Listen to God, Not Scholars
Reading for May 16th: 2 Chronicles 21-24
Weekly reading for May 10-16: Acts 20-24
"And now why do you wait? Rise and be baptized and wash away your sins, calling on his name."
Acts 22:16
In the Ryrie Study Bible there is a footnote to this verse which says simply, "Baptism does not wash away sins."
That's pretty bold. There's no doubt Dr. Ryrie has reasons why he says that Acts 22:16 doesn't mean what it says, but it's still kind of startling to see such a denial of what the verse plainly says.
Don't let study Bibles deceive you. Do what God's Word says.
Father, give us the courage to reject the scholars' word and to obey Your Word.
