YOU HAVE ASKED

Recently someone asked, "Some preachers place a lot of emphasis on repentance these days, this causes me to wonder if one does not have a real deep feeling of repentance at the time of his baptism then how sound is that baptism? I have always felt that faith in Christ as the Son of God was the most important thing."

WHAT DOES THE BIBLE SAY? let's look

PHILLIP'S WISE ADVICE

In John 1:43-51 there is a discussion between two brothers: Philip and Nathaniel. Nathaniel’s question has become famous, “Can any good thing come out of Nazareth .” Let’s focus on Philip's answer, which shows great insight.

Nathaniel would no doubt greet the news of the Messiah with great enthusiasm. However, he would prefer the Messiah come from a more important place, such as Jerusalem , not from such a small, poverty-stricken area as despised Nazareth . Philip did not rebuke or challenge Nathaniel’s question; he simply said, “Come and see.” In other words come and find out for yourself. The fact is someone always wants to criticize what God has put in place; whether the church, the worship of the church, or even Christ himself. Rarely do critics take time to “come and see” for themselves. As Phillip invited Nathaniel to scrutinize the credentials of the one claiming to be the Messiah, we, also, invite you to come and investigate the matter for yourselves.

The fact that Christians assemble every Sunday is a testimony to the resurrected Christ. What does this great event declare, and why is it so important? continue
