Is it ok to be rebaptised and if yes how many times?
Pastor, Batchelor! On time stamp 46:40 you get into the discussion of what baptism means and how it is performed.
First off, you are committing an etymological fallacy by saying that baptism has to mean a certain thing because that is the meaning of the word 'immerse'! To counter your understanding of the Greek word, 'baptiso, it doesn't imply full immersion, It’s used in scripture to refer to the immersion of "parts" of the body, like the hands and feet when washing, "washing and pouring".
In 46:24 you said, "in the world today there are a lot of counterfeit baptisms". I wonder where you come up with this because the Didache (Teaching of the twelve disciples) proves otherwise when it comes to Sprinkling! Sure, immersion is the most expressive form used today but to call sprinkling a "counterfeit" brings a mockery to what the disciples taught and they were taught by Christ Himself!
Besides, what you are saying is not what scripture teaches about baptism! In fact, scripture does not give instruction for how baptisms are to be carried out! Baptism is something we receive more through sacred tradition (the Didache), which is a first century teaching of the apostles and shows the thinking of the early church. If there was no living water (like a river or a stream), the water is to be poured on the head three times to signify the "Father, Son and Holy Spirit"!
So, to go back to your earlier comment, "how it is said makes no difference" is absolutely not correct! Jeff
