Why then should we be baptized?>>>>>>>
Let me say at the start that despite my Southern Baptist origins, I do NOT Believe in hell! Having said that, it should be obvious to those who do believe in it that salvation cannot be gained by immersion in water, sprinkling or whatever, all that is merely a symbolic act. You could be baptized into the society of drunken fools, would that save you? Submitting to Baptism is a symbol to show the world that you have accepted Jesus Christ as saviour, what if you submit to baptism only as a means to ingratiate yourself with people in the church who can help you in your business? Would that save you?
