These are mysteries I don't clearly understand in all my years of Bible School.

This question is the EXACT reason why I may attend an Apostolic church, but not agree hook line and sinker with it doctrinally.
Repentance is a command.
Baptism is a command.
Both play a role in salvation-- typing it made me pause, but I don't know how else to interpret the clear teaching of the scriptures when it comes to water baptism.
But the baptism in the Holy Ghost is not a command, it is a Promise.
A Divine Promise, an awesome privilege for all Blood-Bought Believers that should be sought and coveted if for no other reason than God has made it available, this precious Gift of the Holy Ghost.
