    It seems to be that it does, in the case of the RCC and others who follow suit.

    What's the deal with Paul?

    It's the road to spiritual shipwreck---trouble. Only a false Christ will deter someone from His speaking through Paul, who knew Jesus well, and was filled with the Holy Spirit. Yes, those who reject most of the New Testament because someone has told them that Paul is evil, or a liar, or false...

    What's the deal with Paul?

    The path to life, living the life of a righteous person in Christ is a narrow road. It is not talking about salvation there. The anti-Paul stance is definitely a devilish distortion, meant to work on the hearts and minds of those who have experienced a lack of good doctrinal teaching in the...

    What's the deal with Paul?

    That is ultimately the reason why this is a demonic doctrine. The devil's desire is to cause division with his distortions. We are commanded to be diligent and to be watchful that we are not deceived---not listen to every wind of doctrine that comes down the pike! Ephesians 4:!4 Then we will no...

    Why was Mary necessary?

    The teaching does NOT predate the RCC, it came along in 415 AD, about 100 years after the RCC began. Every time Mary is referred to as "The Mother of God", it is a false, misleading, misuse. It blasphemes God and misrepresents His word. It leads people into the idea that Mary is more than she...

    Why was Mary necessary?

    The point is that the idea of calling Mary "The Mother of God" was NOT from the beginning but just after the RCC was begun. It started as a doctrine around the year 431 AD, originating at the council at Ephesus. So, it is a Catholic construct.

    Infant Baptism

    We are not to withhold baptism from anyone who believes. Babies just do not believe. Nowhere in scripture is anyone saved by proxy, nor can they be baptized by proxy. The faith of a parent or guardian of a baby is not transferable. Each person on the face of the earth is given a choice to...

    Why was Mary necessary?

    Most definitely the appellation given to Mary in question in this thread was not from the beginning, and definitely not all Christians submitted to it. "In the 4th century, when Constantine the Great appointed himself Pontifex Maximus – supreme head – of the Christian Church, pagans and their...

    Infant Baptism

    Yes, God works on us and in us by His Spirit, and He says He has given to every man a measure of faith to believe the truth about Jesus. It is up to mankind to respond to the truth he hears---either to accept the message of personal salvation or to reject it. God asks us to choose this day whom...

    Why was Mary necessary?

    That's correct. "Mother of God" is a man contrived appellation, and the topic is answered that Mary was necessary for Jesus to have an earthly mother to raise Him from birth and to give Him that human lineage that God had established through Abraham, and from David's line, from the tribe of Judah.

    Infant Baptism

    No, everyone is given a measure of faith. A person chooses to activate it when he hears the word of truth about Jesus Christ. Then---that person is able to be taught about baptism and is able to choose to obey about it. Baptism in water is not an act of the will by OTHERS on a person! Acts...

    Infant Baptism

    Baptismal water does nothing physically or spiritually, just as the scriptures say....not as for the washing away of dirt from the body but as one comes to it saved, with a clear conscience, already cleansed of sin, one identifies with the Lord Jesus Christ, making a public confession of his faith.

    Infant Baptism

    The water of the word, the rhema of God, the Truth that cleanses and sets us free. Baptism is the symbol of Jesus' death, burial and resurrection and by being immersed in water, we are making a public confession of our new identity in Christ.

    I believe the word is the Greek, "rhema", used in that passage.

    Why was Mary necessary?

    The title of "Mother of God" is just one of a list of things that elevate Mary to a position she doesn't have, and God doesn't give....along with the erroneous and blasphemic, "Queen of Heaven", which is attributed in scripture to a pagan goddess, and nothing else. It just furthers the fiction.

    Article says you can become a Virgin again

    I am greatly familiar in a counseling context of this aspect of forgiveness and the Holy Spirit's desired work in an individual to eradicate shame and guilt, especially concerning sexual sin. It has nothing to do with downplaying the facts, but it has to do with the newness of the life in...
