This is a response I just sent to someone. There’s nothing personal in it, so I wanted to post this here. I hope there’s something helpful in it:
The thing that helped me most with baptism was comparing it to the sinner’s prayer, something I believe Peter does in 1 Peter 3:21. Peter says baptism now [...]

I already wrote a blog this morning. I’m going to write another, anyway.

I've been using this advice for 10 years.
