This is true. Conjunctions in the English language can mean many things in different contexts. Here, the order is implied I'm assuming you intended "remission" of sins. That's a fair question, and one that lies at the heart of Credobaptism, imo. Only God and the repentant person can know the...

You've yet to demonstrate that the conjunction "and" NECESSARILY supports chronological order. If i have bacon and eggs for breakfast, did I eat them in that order, or did I have both for the same meal?

How exactly does one know the difference, whether infant, child, or adult? One can confess the faith yet remain an unrepentant sinner. So what is gained by the confession of faith?

I'm not discussing infant baptism here so we'll excuse that. I'm addressing chronological order. Now answer the question

You referenced Acts 2:38 implying chronological order by use of the conjunction "and". So, does "Twist and Shout" imply the same order as "repent and be baptized"? If so, why? If not, why not?

Happy Birthday hotrhymez! Where the heck are you anyway, dude???

Perhaps a musical reference will help. When John Lennon sang "Well shake it up baby, now! Twist and shout!", what was required first in the formula? Why? Could one shout, then twist and shake it up? Or are the instructions to be understood as chronological so that one must shake it up, twist...

I recall asking in another thread, but I don't recall an answer. leaving Menno aside (no offense! :) ), at what point did Mr. Sproul receive faith? If it was "before his fifth birthday" as is your claim, and (as I recall) his claim that he has been growing in faith since before age four: 1)...

Well...

I wonder if these kits are Similar to the fix-a-flat stuff. If so, the tire itself may not be able to be patched. From what I understand, the product interferes with the patching compound and could cause a reaction. You'd have to notify the repair shop of any patching compound you've used for...

Listening to music and not getting involved any longer in threads on baptism. I think that one has jumped the shark

.

I agree with your conclusion here. We may well (or may not) have the Assumption of Mary, but as to her being "Ever Virgin", I would disagree and take the biblical record at face value, that she did, indeed, "know" her husband as well as Christ having true brothers and/or sisters. As I examined...

My mixed race (White/Filipino) niece and nephews should be ashamed. Darned supremacists...

Wondering why I was up at 5:00... Oh well. I'll do some catch-up later. I was pretty well caffeinated when I went to bed so it doesn't take much to figure it out. Not in my 30's any longer

No, but I'm not Josiah. A tactic might be to ignore what seems like 'extra' and address the essence of the post. Ftr, 'Credobaptist' makes sense and I understand that as your worldview

Hmmm... not included, but (unsweetened) Iced Tea. I'm experimenting with different fruit infusions right now. And Iced Coffee - working on a good home brew

I've said nothing about you being wrong. I asked some questions. I guess I was also a bit miffed by the characterization of those with cognitive challenges as being "retarded". I apologize.
