Title: ARE YOU SURE YOU WILL BE RESURRECTED ?
Post by: dan p on June 24, 2021, 02:54:02 PM
In  1  Cor 15:29 Else  , what shall they do which are  baptized  for the  dead , if the  dead rise not at all ?

 Why are they then  baptized  for the  dead ?

 Is this  baptism for the  dead for today ?

 Yes  or  No ?

 I say  YES , that all believer have to be  Baptized for the  dead .

 What say you ??

Why must people make God's word to be so complicated? Why do they feel the need to take just one verse and then use the surgeons scalpel and microscope to each portion of that verse? Read the entire chapter to gain proper context. There were people that were doubting the resurrection at the second coming. 1. We are all sinners. 2. Christ died for our sins and rose the third day (resurrected). 3. Those who believe, confess their sins and accept Christ as their Savoiur are saved. 4. Those who are saved will rise (including those who are dead) at the second coming of Christ therefore resurrected just as Jesus was.

And there are answers to  1 Cor 15:29 and we know that the  Sadducee , did not believe in the  resurrection .

1  Cor  15:29 is there for a  reason and I will present my explanation of it .

 Reading  Rom 6:3  that as many were PLACED / BAPTIZO into His  death .

And by the way the  Greek word HIS /AUTOS is a  Personal possessive  pronoun . And in verse 4 we were through this  BAPTISMA   (  which is the  Holy spirit which means that He is the only  BAPTIZER  )   in the age of  Grace , like in Eph 4:5  , called   ( ONE BAPTIZER  )

 So all believers That are in the  B O C  will be  resurrected , because threy are baptized for the dead , by the  Holy  Spirit .

Some Corinthian Christians were baptized vicariously on behalf of some who’d already died, seeking a spiritual benefit. The problem with this view, though, is twofold. First, there is no precedent for baptism for the dead in the Bible, the early church, or pagan religions. No one knows who did it or what spiritual benefit they sought. Secondly the notion of Christians being baptizing for the sake of those who’ve died offends the Bible. It's like a magical sacramentalism. It is contradict justification by faith alone.

 And just last week , Im heard a knock on  my door , a  salesman and found out , he  believed in Baptism for  the dead .

 They believe in the  bible and also there Historical  book .

 But could not explain  verse 3 , Greek word HIS / AUTOS  which is a Personal possessive  Pronoun  in the  Genitive  Case .

 Or explain 6:4  NOT / OV  which is a  Disjunctive  Particle  Pronoun , which is NEGATIVE .

 Check  blue  Letter  Bible and all will see , what I saw .

Yes, when we accept Christ as our Saviour we are are baptized by the Holy Spirit and we are indeed baptized into the death of Jesus Christ. The old man in us dies and we are born again. The doctrine of baptizing the dead is a false doctrine as salvation is a personal decision that we cannot make for anyone else including those who are already dead.
