"What is the probable proportion?"
"Oh, I could not say as to that."
"Do not you and the majority of the others accept of other forms of baptism and in many cases of none at all?"
"Yes."
"Does not that depart from the teachings of the Bible and the example set by Christ Himself?"
"Not necessarily."
"Did not He go down into the waters of baptism and receive immersion at the hands of John the Baptist?"
"Yes."
"And did not the injunction go forth which forms the very corner-stone of His own Church—of Christianity—'Repent and be baptized?'"
"Yes; but He did not say that of necessity all were to be immersed. The Bible is fertile in parables and much that is said is left to the intelligence of the reader for interpretation."
