Nope... Paul NEVER writes to the body of Christ that we should get wet.
Acts 19:4-5 says..."Then said Paul, John verily baptized with the baptism of repentance, saying unto the people, that they should believe on him which should come after him, that is, on Christ Jesus.
5 When they heard this, they were baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus."
So he does indeed tell men to "get wet".
Christ cleansed me by His blood. That's the only cleaning that I need.
Me too, unless further sin shows I had not really repented of sin.
We can't build a relationship with God that is based on our lies.
No water ceremony for the body of Christ. Paul says that there is ONE baptism and it's NOT water.
There is only one baptism God does, but men do another.
That doesn't even take into account the other 5 or 6 baptisms listed in the bible.
I agree, a dead man can't commit sin.
What we fail to agree on is that our (water) baptism into Christ provides our death, burial, and being raised with Christ to walk in newness of life. (Rom 6:3-7)
The crucified man, with his affections and lusts, cannot rise again. (Gal 5:24)
You need the reread Romans.
I am no longer a sinner, thanks to the grace of God who supplied the doctrine of baptism in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of past sins.
Why didn't your doctrine provide the same grace?
