Re: The Remission is Different from Forgiveness My
In Barna's/Viola's latest book Pagan Christianity, they have a chapter on Baptism/Communion and how far we are removed in practice and beliefs regarding conversion/baptism.
I think they tackle the whole sinner's prayer thing by stating and to my satisfaction that in the NT Culture/Practice that one was converted by being baptized and at baptism only then was one considered converted. That faith/repentance/conversion/baptism were son intertwined you couldn't seperate them.
