No, Brian. He doesn't. You think that, but you think wrong. You are so wrapped up in your church that you misinterpret what God is saying. In your interpretation, grace is abandoned and salvation is by human works.

Brian, Jesus doesn't promise what you claim. You have entirely misunderstood the passage. Not only that, you are effectively saying that God does not save by grace, through faith, but instead you are saying that God saves based upon the works one does. I suggest you read the Bible and leave the...

Brian, no one, besides you will ever take those verses and force infant baptism into those verses. It just isn't there. You are clinging to a fantasy in your own mind.

Well... that's a big but. Josiah, you are demanding an exact wording by Peter, and if you see none, you declare "anything goes." Of course, that only applies to your pet traditions to which you hold. If a cult uses your same tactic, you would denounce them immediately. I reject your contention...

God doesn't say his salvation is caused by your baptism. You misunderstand grace when you tie it to a work you are doing so that you can acquire a favor from God. In that case you are not receiving grace, you are receiving the wages you believe you deserve, based upon the action you took.

Jesus isn't talking about baptism. Brian, you are just making things up and claiming your make believe as reality.

You're moving the goalposts, Brian. You're also making unsubstantiated claims. Mary isn't on the shroud and neither is Jesus. It's a fabric that was never in Palestine. You are clinging to mysticism preached by a church, not truth taught by God.

I take it you will now renounce infant baptism as a non-biblical ceremony.

LOL, tell that to my father who loved God with all his heart and had full belief in the Redeemer, Jesus Christ. He died 7 years ago from pancreatic cancer, but I shall one day see him again when we meet before our King. Physical life ends, but God keeps our Spirit until the resurrection when we...

The shroud of Turin is not an image of Jesus. It is a fabric some Roman Catholic claimed as the fabric that wrapped around Jesus and gullible followers bought the ruse. Brian, place your faith in Jesus, not a piece of fabric that never was in Palestine.

All whom God has given Jesus will be kept forever. Yet, all humans die, physically. Death is undefeated. As Paul says: "To live is Christ and to die is gain." Brian, you really don't know what you are talking about.

There are no traditions to prove. Unlike you, I live by Sola Scriptura and what the Bible tells us, not by sola lutherana and what your concord tells you.

Then, all humanity is baptized as infants with the Holy Spirit and all humanity is saved at infancy. But, that is not what the Bible teaches at all regarding humanity. Brian, it is clear you want something to be true, but you have no understanding of the Bible and thus make things up according...

Believe what? What is the "this" you are referring to?

Please show me a 2 week old to 3 month old child that openly comes to Jesus as a believer and then is baptized. No one denies a child the opportunity to be in church with the community of believers and hear the good news of Jesus drawing rebels to himself and reconciling them to redemption...
