    Infant Baptism is not given in scripture.

    You dodged my question again :mad:: My doctrine is "man-made" and your doctrine is.......God made? I will reword it for you: I read the bible. I interpret a passage in the bible that says you MUST do ABC to be saved. That is my doctrine. You read that same passage and you say a person does...

    Infant Baptism is not given in scripture.

    So your theory is that the Apostles practiced what they preached only 1 time; when they replaced Judas? When the 11 other Apostles died there was no vote on who would take their place? Is that your theory? Curious Mary

    Except for when Mathias replaced Judas......other than that "Nowhere" can it be found. And your theory that the Apostles practiced what they preached only 1 time....when Judas was replaced....is laughable especially if you ignore historical Christian writings. Thanks for your time David.....Mary.

    You suggest I shouldn't get "hung up on 2000 years of teaching" yet YOU are hung up on 500 years of teaching (Protestant teachings). Fascinating......The 500 year teaching you adhere to are not "false, man contrived nonsensical, unscriptural, teaching and practice" but the teachings of the men...

    I do know. I got to be in Christ via The Church he started. How did you get to be "in Christ"? You dodged my question: My doctrine is "man made" and your doctrine is.......God made?

    Infant Baptism is not given in scripture.

    Hey David, Are you suggesting that since Scripture doesn't mention a replacement for James that they didn't replace James in the same manner that they replaced Judas? That their agreement at the Council of Jerusalem on how to replace an office holder (an Apostle) was only a 1-time deal and...

    :jest: YOU have given @BreadOfLife the Word of God and BOL is pushing a false doctrine and teachings that go against Scripture? BOL refuses to stand corrected and BOL's heart is hardened? Oh goodness......My eyes have been open to who you really are.

    Oh goodness Dash. I apologize if I left you with the impression that I thought you were a cult member. I do not think you are. If you read what I wrote you would see at the beginning of my post I said I am a recovering Protestant. I then listed the problems with Protestantism. I then at the end...

    Got it........YOU have figured out what early Christian teachings are "contrary to sctitural {sic} doctrine" but Marymog and The Church hasn't figured out what is contrary to Scriptural doctrine? My doctrine is "man made" and your doctrine is.......God made? Interesting......:IDK:

    Infant Baptism is not given in scripture.

    Thanks DJT. We agree, smlinfants have not and cannot commit sin. Clearly you don't believe in original sin spoken of in Scripture and taught by Christianity for 2,000 years so I will skip that discussion. And you interpret the verses in Scripture on how baptism replaces circumcision and that...

    Infant Baptism is not given in scripture.

    Yes, very good Dash. I am a member of The Church. Thank God I am a recovering Protestant. Every Protestant church I went to taught a different "truth" and accused other Protestant denominations of not teaching the Truth. NONE of them could trace their teachings back to the Apostles or even the...

    Infant Baptism is not given in scripture.

    LOL...Ok. Since I debunked your theory using Scripture you decided not to debate anymore. :( You previously said that you "never claimed ownership of truth." And that you "believe what is written.' But when I say that I also believe what is written and give you my interpretation of "what is...

    Infant Baptism is not given in scripture.

    I agree with you. You do not own the Truth of Scripture. What you are teaching is your interpretation of the Truth. The Church owns the Truth: 1 Timothy 3:15. If you do not obey the teachings of The Church (how The Church interprets Scripture) you are to be treated as a pagan/tax collector...

    Baptism now saves you. Can't get any clearer than that. How are infants saved if they can't yet believe? Curious Mary

    Your men have lied to you. All my previous posts on this thread and 2,000 years of Christian teachings debunk all your opinions. Go back and read BOTH. God bless, Mary

    Infant Baptism is not given in scripture.

    Scripture is silent on infant baptism. That means both our arguments start out at zero. Entire families baptized. Infants are part of families: +1 for infant baptism, you are still at zero They were bringing infants/children to Him and the Apostles. He said do not hinder them. Hinder them from...

    Once again, your men have deceived you and they are wrong which makes you wrong: https://christholdfast.org/books-of-the-bible/pastoral-epistles/ https://www.biblestudytools.com/bible-study/topical-studies/what-are-the-pastoral-epistles-bible.html...

    Infant Baptism is not given in scripture.

    Thanks bdavidc, I can now see where you have been taught wrong. The letter too Timothy (your reference to 2 Timothy) are pastoral letters from Paul. They are not instructions for all Christians. They are instructions for Church leaders. Timothy was a Church leader, a successor to the Apostle...

    Infant Baptism is not given in scripture.

    Help me out with your theory. You and your friends get together and read the Bible. Using the "Bible alone" (no traditions, no institution) you and your friends then decide what the "truth" is after reading the Bible. You and your cabal of friend's "truth" ends up being different than the...
