And almost all things are by the law purged with blood; and without shedding of blood is no remission. (
Hebrews 9:22)
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. (
Acts 2:38)
And that repentance and remission of sins should be preached in his name among all nations, beginning at Jerusalem. (
Luke 24:47)
Jesus Christ told us that remission of sins would be preached in His name starting at Jerusalem. In
Acts 2:38, Peter says that we are baptized in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins. Hebrews says without the shedding of blood, there is no remission of sins. You may say what you want, and have any other doctrine, but the Bible is clear that the Blood is applied for remission of sins, and this takes place at baptism in the name of Jesus Christ. It does not take place at faith, for if it did, baptism would not be necessary for salvation, and the scriptures would be a liar. But, let God be true and every man a liar.
It does not concern me what type of church you are part of. If you have not been born again the Bible way, you are still as lost as the rankest of sinner. If you tell a sinner that he/she does not need to be baptized, that is false doctrine and against scripture. Everyone wants scripture, and it is above. Without shedding of blood, there is no remission. We receive remission when we are baptized. Thus, the blood is applied at baptism.
