Musick-al note # 232
There are a great many preachers and teachers who offer a great many words in regard to explain their doctrines when asked about becoming a Christian. Most of their words are given in regard to becoming a member of their particular religious group without any thought of baptism. Yet its importance is revealed so I urge you to study these words carefully.
