a completely underdeveloped theme in terms of reforming council - I would say council at all - is the connection between the Gospel and baptism. Not that the baptism in many communities and churches are not anywhere has its place. Taufseminare be offered once a year and baptisms held on a beautiful lake or river. But it seems to me that baptism is somehow slipped back. As we can see in Acts, is baptized at each conversion event immediately (Acts 2:38, 8, 13 36, 9, 18, 10, 47, 16.15, 16, 33, 18, 8, 19, 5) . The Great Commission is, among other things, a yes baptize (Mark 16:16; 28.19 Mt). Therefore we can assume that baptism has been part of Evangliumsverkündigung. Since the baptism took place immediately after the conversion, the apostles and evangelists in their versions of the Gospel spoken clearly about the meaning of baptism.
This fact invites us to question our own preaching. Let's baptism as a central theme in non-Christians?
also could use the opportunity that many baptized people who have no respect for the Church to respond to their own baptism, the sign of the covenant, the responsibility to is connected, the promises, but also the threat that was made to Federal offenders.
