Mike, God has given you a good mind for this, but if you cannot explain this in such a way that other people can say “Yeah, that’s clear enough” then you are not using the gift God has given you in the most effective way. And worse, you not really be using the gift at all b/c you would essentially be speaking another language, the like of one that nobody understands yet. What makes Jordan such a powerful teacher is that he is clear, where you are very very vague and obscure.

Please take this in the most charitable way possible. I want to understand you, and perhaps your baptism arguments might be more powerful and persuasive if you explained things in more detail.
