1. What if I don’t get baptized? Will I lose my salvation?

A. Due to inadequate knowledge

A person who dies without getting baptized because of not fully knowing the Lord’s command to do so will not lose his place in heaven. It would be so similarly, if it is due to lack of time prior to death or other practical consideration.

Mark 16:16 “Whoever believes and is baptized will be saved, but whoever does not believe will be condemned”.

Baptism is not a Pre condition for salvation but rather a product that should follow.

How to handle crisis Like Jesus did? Bible study on feeding the 5000

Bible study on Matthew 14:13-21 How to handle crisis Like Jesus did? Feeding the 5000

Introduction

Though today's Bible study is based on Matthew 14:13-21, we must understand that it is related to the previous verses. I have given the first part of the verse below. First read it carefully.

"Now when Jesus heard this (When He heard of John the Baptist's death) he went away from there privately in a boat to an isolated place. But when the crowd heard about it, they followed him on foot from the towns…." Matthew 14:13-21 (Emphasis mine)

So as we see that the first crisis (disguised as persecution) breaks out in first 12 verses of chapter 14. And the rest of the narrative explains how Jesus responded to this crisis situation? Let's see what can we learn from this story.
