Hi there Jassy Welcome Brother/Sister?

I have replied to your other introduction thread welcoming you further but may I just ask you a simple question I picked up on from your statement above, possibly the way it was worded but I just would like to clarify..

I hope that you understand that we receive the Holy Spirit upon salvation and not through baptism? Baptism is a step we take after salvation, a public step of declaring we are dead, buried and resurrected with Christ, it has no saving grace nor any power to impart the Holy Spirit.

It could just be the way you typed that sentence but I would just like to clarify that.
