    baptism for salvation?

    5-week-old born again baby

    Hi everyone! Mark1616 is just one of my favorite verses, not my actual name. My name is Josh, and I live in Oklahoma. My old self is 36 years old, and my new self is only 5 weeks old! I've been a believer for a few years now, but I wasn't yet saved. On Saturday, December 14, 2013 (because I was...
