I was (am) involved in a discussion over at ‘The Prodigal’s Knot…Untied’ http://prodigalsknots.wordpress.com/ on wether baptism has to be full immersion in water, or if sprinlkling or pouring of water is also effective, and constitutes a proper baptism.
The discussion at one point turned to inmates in prison, who coud not be baptised because there was “no water available”.
I said, “use some saliva if necessary”,… and then we went on from there.
Is full immersion the only biblical definition of baptism and is that the only way a baptism can be a real baptism?
