I have no problem with that.
Can you can agree that since the Bible teaches that baptism is for the remission of sins, then it is for the remission of sins?
The how do you act to merit it?
If mercy is getting what YOU DO NOT DESERVE , how does that line up with needing to do something to deserve it?
One can not receive mercy , until one is judged guilty, otherwise it is not mercy correct?
The bible says that 1 time ... I believe it was an error on the part of a very fallible peter... who never again taught it
Mar 1:4 John did baptize in the wilderness, and preach the baptism of repentance for the remission of sins. .... Before the cross..
