Subject: What does water baptism do? |
Bible Note: baptism is a subject for which your point of view has been thoroughly exhausted. You are at the point of repeating yourself ad nauseam. We know which verse you cling to with all of your might. We know what your answer is going to be whenever anyone points out your error in interpreting Scripture. Your posts are on file with the forum, so anyone wanting to know the Church of Christ view on baptism can just read two of your posts and get the idea that everything in the New Testament hinges on Mark 16:16 and Acts 2:38. In other words, your posts contribute nothing new to this discussion, so please let it die. I think that both of us have treated the subject thoroughly, so let's let the rest of the universe dwell upon our lively discussion as it stands now. --Joe! |
