Yes. A person needs to believe in Christ Jesus and the gospel of salvation A person needs to repent from their previous life and self will. A person needs to confess their faith in Christ Jesus as their Lord and Saviour - usually done in the waters of baptism And a person also needs to be baptised in the Holy spirit with the Bible evidence of speaking in tongues. AND a disciple also needs to walk the walk and remain steadfast and true and loyal unto death or the Lord's return. No quitters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Waggles............................ Tongues has nothing to do with water baptism. If tongues were a requirement many baptized saved Christians would go to hell. Tongues is a minor spiritual gift. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tongues has everything to do with water baptism, as praying in tongues is the Bible evidence of baptism of the Holy Spirit - which is only one side of the coin; the other being water baptism by full immersion. A person must be born of water and spirit to enter the Kingdom of God. As for the voice gift of tongues - to another various kinds of tongues, to another the interpretation of tongues - this is one of three voice gifts operated at our worship meetings. Do all speak in tongues? Do all prophesy? No, not at meetings: but all members of our Pentecostal church can and do pray in tongues to God. All who believe and obey the gospel of salvation speak forth in new tongues when they receive the Holy Spirit, and all are water baptised.

Well that puts a lie to acts 10 then for the people there were saved before baptism and speaking in tongues Acts 10: 44 While Peter was still speaking these words, the Holy Spirit fell upon all those who heard the word. 45 And those of the circumcision who believed were astonished, as many as came with Peter, because the gift of the Holy Spirit had been poured out on the Gentiles also. 46 For they heard them speak with tongues and magnify God. Then Peter answered, 47 “Can anyone forbid water, that these should not be baptized who have received the Holy Spirit just as we have?” 48 And he commanded them to be baptized in the name of the Lord. Then they asked him to stay a few days. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They were baptised in the Holy Spirit and then they were baptised in water. It is not a matter of one before the other but of faithfulness in believing both are required. I received the baptism of the Holy spirit and spoke in tongues some thirty days after my water baptism. For others it was the other way around. But in the end I was born again of water and spirit.

The thief was saved by his belief that the Lord Jesus is God and thus had the power to save him. Hanging on a cross, the thief had an acceptable excuse not to be baptized in water. Do we have such a good excuse? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And he ate locusts and wild honey. 7 And he proclaimed, saying, There is One coming after me who is mightier than I, the thong of whose sandals I am not worthy to stoop down to loosen. 8 I indeed have baptized you in water, but He shall baptize you with the Holy Spirit.
