Stephanos, I can't send you the notes I wanted to share with you. My computer is currently in a computer repair shop. I'm sorry for that. I'll send the notes as soon as the computer is repaired.

[Gord]

Would it be possible to post it, if it's not too large of a file? I too would use it for study.

[Biblestudent]

I'll try to post it here. Thanks!

[stephanos]

Cool, I'd wondered if any others wanted a chance to see this write up as well.

Looking forward to it.

Peace and Love,
Stephen

When John the baptist was baptizing in Jordan, it is quite easy to assume that he was immersing people. The Lord Jesus was baptized in this manner. In Acts ch.8 Philip and the Ethiopian went down into the water. For what purpose? To immerse?
Whether we sprinkle or immerse isn't really the issue. The issue is the baptism that matters at the moment of conversion, the baptism by the Spirit into the body of Christ.
