I view adult full immersion baptism as OK if that is the ritual of the faith family you are joining. It’s not about the water or the age, but the love. Being a Presby PK, I got the infant dribble, and I am sure that is OK with my congregation and God. Even when there is incense, it’ss not about the incense!
My grandfather was a Baptist minister, and he liked to say, “Some churches sprinkle and some dunk, but we hold ’em under until they REALLY repent.”
