blesoh:Jesus did not tell u to go baptizing ppl in water o. He was talking abt baptism of the Holy Spirit. Jesus told John dt water baptism was to 'fulfil all righteousness'. What do u think dt meant? It certainly did not mean dt u should be immersed in water b4 communion. The apostles were probably not even baptised, yet they ate bread |
Re: New Comer Partaking In Communion Right Or Wrong by iliyande(m): 3:39pm On Mar 29, 2015 |
Bobbysworld28:All the early Christians were baptized. Don't be deceived. Water Baptism is an indication that you have received salvation through JESUS christ, that's Jesus himself was baptized by John in the river. Baptism of water remains criteria for any Christian. When Paul was arrested by Jesus he was directed to be baptized. |
Re: New Comer Partaking In Communion Right Or Wrong by Nobody: 3:57pm On Mar 29, 2015 |
iliyande:Baptism doesnt immediately connote water baptism o. Dts y I referred u to John's statement talking abt what Jesus' baptism is all about |
Re: New Comer Partaking In Communion Right Or Wrong by blesoh(f): 4:50pm On Mar 29, 2015 |
Bobbysworld28:water baptism is a command dat must be obeyed,if not y did Jesus not skip it since its nt necessary. Baptism is necessary once u accpt Jesus. |
Re: New Comer Partaking In Communion Right Or Wrong by blesoh(f): 4:52pm On Mar 29, 2015 |
iliyande:this is beautiful,i dont knw hez insisting its nt necessary.wen Jesus baptise dat was wen d heavens open,dont joke wid baptism.it cleans u frm ur old life |
Re: New Comer Partaking In Communion Right Or Wrong by blesoh(f): 4:54pm On Mar 29, 2015 |
Bobbysworld28:so u tink baptism of d holy spirit comes easily? It follows due process. |
Re: New Comer Partaking In Communion Right Or Wrong by blesoh(f): 4:57pm On Mar 29, 2015 |
Bobbysworld28:Jesus said baptise them,so if u check d statement it means water baptism cos baptism by d holy spirit can neva be done by anybody.excpt God |
Re: New Comer Partaking In Communion Right Or Wrong by Nobody: 5:01pm On Mar 29, 2015 |
blesoh:U dont get it, do you? Jesus did not instruct u to go dipping ppl in water. His own baptism is not of water, dts y he did not baptize anyone into water. mat3.11-12.kjv I indeed baptize you with water unto repentance: but he that cometh after me is mightier than I, whose shoes I am not worthy to bear: he shall baptize you with the Holy Ghost, and with fire: Whose fan is in his hand, and he will throughly purge his floor, and gather his wheat into the garner; but he will burn up the chaff with unquenchable fire. So y exactly will Christ tell u to keep going into water when he has a different baptism for u? |
Re: New Comer Partaking In Communion Right Or Wrong by Nobody: 6:51pm On Mar 29, 2015 |
blesoh:So baptism cleaned Jesus up? R u joking? See John's father was a priest under d law. He was even d High Priest at d time John was conceived so by birth John should be a Levite. John at this point represented d levitical priesthood and d contact in baptism signified a hand-over process (d chang of priesthood to come). Dts y John told Jesus dt it was not necessary for Jesus to be baptized. Jesus, seeing the bigger picture said it was to fulfill all righteousness. Please dont ever say in public dt baptism purifies u, ok? |
Re: New Comer Partaking In Communion Right Or Wrong by Nobody: 6:54pm On Mar 29, 2015 |
iliyande:Baptized with the Holy Spirit not water baptism. Get ur facts right |
Re: New Comer Partaking In Communion Right Or Wrong by iliyande(m): 10:31pm On Mar 29, 2015 |
Bobbysworld28: As far as Christianity is concern you are not a Christian except you are baptized. Take it or not. If Jesus himself got himself baptized to illustrate to us the importance of baptism then who are you today arguing with the Jesus doctrine? |
Re: New Comer Partaking In Communion Right Or Wrong by Nobody: 6:48am On Mar 30, 2015 |
iliyande:Yes. Baptism of the Holy Spirit and not water baptism. John's baptism (water) CANNOT make anyone a Christian. He himself confirmed dt it was d lesser one. Ok how come Jesus did not dip anyone in water? |
Re: New Comer Partaking In Communion Right Or Wrong by iliyande(m): 7:38am On Mar 30, 2015 |
Bobbysworld28:And what was the instruction given to Paul when he was converted? |
Re: New Comer Partaking In Communion Right Or Wrong by Nobody: 7:56am On Mar 30, 2015 |
iliyande:Please quote. I am not saying dt u should not get urself dipped in water. It is just what it is - to fulfill all righteousness. The greater revelation is to be baptised in the Holy Spirit, dts wht Jesus baptizes with |
Re: New Comer Partaking In Communion Right Or Wrong by blesoh(f): 11:37am On Apr 10, 2015 |
iliyande:baptism by water is very necessary it comes b4 d spirit,dont knw y hez arguing 1 Like |

Receiving the Holy Communion is supposed to be a free will issue and it is not something you take at will. You must have prepared you mind to receive it. Even regular members of a congregation may decide not to take it due to their lack of spiritual preparedness. So the Pastor need not get angry if he really understood the mystery of this act of worship. |

Bobbysworld28: There's a diff btw 'communion' & 'holy communion'.....dnt b deceived. Most of thoz occultic pastors use it as a means of tracking ppl spiritually. You may not undestand d process, bt i tell u, tht so many families are facing d consequence of this action without knowing d source of it... |

blesoh:Is it about the church or about the body of Christ? Are you born again? This is very important. If you are born again it doesnt matter where or wen. You are entitled to take communion. Pentecostal is not Catholic that if one is not a Catholic you don't take communion. Go do a research about communion, what does the Bible say about it. Stop depending on people to tell you Stuff. What does the Bible say? |
Re: New Comer Partaking In Communion Right Or Wrong by blesoh(f): 6:25pm On Feb 26, 2016 |
analice107:Did you even go through my topic? I guess no. Let me enlighten you. I don't attend this church and as a first timer how do I take communion in such a situation. Do you take it any how as far as its a church without knowing the background, please spare me all the preaching cos I know what the word of God says. |
Re: New Comer Partaking In Communion Right Or Wrong by analice107: 11:49pm On Feb 26, 2016 |
Bobbysworld28:My dear, you lack understanding as to the real reason for Baptism. For Jesus, it was to fulfill all righteousness, but for you, it's not to fulfilled all righteousness. Let's see what the scripture says. Romans 6:3. Know ye not, that so many of us as we're baptized INTO Jesus Christ were baptized INTO his death? Col 2:12. Buried with him in baptism, wherein also you are risen with him through the faith of the operation of God, who hath raised him from the dead. 13. And you being dead in your sins, and the uncircumcision of your flesh, hath he made alive together with him, having forgiven you all trespasses... Let's pause here and peruse these scriptures. First and foremost. Baptism is a Kind of initiation into Christ. It confirms your membership in the body of Christ. THEN BEING BABRIZED INTO HIS DEATH. What does this mean? Do you know the state of a sinner? Do you know that as a sinner you are dead? To partake in the blessedness that is in Christ, you must understand what being dead means and what orchestrated it. If you understand it, then you will understand why Christ came and the need for him to die in the first place. When that's done, then you can appreciate what he has done and IDENTIFY with him in his death, which shd actually be your place. This is what it means to be baptized into his death. What does circumcision mean? Taking away the old that the new may emerge. Cleanliness from the old dirts. Your sins made you dead, your beauty was hidden. A dead person is faced with decay and desolation. No one wants to associate with a corpse. But came down into that grave and pulled you up. RAISED YOU UP, through Baptism. Have you thought why Jesus went all the way to Jordan to be Baptized in a river? Pick up your Map and check the distance and you will see it wasn't a joke. When you get emersed INTO, you go down dead in your sins, but when you come up out of that water, you get raised up. Cleansed, your dirt gone, your sins buried and forgiven. You are raise a new man. You come up a member of the body of Christ, which is his church. A baby can't have the knowledge of sin, will not understand the implication of spiritual deathness. So won't appreciate the finish work of Christ, and cannot identify with his death. Jesus said, go into the world and make disciples of all MEN, Baptizing them, in the name of the Father, son, and the Holy Ghost. They can't be Baptized until they are made disciples, and kids can't be disciples. Who is a disciple? He must understand his duties, and responsibilities. He must know his boundaries. He must recognise who the master is. @ops, pls read your Bible, the time is very short. The New Age has come up with a name for their religion, The ONE World Religion. It's called OMEGA FAITH. in this Omega Faith, atheist, Satanists, muslims, lesbians, homosexuals, Christians, magicians, occultist, everyone is free to practice his religion. They are brutal in their evangelism. And they are recruiting fast. What does that tell you? Jesus said, when you see the fig tree blossoming then know that the end is near. The signs are too obvious now than before. I don't think i will be so wrong If I say the Antichrist is already born, and is growing somewhere waiting for the Holy Spirit who is hindering him to be removed from the world. Don't just stand there and be sceptical about Christ and his operations. Pick your Bible now and check things out for yourself. And as a member of his body you partake of his communion. But again. I will agree with you Ops. I also won't take communion anyhow. I won't take communion in some churches too. Yea |

blesoh:To fully partake in the eternal covenant that is Jesus Christ, Jesus Christ taught His followers that one is required to eat of the body and drink the blood of Jesus Christ - John 6 vs 40 - 57. And clearly, once you sign your soul over to the covenant, there is no going back and the eternal end for those who upon receiving eternal life refuse to obey the fine print of God's Law is eternal damnation. So, it is not OK to eat the last supper in ignorance as the cost to one's soul may be eternal. You and your husband did no wrong! Sadly, many ignorantly eat without first understanding that they are likely sealing their fates for eternal damnation by that ritual. |
Re: New Comer Partaking In Communion Right Or Wrong by Kobojunkie: 11:18pm On May 19, 2023 |
evjblizee:This is not true at all! Rather, you are meant to eat the Last supper as part of the process of becoming born-again as it represents your signing of the contract that is Eternity in the Kingdom of God. In John 6 vs 25 - 59, Jesus Christ took time to explain that those who do not eat of His body and drink of His blood do not have a real life. So, one of the requirements necessary for those who are newly born-again or about to be is to eat His body and drink His blood as part of the sealing of the deal. 47 “I can assure you that anyone who believes has eternal life. |
Re: New Comer Partaking In Communion Right Or Wrong by Kobojunkie: 2:06am On May 23, 2023 |
iliyande:It doesn't help. Jesus Christ said that His followers — those already born-again— each the last supper in remembrance of Him. He never said that only those of them who are without sin should partake in it. |
