baptism
Posted: Mon Jul 25, 2005 7:15 pm
A father and a mother had made arrangements with the pastor to have their
three boys, aged 9, 10 and 11 baptized.
So, after weeks of suitable instruction one bright Sunday morning they were
on their way to church where the boys would have their sins washed away.
The 9-year-old was particularly pensive that morning and when the mother
asked him what he was thinking about, his reply was in the form of a
question: "Mom, I want to go first when we are baptized."
"Why?"
"Because, I don't want to be baptized in water that has all of my brother's
sins floating around in it."
