Ern Baxter on Baptism in Water

"Baptism is linked with repentance (Acts 2:38); "Repent and be baptised". Someone may ask "Can't I repent without being baptised?". Why would you want to? If repent means changing one's mind and wholly agreeing with God on everything and God's Word says "Be baptised" - why would the question even be raised?".

Ern Baxter in "Repentance" from "Vintage Years - Selected Articles from New Wine's First Decade: 1969-1979" - New Wine Publishers, Mobile, Alabama - (p25).
