  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

And brother LAMD and this verse is just one that shows that the. word. BAPTISM does NOT ALWAYS mean

WATER !!

AND how were they BAPTIZED into the CLOUD and BAPTIZED into the SEA ??

And THEY WERE PLACED or IDENIFIED with MOSES

Baptized INTO. THE CLOUD. is Christ

And I ACTS 18:8. it. is the same , that. the Greek. word WORD for WATER is HYDOR

Read ACTS 1:5 where water is. GONE and the only BAPTISM is by HOLY SPRIT !!

Sorry, I don't understand what your point is. (Probably my fault!) I had quoted a verse where baptism is mentioned but water isn't, that is clearly referring to baptism in water, and you have replied with some verses about other baptisms. I didn't claim that every time baptism is mentioned in Scripture, it must be water baptism. I only claimed that the word "water" (or the Greek equivalent) is not always present when water baptism is meant.

Bro.Lamb in Matt 28:19. says :

# 1 Go therefore and make disciples

# 2 OF ALL. NATIONS and do you see so-called believers going to all NATIONS. ?/

# 3. BAPTIZING. and. where. is. the Greek word for WATER //. HYDOR in that verse ??

# 4. BAPTIZING IN. THE name of the FAHER. and. of. the Son and the HOLY SPIRIT

And in. Mak 16:He who believes and. is BAPTIZED. will. be saved BUT he who does NOT BELIEVE will be CONDEMNED

and. notice , where is the Greek word for WATER // HYDOR. ??

You are still asking the same question. I have already quoted one verse where baptism is mentioned, but water is not, which does refer to water baptism. Then think of all the times John the Baptist is mentioned. By no means was water always mentioned in association with his name. For instance:

Mrk_6:25 Immediately she came in with haste to the king and asked, saying, "I want you to give me at once the head of John the Baptist on a platter."
Mrk_8:28 So they answered, "John the Baptist; but some say, Elijah; and others, one of the prophets."

He is not called, "John the Water-Baptist."

A verse where baptism is mentioned without the word "water"? If that is what you meant, there are probably several, but the one that came to my mind was:

(1Co 1:14) I thank God that I baptized none of you except Crispus and Gaius,

Paul cannot have meant baptism in the Spirit, for we never read of one Christian baptising another in the Spirit; that is God's work entirely.
And in 1. cOR 12:13. FOR even by one SPIRIT WE were. all BAPTIZED INTO ONE. BODY whether JEWS. or GENTILES

And about CRISPUS in. Acts 18:8 WERE and were being BAPTIZED. , still no WATER //HYDOR and sorry that I doubled

doubled down as I had tp prepare for this SUNDAY. and had a hectic day. !!
