In other words, Paul's very use of "they" would exclude him in the group of those baptized for Jesus.
Words mean things. This is why most on TOL say it doesn't mean what it says, or worse, you need a pope to tell you what it really means.

First of all Paul wasn't at his home, he was at the house of Judas on Straight Street, and basic history tells you when bath tubs came into effect.
Your question in response to his joking just shows why you misunderstand the passages you do - you take one thing to mean something else.
You need to think about this a bit - Tetelestai has this same problem; which is why he recurrently turns one statement into all these screwed up ideas about what basis Mid-Acts is asserting what it is asserting.
Where did you ever get that Paul was in his own home?
Their were people who did have baths in their homes. The poor used public baths, but not all were poor.
Just because you say so does not make it true.
Remember that when you do the same thing in your posts teapot.
I didn't, you made an assertion.
He was in a ROOM, not a home, apparently you read into scripture what you want, but if your so sure there was a bath in that room then prove it.
I suggest you LEARN about communal bathing in first century Damascus before asking such inane questions and NOT addressing those legitimate ones posted at you.
Just because you say so does not make it true.
I prove all my beliefs with scripture.
I do not know how you think Paul was in his own home. No scripture says that.
Are you actually or deliberately being obtuse?
So did Satan.I prove all my beliefs with scripture.
Those scriptures do not nullify the scriptures I gave.Paul taught what Jesus taught. Paul did not start a New Covenant. Jesus taught the guidelines to a New Covenant.
Romans 11:27
For this is my covenant unto them, when I shall take away their sins.
1 Corinthians 11:25
In the same way, after supper he took the cup, saying, “This cup is the new covenant in my blood; do this, whenever you drink it, in remembrance of me.”
2 Corinthians 2:12
[ Ministers of the New Covenant ] Now when I went to Troas to preach the gospel of Christ and found that the Lord had opened a door for me,
2 Corinthians 3:6
He has made us competent as ministers of a new covenant—not of the letter but of the Spirit; for the letter kills, but the Spirit gives life.
2 Corinthians 3:7
[ The Greater Glory of the New Covenant ] Now if the ministry that brought death, which was engraved in letters on stone, came with glory, so that the Israelites could not look steadily at the face of Moses because of its glory, transitory though it was,
Galatians 3:15
[ The Law and the Promise ] Brothers and sisters, let me take an example from everyday life. Just as no one can set aside or add to a human covenant that has been duly established, so it is in this case.
Galatians 3:17
What I mean is this: The law, introduced 430 years later, does not set aside the covenant previously established by God and thus do away with the promise.
Galatians 4:24
These things are being taken figuratively: The women represent two covenants. One covenant is from Mount Sinai and bears children who are to be slaves: This is Hagar.
You are merely acting as a mocker.Danoh, STP, Stan, and Tambora, why do you fight me just for saying to obey Jesus?
Satan does not teach that Tambora.

Danoh, STP, Stan, and Tambora, why do you fight me just for saying to obey Jesus?
Satan does not teach that Tambora.
Its very simple: you insist on the need to obey Jesus' Words in Matthew, Mark, Luke and John, as if they were to the Body. They are not.
