Baptist History by Baptists 3. The Day of Pentecost metaphorically described as baptism.

The Lord church that He had Founded and had been with, Personally, until His Ascention, was baptized with the Holy Spirit on The Day of Pentecost, as we see metaphorically described by God's Word, as a 'baptism'.

"He shall baptize you with The Holy Spirit..."


From Ron Crisp;

"Baptists are the only people, who to any extent, have taken interest in preserving and publishing records of accounts of Scriptural baptism.

" This seems odd considering they have never viewed baptism as a sacrament, channel of grace or promise of future grace...

" Other denominations do not emulate the New Testament writers by producing any real record of individual baptisms.

"This essay and the examples that follow will help clarify the importance of believer's baptism."
