Re: Change After Water Baptism?
Yes, I felt the same things you did, clean on the INSIDE. I also felt intoxicated as I walked from the place I was baptized. While under the water I felt a peace, so much so that I didn't want to come up out of the water! I was probably under the water longer than most because I was baptized in a bathtub and they wanted to make sure I was totally under (some of my clothing had air pockets which they pushed out to make sure I was under, LOL) And just like you I had believed and repented but hadn't yet recieved the Holy Spirit. And probably not like you, I was baptized in Jesus name and the titles by a Baptist minister.
