Table of contents

Early Christian art depicts Baptisms of persons standing in shallow pools with water poured on the head see David Scaer, Baptism, Lutherans have therefore held that the manner of Baptism that is, immersion, pouring, sprinkling, etc. However, I have been too shy to ask the pastor if we would need to be re-Baptized in order to be full communicants. Please discuss this with your pastor, who would be happy to discuss this issue with you and to answer any other questions you have about membership.

There is no need to be shy — pastors encounter these kinds of questions all the time. What about an infant or a child whose parents have fallen away from the faith? Good pastoral practice prior to Baptism includes a reminder to the parents about the necessity of such ongoing nurture in the faith. If parents request Baptism and do not openly refuse or reject this expectation, Lutherans have typically baptized their child or children.

Congregational and pastoral follow-up with parents and encouragement in their responsibility are also vital elements of good practice.

Forgiveness through sacrifice

Because of such conscientious care in such instances, the Baptism of a child often provides a wonderful occasion for restoring an inactive Christian family to the life of faith or even to bring the Good News of Jesus and His salvation to a family. Parental authority must be respected and a child should not be baptized against the clear objection of parents or guardians. But pastors may face difficult and complex circumstances in which parents are willing to permit Baptism but refuse to commit to ongoing Christian nurture.

Of necessity, therefore, pastoral judgment will have to be made in the individual case, since circumstances vary. For this reason, too, lay members of our congregations are urged to speak with their pastor about individual cases where they have a particular request or concern.

“How can I be saved?”

God's command to baptize Matt. There is not a single passage in Scripture which instructs us not to baptize for reasons of age, race, or gender. On the contrary, the divine commands to baptize in Scripture are all universal in nature. On the basis of these commands, the Christian church has baptized infants from the earliest days of its history. Since those baptized are also to be instructed in the Christian faith, Matt. According to the Bible, all people—including infants—are sinful and fall short of the glory of God Rom.

Like adults, infants die—sure proof that they too are under the curse of sin and death. According to the Bible, Baptism somewhat like Old Testament circumcision, administered to 8-day-old-babies — see Col. It is a wonderful gift of a loving and gracious God. Those churches which deny Baptism to infants usually do so because they have a wrong understanding of Baptism.

They see Baptism as something we do e.

All of this, according to the Bible, happens in Baptism, and all of it is God's doing, not ours. The promises and power of Baptism are extended to all in Scripture — including infants — and are available to all. Parents and sponsors then have the privilege and responsibility of nurturing the baptized child in God's love and in His Word so that he or she may know and continue to enjoy the wonderful blessings of Baptism throughout his or her life. While they may use a Trinitarian formula in their rite, they in fact deny the Trinity.

Since such is the case with the former Worldwide Church of God, it would be necessary for one to be re-baptized. Does God cause bad things or does he just let them happen? Does he punish or discipline? And what could be the purpose —such as when you lose your Mom at the age of 11 and she suffered so with cancer?

Does My Soul Sleep After Death? // Ask Pastor John

It's a sinful world. Because of that and since the devil is the prince of this world, as the Bible says, bad things happen to good people. But consider this. A lot more good has happened to people who love God in Jesus than bad. Read Psalm 90 and And consider how God can turn the bad things into good for those who love God Romans God does no evil. Yes, He can cause and allow bad things to come to us, but always for our good.

Scripture also gives witness to God punishing the wicked Proverbs and punishing individuals and even whole nations for evil Egyptians, Israel for their wickedness and idolatry, etc. But when it comes to sin, we Christians know that God has punished Jesus in our place for our sins, and that we are not punished. God disciplines those whom He loves. Read Hebrews We know that He works all things for our good. And that must be the purpose in your and your mother's case, although it may be a bitter pill to swallow. We must always turn to God in His Word and prayer for answers, never away from Him.

Sometimes the answers He has are not evident right now, but later. It may even be in heaven that we see and understand His purposes. In view of Scripture's wider teaching concerning forgiveness, it seems proper to understand Jesus' point in Matt.

Eternal life (Christianity) - Wikipedia

What Jesus is doing here, therefore, is issuing a strong warning to us to "search our hearts" to see if we really understand and accept the Gospel and its practical implications for our lives. If we say, "I want God to forgive me, but I refuse to forgive those who sin against me," we really don't know what "forgiveness" and "faith in Jesus" are all about. We cannot expect God to "forgive" us if the attitude of our heart reveals that we have no real understanding of or faith in his undeserved grace in Christ Jesus. Anyone who truly understands the true nature God's grace and forgiveness in Christ and puts his or her trust in that forgiveness will desire and seek to extend that forgiveness to others.

God's forgiveness is not a "reward" for our forgiving others, but once we receive it in true faith and gratitude it is impossible not to want to share it with others. Is it being sorry for your sins and confessing them to God, or does it mean to stop committing a certain sin? Like if you are stealing, does repentance mean to stop stealing because that would mean we can stop sinning, and we know we can never stop sinning. I have sins that I commit over and over again, not like I did before I was saved, but I still commit them.

So if I don't stop committing those sins repentance , does that mean that I am going to hell? And also, when the Bible talks about how worldly sorrow brings death but godly sorrow brings repentance and life, how do I know which one I have? This "godly sorrow" comes from the Holy Spirit convicting us with God's law. But the Bible also uses the work of repentance in a broader sense to include faith in Jesus our Savior.

This faith is produced by the Holy Spirit, who convinces us through the Gospel that our sins are forgiven for the sake of Jesus, who lived, died and rose again for us. Put those two concepts together and you have repentance in its fullest sense.

Jesus told His disciples in Luke that repentance and forgiveness of sins will be preached in His name to all nations. According to the Bible, those who are truly sorry for their sins and trust in Jesus as their Savior also want to turn away from their sins, intending with the help of the Holy Spirit not to keep on living a life of sin.

If we want to keep on sinning, we need to ask ourselves if we have really repented. However, we are weak human beings and although we do not want to commit the same sins again and again, we may sometimes fall into sin out of weakness. Whenever we sin, we know as John says that "if we confess our sins, [God] is faithful and just and will forgive our sins" for the sake of Jesus our Savior 1 John If repentance becomes a "game" with God, if we don't really want or intend to stop committing a certain sin say stealing , and if we go on stealing and living always in that sin of stealing, then we place ourselves in grave spiritual danger.

We need to ask that God the Holy Spirit give us the power to stop committing that sin and trust Him to help us fight against it. Sad to say, the desire to sin may come back at times, for which we will have to repent again. That's not the same as living in sin. We all commit all kinds of sins daily, for which we have to daily repent. As long as we are sorry for our sins and believe that God forgives our sins for Christ's sake, we will be forgiven and have eternal life.

  5. Worldly sorrow is the kind of sorrow Judas Iscariot had, which caused him to commit suicide. It was a self-centered remorse and despair that wrongly concluded that all was lost in this life, that there was no hope, that there was nothing God could do. Second Corinthians says that this kind of sorrow brings death. But godly sorrow is true sorrow over sin accompanied by trust in Jesus for forgiveness. This is the kind of sorrow Peter had after he denied Jesus, and it is the sorrow King David had after he committed adultery and murder Psalm Godly sorrow leads to life and salvation because it includes faith in Jesus Christ.
