    How do I believe?

    You won't have faith based on that one verse. Faith doesn't come from that verse or any other verse.

    Infant Baptism

    I gave 21 verses not "the odd single verse" one passage is 14 verses long, another is five verses long, Acts 22:16 is part of saint Paul's story of conversion and the story is many verses long. 1 Peter 3:21 is part of an admonition to keep a good conscience even if it leads to Earthly suffering...

    I agree and I'd add that having a priest preach a 10 to 15 minute homily in a liturgy that lasts a full hour helps to put the focus on Christ and off the pastor. If the homily is poorly delivered (meaning delivered like it was from a chap who would fail as an entertainer or stand up comedian)...

    I am curious and I know this is an aside and all but what canonical scriptures does your church recognise?

    I am observing the last word in the Infant Baptism thread with a slightly wry smile on my face.

    Does TV and film invade your thoughts and lead you astray?

    Let's not get into stereotypes about celibacy among Latin rite priests. Catholic priests in numerous Eastern rites do marry if they want (provided that they marry before becoming priests). The truth is that no person is forbidden marriage because no person is compelled to take a vow of celibacy...

    Infant Baptism

    You keep saying that but the bible says the opposite in 1 Peter 3:21, Acts 22:16, Romans 6:1-14, John 3:1-5 and numerous other passages. Of course I'll leave you to have the last word on it if you wish.

    Does TV and film invade your thoughts and lead you astray?

    Okay, I saw that when you first said it. I was curious to know how discipline occurred in Word of Faith meetings. In the Catholic Church there have been some recent excommunications that received public news reports and occasionally the news reports on various forms of Church discipline applied...

    Infant Baptism

    Oh yes, they do speak an unambiguous truth; namely that the blood of the new covenant is in the chalice that Jesus handed to his disciples and that blood was the Lord's. But that is about the holy Eucharist and the forgiveness of sins rather than baptism and the forgiveness of sins. Yes, they...

    Infant Baptism

    I think it means "For the remission of sins" just as it says. I don't quite understand why your views about baptism always need to change what the holy scriptures say so that you can advance what they "really mean". Does your denomination have its own translation that changes it to "because .."...
