Pelathais, without John 3:5 what passages do you rely on to connect water baptism to the new birth? Or maybe you do not and I've misunderstood some of your previous posts. Don't worry, I'll not turn this thread into a baptismal debate. Just curious.

I am not astute enough to battle you gentlemen, so I will just ask my one question.
Given the gospel is the death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus Christ, and given that Romans plainly stated that as we are buried with him in baptism, that we are raised again with him from the dead to live in newness of life, how can anyone take water baptism out of the equation? It is were the old man is put asunder. Until it occurs, we continue to carry around this "body of death".
