Baptismal Regeneration -tmp(Acts 2:38)
We came up against the apparent wall of {{Acts 2:38}} where
Peter is demanding that the crowd be baptized in order to receive
forgiveness of sin. Rory’s point which spurred the discussion seems to stand. Is
this proof of baptismal regeneration (with new meaning to {{Ephesians 4}})…even
though the rest of our study seemed to contradict this?
In our last post we touched on a few things. Namely, that
before Christianity there were ceremonial baptisms, or washings, of the Old
Testament and the baptism of John. We looked at John’s purpose in baptism and
we looked at what the people did as they went to get baptized. We also mentioned
some baptisms brought by Christ—one with the Holy Spirit and one with fire. Lastly,

Announcing Voices For Christ
I am proud to announce Voices For Christ, an online resource
offering sermons in a digital audio format and partially re-mastered for your
listening pleasure. My role in the project has been immensely small but a
certain Dwight Beavers has spent countless hours doing the conversion and
re-mastering. Many of the speakers are Brethren and you may recognize some of
the speakers but if anything, it is quite the resource. I like to listen to the
Bible or Preaching when I’m driving in the car. With the investment of a cheap
30 dollar mp3 player I can fit about 100 messages on a single cd! This site lets
you download the audios for free or compile a cd and they’ll burn it for you. The
library may change per month due to bandwidth issues, but there you go…the
Voices For Christ! I put them under Brethren resources.
