I really wish that I could talk with Turrtuliam. I just got done listening to his book on Baptism and have a few questions that since I can’t ask him I would like to hear someone else’s perspective. He clearly thinks we should delay baptism (which is often quoted by adult-baptizes) but he also says that it should also be delayed for the unmarried or widows until they are married or are taught self control (I’m paraphrasing) Yet he clearly believes that baptism saves us and washes away our sins. If that is the case why would he believe that we should delay baptism? So that we don’t sin afterwards? Then to make it even more confusing he ends his epistle saying that we should pray for the sinner Turtulliam. As if he himself hasn’t abstained perfection after his baptism. Again I’m thoroughly confused. If baptism saves us why would we delay it even to infants, why wait until they are older and married? What if they die in the meantime? And why does he allude that there is no forgiveness of sins after baptism (except in his mind the baptism of blood) and then he ends saying he’s a sinner? I would like someone to explain it to me. And btw I’m not trying to attack him I’m just trying to understand him and if we can ethically quote from him. Thanks Steven
