1 | N.T. circumcision? | Col 2:12 | Ray | 22907 | ||
Hi charis, I think that the Jeremiah 4:4 quote goes well with Matthew 3:11 where it reads, "As for me, I baptize with water for repentance, but He who is coming after me is mightier than I, and I am not fit to remove His sandals; He will baptize you with the Holy Spirit and fire." Mattew 3:12, "His winnowing fork is in His hand, and He will thoroughly clear His threshing floor; and He will gather His wheat into the barn, but He will burn up the chaff with unquenchable fire." So I agree with the responders so far in your thread. Later, Ray |

Dear Ray, Greetings in Jesus' name! You wrote, "I think that the Jeremiah 4:4 quote goes well with Matthew 3:11..." Why do you think they go well? Please look at my reply to Searcher and Nolan, and tell you what you think of a connection with all three baptisms; water, Spirit and fire. This would seem to be more consistent with your verses from Matthew. As I said, It is very difficult to 'shut out' water baptism from these verses in Colossians, due to the reference to burial and resurrection. Thanks for your input. In Christ Jesus, charis |
