Section 27 of the Epistula Apostolorum, a text dating to about A.D. 140, reads as follows:
[Christ says] And I poured out upon them my right hand the water of life and forgiveness and salvation from all evil of life and forgiveness and salvation from all evil, as I have done unto you and to them that believe in me. But if any believes in me and does not follow my commandments, although he has confessed my name he shall have no profit from it.
This is another text showing that the earliest Christians accepted baptismal regeneration; those who hold to a purely symbolic understanding of water baptism are battling against a mountain of both biblical and patristic evidence.
