. Reminder we now know all about Jesus especially in the Western world - but in those days (2 thousand years ago) the gentile world never heard of him - and they worshipped many false gods - with their own names (the greeks and romans for example). So the name of Jesus would have to be used during baptism amid a very, very pagan society.
Acts 22:16 “calling on the name” you are correct
The "sanctification" in Eph 5 is about setting the bride apart (for marriage) from "the world" and not cleansing - the cleansing in that passage is in the past tense ("having washed" by water by the word) before Jesus "gives himself" in marriage - washing comes before the wedding. Jesus says he "sanctified" himself in John 17 for the same purpose - to set himself apart for his bride.
Just what I have been sharing with others in the last couple of years. Before that I could not articulate exactly what the power was in baptism to set a person free from the fleshly nature/sinful nature/dead works.
Somehow there has been a lack of clear understanding on what the necessity for baptism meant.
Thanks for this. I am goung to listen to it again later to catch anything more that Ive missed.
Baptism is part of sanctification. It is part of our ongoing walk with Christ. It is not part of justification/new birth. We are born again by believing, as Jesus said. Justified by faith in Christ alone as Paul repeatedly states. Don't mix up justification/regeneration/new birth is totally different from sanctification/being set apart/made pure. Justification is by faith in Christ alone we are legally made right with God. Sanctification we are told to fight and battle and obey and work. Our eternal inheritance is secured by Christ alone, not shared with the work of baptism. Paul is clear, if you add any work to faith in Christ for justification, you have fallen from grace. This is heresy from the pit
@@PowerintheBlood I believe that you are missing the significance and power behind baptism. Jesus said "I tell you the truth, noone can enter the kingdom of God unless he is born of water and the Spirit".
He couldnt be any clearer. Salvation is gaining entry into Christ, by whom we enter a new life, by death to self/sin/flesh, and the miracle of regeneration with a new heart and spirit, and the Spirit of God Himself entering our heart to do these things, Ezekiel 36:25-27.
Romans chapter 6 also makes it clear that baptism follows a choice to repent and die to the sinful nature, having faith the God can raise us from this death, into new life IN CHRIST, a new creature, led by the Spirit now, in righteousness.
This is the way which is eternal life IN CHRIST, redeemed, regenerate, sanctified and being sanctified; saved and being saved; righteous and being made righteous; dead and yet suddenly truly alive! A moment and a lifetime, and then the culmination when Jesus comes again. A miracle. A feat of God and not of man. Not an achievement of man, but of God. A mystery, yet made known to His own.
@@suzannegriffiths4795 yes born of the Word. Ephesians 5 clearly shows what this water is 25 Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ also loved the church and gave Himself for her, 26 that He might sanctify and cleanse her with the washing of water by the word, 27 that He might present her to Himself a glorious church, not having spot or wrinkle or any such thing, but that she should be holy and without blemish.
Jesus said that He has living water. This is the inward regeneration. Titus 3 5 not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to His mercy He saved us, through the washing of regeneration and renewing of the Holy Spirit, 6 whom He poured out on us abundantly through Jesus Christ our Savior, 7 that having been justified by His grace we should become heirs according to the hope of eternal life.
1 Peter 3 21 There is also an antitype which now saves us-baptism (*not the removal of the filth of the flesh* *not water baptism but the washing of regeneration by faith*, but the answer of a good conscience toward God), through the resurrection of Jesus Christ,
Can't be simpler than this. Don't put your faith in ritual or physical water. Put your faith in Christ and the Spirit of Life
@@suzannegriffiths4795 you are right that baptism follows the choice to follow Christ (repentance) but it is not that choice. It is a work of obedience that will follow in the life of any born again believer. Just like how Jesus says, "if you love me, keep my commandments." We don't keep His commandments in order to love Him, we keep His commandments because we love Him
@@PowerintheBlood to me that really isnt the point. I follow the commandments of God not just because I love God, but also because He changed me, enabling me to be obedient. Without His enabling, I would not be able to obey no matter how hard I tried.
Same with baptism. Without dying, I cant be born again. Believing results in faith, resulting in true righteousness because He changed my heart. otherwise I couldnt be righteous, or even know what that is. It is the inspiration, power and enabling of the Spirit within which even makes any of this salvation and sanctification possible for those who believe.
Baptism in water is absolutely important and something everyone should do. But to say that you can't enter heaven if you're not baptised in water(referring John 3:5), even though you've confessed Him as your lord and saviour - is not as clear as we might think. How can i say that and where is my evidence?
In John 3:5 Jesus says born, not baptised - however being born could have the same meaning as being baptised since the baptism is to die with chirst and to rise with christ aka being born again. Me personally think this is what it means. But there's an example of a person who got to heaven (was saved) without being baptised in water, and that is the man who hanged on the cross next to Jesus (luke 23:43). With that alone we can see that Jesus has ways we don't fully understand.
We (humans) have a tendency to over complicate things.
Here's my two cents. All who confess Jesus as their lord and saviour should also be baptised in water becasue that is what the Word says, end of story.
But to say that if you don't get baptised in water you won't be able to enter heaven is something we should be really careful of saying. Because there are situations like in luke 23:43 where people receive jesus minutes before their deaths and saying that those people wont get into heaven because they didn't get baptised in water is something i personally dont belive in.

I’ve always wondered why in Matthew 28, Jesus says, “in the Name of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.” And in Acts, Peter says to be baptized in the Name of Jesus Christ.

@@TheLastReformation thank you very much. This is confirmation for me. I’ve always questioned being baptized like how Matthew 28 says, vs what we read in Acts and the epistles. I believe that “name” in Matthew 28, in the name of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, it’s singular, not plural. He didn’t say names, but name, that’s why In Acts they baptized in the name of Jesus Christ! Hallelujah! Thank you guys, and God bless!
Matthew 3:11. What do you think about it? John makes a distinction from water and Holy Ghost. If y’all went over this verse I missed it.
Want to praise the Lord on the day of my baptism he revealed to my this, I told my children that I am now being prepared as a bride washed and cleansed for the wedding day. Then one of my born again friends through a word of wisdom confirmed this through the Word.
Why was Jesus first miracle at a wedding and why the water to 🍷 wine?
When you repent and choose to follow Jesus you now his bride to be.The water was to clean the bride for the bridegroom as was tradition in the Jewish culture. The wine is symbol of His blood cleansing us from sin. Hallelujah praise the Lord. In baptism we are now cleansed by his blood and come out clean and can now be free from the bonded to sin betrothed to Him, Jesus.
With the first miracle Jesus revealed the entire gospel. Now the bride eagerly await the returning of the Bridegroom
People that is still love sin of this world would like to use this miracle to say Jesus change the water into wine and he then I can still drink. What a ly of satan.
Be blessed to all the saints of TLR. Keep on walking in the Spirit
Want to praise the Lord. Correction on the beginning of the post. Auto correct 😄
Amen 🙏
Some time ago I read a passage in the old testament while I was looking for answers about my baptism. The text said something about some feast (passah?) or something with some people not being cleansed properly. And there were other clean ones who prayed for the unclean ones that God will see them as clean and God had mercy on them because their hearts were pure... something like that. Is there maybe someone who knows the bible better than I do and can tell where that text can be found? 😅
I believe it would have helped the listeners about Matthew 28. Also explain what is oneness. Thank you brothers

i think the problem is people are not reading the bible fully becasue when i met jesus , i read the bible and read people got baptised and simply concluded that i also need to be baptised...its so simple when you just read the bible...but if you dont read it and just read odd scriptures and listen more to traditions of the church at the same time..you will follow the traditions of man.....also why wouldnt you want to be baptised....if you want jesus you will do it...to please Him
The Apostolic movement Acts 2 38 started in USA in 1914 in Los angeles.many trinitarian minister rebaptized themselves in the. Name of Jesus Christ at Arroyo seco camp meeting then the new issue began hit protestant Christianity real hard to be truely baptized right and preaching the true Gospel of Salvation
Amen 🙏... the precious blood of Jesus.
Thank you brothers in Christ!!
I've never heard such a clear teaching about baptism! Now everythig everything falls into place and IT MAKES SO MUCH SENSE!!! Hallelujah! Though also scary to realise the consequences of bad teaching/-ers :o
Amen. Yes. This teaching is important 🙏
I've heard stories about death bed repentance they believe the idea of the thief on the cross he repented at the cross so a man dying from cancer or aids or whatever these people were to busy with material and Mamon or work alcoholic they decided to call on the lord
I was baptized as an infant and became protestant. I decided to keep my first baptism and accept salvation and my freedom from sin...I accept it like the Jews accepted circumcision. I learn to identify with my creator as I grow.
So far your the only one I hear teaching this. Deep.
Here's something I saw recently, the difference between John's baptism and being baptised into Jesus.
Jews came to John, confessed their sins and were baptised. They were then told to follow Jesus, because He is Salvation. Were those who were baptised forgiven their sins? Yes. Just like David and the people of Nineveh and anyone else who repented were forgiven in the OT. But were the saved? No. They still had a sinful nature, which is why Nineveh was eventually destroyed, despite being forgiven after Jonah's visit.
The baptism into Jesus is different. Scripture tells us that we are forgiven AND delivered or set free, that is, SAVED from sin and death. We are stripped of our sinful nature, which is our propensity to sin whether we want to or not, as we are united in Jesus's death, which is the death we should die, but don't because He died instead of us - - - and this is the 'washing away of sin' that saves us from our broken sinful nature.
One big problem is that many Christians never say what we are saved FROM. They say we are saved, the assumption being we are going to Heaven. But being saved only means something when you state what you are saved FROM. A person sinking in a river can be saved FROM drowning. A person in a burning house can be saved FROM fire. A person held hostage can be saved FROM death. Etc. We are saved FROM sin and death, because Jesus served the death sentence for sin on our behalf.
Good 👍
Thanks for the podcast guys!
Question?
If I knew someone that after I shared the gospel with them they responded by crying out to the Lord
"Have mercy on me Jesus! I am a sinner! I repent of my sins and ask you to come and wash me clean, save me make me your home!"
Was he at that point cleansed of his sins , "born again", and considered a son of God. Or did this only happen 2 days later when we baptized him?
Thanks for your response 👍

You as the wrong question because you don’t see that salvation is more that going to heaven.
I myself are not fully saved yet. But one day 🙏
@@TheLastReformation So you are not presently saved ok.
Can I ask you a question then are you presently a son of God?
Thanks for your response.
@@hammerandfire We aren't saved until we are saved. We are walking out our own salvation with fear and trembling.
@@angelagrant2943 I'm not sure the people in this "movement" understand the difference between
PAST SALVATION=Justification
Romans 8:24
New King James Version
For we WERE SAVED in this hope, but hope that is seen is not hope; for why does one still hope for what he sees?
2 Timothy 1:9
[9]Who HATH SAVED US, and called us with an holy calling, not according to our works, but according to his own purpose and grace, which was given us in Christ Jesus before the world began,
PRESENT SALVATION = Sanctification
2 Corinthians 2:15
New King James Version
For we are to God the fragrance of Christ among those who are BEING SAVED and among those who are perishing.
FUTURE SALVATION = Glorification
Romans 13:11
[11]And that, knowing the time, that now it is high time to awake out of sleep: for now is our salvation nearer than when we believed.
Hebrews 1:14
[14]Are they not all ministering spirits, sent forth to minister for them who SHALL BE heirs of salvation?
1 Peter 1:5
[5]Who are kept by the power of God through faith unto salvation ready to be revealed in the last time.
So we see a present salvation I am saved! But also a saving process called sanctification where God is purifying our souls(mind will emotions)
And also a future salvation which we are kept for by us remaining in faith in Christ crucified.
This is a great study I suggest we all look into. 😊
What a depressing though for me for any "Christian" including the leader of TLR to not have present assurance of salvation and be teaching others they cannot either 😥
Be blessed my sister in Christ 🤗
@@angelagrant2943 Let me ask you the same question I asked TLR are you presently a "Daughter of God"?

Thanks for your podcast, buth wat are there no woman at the table .?
They’ve had a woman on the podcast before
Because when you teach doctrines like here it should be men teaching like the Bible say. But we have woman with us other times.
@@TheLastReformation oké buth what the bible in galatians sad 3:25-29. I belive.
Paul said that we would be judged by the gospel he preached. We are are baptized into the body by the Holy Spirit. If water baptism is a requirement for salvation then no death bed conversions ever happened. No letter of Paul's indicate the requirement of water baptism.
When a believer, according to Acts 2 :38, repents and is water baptized in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, the Holy Spirit, because of the shed blood of Christ, remits our sins by circumcizing our conscience, removing thr guilt from past sins, and restoring its original childlike sensitivity to sin.
This is the " washing of regeneration"(Titus 3:5).
The Word " regeneration defined means to," return something to its original state". The remission of sins, or removal of guilt, is what the Lord meant when He told the people that, " Unless you become as little children and be converted you will in no wise enter the kingdom of heaven" ( Matt.18:13)
We can't become as little children again, of course, as far as size ,but we can as far as innocence of conscience.
But if you love God then why not get baptised though?
A clean conscience comes from living a righteous life - baptism is a necessary "tool" to help us live that life. We are going to be judged, in part, from our conscience's testimony - see Romans 2.
where have the podcasts gone?
Torben is in prison.
Please! Zoom in on the photos you include with this podcast. We can barely see the picture of the baby resisting indoctrination.
Here is one example to be careful which Bible we read. This is from King James, which again is from received texts. You can make up your own mind as to why all catholic approved Bibles have this edited out and watered down:
1. John 5:5-8
(5)Who is he that overcometh the world, but he that believeth that Jesus is the Son of God? (6)This is he that came by water and blood, even Jesus Christ; not by water only, but by water and blood. And it is the Spirit that beareth witness, because the Spirit is truth. (7)For there are three that bear record in heaven, the Father, the Word, and the Holy Ghost: and these three are one. (8)And there are three that bear witness in earth, the Spirit, and the Water, and the blood: and these three agree in one.
In Matthew 24:28 Jesus mentions "For wheresoever the carcase is, there will the eagles be gathered together"
I have not found direct connection between baptism and this verse, but the thaught I got from this, is the fact Jesus described there, and that the eagle is a scavenger. Also Jesus paralells birds eating the seed by the road. Since it is universal truth, that where the carcases are, the scavengers show up, there may be some link to the unburried dead body, and the birds (thaughts) eating it up, so there may not be any body left to bury later. Just speculation, but read 1. John 5:8 and check the received text and compare it to the Bible you read. This was important enough for the Vatican ministry of disinformation to change
Most churches and protestantism our loophole religion people looking for discount it's like shopping instead of going to Macy's go to Walmart or target they don't want to give up worldly things of life they want to be social drinkers, go dancing , gamble, no repentance , no works no prayer it's to old fashion they don't want to give up the old ways their party crowd or the Hollywood crowd
According to Christ (Matt.12: 43) unclean spirits do seek out people in dry, waterless places to rest in (to possess). If we ruled out a literal significance of water in relation to unclean spirits then we're left with water baptism as a mere symbolic ritual, which I seriously doubt was Jesus' intention. Worse still, many evangelicals mistakenly pit the act of water baptism as works against faith.
But there is power in water baptism because it is a providence of God for salvation. Humans without God are in bondage of sin and we shouldn't be surprised if it's a bondage under unclean spirits.
Surely water baptism in the name of Jesus is God's wonderful providence to facilitate the driving out of unclean spirits so that the Holy Spirit may now indwell a believer and sin can go into remission. To obey in water baptism is to submit in faith to the providence of God for salvation.
The passage in Acts 2: 38 resonates the same meaning.
“...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."
God is good!
GOD bless you more and more❤️💪🏼🔥
Amazing teaching guys. Love it. ❤
So I am very simple. If you were to come up to me and give me the gospel and I would repent and pray right there with you and then the next step would be what would your next step be how would you explain to me baptism this is a good teaching but when I’m trying to explain it to my son who has given his heart to the Lord but is struggling so much with anxiety and fear and I believe in from what I’ve seen of your videos that there is deliverance needed and we have prayed many times. And I’ve seen this and I wonder if this is what is the problem. How would you explain to me why the next step would be baptism and that amount of time not an hour or two hour teaching because we wouldn’t do that how would you explain it to a person that has just received Christ and repented of their sins?
Question to Torben:
I want to ask something about this word "regeneration". What do you mean with this? Actually a while ago we had a guy that came into our fellowship that stood very firmly on "that The last reformation do not believe in baptism regeneration" so this means that TLR do not believe that baptism is part of being born again. It was actually the first time we were confronted with this word "regeneration". We looked it up in the strongs and saw that it meant "new birth". We showed him that Jesus said that a man can not enter into the kingdom of God if he is not BORN out of WATER and spirit.. This man got really upset with us and said that we are misinterpreting you because according to him you guys are not saying that baptism is part of being born again but we understand this as a crucial part of being born again/as the new birth. So technically Torben, I want to ask you, is it not so that baptism actually is part of regeneration? Or do you mean something different with the word "regeneration" ?
Baptism is part of being born again. But Baptism alone without faith, repentance and receiving the Holy Spirit can not do it. It all need to be there.
Hi, this is Ever from the podcast, there is a regeneration happening in water baptism. Think of it this way, we lost something from a previous generation and Jesus came to bring it back. In order to come into it, we need to be regenerated which is through a new birth. That which was lost was access to the throne of God because of the body of sin and the blood of Jesus was the answer to this problem. We receive the blood in baptism thus receiving freedom from the body of sin. However, none of this is possible without believing that Jesus is the answer to our problem. Once we believe and turn to God, then we have access to the blood and the grace His gives by removing the body of sin. So baptism does bring regeneration but not alone, it happens with faith and belief. Amen
That is damnable heresy 👆 it is saying that faith plus works equals justification. They pull this garbage off by denying that baptism is a work, which it clearly is... Duh. These guys have one of the most cunning doctrines of demons I've ever seen. Behind a nice smiling face
It's pity some people in comments haven't got it :(
Brother Piotr Podobiński words....
Perversion of Water Baptism and the Gospel in TLR
We all know that Torben often butchers the Bible without understanding of the deeper dynamics of the text, he regularly rips passages out of their context. One of the best examples of this is his usage of:
Acts 2:38 (NET)
"Peter said to them, “Repent, and each one of you be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins, and you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit."
There is nothing wrong with this wonderful passage, all orthodox evangelicals agree that we should baptize "in the name of Father Son and Holy Spirit", water baptism is an external token of something that happens on the inside in your heart. Your spirit is born again trough faith in the Gospel (as in story of Cornelius where he is SAVED and Spirit filled in one instant after hearing words of the Gospel, before being water baptized!) In water baptism you get to experience profoundly in your soul and your body what has already happened in your heart, baptism is also a beautiful act of confession, every Christian should be baptized, there is zero disagreement about it in faithful Christian churches.
What is wrong with Torben's teaching then?
Firstly he changes definition of the Gospel, he often says "Gospel is repentance + water baptism + Spirit baptism"
Amen! Gread podcast. Thank you
Baptism has always been a. Big. Issue in religion or Christianity the mode , the age, the formula , traditional , I'm a Oneness believer most Oneness people believe that the book of Acts saints were. Oneness up into the council of nicea 325 Ad when Trinity developed people began to compromise
Will disagree. I really don’t see the oneness in the Bible.
Jesus is the name of the Father, Son, and Holy Ghost. Those are titles not names. There’s only one name that saves acts 4:12.
Sooooooooo gooood! Best podcast
Do you believe that someone can repent on their death bed and be saved?
Of course they can. Repentance and faith save not baptism. What a bunch of Christ plus works Judaizing heresy that is. Read Romans and Galatians. It is faith alone in Christ alone apart from works any work any work
@@PowerintheBlood thank you, yes I read Galatians today and it clarified that Abraham's faith was accredited to him by faith and that it's the same for us, thank you, I knew this just wanted to to clarify that if someone truly repented on their death bed and didn't get the chance to get immersed in water that of course, the Lord would have mercy on them
@@jennabates4973 I am glad you received clarity from the Word
@@AlaskaSkiMo thank you, do you have the scriptures for this? Xxx
Is prayer a symbol? Of course not… then why do we assume that baptism is a symbol.
The name of the Lord is Jesus. It’s clear they baptized in the Name of Jesus when the Apostles baptized.
Another observation. Those who think baptism is 'works to dalvation' do not see the supernatural in baptism. They see it only as a purely physical event. But the circumcision if the heart that occurs in baptism must be supernatural. It cannot be anything else. God is supernatural. He does supernatural things. Namaan was supernaturally healed from leprosy when he baptised himself seven times. So what is the problem with a supernatural God performing a supernatural heart operation in the water of a supernatural 'operating theatre' of His choosing? He is God after all. I cannot understand Christians who do not see the supernatural in God.
The only way the Apostles baptized was using the Name of Jesus. The only saving name is Jesus (Acts 4:12). James 2:7 AMP Is it not they who slander and blaspheme that precious name by which you are distinguished and called (the name of Christ invoked in baptism)?Col 3:17 And whatsoever ye do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God and the Father by him.
I love this verses I think it makes things so simple:
11It is just as the Scripture says: “Anyone who believes in Him will never be put to shame.”e 12For there is no difference between Jew and Greek: The same Lord is Lord of all, and gives richly to all who call on Him, 13for, “Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.”f
Romans 10:11-13
The first time I was baptized at age 12 i was not saved...... only accepting Christ as your savior saves you! Baptism is your acknowledgement of salvation when you understand what it means. We are being saved as we work out or salvation with fear and trembling throughout our life! You sound legalistic!
Try read your Bible….. you are following traditions and not the Bible.
You are right Liz. Read Romans and Galatians where Paul clearly states that salvation/justification/new birth comes by faith in Christ alone apart from works. He also states that if you try to add any work to faith in Christ, you are fallen from grace. These guys are stubbornly teaching damnable heresy after many repeated warnings
Love it💕
Love this, thanks for this!
Another observation. The spirit of Cain did not want to obey God. He reconed that his rules and works were good enough.
Offcourse any commandment of Jesus Christ, as in this discussion, will be attacked by the spirit of Cain, which was from the serpent and putting doubt in Eve about if God realy said they would die, and he added a falce promise temptation. Surely he is doing the same still. The rebellion the Bible has so many demonstrations of being active among humans.
Amen!
@30:20 Egypt- The blood of the Lamb saved them, but they had to go through the water to get their enemies off of their backs! They were not free from their bondage to Egypt until they passed through the water. The Blood and the water! Woo hoo!
We, as followers of the Messiah can be mikvahed as we are led by the RYH HAQDSH ( Spirit, the Righteous). // Anyone reading this who is not saved, ask the Messiah to be your Savior. All have sinned and fallen short of the glory of Hayah (Romans 3:23). The wages for sin is death but the gift of ALaHYM is Everlasting Life through Messiah Yahushgh our Master (Romans 6:23). That if we confess with our mouth the Master Yahushgh and believe in our heart that ALaHYM raised Him from the dead, we shall be saved (Romans 10:9). And He Himself is an Atoning Offering for our sins, and not for ours only but also for all the world (1John 2:2).

Apparently, y'all have not heard of the dispensation of grace. We are not under the law and there are several scriptures that support that. Therefore, we have a different gospel than what noted in the four gospel and before the crucifixion. There is no conditions/works for our dispensation of grace. Our gospel is 1Cor. 15:1-4 and Eph 2:8-9. When Jesus said it was finish we can't add to that and say it's what we do, do, do. Salvation is what he done, done, done. You simply have to have faith and accept what He done.
Keep reading. Start with Eph 2.10…. Always read it all.
@@TheLastReformation Christians do good works after and because they believe the gospel and still believe. Work such as sharing this gospel, helping the sick, feeding the poor..others. But, it is an insult to add or take away from the great crosswork wherein He shed His blood for our sins and gave it to us as a gift. In fact, Gal 1:8 gives a warning about use of a different gospel. (8) but though we, or an angel from heaven preach any other gospel than that which we have preached unto you, let him be accused.
Not even baptize got tradition but school is also a tradition design buy the rich.
Why Paul said that ? 1Cor1:16And I baptized also the household of Stephanas: besides, I know not whether I baptized any other. 17For Christ sent me not to baptize, but to preach the gospel: not in wisdom of words, lest the cross of Christ should be made void.18For the word of the cross is to them that are perishing foolishness; but unto us which are being saved it is the power of God.

baptism is the washing away of original sin.
Baptism in Jesus name is your wedding garment if you don't have a wedding garment you will be thrown out of the wedding reception in the book of Matthew there was an individual who hadn't a garment
INFANT BAPTISM IS JUSTIFIED according to the Scriptures. 1 Cor7:14; Children are holy under believeing parents. Mat19:14; The Kingdom of God belong to such as these Children says the Lord. The way I understand is every child is holy and righteous because they were created in the image of God. For that reason under believing parents their souls are safe. If they die they will go to heaven as Jesus said. Nevertheless as they grow up under the rule of the devil in this world, they sin. So they need to repent and be baptized in water and in the Holy Spirit.
No. 1 cor 7.14 and Matt 19 don’t talk about baptism. You put the word in. If you understood baptism in water you will see that infant can not get baptized
