    Did the ancient Pagan Religions get picked up as 'tradition'?

    Here at CH we consider Catholics to be Christians.

    It's not in the text. Admit it.

    If paedobaptism were taught...

    You can't prove that anyone else but Lydia heard the gospel. Can you? Here is why I bring this up, you argue repeatedly that households don't specifically include children in the text so infants should not be baptized. Right? But here is a text that shows that only Lydia heard the message and...

    Well, honestly, you could read the rest of the scripture in context and then point out to me where it says that the rest of the household heard? Please tell me since you keep insisting that scriptures prove what you've been claiming. It's not there though. Acts 16: 13-15 On the Sabbath we went...

    If paedobaptism were taught...

    Read the scripture quote again. Now tell me where they taught the household. Or are you inferring something in there that isn't written? Here it is again Among those listening was a woman named Lydia, a dealer in purple cloth from the city of Thyatira, who was a worshiper of God. The Lord...

    Jason, what do you say? Would you like to be in charge of doing a few quizzes so we can see how it goes?

    If paedobaptism were taught...

    Could you do me a favor and point out where Lydia's household were taught first? Scripture only tells us that Lydia was taught and the Lord opened her heart and then her household was baptized. It's Acts 16:14-15 Among those listening was a woman named Lydia, a dealer in purple cloth from the...

    Do you understand WHY Tertullian discourages infant baptism? You would be surprised as to the truth! But I think that should be another thread.

    I'd certainly like to know what year that documentation could be found! It's not in scripture at all.

    So... What are YOU doing? - Part 7

    I'm doing a bunch of things around the house and every time my daughter's guinea pig hears me she goes "want! want! want!" She has different sounds for different things and figured out that if she says want that means she's hungry :D She's the same pig that starting going "woof woof woof" when...

    I've provided documentation before in other threads: Polycarp (69-155), a disciple of the Apostle John, was baptized as an infant. This enabled him to say at his martyrdom. "Eighty and six years have I served the Lord Christ" (Martyrdom of Polycarp 9: 3). Justin Martyr (100 - 166) of the next...

    If paedobaptism were taught...

    Entire households were baptized as we've brought up before in these types of threads. That would always include the servants and their children as well. Households weren't like today where there people used birth control to hold off on having children. They believed children were a blessing from...

    Lämmchen's Workout Thread

    Still maintaining 10,000 steps a day! When I walk outside my allergies get to me so I might wait until all the crops here are harvested before I continue my walks outside. Whenever I walk near the corn fields I can't breathe.

    evidence of a true walk with God

    Because we have been given the gift of the Holy Spirit we want to please God, bear fruit and grow in faith. Those are the things the Holy Spirit guides us into doing. As sinful man, our sin gets in the way and wants to do other things which is why God keeps working with us over and over again...

    If paedobaptism were taught...

    You are correct because the early church understood that baptism and teaching go hand in hand. You baptize and you teach...you teach and you baptize. Jesus didn't want one without the other which is why He said for the disciples to baptize AND teach.

    If paedobaptism were taught...

    No. I did not say that. You don't think infants can believe even though John while in the womb jumped for joy when Mary who was carrying Jesus came near. Infants CAN believe in God. I never said that. I never said that it does. I'm saying that because of God's promises in baptism that...

    If paedobaptism were taught...

    Isn't God's word alive and active (Hebrews 4)? THAT is how an infant is taught God's word, by God Himself who can reach anything He wants. I mean, God can make a donkey talk so He can give an infant faith.

    evidence of a true walk with God

    I'm asking anyone who wants to answer. As a Lutheran, any evidence that I'm with God all points to God and the things HE does, whether that's for me or through me. In Justification it's God doing the work completely and in my sanctification I cooperate but it's more like me trying to walk down...
