If we must do everything EXACTLY as Christ did it, why do Baptists use "shooter glasses" in their Lord's Supper instead of passing around ONE "cup" as Christ did? The Baptist insistence on strict adherence to the ritual of Baptism is a violation of the New Covenant. We are no longer bound by ritual, but by the work of the Holy Spirit in the hearts and souls of men.<br /><br />The mode of Baptism is not what matters. What matters is the convert's submission to God's command to be baptized, and God's response in and to this act.<br /><br />http://www.lutherwasnotbornagain.com/2013/09/baptism-are-baptists-more-ritualistic.html<br />Garyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02519721717265344702noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8425056644549146833.post-48872999633814087762009-04-27T16:50:00.000-05:002009-04-27T16:50:00.000-05:00Jim Linderman is not only a good friend of mine bu...Jim Linderman is not only a good friend of mine but also a collector<br />with a great eye. He is always finding great things. This book is<br />a natural progression for him. By<br />publishing this book, he shares with us his unique vision and love of baptism photographs and music. He is the only person I know that has been collecting this unique body of work.

Over the years we became great friends and David and I always enjoyed visiting him when we were in New York. We miss seeing him now that he is in his home state of Michigan. We have never lost contact all these years and still communicate often by email and phone. He is a true and genuine friend and we love him as family. We are so proud of him and his book. It is sure to be a must have! A great review! Can't wait to get the book.
