Question? In Luke 12:50 what did Jesus mean that he had a baptism to be baptized with?
Answer:
The Lord Jesus was referring to his going to the cross to be CRUCIFIED for our sins. The Lord CONSTANTLY kept telling his disciples that he was going to be BETRAYED and KILLED, but they did not understand this because they thought that he was here to set up his One Thousand year kingdom while here on earth..
The MOST IMPORTANT thing to know IS Jesus Christ as savior, just simply believe that Jesus Christ went to the cross and DIED and shed his blood, was BURIED and three days later RESURRECTED from the dead to pay for your sins.
-Christ DIED for you – Romans 5:8
-Christ PAID your sins in full – 2 Corinthians 5:21,1 Peter 2:24
-BELIEVE (Trust In Completely) in Christ ALONE as the complete payment of sin for salvation – John 3:16, Acts 16:31, Ephesians 2:8,9
“For the wages(payment) of sin is death (eternal torment in hell); but the GIFT(salvation) of God is eternal life THROUGH Jesus Christ our Lord”. Romans 6:23
IT IS THAT SIMPLE – THE GOSPEL TRUTH
