If baptism is one of the steps of the 3 step plan of salvation why did Christ not send Paul to do it?
1 Corinthians 1:14* ¶
I thank God that I baptized none of you, but Crispus and Gaius;
15* Lest any should say that I had baptized in mine own name.
16* And I baptized also the household of Stephanas: besides,
I know not whether I baptized any other.
17* ¶
For Christ sent me not to baptize, but to preach the gospel: not with wisdom of words, lest the cross of Christ should be made of none effect.
Why would Paul be go glad that he baptized so few?
Why didn't he make it as important as many make it today?
Am I wrong, (shouldn't have asked that on AFF), but doesn't it seem strange how Paul talked so nonchalantly about baptism if it is in fact a part of a 3 step plan?
