In my friends baptist church, they passed around juice (instead of wine) and crackers. I couldn't have any because they said you neesed to be baptized, and I am not....can you tell me why this is?

Some people believe you have to be baptized to go to heaven. I don't believe that. Getting baptized is a public confession of faith, one you make after you are saved.

Truly I do not know too much about that but you need to be baptised to be accepted into the Christian faith.
I do know that other lovely members will answer your other questions.

Thank you guys ^_^ I don't think I need to be baptised because I would like to worship in my own way, and it seems a little weird to me, the idea that even if you are very faithful, you can't go to heaven just because you weren't baptised...but hey, thats just me c:

Hmmmmm, that is very strange. I am baptist and at my church you don't have to be baptized to partake in communion. I am not baptized but I am saved. Maybe they want to make sure you are serious about this(?), it is a very serious matter I don't know why they wouldn't let you...
And no I don't believe you need to be baptized to go to heaven, although you should. But say there was a sick man who was saved but he dies before he could get baptized, as long as he believes that Jesus dies on the cross for him (its a lot more complicated than just him dying on the cross for us though) then I believe he would go to heaven.

A lot of denominations believe different things, but yes, it is weird. It never says in the bible that you must be baptized to go to heaven. Its just an act of obedience.

My belief is that you don't. For sake of reference, Jesus told the man on the cross next to Him that he would be with Him in paradise that same day. He didn't get down off the cross and say, "Wait, let me baptize you first!" Romans also says that you need to believe and confess with your mouth. That's it C: That guy believed that Jesus was the Christ and he did confess it with his mouth. I believe Jesus saw that and wants to see the same in us. I don't think He wants us to obsess over things like juice vs wine. ^^ Purely my thoughts as some believe opposite.
Your grace abounds in deepest waters
Your sovereign hand
Will be my guide
Where feet may fail and fear surrounds me
You've never failed and You won't start now
So I will call upon Your name
And keep my eyes above the waves
When oceans rise
My soul will rest in Your embrace
For I am Yours and You are mine

I dont think so. Everyone who believed in the lord Jesus is baptized by his blood. So there for you are baptized by the word and the spirit!
keep my EYES above the WAVES

Just saying I believe that there are God's angels on earth because once when I was little I was running up a cement stair case at my old school and some kid ran literally right in front of me and I almost fell backwards and cracked my skull open (sorry if this is scaring any one with an image) and no one was behind me but I felt a push witch helped me keep my balance and not fall backwards.
Stay back, I'm nothing but a time bomb. If I'm roughed up or handled incorrectly, I might go off. You try to fix the problem and disable this bomb. If you succeed you don't need to find a tomb. But the chances are little to none that you can fix this problem. Stay back, I'm nothing but a time bomb.

Hey I write stuff like strange poems, usually aggressive or depressing, but I can do happy and light if I had a nice day, which is rare now. If you want to hear a poem from me send me a PM
