Can the Bible be used to refute false doctrine?
Sure. For instance:
Mark 16:16
King James Version (KJV)
16 He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned.
Acts 2:38
Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost.
Acts 22:16
And now why tarriest thou? arise, and be baptized, and wash away thy sins, calling on the name of the Lord.
1 Peter 3:21
The like figure whereunto even baptism doth also now save us (not the putting away of the sins of the flesh, but the answer of a good conscience toward God,) by the resurrection of Jesus Christ:
Obviously, Baptism saves us by washing away our sins and regenerating us in the Holy Spirit.
So, anyone who says that Baptism is not efficacious for salvation is thereby refuted.
Sincerely,
De Maria
