Subject: Is this about water baptism at all? |
Bible Note: Sniper: Thanks for replying. You bring a very interesting point to the dialogue. Perhaps, if the only living human to see your confession in baptism is the one doing the baptizing. Then again what if theoritacally some one had no one to baptize them and they went under the water themselves? I doubt that would happen but it's a thought. I too went to a baptist college and seminary, and we need to look at how others may think. No one has it all perfect. I sure don't think I've got it all worked out by a long shot. Thanks for your input. Peace and blessings. justme |
