If Phillips were correct, the verse shosws no endorsement of dead baptism.  I could say the Christians in my church went to the movies.  That does not endorse them.  IF some sect of Christians did this, it is not endorsed in the Bible.  AGAIN, I love for Mormons to go do this.  It wastes their tim

Hi James. Thanks for sharing that about J.B. Philips. I did not know that background about him. I'm not real surprised, though, because I remember reading a footnote in his translation of 1 Cor. 14 that says he believes a passage there is the result of a copyist error. Peace be with you. David
