Nope. It's only the shedding of blood that cleanses us from sin. Getting wet doesn't do that.

So when the Bible says baptism for the remission of sins by Jesus, Paul and Peter, it really doesn't say it, in the same way that some people say that Jesus really didn't have anything to do with true, alcoholic wine.

Is it simply pride that keeps self-decribed Christians away from the true Faith?

Just curious. Where in Scripture does Paul talk about water baptism for remission of sins?

Just curious again. When does Jesus talk about baptism for the remission of sins? When does Peter talk about baptism for the remission of sins? It’s a very important question. And one that may open your eyes. And don’t forget my earlier post: when did Paul talk about baptism for the remission of sins?
