Biblical Salvation

[Mickey Mouse]

Funny...I wasn't talking about the thief on the cross. I was talking about God's impetus in baptism. What would you like to know about the thief on the cross?

Well, when you study control with differernt religious institutions, it seems that water baptism by specific spiritual leaders become a necessary requirement for salvation. I think the correct term is called baptismal regeneration.

What do you mean by "control?" Which religious institutions? Mine? My "institution" does not "require" baptism by a "specific spiritual leader" for salvation to occur.
It seems you're postulating based upon a number of assumptions that may or may not be valid.

Jas. 2:17-26 This almost didn't get canonized!
Those who know Salvation/Yeshua, do worthy works of redemption!

Shalom

As a consequent of, not an antecedent to justification.

No! The Way was predominately Jewish, pre-dating Christianity.
Read Acts 2, how many Gentiles can you find mentioned?
Peter addressed them "Men of Judea" no mention of the Nations!

Shalom

Do you mean Judeo-Christianity?

No! Predates Christianity, the Way,a sect of the Jews. Hebrews who had the testamony of Yeshua and keep his commandments. Sometimes called Hebrew Roots, sometimes called Messianic Judaism, but never the less they are "People of the Way."
The Disciples were first time called Christians by those pagans in Antioch, the disciples were of the Way. Just the same error as Columbus first called the natives of the future New World, Indians! Indians were half a world away. Christians like the Native Americans have kept a false image forever. LOL

Not even close!
Hebrew Roots or Messianic Judaish, there is only one Y H V H , not three persons so non-trinatarian, the Torah is the written Word of God, all other scriptures must comply to the Torah, so if any interpretation changes the meaning of Torah it is faulty commentary. Just as the Jews the Way is on every Christian heresy list.
There are people that say they are fundamentalist, but I've never seen many who abide with Torah. Torah is the foundation. Yeshua lived Torah perfectly up until the time he went back to the Father, there are a few Moedim he has not lived out, He will when he returns, then the Kingdom will fully come. If one is not Torah observant, he will be saved, but will not enter the city by it's gates. Nothing unclean will enter there-in.
