Bible Note: alanh, Welcome to the Forum. I notice you're advocating baptismal regeneration, but I'll leave that point for now. You say "According to Ephesians 4 there is only one baptism today and that is water baptism." My question is: Where does that leave us with 1 Cor. 12:13 which states "For by one Spirit we were all baptized into one body, whether Jews or Greeks, whether slaves or free, and we were all made to drink of one Spirit" ?
