Introduction
Mathew 15:9 KJV
But in vain they do worship me, teaching for doctrines the commandments of men.
The above statement from our Lord Jesus Christ is my key verse as we seek a scriptural answer to most of the major questions regarding water baptism. There is so much division in the body of Christ because of doctrines related to water baptism. What’s unfortunate is that most of these divisions are based on commandments and rules which were created by well meaning and passionate men, but not of God.
