I think John's point is that in the Bible, people did not invite the Lord into their lives through saying "the sinner's prayer." Rather, they were led into the waters of baptism rather than into saying a prayer. Do you recognize this Izzy? The sinner's prayer is not a Biblical way of leading people to faith in Christ and the experience of being born again. If anyone accepts this method as valid, it is not because they learned it directly from the Bible. Do you agree? Peace be with you.
