Reference your article Baptism's Place in Conversion:
Nice article...
In the denominational world there is disagreement on what baptism is and its purpose. Many of those arguments are sustained by our own words. Two people can have a discussion on the topic of baptism, be in complete agreement, and at the same time be talking about different things.
Immersion is the only act one can participate in to have their sins removed. It does not make one a Christian. One is a Christian if they follow the instructions of the Christ. It does not save anyone. One is saved based on their life following the removal of their sins. Symbolically immersion may do many things but one actual thing is it results in the removal of one's sins.
Baptism and church are words that mean nothing to anyone and mean anything to everyone. They are words that should be removed from our vocabulary.
Again nice article.
