To invoke one of Vlad's Rules.....the text does not say that Peter and the Apostles baptized them.
But now you've changed your argument.
In your post of 107 you said, "And yet he [Peter] then baptized them."
And before you go ballistic over the brackets as you did on another thread...When writers insert or alter words in a direct quotation, square brackets—[ ]—are placed around the change. The brackets, always used in pairs, enclose words intended to clarify meaning, provide a brief explanation, or to
help integrate the quote into the writer’s sentence. You had to be corrected on that though I doubt you remember it nor would you admit it...another of Vlad's Rules
You see...those are the silly type of word games you play with everyone but don't like it when you're held to your "standard".
But I digress. I do believe Peter and the disciples did baptized them and maybe with some help from the other believers. Who else was there to baptize them?
There were about 120 in the upper on Pentecost. At that time they chose Matthias to fill Judas’ spot. Matthias had been a disciple from the beginning of Lord’s ministry, just not one of the twelve. Remember when the Lord send out 70 disciples, giving them miraculous power? Matthias may have been one of those. Anyway, the apostles had plenty of help to baptize 3000 souls. I guarantee that they didn’t sprinkle either.
“To invoke one of Vlad’s Rules.....the text does not say that Peter and the Apostles baptized them.”
You think the Jews baptized them? Gee, was it the Roman soldiers? Seriously, you embarrass yourself. Acts 2:41 makes it clear the people did not baptize themselves. Peter may have given orders for the 3,000 to be baptized, but it was Peter himself who said “be baptized” in verse 38. Peter and the Apostles, therefore, baptized them. I realize you might be desperate for some sort hollow victory since you repeatedly fail here but come on, what you’re saying is laughable.
I didn’t have to be corrected on anything since there was no error. Whether Peter did the baptizing himself or gave orders he still called for it and it was done under his authority. Do you realize you’re making a pro-papal argument? If you’re saying Peter didn’t do any baptizing but only gave orders for it (and that would be bolstered by Acts 10:48), then that means Peter was acting just like Jesus in the same situation. Jesus ordered the Apostles to baptize. He apparently didn’t do it himself.
In any case you prove the Church is right. Ah, the glories of anti-Catholic failure.
