    That is NOT what atpollard argued, that is simply your steadfast misunderstanding of what atpollard stated. Small wonder there are over 200 posts and so little communication.

    Baptism by Immersion

    The clearest example that shows the meaning of baptizo is a text from the Greek poet and physician Nicander, who lived about 200 B.C. It is a recipe for making pickles and is helpful because it uses both words. Nicander says that in order to make a pickle, the vegetable should first be 'dipped'...

    Baptism by Immersion

    Just water, or “water and the spirit”? What is necessary to become a disciple? (Matthew 28). ... To be buried and raised with Christ? (Romans 6). ... To salvation? (1 Peter 3)

    Baptism by Immersion

    I don’t see that happening any time soon (like ever). I just don’t see Jesus spending most of his efforts focused on little commands or on human rituals. When Jesus talks of baptism at all, it is “water and the spirit” or “baptize with fire”, so it generally cannot be used to refute what JRT...

    Baptism by Immersion

    You may be hard pressed to prove that claim directly from scripture. Where is Jesus’ command to be baptized with water?

    Baptism by Immersion

    Why do you keep mentioning me by name and then posting what has nothing to do with anything that I have posted? I am still not a 16th Century anything and Particular Baptists do not derive their origin or theology from Anabaptist roots. We are an offshoot of the Anglican and Reformed...

    The Great Emergency: The Case For Sunday Laws

    So according to the Opening Post, does this mean SECULAR greed has defeated the Antichrist and Armageddon is cancelled? :boggled:

    Baptism by Immersion

    The Didache, (A.D. 90) "baptize in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit in living water.” Why did it take 1500 years for someone to read the Didache and do what it says ... baptize in living water.

    Baptism by Immersion

    That is IMMERSION like John the Baptist did it (and the Greek word ‘baptizo’ means) ... at least one group of early Greek speaking Christians understood it, apparently. [Traditionally, the the Didache is the teaching of the Apostles.] Why is it you can see the word POUR so clearly, but never...

    a multitude from the Great Tribulation

    That was funny, and pretty close to my reaction when I heard it. Now search for references to Satan controlling people prior to the Crucifixion (like Judas at the Last Supper), and then try to find a reference to Satan controlling someone after the Crucifixion. That was what the advocates...

    Credobaptism

    “Get up and go to work.” ... Is there an implied order or can one go to work FIRST and get up LATER? Can one be “baptized for the repentance of sins”, if one is not repentant of those sins?

    If you start the story of Lydia a little earlier, you will discover that there was a large group of women WORKING at the water and Paul went to them to preach the Good News. Lydia was among those women. You would do well to learn what is involved in making Purple Cloth and it will explain what...

    a multitude from the Great Tribulation

    Sorry, my bad. I generally hate Eschatology and avoid it, so I am not that sharp on some of the small details (like exact numbers). The 144,000 are the Messianic Jews who lead the unbelievers left behind to Jesus, the Messiah. There are MANY more martyrs. (I may be confusing it with another...

    Credobaptism

    I did. The issue is you are demanding a very specific wording and discarding all exegesis that proves the concept valid simply because it lacks the wording you demand. If I can illustrate, here is the opening of the Athanasian Creed: 1. Whosoever will be saved, before all things it is...

    Are babies sinners?

    tango At the risk of upsetting people and driving this discussion into a ditch, the presence or lack of a satisfactory answer depends on what you think saves people. As one of those “mean Calvinists”, I have no problems with dead infants and salvation. If the infant lived to 20 years old...

    The undisclosed age of “X”

    If that was your answer to “How does being forgiven without repenting make sense?”, then yes. I couldn’t follow how that came close to answering the question you were asked.

    The undisclosed age of “X”

    Careful, that logic implies that Abortion Doctors lead more souls to heaven than anyone else.
