If it is for conscience sake, I would tell you to go ahead with it. If it will give you more peace, it is a good thing.

I have been wondering where you have been.
Issue of conscience? If it would have made you feel better...why didn't you pursue what your gut was telling you? Oh, well, who am I to say?

It has never been something that has robbed me of any peace; however, it has been a subject that I just can't seem to get out of my head.

If baptism was an act of obedience to God's word and I felt that God wanted me to be baptized again, who would baptize me? As far a I can gather, my church doesn't do any re-baptizing for backsliders. I just would like to have this matter resolved once and for all...
