"Yet I speak of the great apostolic commission to teach all the Gentiles and baptize them with water in the name of the Father, Son, and a Holy Spirit."

Yet you speak of an error that you have manufactured...nowhere does Jesus say "water". And, I am curious which apostle baptized you. And, you must let us know your secret for staying alive for 2000 years.

  1. I assume a certain scriptural and cultural literacy when discussing Messiah and his Jewish Apostles. The Mikva, or water baptism is one of them, accepted by all Orthodox and Protestant denominations. Fundamentalists absolutely believe in water baptism. They are Baptists. Evangelicals believe in water baptism. Now I know you do not believe in water baptism for believers.
  2. This, as well as the Trinity, are known issues among Pentecostals and cause some of them to be labeled as cults.

Poor catechism evidence:

...nowhere does Jesus say "water".
