@JesusIs4Me,
I believe as the scripture I presented... One baptism...
If a person has been baptized in water, but that person had not been baptized with the Spirit of God, that person is not Christ.
Romans 8:9
But ye are not in the flesh, but in the Spirit, if so be that the Spirit of God dwell in you. Now if any man have not the Spirit of Christ, he is none of his.
I believe the tradition taught of us as to when the sanctification of the Spirit and the belief of the truth has been received which was at the calling of the gospel. 2 Thessalonians 2:13-15 KJV confirms this.
I also believe that because Philip was seen as a great man of God replacing Simon the sorcerer in the eyes of the Samaritans; that infamy of Simon was replaced by the "miraculous" Philip. By citing how Simon ALSO believed, places the Samaritans people in fanfare for why they were following Philip, being baptized by him and that was to behold miracles. So as simon's heart was not right with the Lord, the same ALSO was the Samaritans for why they had not received the promise of the Holy Spirit.
Acts 8:9 But there was a certain man, called Simon, which beforetime in the same city used sorcery, and bewitched the people of Samaria, giving out that himself
was some great one: 10 To whom they all gave heed, from the least to the greatest, saying, This man is the great power of God. 11 And to him they had regard, because that of long time he had bewitched them with sorceries. 12 But when they believed Philip
preaching the things concerning the kingdom of God, and the name of Jesus Christ, they were baptized, both men and women. 13
Then Simon himself believed also: and when he was baptized, he continued with Philip, and wondered, beholding the miracles and signs which were done.
When you consider that by believing in Him is how one receives the remission of sins and the promise of the Holy Ghost, then one can see why Luke had written that they only believed in the "things" Philip was preaching about and not necessarily the same as believing in Him.
At the end of that chapter, we see Philip preventing this oversight by others with the Ethiopian eunuch by asking him point blank if he believed in the Lord Jesus Christ before he water baptized him. So there is a difference between believing about the things regarding the kingdom of God and "about" the name of Jesus, as opposed to believing in Him in order to receive the remission of sins and the promise of the Holy Ghost.
No one should doubt that they had received the promise of the Spirit by faith in Jesus Christ at their salvation when they believe IN Jesus Christ, even IN His name rather than just believing the THINGS ABOUT Him.
I believe you have to be clear in your stance because there are believers out there that will say unless you speak in tongues, you do not have the Holy Spirit and therefore you are not saved. Some will take what you said that people will go through the motion and not believe in Him. But those out there reading this should know that they believe in Him to not doubt that they have received the promise by faith in Jesus Christ as promised and not by sight as if by a sign.
Matthew 12:39 But he answered and said unto them, An evil and
adulterous generation seeketh after a sign; and there shall no sign be given to it, but the sign of the prophet Jonas:
Hebrews 11:1Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. 2 For by it the elders obtained a good report. …..
6 But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him.
Galatians 3:
14 That the blessing of Abraham might come on the Gentiles through Jesus Christ; that we might receive the promise of the Spirit through faith.....
26 For ye are all the children of God by faith in Christ Jesus.
Those who exalt themselves by that sign of tongue or some other sensational sign in the flesh over other believers as if they had not received the promise of the Holy Spirit when they had come to and believed in Jesus Christ, do so in harming the body of Christ as well as departing from faith in Jesus Christ in chasing after seducing spirits and doctrines of devils. The not so funny thing about it, as much as they promote that second blessing or that event when they believe they were truly saved, it can happen again to the same believer and again and again after other signs of confusion and not just tongues without interpretation assumed in error to be for private use. So no.
To avoid that and to maintain the traditions taught of us, when anyone believed in Jesus Christ even in His name, they are saved as having received the promise of the Spirit by faith in Jesus Christ; Ephesians 1:11-15 KJV confirms.
and proceeding out of my mouth
