water baptism-why do people do it?in what name should you be baptised in?thats a very good question...and also a very immportant question.this was the last message preached by the lord jesus christ(matt 28;19)-this was also the first message preached by the apostales-"then peter replied,repent and be BAPTIZED 'EVERYONE' of you in the name of JESUS CHRIST for the remmision of your sins,and ye shall receive the gift of the holy ghost"-acts 2;38.but how?immersion or sprinkling?"they both went down into the water"acts 8;38-"they came up out of the water"-acts 8;39-"we are buried with him in baptism"-"we have been planted together"-romans 6;4-5...all this verses prove that we have to be IMMERSED!-the word baptism come from the greek word 'baptizo'which means to immerse.now the question is-is baptism immportant to salvation-YES IT IS!!!!it was an immportant command from jesus christ himself!!!!!!!!!"HE THAT BELIEVETH AND IS'BAPTISED' SHALL BE SAVED:BUT HE THAT BELIVETH NOT SHLL BE DAMNED."-MARK 16;16.some of my freinds say that its not immportant-well according to the bible it is!the next question is-in what name should you be baptised in??in the name of the father,son & holy ghost or in the name of jesus christ??ACTS 2;38, 8;16, 10;48, 4;12, AND COL 3;17 all prove that you should be baptised in JESUS NAME-why not in the name of the father,son,and holy ghost...did the apostales disobey jesus-no,jesus is the father,son,and holy ghost!jesus himself said that he was the father-JOHN 10;30 AND ALSO IN JOHN 10;38!IF JESUS IS THE FATHER HIMSELF THEN THE SPIRIT IS IN HIM-ALL TOGETHER YOU GET ONE GOD!god himself in the old testoment said that there is no other god beffore him!the apostals understood that jesus is the father,son,& holy spirit so they didn't disobey
p.s-grace be with you all,gods mercy endurith forever.
