Waters of Death
The waters closed in over me to take my life; the deep surrounded me… (Jonah 2:5)
The Errant Typology of Baptismal Sprinkling
The Bible is an incredibly complex book, however it is also an incredibly consistent book. Its symbolism is a language, which means that although it is flexible enough to allow for new combinations, it has a core which remains steadfast from Genesis to Revelation. This means that, just as we have no excuse for refusing to read this book of types for what it is, we also have no excuse for misusing its types to support any otherwise unsupportable dogma.
