1 | What does it mean to be "in Christ?" | 2 Cor 5:17 | Reformer Joe | 100025 | ||
I would hasten to add that there is an external "putting on of Christ" which does not always correspond to the any true conversion of the individual. Just as one can be circumcised physically and not spiritually (Romans 2:28-29), so one can be baptized physically and not in the heart. --Joe! |
