[Vessel of Christ]

Hello everybody my real name is Paul, but you can call me Vessel of Christ, because that is what I am. I live only to serve the lord, and spread his message. My favorite bible verse is Revelation 21:6 "And he said unto me, It is done. I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end. I will give unto him that is athirst of the fountain of the water of life freely"

I live in good ol Alabama, and attend the First Baptist Church in my town. I never had to find Jesus, because he came to me. My father tells me that immediatley after I fell out of my mother I was baptized, and I was always raised to fear the Lord, and spread his message, and I will continue to do that until the rapture happens!

Mr. Paul,

Thank you for the polite Introduction and the nice verse. If I understand correctly, you've been exposed to infant baptism? Is this true? That would be quite unfortunate, as a real™ Baptism has some prerequisites!

Acts 2:38
Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost.

As you can see, Repentance is required. How did this take place within when you were a newborn infant?

Fortunately, Jesus is Merciful (Jonah 4:2) and once you choose Jesus in your adult life and repent properly, there is absolutely no reason not to get a proper Baptism!

Welcome to the Forum to lean and to obtain a salvation ticket to Heaven!




Yours in Christ,

Elmer

Well hello Mr.White! Yes I was exposed to infant baptism, and I was unaware of this particular Bible verse. I have already repented for my sin, but I still need to be properly baptized! Its 2AM here in Alabama, and I highly doubt the church is open, let alone performing baptisms at this hour. I suppose I will have to wait until tomorrow to have a proper baptism. Hopefully the Lord doesn't strike me down before then! Thank you for letting me know about my improper baptism Mr.White. YiC

Greetings Paul. There are many Black men where you live but there are few where I live. Are you a Black man? These are Baptists here and white people. I am allowed to participate because white people have a desire to diversify their environments with Black people. That is also why I am a student at the University of Wisconsin which is in Wisconsin. They are mostly white people here. If you are a Christian these white people will be glad you have come. If you are a white Christian they will be even more happy.

Well howdy there Mr."Rastafari" I usually don't take too kindly to foreigners, and darkies, but I believe you are correct in saying that these people will be happy if I am a white Christian, because after all white is right! Yee Haw!
