Subject: Is baptism a sign of the New Covenant? |
Bible Note: Greetings Joe! Is this the way that the average Jew understood circumcision? It seems to me that they viewed circumcision as necessary for being part of the covenant, which of course is why Paul had problems with the Judaizers They tried to take the same approach with salvation. But, more to the point, there still isn't any New Testament verse which speaks of any kind of sign of our New Covenant, so I would hesitate to apply that term to anything.
