Subject: What "norms" can we disregard? |
Bible Note: Disciplerami: 'Twasn't the mode of which I was speaking but the placing of an unscriptural definition upon baptism, attaching to it a role that it does not play in salvation; that is, making it an integral part of salvation, a view that is contrary to the clear scriptural doctrine of salvation by grace through faith in Christ. Now, being a Baptist, I shan't quarrel with you on the accepted mode of baptism, i.e., by immersion, and neither on the issue of infant baptism, since firmly do I believe that truly scriptural baptism is reserved for believers, which of course excludes infants since they have not attained the capacity to believe. --Hank |
