Inappropriate Rebaptism —On the basis of biblical teaching and - TopicsExpress



          

Inappropriate Rebaptism —On the basis of biblical teaching and the guidance of Ellen G. White, rebaptism should occur only in special circumstances and should be relatively rare. To administer it repeatedly, or on an emotional basis, lessens the meaning of baptism and represents a misunderstanding of the gravity and significance which Scripture assigns to it. A church member whose spiritual experience has become cold needs a spirit of repentance which leads to revival and reformation. This experience will be followed by participation in the ordinance of foot- washing and the Lord’s Supper to signify renewed cleansing and fellowship in the body of Christ. Therefore, rebaptism is not necessary. [44 CHURCH MANUAL]
