I'll have to think about what you typed in bold. I have to listen to John preaching a "baptism of repentance" and think about that. They appear to be tied up together. I, obviously, don't know everything, but this seems important as there doesn't seem to be any disconnect with repentance and baptism for the remission of sins as preached in Acts.

My loyalties are only tied up with God and His Word. Been a lot of places, seen a lot of faces, you know how that plays out in the end.
My challenges to OPII were more about his attitude, and his mindless recitation of old time traditions and perpetuation of self-righteous demarcation - i.e. the TRUE apostolics vs. the fake ones, the true truth holders vs. the greasy gracers.

However, I do find it interesting that there are people who will completely ignore plain scripture in a rush to grab a few other scriptures to bolster up their case, and I wonder why we are so afraid of certain scriptures? Why do we have to qualify them by saying "Well, that's not really what it means, or that's not all there is to it".

And, PO, this is not intended to you, I just happened to grab your post to reply to since it's the last in the link......
