Q: What would you do?

A: Now, if you are a pastor or a preacher, or maybe just a Christian that believes it is essential that someone receives water baptism, the baptism of John, what would you do if someone calls you half way around the world and shows a desire to be baptized?

Do you request that the person comes to your town and your church to be baptized?

Do you tell that person to find someone, anyone, to perform the baptismal ritual?

Do you leave your congregation, travel many miles, maybe to another country, and go and baptize that person?

What if that person cannot wait? Cannot move? What if the country is isolated and won't let you in?

Will you say: 'sorry, you are going to hell - without water baptism you are doomed'?

Or will, as you should, ask that person to pray the sinner's prayer and accept Jesus Christ?

I believe, if you are a true shepherd, even if you are not a pastor, a priest or preacher, you will relieve that person from a pure religious ritual and grant her the truth of God's Word as laid in the following Bible passages:

Is it by faith or by works that we are saved?

How about Acts
