AMPLIFIED 2015 | Ephesians 5:26 so that He might sanctify the church, having cleansed her by the washing of water with the word [of God], |
Subject: What is this "washing?" |
Bible Note: Greetings Searcher - so to expound upon your analogy, upon faith in Jesus Christ, one is washed or regernerated by the Holy Spirit FIRST and then gets into the baptismal tub clean? (!) For what its worth, I believe that physical baptism is an act of obedience on the part of a believer to testify, by an outward expression, to a present inward reality. The mystery of God as revealed in Jesus is enough for me to contemplate. I have no desire to try to convince others to agree with my position on baptism, but these posts sure make for some interesting reading. mommapbs |
