Brother, I think there are at least TWO or THREE topics (maybe more) that are running like wild horses on this thread.

The topic is "WATER BAPTISM, IS IT FOR TODAY," and I have tried very hard to STAY ON TOPIC for the entire thread. As far as I can tell Chette, you and I are in AGREEMENT that water baptism is for today. As far as what Ruckman believes on WATER BAPTISM, I already posted the link so THERE IS NO GUESS WORK, everyone can see for themselves EXACTLY what Ruckman believes and he clearly believes that WATER BAPTISM IS FOR TODAY. He also considers the ERROR that believer's baptism is "UNSCRIPTURAL" or "JEWISH LAW" to be part of the "FUNDAMENTAL HERESY" of Hyperdispensationalism. Anyone who doubts that can go back and read his entire article which I linked.

As we have seen, there are always going to be VARYING VIEWS on dispensation as it relates to the book of Acts, etc., and that is NEVER gong to be resolved on this thread. Even the Hypers themselves don't all agree on their various views! So, I politely suggest anyone who wants to to "chop chop chop" up the simple Gospel of Jesus Christ into a dozen other gospels, and discuss rabbit trails and "every wind of doctrine" they should go and start a another thread on those things. I hope this reasonable and I rejoice that we can at least agree on the topic at hand. May God bless each of you as you seek His wisdom on this issue...
