Hey everyone, I kinda weenied out of the blog for the last week. Some major things are going on in my life, and they really have me distracted. But I'm not going into that. But also, I felt weird because of the posts for prayer for Mrs. SanGiovanni. It kinda felt like my thoughts or updates paled in importance to her need for prayer. Anywhooo!
Hey, when should people be baptized? Should it be soon after, directly after someone prays the sinners prayer? Should it be after they have belonged, believed and behaved like a Christian? When should this religious rite be used, when is its symbolism most effective in 21st Century Spiritual Formation?

My 2 cents = It should be as soon after a salvation decision as is practical given the valuable illustration/mental picture of crucifying the old and arising new in Christ. It should not be forced but encouraged.
