Robbing people of Salvation using a dead robber
Many people are being taught to neglect baptism today, and are thereby being robbed of the opportunity to be saved.
- How wrong! How sad!
- How can we expose this great lie.
1. Jesus and the thief died on their respective crosses.
2. Jesus rose from the dead the third day.
3. Jesus was with His apostles 40 days before ascending into heaven.
4. About 10 days later the power came and the preaching began!
5. Then the baptising also began!
So what about that thief on the cross …
(i) They say that thief “wasn’t baptised”
(ii) That thief lived and died too early for baptism “in the name of Jesus” (Acts 2:38)
(iii) Baptism “in the name of Jesus” requires Jesus’ resurrection to have taken place
(iv) We are not living when that thief did!
