Repent And Be Baptized In Jesus’ Name
Repent and be baptized these words are the life-preserver for all mankind. I believe, these words have scared people for years for they have visions of foolish things happening and going on. I also remember the scripture Philippians 2:12 we are to work out our own salvation.

Acts 2:37-39 (NKJV) 37 Now when they heard this, they were cut to the heart, and said to Peter and the rest of the apostles, “Men and brethren, what shall we do?”
38 Then Peter said to them, “Repent, and let every one of you be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins; and you shall receive the gift of the Holy Spirit. 39 For the promise is to you and to your children, and to all who are afar off, as many as the Lord our God will call.”
All I am saying is I believe the scripture from the beginning to the end, I do not believe parts of it I believe it all. I also believe that God never made two of anything. We are all different and in the same way we need to seek our Father and find out who we are and what we are to do. I can not tell you that is between you and God I can teach and lead however that is what I do I can give you my thoughts although it is your place to work out your own salvation… I can tell you the first step is to know you need a savior, then we need to repent and ask for forgiveness. I do believe Philippians 2:12 comes into play we need to work it out ourselves.
How I can suggest and show you in the Bible, however, I think one has to get serious and pray and ask for guidance, I know what I do and have to do. I have a friend and this friend had it in their mind that to be saved they needed to speak in tongues and this person beat themselves up over it for years. I have However they did not give up. At first, I showed them scripture and talked to them and prayed with them. It happened a year ago now was I right or were they right. I believe that this person believed and when they got where God wanted them they got what was there for them. I believe we all need to seek Gods will in our lives…
