(Lesson 4195)(07-17-23) Mark 1:5
“And there went out unto him all the land of Judaea, and they of Jerusalem, and were all baptized of him in the river of Jordan, confessing their sins.”
It is important to note that the Jewish brethren, that John baptized in water, were baptized (washed) BEFORE they confessed their sins. This quote, AGAIN, demonstrates that water baptism plays NO role in the remission of sins, or, the salvation of one’s eternal soul.
“To Him give all the prophets witness, that through His name WHOSOEVER BELIEVETH IN HIM SHALL RECEIVE REMISSION OF SINS.” (Acts 10:43)
Baptism into water DOES NOT remit sins. Immersion, by faith, into the virgin born life, death, burial, resurrection and ascension of Jesus is THE ONLY baptism that remits the sins of mankind.
“Therefore being JUSTIFIED BY FAITH, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ.” (Romans 5:1)~
