God is most amazing and beyond merciful to me. These verses clears up my confusion
Acts10:44 Whyle Peter yet spake these wordes the holye Ghoste fel on all them whyche hearde the preaching.10:45 And they of the circumcision, whyche beleued, were astonied, as manye as came wyth Peter, because that on the Gentils, also was shede out the gyfte of the holy ghoste.10:46 For they heard them speake wyth tounges & magnified God. Then aunswered Peter.10:47 Can anye man forbydde water that these shoulde not be baptysed, whiche haue receyued the holye ghoste as well as we?10:48 And he commaunded them to be baptysed in the name of the Lorde. Then prayed they hym to tarye a fewe dayes.
They received the Holy Ghost and spake with tongues BEFORE being baptised immersed in water!
Is baptism important 💯 yes it is very important because we are commanded to be baptised AFTER WE ARE SAVED FROM OUR SINS! But it does not add to our salvation or is not a part of the process of being saved!
Peter COMMANDED them to be baptized in the Name of the LORD, yes, its important.
So by the grace and mercy of God He led me to these passages through an unlikely source but I am thankful and eternally grateful.
Anyone tell you it is not important is a liar! It is important, but it does not save you, we are saved by grace through faith alone.
Thank you LORD Jesus Christ thank you!
