We just don't condemn people to hell if they have not done that yet.
So, you are a Two Stepper?

Close to it! LOL. Our pastor says that to ask "must you be baptized" is the wrong question. The right questions is "why wouldn't you want to be baptized".

"We did not wear uniforms. The lady workers dressed in the current fashions of the day, ...silks...satins...jewels or whatever they happened to possess. They were very smartly turned out, so that they made an impressive appearance on the streets where a large part of our work was conducted in the early years.

"It was not until long after, when former Holiness preachers had become part of us, that strict plainness of dress began to be taught.

"Although Entire Sanctification was preached at the beginning of the Movement, it was from a Wesleyan viewpoint, and had in it very little of the later Holiness Movement characteristics. Nothing was ever said about apparel, for everyone was so taken up with the Lord that mode of dress seemingly never occurred to any of us."

Exactly, and therefore he is a two stepper, probably coming close to hitting number three.
