Kevin wrote: Christians of all ages accept the clear teaching that salvation is by Faith
BLAINE: As a Christian, I also believe salvation is by faith, since only by faith can we please God. However, we show our faith by accepting the straight and narrow way into heaven--Baptism by water and fire are the requisites we must fulfill, "In order to fulfill ALL righteousness." (see Matthew 3:13-15) We cannot assume that the gospel is a buffet, allowing us to pick and choose whichever requirements we like, and rejecting the rest. Only a FALSE PROPHET will tell you baptism doesn't matter . . . KEVIN? (: "Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and MANY there be which go in thereat. Because strait is the gate , and narrow the way, which leadeth unto life, and FEW there be that find it. Beware of FALSE PROPHETS, which come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly are ravening wolves." >Matthew 7:13-15< ---------- "Let your speech be always with grace, seasoned with salt, that you may know how you ought to answer every man."
