Grrr, can't find this verse

[Sword-In-Hand]

Ok, I'm looking for the verse where it speaks of our first fruits being burned up. I've scanned over where I thought it was, but I can't find it. Can anyone help me out?

This is probably what you are referring to:

(1 Cor 3:10-15 KJV) According to the grace of God which is given unto me, as a wise masterbuilder, I have laid the foundation, and another buildeth thereon. But let every man take heed how he buildeth thereupon. {11} For other foundation can no man lay than that is laid, which is Jesus Christ. {12} Now if any man build upon this foundation gold, silver, precious stones, wood, hay, stubble; {13} Every man's work shall be made manifest: for the day shall declare it, because it shall be revealed by fire; and the fire shall try every man's work of what sort it is. {14} If any man's work abide which he hath built thereupon, he shall receive a reward. {15} If any man's work shall be burned, he shall suffer loss: but he himself shall be saved; yet so as by fire.


In otherwords, if you are an evangelist and your bring people to Christ, some of them will be gold, some stubble, etc. but if they fall away, that doesn't affect your salvation, if indeed you are saved, which you aren't if you were never baptized for the remission of sins, that is believing that you had not yet recieved it but would receive it while in the the waters of baptism, wherein the Holy Ghost would regenerate you if you believed that he would.
