    Again and finally, those are all your words. Research the Bible and how it came to exist.

    Did the apostles teach baptism?

    I think it is purposeful quite frankly. Cloaked as that which is misconstrued in order to interject confusion for those who may be here to learn how Christians interact with one another, and perhaps to learn something about the word of God from participating Christians. Part of the reason for...

    Did the apostles teach baptism?

    Great site you have there in the footnotes. And no parentheses. ;) https://web.mit.edu/jywang/www/cef/Bible/NIV/NIV_Bible/JOHN+3.html#footnote_181955953_3 21But whoever lives by the truth comes into the light, so that it may be seen plainly that what he has done has been done through God."...

    Not confused in the least. Thank you for your evidence supporting my aforementioned observation of replacement theology doctrinaires. The Old Testament is the foundation of the new. I'm not confused about that in the least.

    Did the apostles teach baptism?

    I never said a thing about false testimony. Those are your words. Again. And yes, I read the same footnote as you did. sn This is a parenthetical note by the author. Remembering we don't have the original manuscripts, called autographs, and that the Disciples themselves did not write the books...

    Did the apostles teach baptism?

    Interesting. "Attack" is your word. As is the notion defending the scripture that refer to the importance of baptism to salvation is akin to boasting. I believe Jesus baptized because there is scripture that says he did. And because I know also what the ( ) in scripture, like that found in...

    Today’s church’s misunderstandings

    Well said. There's a movement about as I see it that intends to contradict what Christ made of importance. I find that suspect. Especially when the effort undertaken intends to revoke the Hebrew calendar of days, and holy days. It's really odd if not pathetic. First when the laws of God are...

    Did the apostles teach baptism?

    Another one? It isn't an Ad hom to confront false teachers bearing false scripture. And it certainly isn't vanity to stand with the scriptures as pertains to the importance of Baptism. What I've noticed is that there is maybe a handful of people who prefer to push the doctrine of easy...

    Did the apostles teach baptism?

    There is one member still that I read that contradicts scripture as if a hobby. I don't blame you.

    Notice the parenthesis in that scripture wherein you're told Jesus didn't baptize? ( )

    Did the apostles teach baptism?

    Which one specifically was Paul referencing per that passage? One Baptism: What we have to understand, and be aware of, is the fact that when speaking of baptism (or being baptized) it can mean one thing in one passage and mean something totally different in another passage. The difference is...

    (This is a true news story) New Orleans Archbishop condemns priest’s desecration of altar in ‘demonic’ sex act

    I will disagree. It is the height of hubris to insist over a billion people are deluded and damned. Perhaps the opinion against Catholics is the log in ones eye that need be of concern.

    (This is a true news story) New Orleans Archbishop condemns priest’s desecration of altar in ‘demonic’ sex act

    My anvi-Vi won't let that page open. However, going by what you said alone, the RCC has never taught such a doctrine. I looked up that site on a search engine. just for catholics.org The Q&A's on this page have been adapted from my correspondence over the years with many Catholics and...

    If the saved that is dead is in heaven ,With GOD ,Why dose the BIBLE say that the dead can not PRAISE the LORD .

    That's correct. The dust that was the mortal flesh knows nothing after death. Our spirit, soul, is not flesh.

    Today’s church’s misunderstandings

    You seem to believe that God wants us to celebrate the Sabbath on Sunday, Actually that's not what I said at all. Jesus did not rise on Sunday. I thought that protracted post of mine made that clear and with scripture. I'll see if I can find a impartial source, not from a member here, to support...
