If now some know-it-alls object and say, “Well, even if somebody is not
baptized with outward water, he can still believe, change and improve
his life, and live according to the Rule of Christ. Therefore, baptism
is not necessary.” Answer: You highly learned people should have made
this objection not to me but to Christ himself, and that before he
instituted baptism, so that he could have refrained from it. But at
that time you were not his counselors. I realize it was a great
oversight.
