    Are you saved because you believe? Or do you believe because you are saved?

    Your posts tell the story; I merely read it and observed its lesson.

    You are unqualified to discern what the scriptures teach, that much is evident from your posts.

    Are you saved because you believe? Or do you believe because you are saved?

    I use God's wisdom to find the truth and share the truth with people who are willing to receive it. Baptism is the first of the seven sacraments, and the "door" which gives access to the other sacraments. Baptism is the first and chief sacrament of forgiveness of sins because it unites us with...

    It's Advent; season of hope for all the faithful.

    Popes are not impeccable, they are merely men, and make mistakes as men are inclined to do. You do not understand Catholic teaching so you present foolish errors that you have learned from someone who also does not know what the Catholic Church teaches. That can be cured, you can learn the...

    New birth = human being.

    Are you saved because you believe? Or do you believe because you are saved?

    I have no need to do so, I have a perfectly good Lexicon of Koine Greek, and another of Latin, and both teach me that baptism is about washing; when one is baptised the sins of the baptised person are washed away and the Holy Spirit comes to give new life. This is the teaching of Christ: "Amen...

    Jesus died for the sins of the world

    That cannot be, because baptism is the sign and seal of new birth, it is by baptism that one is born anew as Jesus taught Nicodemus.

    Are you saved because you believe? Or do you believe because you are saved?

    No, it means baptise. And baptism has a meaning that has nothing whatever to do with submerging anyone.

    You tell a sad story, but it cannot be a story of your own life because Luther has been dead these past 400+ years and no Lutheran or Catholic has persecuted you physically; though I dare say that some have contradicted your erroneous teaching.

    Jesus died for the sins of the world

    Perhaps you do not know it, so I shall tell you, that "Amen, amen, I say to you, unless one has been reborn by water and the Holy Spirit, he is not able to enter into the kingdom of God." is a quote from the bible, and not an interpretation offered by anyone.

    Are you saved because you believe? Or do you believe because you are saved?

    He said baptise, it is you who wishes to 'translate' that word as submerge. Nearly all of the English bibles I have seen avoid that error in translation because English borrowed the word baptise from the Greek of Jesus' apostles, and it is the habit of English speakers to use the perfectly good...

    It's Advent; season of hope for all the faithful.

    Sir, are you not a Baptist; didn't the Baptists excoriate Luther and his baptism as Popish, are you not appealing to an enemy of the religion whose label you have appropriated? And the person to whom you responded is in fact a Lutheran who follows Luther's teaching on baptism and would likely...

    There is one baptism.

    Some teach that there are many baptisms, many teach that there are two - one with water, another with the Holy Spirit - yet the holy scriptures assert that there is one baptism just as there is one faith and one lord. Thus, the holy apostle wrote: Be anxious to preserve the unity of the Spirit...

    We baptise with the one baptism without which no person shall see God.

    Jesus died for the sins of the world

    The light of the world which enlightens every person, he is the one that we receive teaching from and who we study under, he is the Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world.

    We baptise with water, but the one who is to come, who will judge the living and the dead, he is the one who baptises with the baptism that we teach.
