And yours. You don’t seem willing to share the answer to a very important question. Yet you practice something and attack others who may not, with no concrete answer as to why you believe what you believe. This should be water baptism 101 to anyone as informed as you appear to be. I’ll wait for your answer. You may just change my mind, it you present enough scripture to persuade me that it is necessary in this present dispensation. The ball in is your court. Scripture is what I’m looking for here. Not tradition or doctrines of men. It ‘s there, in scripture.

I said I would once you answer the question I asked.

Yet you practice something and attack others who may not, with no concrete answer as to why you believe what you believe.

Show the post where I "attacked". Hint: Asking a question is not an attack. Pointing out a practice (actually lack of a practice) that is out of the mainstream of Protestant Christianity is not an attack

I’ll wait for your answer. You may just change my mind, it you present enough scripture to persuade me that it is necessary in this present dispensation.

I am going to make an assumption about your belief, based on this last sentence. You do not believe, as to the vast majority of Protestant Christians do believe, that baptism in water is a normal part of a normal Christian life.

Again, it makes no difference to me. I am frying a different fish - that being the different conclusions that sola believers come to from the same baseline. I have used the question of baptism simply as an example of this fact.

Now, I rest my case. Thanks.
