Am I Your Brother?

I believe Acts 2:38 is the only proper response to the Gospel.

Am I your brother?

Re: Am I Your Brother?

Isn't that what everyone on this site believes?

yes,

and so is a man I know (he belongs to a Missouri Synod Lutheran church) who believes aborted babies cannot go to heaven because they have not been baptized.

In my opinion, if a person has a personal relationship with Jesus, that person is my brother or sister whether we agree doctrinally on everything or not.

Again, to quote the Scriptures:

"If you believe that Jesus is the Christ --that he is God's Son and your Savior --then you are a child of God. And all who love the Father love his children too." (TLB)

"Every person who believes that Jesus is, in fact, the Messiah, is God-begotten. If we love the One who conceives the child, we'll surely love the child who was conceived." (The Message)

"Whosoever believeth that Jesus is the Christ is born of God: and every one that loveth him that begat loveth him also that is begotten of him." (KJV)

Certainly you're my brother! Was there ever any doubt? I consider you my brother but it doesn't have to be reciprocal. :) One of these days our mutual Heavenly Father is going to show me what that pain is you are experiencing. When He does you are going to be a different man.

Well, it is, isn't it?

We just don't agree on when we are saved or when we are filled with the Spirit, or what the purpose of baptism is. But we all agree that Acts 2:38 is the only proper response to the gospel. Ask Dan. He will agree with you! :)

Re: Am I Your Brother?

How many of us have been in the same situation Joseph was in?
In Genesis it says that he recognized his brothers but they didn't recognize him.
