    Then you must prove by Scripture, according to YOUR false tradition... That INFANTS are NOT members of a Household... In YOUR Household [Ekon(omia) - Strong's number 3423] In THOSE days... YOU decide who is and is not Baptized... In THESE days... In YOUR household... YOU determine it as...

    Would I be admitted?

    Nor, (like the servant), is a child free, though he is heir of all... Gal 4:1 Now I say, That the heir, as long as he is a child, differeth nothing from a servant, though he be lord of all... We STILL Baptize our Children INTO Christ... WHY would YOU not DO so TOO??? Arsenios

    Baptism ENTERS us INTO Christ... 13 For we were all baptized IN one Spirit so as to form one body The text does NOT say that we are baptized BY the Holy Spirit, but instead says that our Baptism is IN one Spirit so as to form ONE Body... Most translations in the West translate EN here as...

    Salvation - Part 2

    Which all by itself proves the existence of God! :) Here is a commentary by St. Ambrose: "Both Apostles and Prophets received that One Spirit, as the vessel of election. The doctor of the Gentiles, says: 'For also in One Spirit were we all Baptized into One Body... And were all given to...

    I love your optimism! And join you in your challenge... fwiw - I can give it in less than 10 seconds standing on one foot... And this, mind you, in my mid 70s, I say! And so can you! Arsenios

    Would I be admitted?

    Why would one wish to prevent children from being Baptized INTO Christ? Only ONE spirit wants to keep us outside of Christ... We Baptize our children... In days of old, we Baptized our servants as well... We wanted our servants to be HIS Servants... AS His Servants they wanted to be OUR...

    Salvation - Part 2

    Arguing from Scripture needs Scripture to argue from: 1Co 12:12 Καθάπερ γὰρ τὸ σῶμα ἕν ἐστι καὶ μέλη ἔχει πολλὰ, For just as the body is one and has many members πάντα δὲ τὰ μέλη τοῦ σώματος yet all the members of the body of them (are) one τοῦς ἑνός, πολλὰ ὄντα, of them...

    Is Trump Stupid? Are All Republicans Stupid?

    The leftist press seems to think that it has been given the responsibility to tell us what is true... And they do not believe in truth but in power... And it's all down hill from there... Arsenios

    Is Trump Stupid? Are All Republicans Stupid?

    His High School pals all learned to never bet against him... He was not one to lose... The Press is still learning what his High School pals already know... He is a master strategist in his tactics... The long range is always in view... The hateful character assasins of the Left are being...

    Php 1:29 οτι υμιν εχαρισθη That unto you has been graced το υπερ χριστου That which [is] for the sake of Christ ου μονον το εις αυτον πιστευειν not alone that which is to be believing into Him αλλα και το υπερ αυτου πασχειν but also that which is to be suffering for His sake...

    Faith without good works is dead.

    Well, he appropriately blew off the praise, and re-affirmed his position... Well, no good DEED goes unpunished, but neither does any good deed go unrewarded... But there are two kinds of rewards - Worldly and heavenly... Discipleship seeks to establish in one's soul the consecration of...

    Faith without good works is dead.

    That was not my intention... Different people have different presences... But if someone is a practicing Baptist and encounters God, one might then think that being a Baptist is why God encountered that person... Same with many other Christian denom's... Padre Pio was one of the great...

    Faith without good works is dead.

    I was not trying to stroke you - I was simply assessing your presence here... No great Prophetic insight, but just what seems to have happened... Arsenios

    Faith without good works is dead.

    Menno, I am satisfied, as a Protestant Christian, had a very Holy encounter with the Holy Spirit some years back, an encounter that turned his life utterly toward God, and he very reasonably understood that encounter to be his Salvation, and by extension his Baptism into Christ. That was his...

    Would I be admitted?

    Well, Christ sent only His Apostles to disciple all the nations, baptizing them and teaching them... Christ's disciples ARE the Body of Christ... They baptize INTO that Body those seeking entry into it in repentance from sin... Where your point gets sketchy these days is that anyone who reads...

    Where is water in the Old Testament? It is fully attested in the New Testament... Immersion in the Holy Spirit IS Salvation in God in the Old Testament, yet even there, the People as the circumcision are saved by water and by Blood... - eg by the Blood of Lambs eaten and sprinkled on door...

    Salvation - Part 2

    Well, you are right that God keeps His Promises... And some of these are written in Scripture... Do you regard keeping promises as a limitation? I mean, not for God it isn't... God keeping His Promises is Joy... So also then is our keeping of them: "My vows unto the Lord will I pay... In the...
