The concepts haven't been lost. A lot of them are false to start with. Baptism is biblical and is still practiced today. Believers baptism is what is described in the bible which is one of 2 sacraments the Bible describes. It is a sign of public profession of faith (in the gospel message) and is symbolic of the death, burial, and resurrection of Christ as well as the death, burial and resurrection (to come) of the new believer. Baptism for the dead accomplishes nothing and there is no biblical basis for it. Church organization is outlined in the bible and most Bible centered churches use the model. Satan and Christ were NEVER brothers. Christ is part of the trinity, God the Father, Son and Holy Ghost, 3 different beings in one person. Lucifer (Satan before the fall) was an angel and as such is a CREATION of God, not a brother of God. There is/was eternity past, the need for a prophet is in the Bible but there is no need for any further prophecy, the last true prophecy will be given during the tribulation by the witnesses at the temple. Many false "prophecies" will be prophesied and fulfilled by the AntiChrist and many will be deceived including many born again christians. There is no eternal marriage. The bible clearly states that there is no marriage in heaven, excepting that of Jesus to his bride, the church, i.e., the believers. Gifts of the Spirit still exist, however not all of them are still given out. There is no more need for tongues, healings, prophecies, etc., because we have the complete revelation of God's word today and the church is already established. The body of believers (those who have accepted Christ as their Savior) are declared a "royal priesthood" in the Bible. You asked a great question(s) and the answers I've given aren't even the tip of the iceberg! Hope I've helped you out some. God bless.

Baptism has not been lost...it still exists
Church organization...we Catholics are very organized
Prophecy...none needed...no-one else comes after Jesus
Satan son of God....are you serious?
*********** Satan and Lucifer are NOT the same! See link below.
No need for a prophet
Temples....there are mansions in heaven
eternal marriage....that is our destiny with Jesus christ
gifts of the Holy spirit...they certainly still exist
authority...we Catholics have that, too. Protestants shy away from it
Priesthood...we Catholics have that, as well. Jesus did indeed have the Melchizedek priesthood.....of wine and bread...same as used by Catholic/Orthodox priests today.
