    baptism is not replacement for circumcision.
    it is a sign of Christ death and resurrection (SEE ROMANS 6 BELOW).

    Romans 6
    1 What shall we say then? Shall we continue in sin, that grace may abound? 2 God forbid. How shall we, that are dead to sin, live any longer therein? 3 Know ye not, that so many of us as were baptized into Jesus Christ were baptized into his death? 4 Therefore we are buried with him by baptism into death: that like as Christ was raised up from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life. 5 For if we have been planted together in the likeness of his death, we shall be also in the likeness of his resurrection:

    In Romans 2 - at the end of the chapter - we see the spiritual application of circumcision - and it is not Baptism.

    In Christ,

    Now see there? We can agree on something.

    (And of course I also agree that Mark 7 is very applicable not only to the commandments as Christ used it - but also to the changes that have been made to baptism by the traditions of men)

    In Christ,

    Bob

    Thanks, guys, I hear these kinds of interpretations and never quite knew what to do with them.
