    The President mocks Dr.Ford's testimony

    It's not good.

    Would I be admitted?

    I thought that would be the case. You could send an email asking the local Baptist pastor what he would advise if you were to seek membership in either his church or a similar Baptist church elsewhere but that might be more trouble than the questions deserves.

    Salvation - Part 2

    When I think about salvation I think about the goodness of God, his grace, and the love he shows and has shown in giving his Son, the Lord, Jesus Christ, for the sins of the whole world.1 John 2:1-6 My little children, I am writing this to you so that you may not sin; but if any one does sin, we...

    Brother ImaginaryDay2, do you know if you'd be accepted or not yet?

    Faith without good works is dead.

    It is excellent to see the thread firmly on track and on topic.

    The 73 canonical books of Holy Scripture.

    If the digit 6 is pre-appended to 66 the result is 666 and if the digit 6 is post-appended to 66 the result is 666. :)

    Salvation - Part 2

    The water is implied in the word baptism. I wrote this for the benefit of MennoSota to whose post you replied. It is true that the meaning of the word "baptism" can be wide in some circumstances. Saint John the Baptist referred to the Lord, Jesus Christ, as baptising with fire and the Holy...

    Faith without good works is dead.

    Your post offers high praise for MennoSota. It interests me to know what response will be given. The holy scriptures tell us that no good work goes unrewarded but the worldly adage says no good work goes unpunished. Nevertheless the fundamental proposition of this thread is that faith without...

    Jesus Christ, died for all

    I've never thought of the seventh day as dying for the sins of God's people nor have I ever though of Sabbath keeping as one of the weightier matters of the Law as are justice and mercy.

    Salvation - Part 2

    You are right. Holy scripture does not fetter God. Yet when God promises to forgive and to give grace he will do it. The holy scriptures are a reliable guide when what they say is used in a godly and faithful way.

    Salvation - Part 2

    What I am wondering is how do folk with a theology similar to MennoSota's, Baptist folk and some Pentecostal folk, interpret what saint Peter wrote in the passage I quoted before. 1 Peter 3:13-22 Now who is there to harm you if you are zealous for what is right? 14 But even if you do suffer for...

    Kavanaugh has an accuser

    If you are referring to Dr Ford (and I kind of doubt that such is the case) then she made no claim about being drugged and raped. But one of the other women did say she was drugged and raped but has not, as far as I know, said that judge Kavanaugh was the man who raped her.

    The 73 canonical books of Holy Scripture.

    By the authority of Christ given to the Church. The precedent is from the councils in the early centuries of the church. The decision about 73 books is not entirely exclusive; other books may be read in the churches of other communions and Catholic Christians are always free to use the versions...

    Salvation - Part 2

    I am not sure what the most common age (in days) of an infant presented for baptism might be. From what I've seen, many are several months old, but many parents who present their children for baptism are infrequent attendees at mass so I guess that their religion is partly cultural and partly...

    Jesus Christ, died for all

    Rebuttal? It was a question. Not a statement. Very few minds are open to change especially on religious matters.

    Salvation - Part 2

    I cannot answer for the theories presented by others here or elsewhere. To me baptism usually refers to the rite that is administered by the Church for the penitent who seek admission into the community of faith.

    Salvation - Part 2

    You are right, brother Arsenios, it is not the Holy Spirit who performs the baptism mentioned in 1 Corinthians 12:12-13. The passage says otherwise, 1 Corinthians 12:12-13 12 For just as the body is one, and yet has many parts, so all the parts of the body, though they are many, are only one...

    Yes, that was on the news a few day ago. Very frightening. Indonesia has had some bad times with natural disasters this year.
