Are You Really A Christian? Prove It.
Why You Need To Justify Your Salvation & How To Do It
“You can go down a dry sinner and come up a wet one”.
What it means is that baptism doesn’t save you nor make you a Christian.
Getting baptized is simply a signifier to the rest of the world that you have already received salvation through faith.
However, faith alone does save you nor does it mean you are a Christian. The bible says even the demons believe — James 2:19 (GNT)
