Obviously you have never read that verse you have misquoted so I will post in in it's entirety for you and everybody else who believes in one step salvation.
(
Acts 16: 27-34) 27And the keeper of the prison awaking out of his sleep, and seeing the prison doors open, he drew out his sword, and would have killed himself, supposing that the prisoners had been fled.
28But Paul cried with a loud voice, saying, Do thyself no harm: for we are all here.
29Then he called for a light, and sprang in, and came trembling, and fell down before Paul and Silas,
30And brought them out, and said, Sirs, what must I do to be saved?
31And they said, Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved, and thy house.
32And they spake unto him the word of the Lord, and to all that were in his house.
33And he took them the same hour of the night, and washed their stripes; and was baptized, he and all his, straightway.
34And when he had brought them into his house, he set meat before them, and rejoiced, believing in God with all his house.
Verse 31 says Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ and thou shalt be saved, and thy house. Are you saying you believe his house(family) saved to when he believed on the Lord Jesus Christ?
Verse 32- And they spake unto HIM the word of the Lord, and to all his house. Why is it so hard to understand that this guy didnt hear the preached word that bring faith to believe in Jesus (
Romans 10:17) after Paul and Silas had went to his house. The bible is plain in verse 32.
Verse 33- Not only did the guy take them the same hour of the night and wash their stripes but he and his whole house was baptized straightway or immediately.
So what about the Phillipian Jailer poster? Why is it so hard to believe that Paul preached to them what peter preached on the day of Pentecost?
I see where this discussion is going and I will not have a debate from post to post with anybody whose desire to is to promote an Apostolic heritage that isnt Apostolic in Doctrine.
Whe will draw the line and ultimately will disagree with anyone who denies Jesus Name Baptism and being filled with the Holy Ghost as non essentials in the plan of Salvation.
Thanks for the comments about no more walls. My co host J.T Wheeler feels the same way as I do about this as well. We will not post here any more nor will we be drawn into a debate with anyone who has it in their heart to tear down the doctrine not only Jesus gave his life for but what the Apostles blead and died for as wel.
In Jesus Name,
