Bible Note: Thank you for the clarification, Emmaus. I base my belief that Christ did not Baptize anyone on verse 2 of John 4. Verse 2 clarifies verse 1 of that chapter. Lutherans, Anglicans, and Episcopalians take quite similar positions. Although not sui iuris, they have retained much of the doctrines of the Western Catholic Church. I appreciated your comments regarding the cleansing power of Christ. Yet, there is a consistency in both old and new covenants. In both, the means of becoming clean originates with God. This state is necessary not for the sake of God, but for the sake of His people. It protects them so that they are able to enter into the presence of the Holy. But God, alone, provides the means. Thank you, again, Emmaus, for your comments. |
