Are you a big man?

No, I get it. If we don't obey His commandments we won't be saved. Having faith is the first step to being saved. Being baptized and keeping His commandments and the teachings of the Apostles (works) are the other steps to being saved. I believe what Scripture says: Faith without works is...

Protestant historians disagree with you: Philip Schaff -- "This ordinance [Baptism] was regarded in the ancient church as the sacrament of the new birth or regeneration, and as the solemn rite of initiation into the Christian Church, admitting to all her benefits and committing to all her...

I guess if you throw out 200 years of Christian teaching BEFORE Jerome you would be right: ST. JUSTIN MARTYR (inter A.D. 148-155) Whoever is convinced and believes that what they are taught and told by us is the truth, and professes to be able to live accordingly, is instructed to pray and to...

In post 178 it seems you are suggesting that it is necessary to obey Him and the Apostles to be saved? If it is necessary to obey them then baptism is necessary!

You feel comfortable ignoring these passages? Acts 2:38---------baptize>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>remission of sins 1 Pet 3:21--------baptism>>>>>>>>>>>>>>saves

Scripture says: Acts 5:29: But Peter and the apostles answered, “We must obey God rather than men". John 14:15: “If you love me, you will keep my commandments. 1 John 2:3: And by this we know that we have come to know him, if we keep his commandments. Luke 11:28: But he said, “Blessed...

The bible says we must obey him or else. He and the apostles says baptize and be baptized.

Hi, You said “....Man is saved by grace through faith not faith and water baptism.“ His commandment is that we must be baptized. If we disobey Him will we loose our salvation?

Thank you. You have me a bit confused. You said we are to obey what is taught in order to become saved. I agree with that. But then you use the words “after we have been saved”. Right after that you talk about “salvation by works”. So my question is: Once a person is “saved” why would...

Hi mailmandan, I think you would agree that we must keep His commandments, obey what He and the Apostles taught to be saved? Acts 5:29: But Peter and the apostles answered, “We must obey God rather than men". John 14:15: “If you love me, you will keep my commandments. 1 John 2:3: And by...

Hi, Where does Scripture say that baptism has to be done in "public"? I can't find that passage.... :( If a baptism is done in private...does it count? Curious Mary

It is necessary to obey Christ: John 3:5, Matthew 28:19 Respectfully, Mary

1 Peter 3:21

True and very well said. When we were children we feared what our parents would do to us if we disobeyed them. As children of God we fear what he will do to us if we disobey him. I think it is fair to say we don't live our life in fear.....but we fear what will happen to us if we disobey Him.

The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge; fools despise wisdom and instruction. The fear of the Lord is hatred of evil. fear him who can destroy both soul and body in hell. Let all the earth fear the Lord

Hi, I don’t think it is fair to make a blanket statement such as yours. One can easily find Protestants who left their church saying the same thing that Weber said. Keeping it real....Mary

I have deep concerns about his thoughts/ideas

Does it concern you that God taught the Christians who lived in the first century all the way thru the 21st century something opposite of your interpretation? For 2000 years everyone else is wrong but God gave YOU the truth???

Lump of clay? Hmmmm
