351: Lesson 17: Baptized Into Christ
... You still have all of your sins and are without hope. When is it that one becomes a new creation? Romans 6:3-4 says, "Or do you not know, that as many of us as were baptized into Christ Jesus were baptized into His death? Therefore, we were buried with Him through baptism into death: that just as Christ Jesus was raised from the ... No man has the power or authority to repeal what our Lord has said. Nor does anyone have the authority to rationalize it away and teach otherwise. Jesus said that we must be born of water and the Spirit. Jesus said that being born again must not only include the Spirit, but it must include water. Here we see that when one is baptized in ... Here we see that salvation is located in Christ, and for one to be eligible for salvation, he must be in Christ. If you are not in Christ, by being baptized into Christ, you have no hope or promise of salvation. It will be a horrible thing for a person, who thinks he is saved, when he stands before the Lord on the day of ... ...

352: CAN A CHRISTIAN BE LOST?
And suddenly there came from heaven a noise like a violent, rushing wind, and it filled the whole house where they were sitting. And there appeared to them tongues as of fire distributing themselves, and they rested on each one of them. And they were all filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit was giving them utterances. Please explain to me what the day of Pentecost is and the speaking of tongues! . . Facts about the day of Pentecost and tongues: The day of Pentecost here in Acts 2, happened in about 33AD. This was the day the Holy Spirit fell upon the twelve apostles. Thousands gathered to hear the first gospel sermon preached by Peter. The masses were amazed that the apostles were speaking in tongues (human languages that they had not learned) The masses were divided as to why the men were speaking in tongues. The Bible says: But others were mocking and saying, "They are full of sweet wine". Acts 2:13 Question: What did some men think about ... ...

353: What International churches of Christ believe/Kip McKean
Excerpted from the Official, World Headquarters, Creed of: International churches of Christ ICOC (Crossroads, Boston, Kip McKean, Discipling Movement) NOTE: This website is not affiliated with the ICOC and is presenting their beliefs for reference only. "We Believe That: Jesus, the Son of God, is our one and only Lord and Savior, crucified for our sins and physically resurrected from the dead on the third day. The Bible is the only inspired and inerrant message of God. One is saved by the grace of God and the blood of Jesus Christ; and a person must, through faith and obedience, reach out to receive this free gift of salvation. Only baptized disciples are members of Christ's church. After baptism every new Christian needs to be taught or "discipled" by older, more experienced Christians to obey all of Jesus' teachings (Matthew 28:20). Every disciple must be committed to the vision of building churches of disciples -- true churches of Christ -- in every nation on earth." Click Your ... ...

355: Official beliefs of the church of God (7th day)
Jesus Christ, the preexistent Son of God, is the Savior, Lord, and eternal Redeemer of all who truly believe. the Holy Spirit is the presence of God in believers - convicting, converting, teaching truth, prompting obedience, bearing fruit, distributing gifts, and empowering witness. humans are sinners by birth and by choice. Because our first parents disobeyed, sin and death follow on us all. We also have sinned in thought, word, deed, and in omission. Salvation is the forgiveness of sins and the gift of eternal life. It originates in God's grace, is achieved by the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ, and is personally received by faith. saving faith includes repentance, which activates obedience and good works through love - all produced by the Holy Spirit within. The regenerate Christian is obedient to the terms of the gospel, to the words of Christ, and to the enduring law of God summarized in the Ten Commandments. All the commandments remain as standards of holiness, including ... ...

358: Sola Scriptura and the Apostolic Fathers: 400 AD: Jerome
"Don't you know that the laying on of hands after baptism and then the invocation of the Holy Spirit is a custom of the Churches? Do you demand Scripture proof? You may find it in the Acts of the Apostles. And even if it did not rest on the authority of Scripture the consensus of the whole world in this respect would have the force of a command. For many other observances of the Churches, which are due to tradition, have acquired the authority of the written law, as for instance the practice of dipping the head three times in the layer, and then, after leaving the water, of tasting mingled milk and honey in representation of infancy; and, again, the practices of standing up in worship on the Lord's day, and ceasing from fasting every Pentecost; and there are many other unwritten practices which have won their place through reason and custom. So you see we follow the practice of the Church, although it may be clear that a person was baptized before the Spirit was invoked." (Jerome, ... ...

First, open your New Testament to the book of "Acts of Apostles" Chapter 11, verse 26. The last part of this verse says: "The disciples were called Christians, first at Antioch." The second time we find the name Christian is in the same New Testament book, "Acts of Apostles" Chapter 26, verse 28. The Apostle Paul was given an opportunity to speak before King Agrippa, and tell why he was a believer in Jesus. At the conclusion of his speech, King Agrippa said, "almost thou persuade me to be a Christian". The Apostle Peter gives us some very direct instructions formed in his first letter, I ... As a Christian I have the privilege of prayer. I can ask God to help me with every problem, and know He will answer. As a Christian my aim is living to please God. When I do this, I know I have the promise of a life, which will be better here on earth, and eternal life here after. Life is too short, and eternity too long for one to choose any other course.

That it was God's will that He give His life for His friends. He drank wine and broke bread with them, and told them, to remember Him when they did this from that time forward, to be reminded of His death and His promise to come again to take His own to a place He was going to prepare for them.

364: What role does the Holy Spirit in my Conversion?
Spirit's working in the Christian age is through the power of the Word, we must not be guilty of thinking the Spirit is not involved in our conversion. Conversion is the process by which man turns from sin to God. It is the "change" from the old life in sin to the new life in Christ. Conversion takes place in our mind, while forgiveness takes place in the mind of God. In the process of conversion, there are no new faculties or powers imparted that are felt in any physical way. Any theory which takes away the Word of God in conversion, or takes away man's responsibility or accountability, cannot be true. Jesus declared that the Holy Spirit would convict the world of ... If the Holy Spirit operates in a direct way, apart from the Word, why are there no Christians in some countries?

382: Lesson 19: Baptism Is Immersion
Could it be "because there was much water there" in a river? In Mark 1:9-10, we continue to read, "And it came to pass in those days that Jesus came from Nazareth of Galilee and was baptized by John in the Jordan. And immediately, coming up out of the water, He saw the heavens parting and the Spirit descending upon Him like a dove." When Jesus was baptized, he was baptized in the Jordan River. Why? Again, because there is much water in a river which is required for scriptural baptism, which is immersion. Also notice that after Jesus was baptized, he came "up out of the water." So scriptural baptism not only requires much water, but it also requires "coming up out of the water." This cannot be said of sprinkling or pouring. Next we turn to Acts 8:36-39. The evangelist, Philip, had been teaching the gospel or good news of Christ to an Ethiopian eunuch while they were riding along in a chariot. Then in verses 36-39 we read: "Now as they went down the road, they came to some water. And the ... ...
