    COMMUNION: Does "is" mean "is?" Catholic, Lutheran, Evangelical

    Did you waste 20 minutes watching the video? (If not, then don’t judge me.)

    Justification

    For what it might be worth, here is the Baptist Faith and Message on SALVATION: IV. Salvation Salvation involves the redemption of the whole man, and is offered freely to all who accept Jesus Christ as Lord and Saviour, who by His own blood obtained eternal redemption for the believer. In its...

    Justification

    Careful, that argument got ME in a lot of trouble in the baptizing babies thread. ;)

    COMMUNION: Does "is" mean "is?" Catholic, Lutheran, Evangelical

    Balderdash. Semantic double-talk.

    Are ALL Homo Sapiens "Children of God?"

    Are all people (homo sapiens) Children of God? No. 1 John 3:10 NASB 4 Everyone who practices sin also practices lawlessness; and sin is lawlessness. 5 You know that He appeared in order to take away sins; and in Him there is no sin. 6 No one who abides in Him sins; no one who sins has seen Him...

    Justification

    Salvation is what GOD says it is: [Mat 24:13 NASB] 13 "But the one who endures to the end, he will be saved. [Mar 16:16 NASB] 16 "He who has believed and has been baptized shall be saved; but he who has disbelieved shall be condemned. [Luk 7:50 NASB] 50 And He said to the woman, "Your faith has...

    Justification

    Reading this topic has been depressing. Since no one else will answer you, here is what the Reformed Theology teaches about salvation in the version that I like best (because it is easy to read). HEIDELBERG CATECHISM INTRODUCTION Lord's Day 1 Q&A 1 Q. What is your only comfort in life and in...

    Lent

    In the Eastern Orthodox Church, too? I know they have a slightly different holiday calendar.

    Did the Pope speak the truth?

    No, I don’t think the Pope was accurate in his answer. Would you have looked the boy in the eye and told him “Nobody is good except God, so your Daddy is now burning in Hell.” (I don’t think that I could have ... or would have.)

    Can babies be conscious of their baptism?

    What does it mean to “enter the Kingdom of Heaven” without FAITH? (You seem to claim that baptism does not bestow faith, but baptism does bestow admittance to the Kingdom of Heaven.) What does it mean for a person to struggle for Salvation without faith? (I am just pressing for clarifications...

    Do you have a verse that teaches that the prayers of the saints for wisdom go unanswered by God?

    Assurance that Jesus died for you

    Is this the anti-Calvinist message of security that you want people to hear? “Jesus died for all the sins of everyone in the whole world. Of course, some people are still going to Hell (Matthew 23:33), so it is UP TO YOU to choose Jesus and to continue to believe, because God will never drop...

    Is the Account of Adam and Eve LITERAL?

    If there was no ‘first Adam’, then that renders all the verses about the ‘second Adam’ meaningless and worse ... false. If scripture contains deliberately false statements from God, then it can hardly be inspired. The ‘mythological’ Adam has deep and profound consequences. Then what do we do...

    Justification

    Once upon a time, a spiritually blind and dead god-hater with literally nothing to live for except killing ‘them’ before they killed him, encountered the reality that the God he had been raised to believe was a fairy-tale (and life had confirmed was at best impotent and indifferent and a worst...

    Follow the leader - or Simon says.

    Perhaps God spoke to both. Romans 14:1-6 NKJV 1 Receive one who is weak in the faith, but not to disputes over doubtful things. 2 For one believes he may eat all things, but he who is weak eats only vegetables. 3 Let not him who eats despise him who does not eat, and let not him who does not...

    You seem unable to differentiate between ESSENTIALS and NON-ESSENTIALS. The ESSENTIALS are unambiguous and the ambiguous are NON-ESSENTIALS. “In essentials unity, in non-essentials liberty, and in all things charity.” - motto of the Moravian Church

    Credobaptists - What about those with disabilities and baptism?

    So when push comes to shove and you are asked to provide an example of what Scripture teaches (to see if Particular Baptists really are ignoring it) ... you have nothing to present. Your accusation appears to be 100% unsupported rhetoric. How disappointing.

    Follow the leader - or Simon says.

    Let’s assume, for this discussion, that free will is 100% correct and there is no predestination. Will this actually impact when and how and why you share the good news with those in need that God sends into your life. Now let’s assume that the elect are all 100% predestined. Will that change...
