    What is the purpose of infant baptism?

    1 Cor. 3:9 – God invites us to participate in Christ’s work because we are God’s “fellow workers” and one family in the body of Christ. God wants His children to participate. The phrase used to describe “fellow workers” is “sunergoi,” which literally means synergists, or cooperators with God in...

    What is the purpose of infant baptism?

    How does this non-reply justify your denial of subordinate mediation? Did I not post enough detail explaining it??? "sole mediator" is not a slogan! Does God not have the power to allow our participtation/intercession? What kind of loving Father is that??? You post a verse as if we have never...

    What is the purpose of infant baptism?

    That's the very reason their are subordinate mediators in the first place. Protestants will argue, “If Jesus is our one mediator, then Christ alone mediates grace. In saying anyone else can, :mad:Catholics are usurping and thereby denying Christ’s singular role as mediator. :mad:That’s...

    What is the purpose of infant baptism?

    Before Vatican II (1965), the homily was always in the vernacular. GOSSIP doesn't make FACTS. Look what happened immediately after the Prot Revolt. I. PROTESTANT INTOLERANCE: AN OVERVIEW II. PLUNDER AS AN AGENT OF RELIGIOUS REVOLUTION III. SYSTEMATIC SUPPRESSION OF CATHOLICISM IV. PROTESTANT...

    What is the purpose of infant baptism?

    Augustin56 said: If that's true, then the Smyrnaeans would have no clue what Ignatius was talking about. Belief always precedes "terms". Trinity is a term not in the Bible but believed before the term came about. It's not a stretch to believe the term "Catholic" was used BEFORE Ignatius. I've...

    What is the purpose of infant baptism?

    A non-sequitur fallacy, If Christ Jesus didn't establish the Catholic Church, then who did??? And when? Oh, I forgot, you don't answer questions, just like ran from the definition of "pray" and reply with 2 more baseless rants. "Catholic" is English for the Greek "kata holos" found in Romans...

    What is the purpose of infant baptism?

    Anti-Catholicism is a tradition of men and we have every right to defend against your misconceptions. This is not a reply to your narrow definition of "pray". The English definition can be found in any dictionary and you refuse to face the reality. Huffing and puffing with insults is not a...

    What is the purpose of infant baptism?

    I didn't say anything about your prayer directly to God not being granted. So far, so good. Intercession doesn't mean "changings God's mind". What kind of God would grant a prayer that is NOT in your best interest??? Another absurd scenario. You're muddying the waters. God's decision to deny...

    What is the purpose of infant baptism?

    Prayer does not mean worship. "Pray only to God" means you don't care about the meaning of "pray" so you change it to make it fit. “for I am in anguish in this flame”, please remind me of where you think this flame is located. Limbo of the Fathers, or Hades, as it says in Luke 16:23. So not...

    What is the purpose of infant baptism?

    I can tell an anti-Protestant know-it-all who rejects the Nicene Creed, and claims to be a Christian. Quasi-Christian or pseudo-Christian, perhaps. Before putting you on ignore, I'll wait and watch you make a complete fool of yourself. You don't want to discuss anything or ask sincere questions...

    What is the purpose of infant baptism?

    That's correct, because splashing water on a baby is not baptism. You present a Docetic or Dualistic argument when you subtract spirit from water. Adult only baptism is a man made tradition that started AFTER the Protestant Revolt. Luther and Calvin baptized infants, you don't mock them. And...

    What is the purpose of infant baptism?

    Catholic vestments, worn by clergy during liturgical ceremonies, are rich in history, symbolism, and theological significance. These garments, varying in color and style, are not merely ornamental but carry deep spiritual meaning. (as does the vestments of the Jewish High Priest) This article...

    What is the purpose of infant baptism?

    In 1534 Canterbury Convocation petitioned Henry VIII that the whole Bible might be translated into English. Consequently, in 1535, Coverdale dedicated this complete Bible to the King.[9]: 201  After much scholarly debate, it is now considered very probable that the place of printing of the...

    Biden's morals are in the gutter, but he stands against an evil empire. Trump has good morals, but he likes dictators. I'm glad to be Canadian, but our prime minister is a liberal pansy. Maranatha!
