Good morning Pilgrim, man you get up early.
I am heading to work, so want have time to reply.

Still waiting for faith only. I see where Abraham believed, but it doesn't say faith only. Romans 3:27 talks about the "Law of faith" and that no boasting is found in that law. Baptism is part of the law of faith. Col2 and Gal3:26-27.

Anyways have to go...will expand on this and works later....of course I know we need you for you have to tell us what Jesus or whoever "meant" to say. Like Mark16....Jesus meant to say....he that believes is saved and can be baptized if hr wants" I would have missed that.
