but in virute of his own mercy, by the washing of regeneration and renewal in the Holy Spirit. unless you are infallible, why do you oppose what the Church has taught unanimously for 1,500 years on baptismal regneration?

Washing does not mean water just as baptize does not mean water...Look 'em up in a dictionary...Any dictionary...

Rev 1:5 And from Jesus Christ, who is the faithful witness, and the first begotten of the dead, and the prince of the kings of the earth. Unto him that loved us, and washed us from our sins in his own blood,

We are washed in the blood, NOT water...We are cleansed by the blood, not water...We are regenerated by the indwelling of the Holy Spirit, not the sprinkling of water...

Peter agrees with Paul, he wrote in 1 Peter 3:21 “baptism, which corresponds to this, now saves you, not as the removal of dirt from the body, but as an appeal to God for a clear conscience, through the resurrection of Jesus Christ”
i am tempted to ask you if anything could be clearer,

No, it couldn't be clearer (more clear)...

1Pe 3:21 The like figure whereunto even baptism doth also now save us (not water but baptism...Baptism does not mean water),
(not the putting away of the filth of the flesh (because there is no water involved to clean the filth off the flesh), but the answer of a good conscience toward God,)(that is, repentance; turning to Jesus and believing in Jesus), by the resurrection of Jesus Christ:

There's no water involved...It's a figure of water baptism as the verse states...It couldn't be clearer...

Iscool : Washing does not mean water just as baptize does not mean water

This is the same logic by which people deny Christ's words. "Who ever read in the Scriptures, that my body is the same as the sign of my body? or, that is is the same as it signifies? "
