    And I've explained the laws of physics to you before, sparky. Nobody walks UP into a river or lake. You have to walk DOWN into the water. Ummmm, how many diving boards have you EVER see where they dive UP into a pool, Einstein?? Not a WORD in Scripture about total immersion being "mandatory"...

    So, you couldn't find the document - could you? You see, my dim-witted friend, the document doesn't exist because the Church was started by Christ and His Apostles (Matt. 16:18). The Council of Nicaea was the Second Church Council after the Council of Jerusalem in Acts 15. Open a Bible - then...

    DOCUMENT, Einstein. Give me the name of the document . . .

    In other words, you CAN'T find a verse of Scripture that says we MUST be fully immersed. That's what I thought, Einstein. Consider yourself Scripturally-spanked . . .

    WRONG. It’s not “salvation by works”. As I have explained ad nauseam – we can’t take credit for our works because they were prepared FOR us BY GOD (Eph. 2:10). It’s salvation through cooperation with God’s grace. This is why Paul uses terms like “Sunergos” (co-workers) with God (1 Cor. 3:9)...

    It is so simple – it’s difficult for me to see how you can’t understand it. Let’s say I hired 2 people to do a job and I have a thousand dollars for each of them – guaranteed. However – ONE of them works for an hour and walks off the job - while the other one stays. The money was GUARANTEED to...

    Dead faith.

    Right off the top of my head – Matt. 7:21 puts these verses in context: Matt. 7:21 "NOT EVERYONE who says to me, 'Lord, Lord,' will enter the kingdom of heaven, but ONLY THE ONE WHO DOES THE WILL OF MY FATHER who is in heaven. I also gave you EIGHTEEN other passages that destroy the Eternal...

    Dead faith.

    One is born again – and one isn’t. One has a full, experiential knowledge (epignosis ) of Christ - and the other is simply “dabbling” in Christianity. Apples and oranges. And once again – you cherry-pick verses to make your points on the false doctrine of Eternal Security. I gave you over...

    Ummmm, THIS coming from a guy who I just caught red-handed in a couple of lies. If you can’t PROVE the manure that you claim about the Catholic Church – then you should just admit you LIED because of your anti-Catholic bias - and woeful ignorance of history . . .

    In return, perhaps I should explain something to YOU . . . The Catholic Church is NOT a “denomination”. It is, as the eminent Protestant historian J.N.D. Kelly put it, “the ecclesiastical ecclesial tree from which Protestantism splintered.” That’s where your “denominations” began – to the...

    It’s not about the Bible “contradicting” itself. It’s about reading the Scriptures in their proper CONTEXT. This is why cherry-picking verses of Scripture out of context leads to formulating UN-Biblical doctrines.

    Dead faith.

    ALL of the verses you present would be a compelling case for Eternal Security. UNFORTUNATELY for you – they are not standalone verses. There are MANY other verses, as I have presented, that illustrate that our security is CONDITIONAL on our cooperation. We are NOT secure regardless of how we...

    Dead faith.

    No – Luke 13 is about those with a “said” faith – and those with a TRUE faith. They are NOT all truly born again. Regardless – ALL of the verses I provided are warnings to the TRULY born again (Epignosis) to try to remain faithful and to NOT fall back into darkness or they will LOSE their...

    Once again – you failed to show me a verse of Scripture that says we MUST be fully immersed. You can’t find one because it doesn’t exist, Einstein. Thanks for proving my point . . .

    The DECREE, Einstein. I need the name of the Declaration, Dree, Document, etc., that “created” the Catholic Church in 325 as YOU idiotically claim. If you can’t provide one – then just admit that you LIED because you don’t know anything.

    Dead faith.

    As for John 6:47, it says that he who "believes" has eternal life. Biblical belief is NOT simple intellectual assent - but surrender to God's will. It includes: - Being baptized (Matt. 28:19-20, John 3:5, Rom. 2:29, Rom. 6:1-11, Col. 2:12-17, 1 Peter 3:21) - Picking up our cross daily to follow...

    And if you can't give me the name of a Decree - then you failed again, Einstein. The Romans were real sticklers for decrees. Man - I LOVE watching ignorant anti-Catholics dig themselves into a hole. It's a guilty pleasure . . .

    Yes, you can't find me a verse that says we must be immersed. More of your Scriptural failure . . .

    That's NOT what I asked you. I asked you "WHEN". Now you're REALLY dug a hole for yourself because you are attributing it to an actual Emperor. Can you dive me the name of the Decree?? I didn't think so . . .
