 my question is once I was when I was around six or seven I think that's how what I was I got baptized in Jesus name and eventually received the gift of the Holy Holy Ghost I would like to know what that what she means by that well as a teenager around 16 I backslid and lived a sinful life up until around 45 years old in which I returned to Christ I repented of my sins and began my walk with God again here's our question my question is do I need to do I need to get baptized again or is that time that I did as a child still okay with God okay I don't know what you did as a child I could say some people get baptized in water and all I did was get wet okay thankfully it's not that baptism that saves you it's a different baptism the baptism of the Holy Spirit that you receive once you profess your faith in Christ you receive the Holy Spirit immediately now with regards to being baptized in you've led this life you've come to Christ you and everything is a okay you're doing what's supposed to do and you want to be baptized before the people make a public declaration of what's happened on the inside what God has done for you there's no rule in the Bible says you can't get baptized a second time or third time or what have you if you're reasonable getting baptized is to make a public declaration and you want the pep of the public to know this is you no problem with that at all nope nope there is there is no prohibition of doing so so if you're feeling like that's what you want to do well then I would say go ahead do that go ahead do that isn't there's there's nothing wrong with that at all
