Please accept my sincerest gratitude for your detailed history of Baptists in a recent issue [Herald, Jan. 15].
After serving almost 70 years as an ordained Baptist minister, especially the last 30 years with the Roman Baptists (fundamentalists), my experience has taught me that maybe we go all the way back to Abraham and Lot. As Abraham said to Lot, “You go your way, and I will go mine.”
The Baptists who insist on baptism by immersion only must be consistent and recline when they observe the Lord's Supper. As the disciples did recline, that way we Baptists would have a full house.
