And He will certainly hear from heaven, forgive my sin and heal my land.

If it's not ALL for me, then NONE of it is for me..."

Please correct me if I am wrong. Didn't you post that a person could go to heaven without being baptized in Jesus Name?

I have been working all day. Delivering meals to our shut ins, studying for Sunday, an appointment with a new member in our church, four hours of years work. Just ordered some pizzas for my family and myself, this is our last weekend with our son before he leaves for Air Force Boot Camp in San Antonio Tuesday.

I wish your son the best, but you didn't answer. Do you believe one can go to heaven without being baptized in Jesus name?

I believe that when you repent you are forgiven. If you should die before baptism you'll go to heaven, otherwise you weren't forgiven. Baptism is an important next step among many next steps after salvation. Salvation occurs at faith/repentance/belief.

That's what I thought. So according to you one doesn't need his name or Spirit to be called his people. Romans 8:9
