Why would you write this:   I think John's point is that in the Bible, people did not invite the Lord
into their lives through saying "the sinner's prayer."  Rather, they were
led into the waters of baptism rather than into saying a prayer

I think John's point is that in the Bible, people did not invite the Lord 
into their lives through saying "the sinner's prayer."  Rather, they were 
led into the waters of baptism rather than into saying a prayer.  Do you 
recognize this Izzy?

The sinner's prayer is not a Biblical way of leading people to faith in 
Christ and the experience of being born again.  If anyone accepts this 
method as valid, it is not because they learned it directly from the Bible. 
Do you agree?

Peace be with you.
