Bible records:
...( Israel's various washings! Greek:
baptismos = Hebrews_9:10 ):
4. Levitical
priesthood baptism (Exodus_29:4;
Leviticus_8:6; Numbers_8:7). This washing was The Second
Requirement {The First being: "
No blemish!" (Leviticus_21:21)},
in order
to become a priest under the Law of Moses!
God's One Baptism of Ephesians 4:5 is
Unknown of "at this time" -
Where is the 'marriage'?
Is 4 above
not connected (married) to?:
9. "water baptism of repentance For remission of sin," that John
preached (Before
The Cross), And Peter
continued (After
The Cross!),
to preach! (Matthew_3:5-6; Mark_1:4; Luke_3:3; John_1:31;
Luke_7:29-30; Acts_10:37; Matthew_28:19; Mark_16:16;
Acts_2:38; Acts_22:16; Ezekiel_36:25 KJB).
a) Does this baptism “save” anyone (
Luke_7:29-30 KJB)?
If it doesn't, then
how does on
negate God's Clear Words?:
"And all the people that heard him, and the publicans, justified
God, being baptized with the baptism of John. But the Pharisees
and lawyers rejected the counsel of God against themselves, being
not baptized of him."
-------------------------------------------------
b1) Is this baptism in any way "connected" to
baptism # 4?
b2) Wasn't John
preparing National Israel for
God's Promise For
them “to be a
nation of priests unto God" (Exodus_19:6)?
b3) Was not The Second Requirement for
priesthood induction,
Washing? {
may require re-review of
baptism #4 }.
b4) Did not Christ And The Twelve
heal everyone in Israel who came to
them, in order to meet “The
First Requirement” For the priesthood, that
Of
No blemish!? (Matthew_4:24; Acts_5:16 cp Leviticus_21:21).
-------------------------------
c) Is this baptism
for today? If "you believe this baptism is
for us"
Today, then, we have
Several More Questions:
c1) Why does
no one Today,
teach, as John ( Under The Law! ),
Claimed: it is
For “
making Christ Manifest To Israel” (John_1:31)?
c2) Why does {Almost}
no one Today, “Confess their sins,”
when they come to This baptism (Matthew_3:6; Mark_1:5)?
[ we won't
mention 'baby' baptism
traditions ]
c3) Why do not
All Divided “denominations who
water baptize”
today, agree
As One, And
teach water as
John, Christ, And The
Twelve ( Under The Law! ), “taught That water baptism Is
For
The Remission Of sins!” (Mark_1:4; Luke_3:3; Acts_2:38).
{ instead of each one’s own “
symbolic Re-Interpreted Traditions!” -
we amazingly wonder
How "Pleasing is all this to God" }?
----------------------------------------------------------------
Baptism Of
Anointing?:
10. Pentecostal Spirit baptism
This is the baptism
"With" The Holy Spirit, By Jesus Christ,
From Heaven, Poured Out Upon the believing remnant of Israel,
with signs and powers following!
(Isaiah_44:3; Matthew_3:11; Mark_1:8, 16:17-18;
Luke_24:49; Acts_2:17-18, 38; Acts_8:15-17; Acts_11:16).
And, is not
This The
Third Requirement For "priesthood induction" =
Anointing? (compare Exodus_29:7; Leviticus_8:10-12).
a) Is God
Performing "This" Baptism On us
Today?
b) IF
you believe you "are in the priesthood," are you
Absolutely
Sure that
you have met All Three of God's Requirements?...
------------------------------------------
Now, about this "marriage" - is this it? water + Baptism By Christ "With" The
Holy Spirit. If so, one
may have a
valid 'marriage', But, where are "the fruits"
of
All the
associated "signs and wonders following"? Pentecostals/Charismatics?
You do
realize, of course, at this juncture, God's One Baptism Into the Body
Of Christ, "By" The Holy Spirit, are still yet
Unknown?
Does God not
divorce law from Grace in the Bible Record, or is it the
homogenization ( marriage ) of them that is
Causing Massive
Confusion?
