Passage |
New International Version |
Mark 16:16 |
Whoever
believes and is baptized will be saved, but whoever does not believe will
be condemned. |
Acts 2:38 |
"Repent and be
baptized, every one of you, in the name of Jesus Christ for the
forgiveness of your sins. And you will receive the gift of the Holy
Spirit. |
1 Peter 3:18-22 |
He was put to death in
the body but made alive by the Spirit, through whom also he went and
preached to the spirits in prison who disobeyed long ago when God waited
patiently in the days of Noah while the ark was being built. In it
only a few people, eight in all, were saved through water, and this water
symbolized baptism that now saves you also--not the removal of dirt from
the body but the pledge of a good conscience toward God. It saves
you by the resurrection of Jesus Christ, who has gone into heaven and is
at God's right hand--with angels, authorities and powers in submission to
him. |
