I am sure that in 1689 the pope was a kindly elderly gentleman :P
The English liked to pretend that being a Catholic was treason so they would hang, draw, and quarter them. Much meaner than merely burning.
That would have been Anabaptists that they drowned. Lutherans did it to them too. I...
I agree, Baptists and many evangelicals do see baptism as something tied to individual personal repentance while Catholics do not. For Catholics baptism is a means of grace and grace depends on God alone insofar as God is the giver of grace and he gives freely because he wants to and not because...
Why would I want to think about how repentance and forgiveness of sins are connected then? Haven't I already done that?

The question asked is who ought to expect forgiveness without repentance? Telling me about the cross does not answer the question. In fact it is not relevant to the question because the question asks: WHO ought to expect forgiveness WITHOUT REPENTANCE? The question is not "who receives grace?"...

The fellowship of His sufferings. Phil. 3:10
It is enough for the disciple that he be as his master, and the servant as his lord. Matt. 10:25
He is despised and rejected of men; a man of sorrows, and acquainted with grief; and we hid as it were our faces from...
