1 | How Does Baptism Save? | 1 Pet 3:21 | Searcher56 | 78343 | ||
Go back to post # 77597 ... In part ... "Corresponding to" or "symbolizes" (NIV) or "like figure" (KJV) is the Greek word antitupon. It means copy, a thing formed after some pattern, a thing resembling another, its counterpart. Baptism is a copy of or corresponds to something else. What is it? We need to look at the context. I see two choices - the flood or the ark? Which saved Noah and his family? It was the ark. -- Does the baptism have to be water baptism, or can it be being baptized by the Spirit? Remember Noah's 8 didn't get wet. |

True, Noah did not get wet. Noah was brought safely through the water though, and that is where the similarity is. God bless and have a good weekend:) |
