Subject: Is baptism a sign of the New Covenant? |
Bible Note: Emmaus: I could not and would not disagree that the Bible says "this IS my blood of the covenant," Matt 26:28. However, my point was not that every verse in the Bible is to be interpreted literally. We know that the Bible often uses figurative language. As for the doctrine of transubstantiation, no, I do not agree with this teaching. My sincere thanks to you, Emmaus, for your careful, patient work in presenting the doctrines of your church, often in the face of much hostility. I would that everyone on this forum presented their beliefs with such clarity and courtesy as you consistently show. Grace and peace, Radioman2 |
