The only sin an unbaptized baby has is Original Sin. Babies don't have any personal sins because they are too young to commit any personal sins of their own. The two reasons Catholics baptize infants is to remove the original sin that they inherit from Adam and Eve and to incorporate them...

How is it that you did not see it in Scripture?? It happened to Jesus at the Jordan River. The Holy Spirit did come down upon Christ and a voice from Heaven said, "This is my Son whom I am well pleased" (See Matthew 3:16-17). It happened to Jesus and it happens to us when we follow Him...

There was a story about two prisoners of war. One prisoner was Christian and the other was a pagan. The story goes like this: Both the Christian and pagan prisoners were treated brutally.....most especially the pagan prisoner. The pagan was taken and beaten up. Then they left him in the...

It was God who ordered John the Baptist to baptize. John baptized for the forgiveness of sins (See Luke 1:76-79). John baptized at the Jordan River, and all who came to him were baptized, washing away their sins into the waters of the Jordan River. Then comes along Christ and tells John to...

The best way to let them know Jesus Christ is to show them kindness.

Wow! You're the first non-Catholic I've seen who used the Latin word for the way religious people read the Bible. Usually, it's the religious people who practice Lectio Divina. Most lay Catholics don't even read the Bible, but listen to the scriptures being read in Church. Most of them have...

This cat knows Karate!!!! HIYA!!!

Jesus is the Way to salvation......and He got Himself baptized in BOTH water and spirit Therefore, Jesus is the example we should follow. Christ did not leave "water" out; therefore, I will not leave water out as well. Since He got Himself baptized, then that is good enough for me.

If a person truly "believes" our Lord Jesus Christ, then that person would be "obedient". So, when Jesus says, that He who believes and is baptized will be saved, then that person will obey and get himself baptized......because that is what it means to believe. What good is believing if one is...

Hello Jiggfly, You need to read further because I did not stop at verse 34. That is why I placed this symbol .......It goes on to say: 1 Corinthians 11:23-29 For I received from the Lord that which I also delivered to you: that the Lord Jesus on the [same] night in which He was betrayed...

YIKES!!!!!!! :blink: :blink: :blink:

I am not certain what you mean by reading the Bible sacramentally, but am I correct in assuming that those who read it sacramentally are those who read it often? One of the things I admire most about Protestants is that they often read the Bible. Most Catholics do not......and I think that's...

1 Corinthians 11:18-34 First, I hear that there are divisions among you when you meet as a church, and to some extent I believe it. But, of course, there must be divisions among you so that you who have God's approval will be recognized! When you meet together, you are not really interested...

Infant baptism replaced circumcision. In the Old Testament, circumcision is the sign that they are God's people. All male child at 8 days old were circumcised. Even the servants of the Israelites were circumcised. Anyone who was not circumcised was cut off from God's chosen people...

Sin is a struggle for all of us. When you feel this temptation to watch porn, try prayer instead. Pornography can be addicting, so it's best to stop now.

St. Paul did not compare husbands and wives to the Holy Trinity. He compared husbands and wives to Christ and His Church because that is the appropriate analogy. The husband is the one to lead and the wife is the one to follow her husband. In the same way, Christ is the one to lead, and the...

1 Corinthians 15:27-28 For he "has put everything under his feet." [fn] Now when it says that "everything" has been put under him, it is clear that this does not include God himself, who put everything under Christ. When he has done this, then the Son himself will be made subject to him who...

Shalom, Sister Angelina. Yes, the truth will be revealed to all one day. :)

The Pope didn't say anything that goes against the teachings of the Church. He simply said that it's not his place to judge homosexuals because they're sinners like all of us. However, we can say that the ACT of homosexuality is a sin and goes against God's commandment. That is the truth.

I agree with this. Perhaps, the best way to live is to pretend that the Lord is coming tomorrow. If we believe that He comes tomorrow, I'm sure we would all be in our best behavior. :)
