Re: Water baptism is not vital for salvation?

That, too. I knew I was missing something. Kinda rusty. I was PCI for a few years.. then went Reformed Baptist, and made full circle. Quite the experience.

Re: Water baptism is not vital for salvation?

I don't have an exact belief concerning baptism along apostolic lines neither is the following an exact of what I believe but:

Without knowing the jailers knowledge of salvation, in his mind in order to obtain the same he might have been fully persuaded to be baptized. How many converts do the same today because their heart has been made right with God that they are too persuaded to be baptized with little or no knowledge of the scripture.

And before everyone jumps on what Paul and Silas told him to do unless my memory is blurred, there was no HG tongues required to be saved. Correction, it is recorded.....believe on the Lord.

Not altogether correct.

Act 16:31-33 KJV....And they said, Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved, and thy house. ..(32)....And they spake unto him the word of the Lord, and to all that were in his house. ..(33)....And he took them the same hour of the night, and washed their stripes; and was baptized, he and all his, straightway.

After we read of them speaking of his need to be saved by faith, we then read these vita words: "And they spake unto him the word of the Lord."

It was after this we read they baptized him the same hour of the night after he washed their stripes. Obviously the baptism was all about what they spoke to him in that session. It was then that they fully informed him of the knowledge he required for salvation.

Amen, exactly. They preached, they taught, they explained.
