Greetings! I'm new to the forum arena but have enjoyed the discussions (yes, I was a lurker, but I'm out of the shadows, now.) I have a question that is currently a pressing matter in my life. First I should give a brief background. I am the son of a Quaker minister(Evangelical Friends) who married the granddaughter of a Southern Baptist minister. We found home in the reformed theology of the PCA but didn't join because we moved out of state. We've attended a Reformed Episcopal church (loved the tradition, liturgy, and the reverence and worship of God Almighty) where I was baptized as an adult.(Quakers don't baptize...as I'm sure you all know.) We have now been teaching in a parochial school of the Anglican Church for the past year but don't attend the very high-Anglican church because we don't agree with their views on the ordinances of the Lord's Supper and baptism. (The REC church we attended was fairly low-church.) We have been attending a Southern Baptist Church and I'm prayerfully considering the ministry as a calling.(I'm going to a preview conference at Southern Baptist Theological Seminary in October.) We would like to join the Southern Baptist Church but from the SBC's statement of beliefs, I gather they won't accept my Episcopal baptism(pouring) as a valid baptism. While I accepted Christ as a child, I made my profession of faith as an adult with my baptism. If I am baptized again, I feel like I would be saying that my Episcopal baptism was a sham. What are y'alls opinions on the matter. Any comments or advice is greatly appreciated. Brandon
