11"I
baptize you with water for
repentance. But after me will come
one who is more powerful than I,
whose sandals I am not fit to
carry. He will baptize you with
the Holy Spirit and with fire.
16As soon as Jesus was
baptized, he went up out of the
water. At that moment heaven was
opened, and he saw the Spirit of
God descending like a dove and
lighting on him.
(Matthew 3:11,16)
Jesus answered, "I tell you the
truth, no one can enter the
kingdom of God unless he is born
of water and the Spirit."
(John 3:5)
But when they believed Philip
preaching the things
concerning the kingdom of God,
and the name of Jesus Christ,
they were baptized, both men
and women. Then Simon himself
believed also: and when he was
baptized, he continued with
Philip, and wondered,
beholding the miracles and
signs which were done.
(Acts 8:12,13)
Then
Philip opened his mouth, and began
at the same scripture, and
preached unto him Jesus. And as
they went on their way, they came
unto a certain water: and the
eunuch said, See, here is water;
what doth hinder me to be
baptized? And Philip said, If thou
believest with all thine heart,
thou mayest. And he answered and
said, I believe that Jesus Christ
is the Son of God. And he
commanded the chariot to stand
still: and they went down both
into the water, both Philip and
the eunuch; and he baptized him.
(Acts 8:35-38)
And Ananias went his way, and
entered into the house; and
putting his hands on him said,
Brother Saul, the Lord, even
Jesus, that appeared unto thee
in the way as thou camest,
hath sent me, that thou
mightest receive thy sight,
and be filled with the Holy
Ghost. And immediately there
fell from his eyes as it had
been scales: and he received
sight forthwith, and arose,
and was baptized.
(Acts 9:17,18) |
