Bible Note: Kin, if it is indeed your view that your question about baptism being an "outward sign" has never been answered and can never be answered scripturally, then why, may I ask, don't you drop the issue? Why persist in asking it over and over, to your own detriment and to the detriment and best interests of this forum? You would be wise, in my considered opinion, to move forward to something else. It's perfectly obvious that you have answered the question to your own personal satisfaction according to your personal belief on the issue, and it is equally obvious that you have not be successful in swaying any of the other correspondents on the forum to your own private interpretation of what the Bible teaches about baptism. --Hank |
