DAVEH: Then why do you think those early Christians who practiced proxy baptism were doing it? Do you think they believed was simply a *REPRESENTATION*? Or do you suppose they thought it might have more significance than simply being a "*LIKENESS*".
Dave, you are making an assumption here that is not biblically supported! Paul never identified "they" which are baptized for the dead as Christians!

While baptism is certainly symbolic, do you think it may also represent a covenant?
BTW......Do you think a man of faith can be saved IF he does not repent?
