Teaching review on the importance of Baptism by brother Eli Soriano on Thursday the 14th of March 2024
Still on the teaching on the true and pure doctrine of our Lord Jesus Christ brother Eli on his teaching yesterday emphasised on the importance of Baptism for every child of God who have accepted Jesus Christ as his Lord and Savior
He taught the meaning of baptism from the book of TITUS 3:5 we understand that baptism means the washing away of generational sin that is the sin that we came into world with so baptism must involve washing and not sprinkling you must be deep into water so your head and your feet can be washed ACT 22:16 when been baptised it must be with the name of Jesus and not another other name and we must be conscious to be baptised in the right place
Also we must learn to obey the law of God and not to be people who are rebellious or disobedience we understand from EZRA 7:23 everything that have been commanded by God should be obeyed diligently and done without complaining or murmuring but delightfully obeying his commandments the law of the Lord is there to mould our behaviour especially in the house of God 1 TIMOTHY 3:15 we should stand by the truth of the scriptures and live a life that will be an example to people who have not yet come to the knowledge of Christ so through us the can be saved and one the the first commandments of God we must obey is from MATTHEW 28:19 Jesus commands us to go into the world and preach the gospel of salvation and then also baptising everyone in the name of the Father Son and the Holy Spirit Baptism is very important it brings us into the family of Christ it is until we are baptised that we can have the full Trinity in us and until them we cannot receive the gift of the Holy Spirit ACTS 2:38
It is also important to know that there's a place chosen by God where baptism should take place not just anywhere DEUTERONOMY 12:5
SCRIPTURAL BACKUP
2 CORINTHIANS 7:16
COLOSSIANS 1:18
EPHESIANS 4:4-5
EXODUS 20:7
PSALM 139:20
IN CONCLUSION
We should be very observant and careful not to be deceived by many false prophets who will come in the name of Christ pretending to be him these are the Anti Christ as seen from MATTHEW 24:4-5 but the Bible said also that by their fruits we shall know them they are those who are not working in line with the commandments of God and his doctrine from the scriptures
We should also understand from HEBREW 3 :6 that we are the house of God Christ dwells in us so we should not live a life that will disgust him our lifestyle should be to give glory to Him our Body is the temple of God and Christ is the High Priest over us so we should not corrupt the temple of God or make it Holy God is Holy and we must be Holy also HEBREW 3:1, HEBREW 10:21 , 1 CORINTHIANS 3:16 Let our life bring glory to God and make multitude turn to Him
GLORY TO JESUS
GOD BLESS MCGI
GOD BLESS THE MEMBERS OF THE CHURCH OF GOD
