    Should I be rebaptised?

    (1Corinthians 11) 29. "For those who eat and drink without discerning the body of Christ eat and drink judgment on themselves." You said:"The sacrilegious violation of the Eucharist in 1 Cor. 11:29-30 is what causes illness and death." Wouldn't Protestants be automatically subject to this...

    The Flawed Reasoning Of Total Depravity

    Yes, after the initial belief. But, I also don't believe I can lose that belief/faith. I do not believe I can chose to lose the salvation God has given to me. Because, along with the faith in Jesus came faith in the Word of God; the Scriptures. I have talked to Christians who cannot remember a...

    The Flawed Reasoning Of Total Depravity

    God first changes a spiritually dead person's heart to love Him. Then that person comes to the Lord in many different ways, I think. For me, I was reading a verse where Jesus was speaking in one of the Gospels, and I simply believed Him. The only other thing I can remember is that I knew this...

    The Flawed Reasoning Of Total Depravity

    I do believe Him, but I know I did not choose to believe Him. I choose many things of God now, but the initial belief was not a choice.

    That's exactly right.

    The Flawed Reasoning Of Total Depravity

    If you are born-again, you are "the specially chosen".

    Should I be rebaptised?

    Light and darkness: your statement in red is clearly false. It is "Bad News", not the Gospel of the Lord Jesus. It is one reason that the Catholic Church (church of Rome) is not Christian.

    Should I be rebaptised?

    You said, concerning salvation: "There are NO guarantees that cannot fall away and be lost by my OWN doing" Quote from John MacArthur, 2005: "Catholicism isn’t a different denomination, it’s a different religion." So true.

    Church Discipline, Anathema/Excommunication: Can a Church be Christian without formal discipline?

    Discipline. If you are a member of a Church, will it practice church discipline if needed? Are you confident your Pastor/Elders are watching over you?

    Church Discipline, Anathema/Excommunication: Can a Church be Christian without formal discipline?

    I don't think the "Roman Church" is Christian. For centuries they have taught the doctrine of Transubstantiation. They, as a church, worship a physical object: the bread and wine. Christians worship Christ, who cannot be seen. So, the Catholic Eucharist is an idol. In the book of Jeremiah...

    Church Discipline, Anathema/Excommunication: Can a Church be Christian without formal discipline?

    Example: The Catholic Church. Is it Christian?

    Should I be rebaptised?

    "...I have switched to your side." To 'switch' sides you must be born again. Reject the god you worship: the wafer and wine. And believe in the God you cannot see. Just saying...

    Defending Homosexuality

    You seem to be saying that SSA (same sex attraction) is not a sin, but the action which follows it is a sin. I don't agree. The actual desire for sexual activity with the same sex, is a sin. But, I may have misunderstood you.

    Anyone reading Scripture is fallible. I guess we disagree.

    You said: "The 70 (or 72) were preaching His word to His people which make up His Church.." I think you are wrong. They were not preaching to the Church. "...sent them two by two before His face into every city and place where He Himself was about to go." "I send you out as lambs among...

    1. The Pope is fallible. The Pope is infallible. Both are true in your religion. 2. The quote from Luke 10:16 is directed to the 70 (or 72) , not to the Church.

    "You agree with the CC on the fact that the person who is the Pope is fallible." But, the Pope is 'infallible' when he declares something from the chair of Peter, according to your religion? And, wouldn't it be an 'infallible' declaration when he canonizes a saint? Can that be changed? So, your...

    Calvinism is a Cult

    I don't think God can be accused of murder. Murder is unlawful killing, and God is always lawful. Am I missing something here?

    I, like the Pope and the Virgin Mary, am fallible. So, my statements are fallible. And my faith in the Scriptures, and the Son of God, is fallible also. Comes down to faith, again and again.
