Uh huh. Now, HOW and WHEN do you think this Baptism of the Spirit occurs, Einstein??

And THIS is why Protestant cherry-picking leads to so much confusion - to the point of tens of thousands of perpetually-splintering sects that ALL teach different doctrines while ALL claiming that the Holy Spirit "guided" them . . . When you take ALL of the passages about Baptism and read them...

Yes, you keep making asinine comments like this - but so far, you have FAILED to produce any evidence . . .

It's common in the Catholic Church. Not even sure what the "Roman" Church is . . .

And Jesus (Mark. 16:16) and Peter (1 Pet. 3:21) and Paul (Col. 2:11-12) would DISAGREE with you . . .

And it's precisely this kind of "absolutist" mentality that has cause so much confusion within Protestantism. The refusal to understand or accept the reality polyvalent symbolism is where to run into dead-ends. Sorry to use such a big word but "polyvalent" simply means that a symbol has...

I don't know how many times I need to post verses about the symbolism of the Water CLEANSING us from our iniquities. It was prophesied in Ezek 36:25-27. Whereas Moses sprinkled an animal's blood on the people, we are symbolically washed with water in Baptism. This is the purity of Christ...

What's "Roman" doctrine? Can you explain?? And the ONLY reason the pictures bother you is because they sink your idiotic argument . . .

It ALWAYS cracks me up when anti-Catholics like YOU become "indignant" when they are exposed by a Catholic. I'm not "rude" - I simply won't allow you to get away with your manure-slinging . . . And that is simply another generic attack. EVIDENCE, please. Like the old saying goes - put up or...

His Baptism was the PROTOTYPE - just as His Resurrection was. The first 3 Chapters of John's Gospel are literally DRENCHED with the transforming waters of Baptism. Chapter 1 - Jesus is Baptized and the Holy Spirit appears. Chapter 2 - At the Wedding at Cana, Jesus transform water into wine in...

Actually - that's a LIE. NOTHING in this passage states that it is talking about Baptism of the Spirit. It is simply talking about "Baptism." YOU are again, adding to Scripture what is NOT there . . .

It DOESN'T mean amniotic fluid. Nicodemus was asking about how to be REBORN - not born. If you want the answer, go just a couple of chapters earlier to the Baptism of Christ. in John 1. He was Baptized with WATER - and the HOLY SPIRIT showed up n the form of a dove. The prophecy regarding...

HOW so? Was God NOT pleased with the ornate Temple?? Are you actually going to explain this time - or is this just another one of your cowardly hit-and-run posts??

What an abominable mockery of the Sacrament of Baptism. According to Christ Himself - Baptism is a bit more efficacious than a rancher branding a cow . . . John 3:5 Jesus answered, “Amen, amen, I say to you, no one can enter the kingdom of God without being born of water and Spirit. Paul...

No - I just refuse to allow YOU to confuse the issue . . .

More idiotic drivel . . . The Mitre is designed to emulate the ancient Christian symbol for Christ - which is the FISH (Ichthys) - and is STILL in use to this day. Good grief - do your homework Lady . . .

Noted. As I pointed out earlier - God disagrees with you (2 Chron. 7:1, Mark 14:6-9).

We were talking about obedience to His Authority. He gave complete Authority to His Church, as I pointed out in the verses in post #307 . . .

Your response was that you surrendered to His Authority. I said that I did the same. The Bible explicitly states that He gave supreme earthly Authority to His Church . . . Matt 16:18-19 And so I say to you, you are Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church, and the gates of the...

Your response was to tzcho2's post against the Catholic Church. Naturally, I would conclude that your agreement with his post was with ALL of it.
