Bible Note: Greeting Nolan! What you are saying is that baptism in water has nothing to do with salvation or baptism in the Holy Spirit or for that matter circumcision of the heart. You believe that when you first "believe" with your mind or in your heart that you are a "sinner" and that Jesus is the Son of God that has been sent to save you, you are "born again" and filled with the Holy Spirit and your heart is spiritually circumcised . This is when you recieve salvation. You believe that baptism in water is at a later time commanded for those who believe. Am I hearing you correctly? |
