Subject: Is BAPTISM a SYMBOL? |
Bible Note: Excellant answer Robert! I understand baptism to be an outward proclamation that symbolizes our inward change to live for Christ. Although, baptism is not mandatory for a person to have eternal life it is exactly what Robert said, obedience to our Lord. We are saved by trusting and believing in our Lord Jesus and not by any other thing. v/r Bill |
