Our second session on baptism offered a slightly different focus- Stephen Cherry (the leg-end that he is) reflected on our responsibilities as baptised people, what happens after the baptism. Reflecting back on my last post- this could have some impact on infant baptism and the importance (or not) of it. Stephen suggests that out baptism doesn't just end at the giving of the candle, but really starts. We can view our baptism as a sending out, or commissioning if you will, a commission from God to serve him and help to build up his kingdom.
As baptised people what are our moral obligations?
