You are saying that you believe in baptism for believers but I don't understand that as anyone has to believe first before they would even be thinking about baptism.
You hear the word, think it over and believe it or not. Then you decide - yes, I believe Jesus is the Son of God and he died for me. Then - if you believe - you want to know what you are to do be saved, so - you see repent of your sins and be baptised for the remission of those sins and you will be saved. (You are already in the belief and acceptance stage).
We are also told that in baptism we are buried with Christ and we arise a new person free of all past sins and we then have the gift of the Holy Spirit living in us.
Seems like splitting hairs to me. And, the Baptists claim they are saved by faith - but, that faith is not expressed by faithfully following the verses in the Bible that say repent and be baptised. So, where is the faith?
Just discussing here - no offense.
No offense taken. :-)
