What would you say if someone's faith never produced water baptism? i.e., the person never got baptized, even when presented with it?

Sort of like asking, what if Abraham refused to be circumcised?

You see? We must keep going back to this question. It must be answered.

In all my years of ministry, I've never heard of this.

If someone wasn't baptized it was out of ignorance not disobedience.

If this were a true hypothetical, I'd question if their faith was truly in Jesus. Or ask what sort of childhood phobia they have with being dunked in water.
