OK, AB, I do not mean to play the part of an inquisitor, but, when you say, "I now baptize you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins," what does "remission of sins" mean to you? Does it mean the person's sins get remitted or forgiven when you baptize them? or does it mean the person's sins have been previously remitted or forgiven so you are now baptizing them because their sins have been forgiven/remitted?
