									<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The story of Ruth is, for me, one of the most fascination narratives in the Old Testament. An Israelite leaves his home country in a time of famine, during the rule of the Judges. He takes with him his wife and two sons, who both subsequently marry Moabite woman. The sad part of the story is that first her husband dies, and then both her&hellip;</p>

Many well meaning Christians believe you have to receive what they call &#8220;believers baptism&#8221;, which is basically adult baptism to show that you have truly repented and turned to God, while others hold the &#8220;Infant baptism&#8221; (christening) is sufficient.
