So if you're to bring up the "washing" part of that sentence, you must also deal with the "regeneration" part of that sentence. Regeneration is a function of the Holy Spirit. Titus 3:5 is talking about how the Spirit regenerates and renews. Certainly you are not a baptismal regenerist are you?

Also, regarding the Ephesians passage, are you suggesting that water baptism sanctifies us?
Amen. The UPCI's official stance is that water baptism is not associated with regeneration.
