For my part, I have always wondered how any one can fail to see that there are so many improbabilities of immersion in every case of baptism, in the New Testament, as to counteract any weight which the word baptize carries with it, more especially since the word and its derivatives are employed, in the New Testament, in cases where the mode of using the water is evidently not intended.
_Mr.K._ "Buried with him in baptism." Mr.M., you will confess that this is an impregnable proof-text.

You have never been "buried with him in baptism." _Mr.M._ But I am "risen with him," Mr.K.With all humility and tears, I must say to you, "If any man trusteth to himself that he is Christ's, let him also think this with himself, that as he is Christ's even so also we are Christ's." Your application of the passage, just quoted by you, disproves your interpretation of it.

If we must be buried in water, when we are baptized, then no one is risen with Christ who has not been immersed.

You thus disfranchise four fifths, to say the least, of God's elect.

No, my dear sir, being buried with Christ in baptism does not mean immersion.
