    Baptism by sprinkling

    Romans chapter six does not say a word about your body dying, does it? You've been saying "literally" by which I presume you mean "physically" but since the passage does not mention physical bodily death your use of "literally" to mean "physically" is at best misleading. So I maintain that...

    Christians taking communion in other churches

    The gospel according to saint John does not include a last supper story and neither Matthew nor Mark say that Judas received holy communion, do they? And don't you yourself reject Mark's gospel as non-canonical?

    Baptism by sprinkling

    Yes, we really do die to sin and rise to new life in Christ. It really happens. It is not symbolic and it is not an empty ritual.

    Christians taking communion in other churches

    You're basing these strong declarations on speculation that Judas did in fact receive communion from the Lord. That is not proven. It is in fact rather doubtful.

    Christians taking communion in other churches

    Judas died a short time after the Lord's last supper. If he did partake then he ate and drank condemnation to himself. It ended very poorly for him.

    Christians taking communion in other churches

    It is not what I believe. The holy Eucharist is holy if I were an atheist or a Buddhist monk because it is objectively holy and that is why saint Paul warns about unworthy partaking. You see, if it were faith that made it holy then an atheist could partake without any danger to him/her self. It...

    Baptism by sprinkling

    Baptism is not symbolic. Since you start with an error you're going to end in error.

    It isn't communion in the sense in which you & I mean it. In a Baptist meeting the communion is a symbolic memorial ritual.

    Communion - Symbolic or Real?

    It means that I was in fact born from above through baptism as the Lord said. His words are not a metaphor nor do they describe a symbolic ritual. They can be taken at face value. The same is true of the Holy Supper of the Lord. His words "this is my body" and "this is my blood of the covenant...

    Communion - Symbolic or Real?

    I do not interpret the words "you must be born from above" symbolically nor the words "In all truth I tell you, no one can enter the kingdom of God without being born through water and the Spirit". They are truths that relate to baptism.

    Churches, Doctrines, and Trustworthiness

    How would one know that a person is "deaf concerning the voice of God" if they state that they fully and completely believe in God and receive the holy scriptures as revelation from God and cultivate an attitude of listening with patience to the voice of the Spirit in what they teach and do...
