If what mid acts dispensationalists are correct in their statement, that Paul the apostle taught believers in his day that water baptism was totally unnecessary, then clearly we would find historic records of some churches in the 2nd century after Paul's death that didn't practice water baptism. But we can find NONE!. All the churches in both the West and the West practiced water baptism for believers. Phillip Shaff's "History of the Christian Church" proves this abundantly. There simply is NO historic record of any local Christin churches in the first three centuries who didn't baptize believers. How does one then maintain that Paul did indeed teach believers that water baptism was unnecessary? |
