    Infant Baptism

    I am glad that you still have some humour left :) This thread is much too long and the matter has been debated far too much but it is fun to amuse a brother. Wash away thy sins, say the scriptures but one does not assume that a bath or a shower will achieve this end. Even a very deep and...

    My shower washes me by sprinkling me with clean water :P

    And thus shalt thou do unto them, to cleanse them: Sprinkle water of purifying upon them, and let them shave all their flesh, and let them wash their clothes, and so make themselves clean. (Numbers 8:7 KJV) Then will I sprinkle clean water upon you, and ye shall be clean: from all your...

    If salvation were decided for eternity in an instant of belief or in an instant of baptism then your question would be appropriate but do you believe that salvation is decided that way? I presume that only a few believe that having said the sinner's prayer the rest of their life is irrelevant...

    Build your own religion ... using orthodox christian beliefs

    The idea of this thread is to see how far we can get in constructing a religion by means of agreeing on doctrines that are to be included in a confession, creed, or statement of faith that defines the religion's stance on everything that seems important. Build your own religion ... using...

    Let's return to the themes proposed in the original post. This thread was not meant to be an excuse for attacking the Catholic Church or any of the denominations of Protestantism.

    Yes. Martin Luther left the Catholic Church having been excommunicated. Luther burned the bulla of excommunication and started his own denomination in 1521 AD and he invented doctrines to both justify his actions and condemn any who opposed his new denomination. Who believes Martin Luther's...

    Infant Baptism

    In Judea when Jesus walked the Earth burial was being placed in a tomb without any dirt being thrown on top. Just roll the stone away and walk in and out after the resurrection. Do you remember the story of Lazarus, brother of Mary and Martha? He was placed in his tomb and when the Lord Jesus...

    That's right. There were no denominations until well after the sixteenth century AD. Denominations are a product of schisms among Protestant Christians. None of the ancient Churches ever conceived of themselves by that name or by that concept.

    Many who are among the separated brethren see absurdity where there is Divine purpose. You are not unique in it.

    Why was Mary necessary?

    The fuss may be because without it few weapons against the Catholic Church remain for those who want to condemn her. So many of the old weapons have been taken away because they cannot withstand scrutiny and were found to be lies - the product of wicked imaginations and propaganda. This weapon...

    I don't think that Catholic means universal without distinction. The Catholic Church is universal in some senses. It is universal in time because it has always been from the time when Adam and Eve had their first child until now and into eternity. It is universal in extent because she is present...

    That's right, there's no evidence in holy scripture that anybody was submerged in baptism.

    Infant Baptism

    Credo-baptism as the only form of baptism offered and approved by a denomination is an error. It's an error because it diminishes baptism. It refuses to acknowledge baptism for the forgiveness of sins (Acts 22:16) and it refuses to acknowledge baptism as effecting union with Christ (Romans...
