QUESTION 13

  1. Concerning Peter’s command in Acts 2:38 to “repent and be baptized for the remission of sins,” Ger holds that

    This should be understood at face value to teach that water baptism is necessary for salvation.

    The word eis, translated “for,” should be understood to mean “because of,” and shows that baptism follows and should be the result of receiving forgiveness of sin.

    Water baptism is a physical action that reflects and corresponds to the spiritual reality of repentance. Baptism does not save, but is a closely related sign of repentance.

    The command to be baptized can be seen from the Greek grammatical construction to be a parenthetical idea. Repentance is linked in this verse to the forgiveness of sin based upon grammatical agreement in both person and number (both are second person plural), while the command to be baptized is third person singular. The meaning is “Repent for the forgiveness of your sins, and be baptized.”
