Buried By Baptism (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781621718338)

INTRODUCTION

The question naturally arises, "What is the thing buried?" The Bible is its own dictionary, leaving us without excuse. Lord give us the submissive humility of Ii ttle Samuel w horn Thou didst call to the prophetic office in his infancy and he meekly re-sponded, "Speak Lord, for Thy servant heareth." V-l e all came into this world ignorant as pigs and puppies; knowing nothing at all except Thou didst teach us. By this wonderful Word we are saved, sanctified, fed, panoplied, have the victory and will be judged in the great day. It is silly and foolish in us to study the Bible from a creedistical standpoint; as we are all hastening to the bar of God where we will be judged by the Bible alone. Therefore we should be dead to every clamor of human voice. Between us and the inspired Biblical authors, inter-venes a period of eighteen hundred years, one thou-sand years of which is a black night with nothing but sacerdotalism, superstition, ignorance and priest-craft; during which the priest that could invent the most ceremonies, was considered the smartest. In view of this fact, this long dismal night intervening between us and the Apostolic Age, should be an ample admonition to us all to leap over the inter-vening chasm on the wings of triumphant faith, light down amid the effulgent blaze of pure and un-adulterated inspired truth and shout the praises of God for His unutterable goodness, thus perfectly fortifying us against all the superstitious innovations of sacerdotalism and permitting us to stand face to face with our blessed heavenly Father on the sure foundation of His infallible Word and hear Him speak, as he did to Moses on Mt. Sinai. when He revealed His truth and Moses wrote it on- tables of stone. Then let the battle cry ring around the world, "Back to the Bible.
