iv asked and theres no churches that will help me and i know zero christians in real life iv been told im doomed
How did you become a Christian, if you don't know any Christians?...and i know zero christians in real life...
You can be born again and not baptised. However, you should get baptised as soon as you can. God's word tells us that we die with Christ when we accept Him as Saviour and Lord. What do you do with a dead person? You bury them! That's what baptism is all about. Baptism is an outward and public confirmation of what God has done inside you.iv asked and theres no churches that will help me and i know zero christians in real life iv been told im doomed
Can you quote this God's word saying that? That we die with Christ in the moment of accepting Him as Savior?God's word tells us that we die with Christ when we accept Him as Saviour and Lord.
The man on the cross next to Christ was saved without baptism. So its possible.iv asked and theres no churches that will help me and i know zero christians in real life iv been told im doomed
Check out these UK churches,iv asked and theres no churches that will help me...
Sure.Can you quote this God's word saying that? That we die with Christ in the moment of accepting Him as Savior?
I mean a quotation about what you said there: "God's word tells us that we die with Christ when we accept Him as Saviour and Lord."Sure.
Colossians 3:3
For you died, and your life is now hidden with Christ in God.
Ephesians 1:13
"And you also were included in Christ when you heard the message of truth, the gospel of your salvation. When you believed, you were marked in him with a seal, the promised Holy Spirit........
Galatians 2:20
I have been crucified with Christ; and it is no longer I that live, but Christ living in me: and that life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself up for me.
Romans 6:6
"We know that our old self was crucified with Him so that the body of sin might be rendered powerless, that we should no longer be slaves to sin."
Galatians 6:14
"But as for me, may I never boast, except in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, through which the world has been crucified to me, and I to the world."
God includes us in Christ when we accept Him. We see in Galatians 2:20 that we have been crucified with Christ. We are also raised with Him to new life.
You do not need to find a church, technically anyone can baptize you, they (believe it or not) dont even have to be a Christian. The significant points are that you need to have water at least run across your forehead and the recitation of " I baptize you in the name of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit." It is a historical fact that unbaptized believers on their way to be martyred were baptized by pegans and it was accepted by the church as being valid.iv asked and theres no churches that will help me and i know zero christians in real life iv been told im doomed
We are buried with Christ in baptism. That's what you do with dead people.I mean a quotation about what you said there: "God's word tells us that we die with Christ when we accept Him as Saviour and Lord."
I.e. a quotation that we die with Christ in the moment we accept Him as Savior. Because Paul said its happening during baptism, therefore I would like to see verses supporting your position.
Do you mean this question...?Sabretooth, the composite of what several posters said earlier answers your question.
...and i know zero christians in real life...
How did you become a Christian, if you don't know any Christians?
You are not doomed if you sincerely turn to Christ but without Baptism. But that's something that happens in very unusual circumstances. It is hard to believe that there is no one who will baptize you.iv asked and theres no churches that will help me and i know zero christians in real life iv been told im doomed
