Title: Acts Speaks Out
Post by: WillGreek on March 09, 2004, 11:01:14 AM
Juice of the orange = Orange juice. Baptism of repentance = Repentance baptism. Baptism of John = John's baptism. Baptism of water = Water baptism. John did not baptize those who came to him from the Pharisees.
Why? If it was "water baptism" they could get just as wet and anyone. Can you answer why John did not baptize those of the Pharisees? The book of Acts speaks!
