There is a problem with this guy in that he purports to teach what the scripture teaches, but yet doesn't believe water baptism to be necessary. He is one of the "Faith Only" believers, who think one is simply getting wet when they are baptized. The Bible makes it plain in Mark 16:16 what is going to happen to people who refuse to DO what God has commanded. Baptism is just as important as belief, repentence, and forgiving. If you throw out baptism, you also have to throw out repentence, for that is a "work" as well. It is sad that there are so many of the "holy-roller" types floating around and not enough of the "thus saith the Lord" believers, who actually OBEY him. I better alternative I think (one visit to the forum at your guys site told me what kind of people frequent there) is www.theologyonline.com.

And no, I'm not Catholic. Just a Christian, no more and no less. I prefer the "speak where the Bible speaks and be silent where it is silent" way of living the Christian life.

Baptism is not a requirement for salvation.
