    Salvation Through Baptism ???

    Hi mailmandan, What I see going on with you is that you believe someone is right in their interpretation of Scripture if you agree with their interpretation of Scripture. If you disagree with them, they are wrong. Only one of you can be twisting Scripture to their own destruction. How do...

    Salvation Through Baptism ???

    Your welcome. I find it interesting that you believe that you have discerned the infallible truth from Scripture on salvation. I wonder why God is only allowing you to be infallible on that doctrine and not others? Yes, The Church, which is the pillar and foundation of truth, explains it for...

    Salvation Through Baptism ???

    Hmmmm.....so once again you like to use the writings of men when they agree with YOU but disregard them when they disagree with you. Fascinating.... Scripture teaches that The Church is infallible (pillar and foundation of truth) not any individual man. Remember, it was fallible men that...

    Salvation Through Baptism ???

    You are right. Basil spoke of faith alone BEFORE Martin Luther. Like my daddy used to day: Two wrongs don’t make a right. Have you personally been able to discern the “infallible truth” from Scripture? Mary

    Salvation Through Baptism ???

    Since this thread is about baptism: Do you agree with Chrysostosm on baptism?

    Oh....I see! When Basil adheres to your beliefs you agree with him but when Basil disagrees with your beliefs disagree with him which makes you always right. Thank you for your time!

    Salvation Through Baptism ???

    And you did not list a set amount of “confessions with your mouth”. Why are you holding me to a higher standard then you hold yourself? Curious Mary

    Salvation Through Baptism ???

    We should take all of what Chrysostom had to say about faith instead of quoting out of context like you did: Since though he has said here, He that believes in the Son has eternal life, and in the same place something even stronger, (for he weaves his discourse not of blessings only, but of...

    Salvation Through Baptism ???

    Jerome also said this which seems to contradict what you quoted: Neither celibacy nor wedlock is of the slightest use without works, since even faith, the distinguishing mark of Christians, if it have not works, is said to be dead, and on such terms as these the virgins of Vesta or of Juno, who...

    Salvation Through Baptism ???

    Hi Mailmandan, Since you are using Basil to support your beliefs on faith alone do you use him to support your beliefs on the Eucharist in what he wrote to a Patrician Lady Caesaria [ 372 A.D.]? Curious Mary

    Salvation Through Baptism ???

    Hi tong, Oh....I get it now. Those that believe “baptism now saves you” (1 Peter 3:21) and washes away your sin (Acts 22:16, 2:38) have been using “human discernment” for 2,000 years. But those that believe baptism doesn’t save you and doesn’t wash away your sin (not in the Bible) had...

    Salvation Through Baptism ???

    Please don’t twist Scripture to your liking. It says “IF” you confess with your mouth. We are given a choice. Thank you for your time.

    Salvation Through Baptism ???

    Let’s be VERY clear here: YOU do not decide who has misinterpreted Scripture. If God has given you that authority you should not be on this forum.

    Salvation Through Baptism ???

    You have agreed that we must confess with our mouths to be saved. (Post#838) There must be a set amount of confessions with your mouth that must be accomplished in order to be saved?. If not there is not a set number, why not?
