| Baptism and Assurance
Can someone help me here? I really do not see how one can look to one's baptism for assurance of salvation. I've heard that mentioned here and don't quite see it. After all, one doesn't know whether soneone is saved or not when he/she is baptized, (even if that person makes a profession one can't know it's real). If you are looking back at a promise, a fake Christian can look back at the same event and set of Scriptures. I realize baptism is a sign of trust, whether in an adult convert or a parent having his child baptized, but how can it provide assurance...? Thoughts?
