I'm sorry I'm writing sooner than said, I had to come to the library as I don't have access at home so I may not be on here as much. This morning I told you that all of the conversions in Acts required baptism. Here are some of the scriptures you can use to verify this truth:
Acts 2, Acts 8:26-40 Philip and the eunuch; Acts 9:1-19 Saul's conversion who became (Paul); Acts 16:11-15 Lydia's conversion; Acts 16:25-34 Jailor's conversion; Acts 17:22-34 Paul's preaching in the synagogue proclaiming salvation; Acts 18:7,8 Titus and Justus converted; Acts 19:1-7 baptism essential
You still have the right to your own opinions about salvation, but my conscious says to make you aware of these scriptures, and I am sure after you check it out for yourself, you will no doubtedly have any doubts. I hope this is helpful to you in your studies.
I want to share a very cool scripture with you as I was reading it today: Hebrews 13:1,2. . .Let brotherly love continue. Do not forget to entertain strangers, for by so doing some have unwittingly entertained angels.
How cool is that! Don't prejudge people standing by the road, just go ahead and assume they are angels! If they are not, you will be rewarded for showing love!
