    Salvation Through Baptism ???

    And I suggest that you learn how to exegete the scriptures. You do not under any circumstances produce a doctrine based on one verse of scripture or one incident. The best commentary on the bible is the Bible so when you study any subject you study EVERY verse that deals with it. Until you do...

    The Presence of the Holy Spirit

    Judging by my own experience; empirical evidence; depending on their humility and faith: I have yet to witness; ALL subjective experience of one's own experience. Again I say...what does the scripture teach? That is your yardstick and everything has to line up with that. Acts 2. Repent and be...

    The Presence of the Holy Spirit

    Again not a wise move to base your walk on those who have or have not. We are told to search the scriptures and my modus operandi is to do just that if I hear or see something foreign or new to me. That way I do not get phased by what others do or not do. I feel very blessed because God has...

    Discernment vs Critisism

    Discernment can involve criticism. If a person is preaching blasphemy, you don't say to them, "There there, be a good boy and forget that idea." You speak the truth and correct the mistake. When Jesus got angry about the money changers in the temple, (yes he did get angry) he didn't go to each...

    Passover vs Eucharist

    There is nothing mystical in communion. You are given wine, grape juice, water, or whatever to drink and you drink it, and you are given a bit of bread or cracker or whatever and you eat it. That is the sum total of it. When I ask a catholic what blood tastes like the same answer every...

    The Presence of the Holy Spirit

    it is not wise to make pronouncements based on one's own experience. "Because you haven't done this, seen this, or experienced this then it cannot happen." I was not aware that God operates by rote as in your turn today and your turn tomorrow. The Spirit is given severally as HE WILLS. You...

    The Presence of the Holy Spirit

    Acts 8:14-17 8:14. Now when the apostles in Jerusalem heard that Samaria had received the word of God, they sent them Peter and John, 15. who came down and prayed for them that they might receive the Holy Spirit. 16. For He had not yet fallen upon any of them; they had simply been baptized in...

    They are not false teachers. They are not teachers full stop. Spouting your opinion doesn't make you a teacher.

    Passover vs Eucharist

    Which country do you live in? We don't have giants here. Just normal people.

    Except a man be born of WATER and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God.

    OK, to avoid being pedantic, you do not base a doctrine on a verse of scripture, especially when there are many verses that do not support your theology on any issue.

    Is there salvation outside the Catholic Church?

    What a stupid question. Of course, there is salvation outside of the catholic church.

    Except a man be born of WATER and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God.

    You do not under any circumstances form a doctrine based on one verse of scripture, especially when there are a dozen that say the opposite.

    Except a man be born of WATER and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God.

    Acts 2. Repent AND be baptized in the Name of Jesus Christ and you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit. So simple and so obvious.

    What do you think of churches that promote positivity?

    What churches are you referring to? Until we know that we cannot answer your question.

    Salvation Through Baptism ???

    No one is saying that it is. As I have said very clearly more than once, repentance is the first step and which means getting rid of the old man. The second step is baptism which is putting on Christ or the new life that is in Christ. P.S. Can you tell me if you have any theological...
