Thank you for the blessings. :) Knowing your Christian/Church history is important when one tells lies about your Church history; which happens often on this forum. Scripture tells us one must always be ready to give a reason of the hope that is in us (1 Peter 3:15). For me, thru historical...

Thank you. I guess your confusing me when you say baptism "was" symbolic leading up to the coming of Christ and then you say it "still is symbolic". What you are really saying is that baptism has always been symbolic before the coming and after the coming of Christ? Do you think the "symbolic"...

Hi Enoch, The Syriac recognize most of the Deuterocanonical books as Scripture? Does that mean you now accept the Deuterocanonical? It stands to reason and using your logic if YOU think the Syriac’s got the NT Canon right then they must have gotten the OT Canon right.....Right? Curious and...

Most on this site don’t know their own Christian history. @BreadOfLife regularly exploits that lack of knowledge that most (if not all) on this forum have. BTW....You don’t need to memorize it. You can Google it....Or use BING like me :) CM

IMO.......I don’t know that one should joke around about killing 25 million people and make a false accusation that the Knights were involved. Especially due to all the GOOD WORKS they perform as Christian men. How can Rollo the Tomato be like Einstein? Making crass jokes is NOTHING like...

I am trying to understand. What does “the type of baptism needed for the remission of sins, has changed” mean? Mary

Thank you. So, for you personally, what scripture comes down to is what YOU believe it means. You just need to find the right person to explain it better than you? And in this case Skinner, who lived 1900 years after the Apostilc and ECF’s, has a better explenation of Scripture than they do? Is...

Hi Prayer Fighter. Yes, some Protestants relied on plays, songs and other methods to get their information out. Do you know your Christian history? Curious Mary

Hi No Grace.....How is @BreadOfLife and @Rollo Tamasi a comedy team. They both seem to be passionate in their statements, facts, beliefs etc. I fail to see how that is comedy? Can you explain? Mary

Dear Scott, Please explain how a symbol washes away sin and saves you? Acts 22:16, 1 Peter 3:21, Mark 16:16 Why would Jesus instruct his Apostles to baptize if it is just a symbol? Matthew 28:19 Furthermore we are to observe all that He has commanded of us (Matthew 28:20). Are you saying...

Hmmmmm..... I think it is best you stop responding to me. You keep contradicting yourself with every post and I am tired of pointing that out. Best wishes.....Mary

Hi Rollo. Are you being serious??? Do you even know who or what the Knights of Columbus are??? How/when/why they got started??? Knights of Columbus Home You are WAY off base on this one kiddo!!! Mary

You accept that you have authority but yet reject that authority o_O If everyone has the "same relationship with God" then wouldn't everyone have the same interpretation of Scripture? If our relationship was different we would have different interpretations....Right?o_O If someone in your...

What "doctrine in the New Testament" are you speaking of? I am not familiar with it. Your interjection of a nonsensical answer into this conversation still does not answer the question: If two "local church governments" disagree with an interpretation of Scripture, which one has authority...

Dear friend. I never said you have not been consistent in all that you have posted. Consistency does not equal accuracy. You stated that the implication of the verse (2 Thessalonians 1:8) is that if one does not want to be lost in flaming fire facing God's vengeance then one must obey the...

I find it fascinating that you can't eve agree with the Scripture verse you are quoting: :( 2 Thessalonians 1:9: Who shall be punished with everlasting destruction from the presence of the Lord, and from the glory of his power mary

Son....you are confusing me even more. According to you the "group" that makes the decision has no authority since it's "not about authority"!!! However, as we know, scripture gives that group of yours the authority to treat the person as a pagan or tax collector. Sooooo how is it NOT about...

Hi Nancy. Correct me if I am wrong about this. You accept the interpretation of Scripture by Matt Skinner but you reject the interpeations of the Apostolic and ECF’s? Curious Mary

Hi, The church is a group of friends? So which person in that "group of friends" decides who is to be treated as a pagan or tax collector (Matthew 18:17)? Or does the group decide? If they group decides then wouldn't they have authority over everyone else? I don't like the special garments and...

Thank you Mr. Bass. Are you saying it is not possible that the implication of that verse could be that they shall be punished with everlasting destruction from the presence of the Lord and from the glory of his power? Mary
