Then if there was a clear and concise answer to that question it would probably free us of some of the confusion... It kind of makes you wonder why God would not include such an important element in the Bible.
Oh well, I guess it's just the Utopian in me looking for clear and simple answers.
Here is a point I have made over and over: In the bible not once ever did anyone question the purpose of water baptism. Not once did anyone put it off for a little while. Not once did anyone treat it as optional. Not once did Paul mention baptism as a work.....He did mention circumcision of the flesh and keeping the law.

In the bible the immediate response to hearing the gospel was trust, repentance and baptism

Let it be understood that Apostolic Friends Forum is an Apostolic Forum.
Apostolic is defined on AFF as:


  1. There is One God. This one God reveals Himself distinctly as Father, Son and Holy Ghost.
  2. The Son is God himself in a human form or "God manifested in the flesh" (1Tim 3:16)
  3. Every sinner must repent of their sins.
  4. That Jesus name baptism is the only biblical mode of water baptism.
  5. That the Holy Ghost is for today and is received by faith with the initial evidence of speaking in tongues.
  6. The saint will go on to strive to live a holy life, pleasing to God.
