Miss Interpretation meet Miss Full Court.
Really FC, I had hoped better from you. A internet preacher? Please. Instead of you giving my your thoughts and beliefs on this passage, you had to resort to someone else.
Shoot, this guy would make Chubby Checker proud. He can twist and turn with the best of them.
I don't have the time right now, but I will be back later to give you my thoughts on this utterly amazing mischaracterization of I Peter 3:21. I don't blame you though...you just searched on the net until you found something that would refute me. That's fine. You still obviously agree with me since you stated someone else's position and not your own. You have had over 24 hours to find this one...I just would have thought you would have come up with something better. I guess I just had too high an expectation for you.
That is totally untrue. I actually have a friend who has written for Foundation Magazine.
I just believe that he says it best.
Besides, Romans totally refutes your claim that your dead work of baptism is what bought salvation.
If you are trusting the local water company, you are not saved anyway.
