The Church of Scotland Kirk at Dunino, Scotland, where I preached a number of times had been a church since the 1200s. It was located on what had been a Druid religious site. On the far wall were stones taken from the Druid shrine, incised with crosses and baptized into Christian use. In the history of the faith we have many things which have been baptized into Christian practice. Such things as Christmas trees, wreaths, yule logs had pagan origins but have now become Christian symbols. Even in scripture we find materials from other religious sources which have been adopted into Judeo – Christian literatures. This “baptism” has enriched the faith. It has its parallel in the lives of human beings. Many are the stories of pagan, ancient and modern, who have been baptized into the faith and transformed into a new usefulness in the Kingdom of God. How rich their inclusion has been for all of us. All we Gentiles are part of that group originally, although many of us are some generations away from those first converts. We have all, however, been changed and baptized into a new usefulness in the Kingdom of God. Whether first generation or later generations, our baptism demonstrates that we are all part of the great wall of the church, marked by the cross and baptized into the church’s very foundation.
