Define Baptism
<{POST_SNAPBACK}>
Not a chance Joel.....not interested in debating that. I'm just wondering who's not been baptized in this thread 'cuz it seems some are arguing over something here that could make some folks question their salvation.....what does Paul say about that ?
1 Timothy 1:23
23 Don't have anything to do with foolish and stupid arguments, because you know they produce quarrels.
24 And the Lord's servant must not quarrel; instead, he must be kind to everyone, able to teach, not resentful.
Titus 3:9
9 But avoid foolish controversies and genealogies and arguments and quarrels about the law, because these are unprofitable and useless.
And before anyone twists my thoughts into saying that I think this topic is stupid or foolish, don't bother You know that's not what I mean I guess what I'm trying to say is if anyone here has not been baptized, I'd encourage them to get themselves baptized....and for those of us who have been baptized, I'd ask "why are we arguing over whether or not it saves you" ? I've already stated my position on that a few pages back and I loathe redundancy...so, I'll not expound on my position further....I'm just wondering "why the argument" is all ( and I'm aware this is a discussion board and that's the nature of such....to discuss. I'm looking at it from a Biblical point of view of arguing over things such as this ).
God bless,
Bob
