I don't believe any of these are/were offered salvation, even if they needed it....   

No Baptism's from me.

No baptisms from me.  What does that even mean?

It means that I will not Baptize any ET's.

Okay.  That makes sense.

Angels, demons and all manner of heavenly creatures exist and are mentioned in the Bible.  They are not of this Earth, therefore extraterrestrial creatures exist. 

But you don't expect to baptize some of them, do you?

We do know from reading both the old and new testaments that members of the Divine Council are judged, as are others.  Baptism does not apply to them.

Aliens are to humans as gentiles are to Jews. If you are sentient and accept God then who am I tell you otherwise?

Even if there were sentient aliens, and we met them, baptism is for believers in the Lord Jesus Christ, to identify with his death, burial and resurrection for them.  Jesus did not die for aliens, so baptism would be completely inappropriate.

The whole question is ridiculous and pointless.

Were not people baptized even before Jesus died? Wasn't Jesus himself baptized? It seems to me baptism is a symbolic public gesture taken to show love of, faith in and fidelity towards God. I see no reason why a hypothetical extra terrestrial could not partake if desired. After all, God is for all beings who desire him. No?

John's baptism was a baptism unto repentance, which baptism has been superseded by Christian baptism.  The baptism of John was the baptism that Jesus had.  Jesus did not need to repent himself, of course; but, he did that to identify with the repentant people of God and to pre-figure his death, burial and resurrection.

It is symbolic of the death, burial and resurrection of the Lord Jesus Christ.  It is a public testimony of our identification with him, in his death, burial and resurrection, and of our repentance/faith in him.

Acts 8:36-38 (Webster)

36 And as they went on their way, they came to a certain water: and the eunuch said, See, here is water; what doth hinder me to be baptized?
  37 And Philip said, If thou believest with all thy heart, thou mayest. And he answered and said, I believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God.
  38 And he commanded the chariot to stand still: and they both went down into the water, both Philip and the eunuch; and he baptized him.

The Lord Jesus came as a man, to die for men.  A profession of faith in Jesus is required, in order to be baptised.

There are many angels who desire God; but they are not baptised.  Baptism is for humans (I can hardly believe that I'm having to write this!).

    • Exhortation - October 24, 2024

      Albert Finch posted a blog entry in Albert Finch Ministry,

      You are coming up higher in this season – above the assignments of character assassination and verbal arrows sent to manage you, contain you, and derail your purpose. Where you have had your dreams and sleep robbed, as well as your peace and clarity robbed – leaving you feeling foggy, confused, and heavy – God is, right now, bringing freedom back -- now you will clearly see the smoke and mirrors that were set to distract you and you will disengage.

      Right now God is declaring a "no access zone" around you, and your enemies will no longer have any entry point into your life. Oil is being poured over you to restore the years that the locust ate and give you back your passion. This is where you will feel a fresh roar begin to erupt from your inner being, and a call to leave the trenches behind and begin your odyssey in your Christ calling moving you to bear fruit that remains as you minister to and disciple others into their Christ identity.

      This is where you leave the trenches and scale the mountain to fight from a different place, from victory, from peace, and from rest. Now watch as God leads you up higher above all the noise, above all the chaos, and shows you where you have been seated all along with Him in heavenly places where you are UNTOUCHABLE. This is where you leave the soul fight, and the mind battle, and learn to fight differently.

      You will know how to live like an eagle and lead others to the same place of safety and protection that God led you to, which broke you out of the silent prison you were in. Put your war boots on and get ready to fight back! Refuse to lay down -- get out of bed and rebuke what is coming at you. Remember where you are seated and live from that place.

      Acts 1:8 - “But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you, and you will be my witnesses … to the end of the earth.”

    • The Simchat Torah War -- Is this a Water Breaking Moment of Revival?

      George posted a topic in Biblical Topic Videos,

      George Whitten, the visionary behind Worthy Ministries and Worthy News, explores the timing of the Simchat Torah War in Israel. Is this a water-breaking moment? Does the timing of the conflict on October 7 with Hamas signify something more significant on the horizon?

    • Understanding the Enemy!

      George posted a topic in Study Group,

      Understanding the Enemy!

      I thought I write about the flip side of a topic, and how to recognize the attempts of the enemy to destroy lives and how you can walk in His victory!

      For the Apostle Paul taught us not to be ignorant of enemy's tactics and strategies.

      2 Corinthians 2:112  Lest Satan should get an advantage of us: for we are not ignorant of his devices. 

      So often, we can learn lessons by learning and playing "devil's" advocate.  When we read this passage,

      Mar 3:26  And if Satan rise up against himself, and be divided, he cannot stand, but hath an end. 
      Mar 3:27  No man can enter into a strong man's house, and spoil his goods, except he will first bind the strongman; and then he will spoil his house. 

      Here we learn a lesson that in order to plunder one's house you must first BIND up the strongman.  While we realize in this particular passage this is referring to God binding up the strongman (Satan) and this is how Satan's house is plundered.  But if you carefully analyze the enemy -- you realize that he uses the same tactics on us!  Your house cannot be plundered -- unless you are first bound.   And then Satan can plunder your house!

    • Abraham and Issac: Pictures of the Resurrection, Part 2

      George posted a topic in Study Group,

      Abraham and Issac: Pictures of the Resurrection, Part 2
      Shalom everyone,

      As we continue this series the next obvious sign of the resurrection in the Old Testament is the sign of Isaac and Abraham.

      Gen 22:1  After these things God tested Abraham and said to him, "Abraham!" And he said, "Here I am."
      Gen 22:2  He said, "Take your son, your only son Isaac, whom you love, and go to the land of Moriah, and offer him there as a burnt offering on one of the mountains of which I shall tell you."

      So God "tests" Abraham and as a perfect picture of the coming sacrifice of God's only begotten Son (Yeshua - Jesus) God instructs Issac to go and sacrifice his son, Issac.  Where does he say to offer him?  On Moriah -- the exact location of the Temple Mount.
