A Perspective on Baptism

What I offer here is not a theological position, but a perspective on something as old as the earth – baptism. Not a debate on methodology, systematology, or any other long word that ends with “gy”.

While on earth, Jesus lived as a fleshly human being; viz., tempted by the enemy; experiencing hunger and weariness, but yielding to Papa’s life in Him.

The Advent of the Sons of God

Lessons on the Trail

The Pinnacle in Albany Township is in my front yard. That is I have a clear view of it from my front porch. The last time I hiked to the summit pictured here was over 40 years ago. I’ve been staring at its attractive profile for the last three years now.
