VII. Baptism and the Lord's Supper
Christian baptism is the immersion of a believer in water in the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. It is an act of obedience symbolizing the believer's faith in a crucified, buried, and risen Saviour, the believer's death to sin, the burial of the old life, and the resurrection to walk in newness of life in Christ Jesus. It is a testimony to his faith in the final resurrection of the dead. Being a church ordinance, it is prerequisite to the privileges of church membership and to the Lord's Supper.
The Lord's Supper is a symbolic act of obedience whereby members of the church, through partaking of the bread and the fruit of the vine, memorialize the death of the Redeemer and anticipate His second coming.

Bill,
I now live In Franklin Co. 'on the mountain' as I like to refer to it.
I haven't noticed and Tibetan monks around lately. But have seen quite a few rattlesnakes.

Also, I enjoy reading other peoples ideas and the reason they believe like they do.
All that being said, my fingers are tired from all this typing since I rarely type but the bare number of words I can get by with.
As for the cute little political remark, I haven't decided if I'm going to run for the mayor of Cherokee yet.
I'm going to leave that up to semi, maybe we can form an committee against COBRA.

1. The Word of God
We believe that the Bible is the Word of God, fully inspired and without error in the original manuscripts, written under the inspiration of the Holy Spirit, and that it has supreme authority in all matters of faith and conduct.
9. The Ordinances
We believe that the Lord Jesus Christ has committed two ordinances to the local church: baptism and the Lord's Supper. We believe that Christian baptism is the immersion of a believer in water into the name of the triune God. We believe that the Lord's Supper was instituted by Christ for commemoration of His death. We believe that these two ordinances should be observed and administered until the return of the Lord Jesus Christ.
Seems that your conference will only state 'inerrant' in the original manuscripts and that baptism involves water. Which is how many of those on here feel. Do you disagree with this conference as well?

You are a very lucky man; I have to sign contracts with just about everything I use day to day. ex: satellite service is for 2 yrs... my home owners contract is for 15 yrs. If I don't fulfill my contract then I will be sued!
Your really a lucky individual; No court in this country would prosecute a person for not fulfilling their contract with Jesus.
You are truly a lucky and good human.. I have always heard and actually believe that the Lord will provide; from now on.. I am going to let Jesus sign my contracts for insurance and etc.

Right there Bill. Did you read the question?
The Bible is inerrant only in the original manuscripts and baptism is by water and necessary. Do you agree? Yes or no?

So you don't think an ordinance from Jesus should be followed? Why have it if it not necessary for salvation?
