1 | Is this about water baptism at all? | Acts 2:38 | disciplerami | 77492 | ||
Greetings Tim, I disagree because proper hermeneutics allows that God teaches us both explicitly and implicitly. Every direct command of God may have an equally valid implied command. Wisdom dictates that every and everyone's example are not to be followed, but we look for the approved ones. For example, we follow the pattern of 'unleavened' bread and 'fruit of the vine' because that is the example. Are there other types of bread and beverage we might choose to use? Sure, but not if we follow the principle that God's will is learned through Commands, Examples, and Necessary Inference [if God implies, we may safely infer]. If you do not adhere to this principle, then you would not object to serving cola and pizza as the elements. The immediacy of New Testament baptism, coupled with the purpose assigned to it by God [remission of sins, wash away thy sins] gives strong evidence that baptism today should be administered quickly. If we do not follow this pattern, what strange this might we invent? God bless, Disciplerami |
