I believe that symbols were one way that God communicated with the people before the scriptures were given. Now that we have the written word, we no longer rely on the symbols.

How about baptism and the Lord's Supper?

How about baptism and the Lord's Supper?

My first inclination with baptism is to say that baptism by water is the symbol of baptism by the Holy Ghost. If there are two baptisms, what do we do with Ephesians 4:5. I'm sure that there is an explanation for it, but I just don't know it.

As for the Lord's Supper, I do not see a spiritual parallel. I'll think on it for a while.
