John, thanks for responding. Jesus indeed spoke v. 16, but to whom was
Christ referring when he used "He"?
=====================================================================
My opinion, Perry, without a lot of pondering, based on what I see in
the NKJV. "He" is generic for any saint, any saved person who is walking
the walk, the narrow path that results in salvation for those that
endure to the end. It is in clear contrast to the next "he" in that
verse who will be condemned. I do not know the original word used here
for baptized, but I assume it means believers baptism, immersion in
water in obedience to God's command to show publicly that you have
denied self and will now follow Christ.
Now lay it on us. What has God, the Holy Spirit shown you?
