Mark 16:15-17
15And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature.
16He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned.
17And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues; Yes, faith is FOUNDATIONAL. Faith brings a repentant heart. A repentant heart full of faith brings obedience. I believe any able bodied person is expected to respond to the Gospel in it's fullness. The sick and dying cannot. |
I was responding to the claim that every conversion recorded in the Bible included repentance and baptism. Also the claim that there was a singular message preached (inferring that A2:38 was that message) isn't reflected in the book of Acts. I do believe there is one Gospel, and that Gospel is Christ and Him crucified. That's the consistent message throughout Acts, in fact that's what Peter preached in
Acts 2. A238 comes only after the heaters of his Gospel message were convicted and asked what to do.
