| 2. Acts 2:38 | Repentance necessary before baptism. (It will be helpful to write in the margin close to this verse the Greek word translated into English as "repent". It is the Greek word "meta-noeo". "Meta" implies change. "Noeo" means "to perceive". In other words, "to change what is perceived with the mind". Repentance is a change of mind from following one's own flesh, self-will and desires to obeying God.) |
