Q:  Does the single act of being baptized save people without first being saved?

A:  Being baptized is a work of faith and public testimony of our Christian faith, but
     it is not salvation.  By faith we are saved and not by works least any person 
     boast.

Q:  Is being baptized a requirement to enter the kingdom of heaven?

A:  Those who are saved and baptized shall be saved.  Yet the second thief on the
      cross had no time to become baptized and Jesus told him, "This day you will be
      with me in paradise."

Q:   What is water baptism?

A:  Our first public testimony of our newly found faith in Jesus Christ.  Thereby also
     participating in the death, the burial and the resurrection from the dead of Jesus
    Christ.  Because he rose from the dead on the third day, we shall also be raised 
    from the dead. 

 A:  Yes water baptism in the name of the Father, the Son and the Holy Ghost is of
       the uttermost important.  But it is not salvation--itself. We are only  saved by the 
       shedding of the perfect blood of the Lamb of God, Jesus Christ,  who died on 
       Calvary's cross as a sacrificial atonement for our sins.  For without the shed
      ding of blood there is no remission aka cancellation of our sins. 

Q:   By what method did John the Baptist and the disciples of Jesus conduct
       water baptism in the Jordan River?

A:   By complete immersion in the Jordan River.  Immersion is the only recogniz
      ed Biblical form of water baptism practiced and acceptable in the holy Bible.

Q:  Will not being baptized by immersion and being baptized by sprinkling water
      instead really disqualify born again believers from the kingdom of heaven?

A:  Not unless they are relying being baptized as: either infants or young children,
     or older youths or adults without  actual salvation's' experience.  Being bap
     tized all alone will not gain believers access into the kingdom of heaven. 

 A:  Any more than merely attending church services, volunteering in the church
      and/ or communities, neither tithes nor offerings.  By grace are we saved not
      by our works least any man or woman should boast about them.

Q:  Are people filled with the Holy Ghost upon being born again?

A:   All born again believers are indwelt by the same Holy Spirit that raised Jesus
      Christ, Himself from the dead.  Yet speaking in tongues is not required for our
      salvation's of our spirits.
