Re: [TruthTalk] Baptism 4 dead?

DAVEH:   Ahhhhh......Thank you for your specific answer to my question, Kevin.   I apologize for responding in a parallel post tonight requesting clarification on your answer.      So....you think Paul thought it to be bizarre behavior.  Does it seem strange to you that he would use the bizarre practices of a (presumably) forbidden practice to teach a Christian principle?     You mentioned that it is forbidden as practiced by the LDS.......how/why do you conclude such?     FWIW....I don't know why you consider proxy baptism to be a communion with the dead. Kevin Deegan wrote: Bizzare and unlawful. It was practised by THOSE outside of the faith. It is forbidden as practised by the LDS The Bible is clear NO Communuion with the DEAD!   To change a LDS quote, it should be: The living should NOT hear from the dead Dave <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: DAVEH: Kevin, do you think baptism for the dead struck Paul as bizarre?
