You are an official boy scout now! You took that walk across the bridge with all of us watching and you are now off to earn merit badges and go on campouts. Fun! You are especially grateful that I have finally put on the correct troop # on your shirt I got off of ebay. You had a sleepover with Gpa Lowe that was fun, you took a selfie with the new sunglasses you bought while you were with him. Check our your strong abs! The pic behind you is from just a year ago when you were eating sugar at a Cmas gingerbread house party...now look how strong you are and athletic. Even throwing a baseball at 60mph. You got over a 24 hour sick bug too, puking at 1 and 3am all over the bathroom. So, the next few days was spent with mom at home and making burritos for your brothers' breakfast.

EXPLAINING AWAY MARK 16:16 BY STEVE FINNELL
Faith only believer want Mark 16:16 to just go away. It will not go away, so they try to explain it away. Over 100 translations of the Bible include Mark 16:16, however, that does deter some faith only believers from insinuating or simply stating that Mark 16:16 should not be including in the Bible because it was missing from a couple of manuscripts. If you believe God has a hand in guiding men to translate the Bible correctly, then have to believe Mark 16:16 should be included. If you do not believe the Bible has been translated accurately, then I would suggest that you burn all of your Bibles.
EXPLAINING AWAY
Mark 16:16 He who has believed and has been baptized shall be saved; but he who has disbelieved shall be condemned.
The most popular way of explaining away Mark 16:16 is to say that it does not say, that he who has not been baptized will be condemned, therefore water baptism is not essential to be saved.
If a secular law were written as such: He who does not commit robbery and does not murder will not go to prison; but he who commits robbery will go to jail. Would that mean you can still murder and not go to jail; because it does not state murderers will go to jail? NOT MURDERING IS ESSENTIAL TO NOT GOING TO JAIL!
Being baptized is essential to not being condemned.
There have been many attempts to explain water baptism away from Mark 16:16, including denying that, and, is a conjunction linking belief and baptism. Many attempts at distorting the simple meaning of words and sentence structure are used. Grammatical distortions are used in order to make Mark 16:16 fit the "faith only" narrative.
HAS BEEN BAPTIZED SHALL BE SAVED, STILL MEANS WATER BAPTISM IS ESSENTIAL FOR SALVATION NO MATTER HOW MEN TRY TO EXPLAIN IT AWAY.
