To: Dr. Eckleburg
The Jews didn't question God's call for circumcision. Why should we refuse to acknowledge the circumcision of the heart, as God both commands and performs?
You're referring to Col. 2:1112 where Paul points out how baptism is related to circumcision (which was normally done on infants for infants of those already Jews and done on adult converts)
So, then you acknowledge that Baptism, namely "circumcision of the heart" and it saves?
To: Cronos
So, then you acknowledge that Baptism, namely "circumcision of the heart" and it saves? The sacrament of Baptism does not save. The free, merciful grace God shows His children saves them which is illustrated and affirmed in the act of baptizing our children.
