Acts 21: 21-25.
It seems that the belie-
ving Jews continued
to circumcised their chil-
dren; consequently, they
were not taught that
baptism came in the
room of it.
-------------
And while circumcission
was not to be observed
among the gentile Chhs,
there was not the least
intimation, that Bap-
tism was to occupy its
place. ―
--------------
Whence this silence, but
upon the supposition,
that the Apostles were
strangers to this scheme?
-----------------------
3. Not only were the Apostles
silent, but we do not find
that Baptism occupy
the room of circumcission
