    I appreciate the discussion and your use of Scripture to validate your position even though I may disagree. I think, however, Paul’s...

    A couple of thoughts I’d like to share: I think this is a drastic overstatement/reaction to my comment. The very fact that I am...

    I never said the “chain” was the gospel. I said that the purpose of his binding was so that he could not ”deceive the nations.” The...

    And who are you to judge that? To dismiss someone who has spent countless hours studying the Bible and the history of the church and...

    Look, you can post til your blue in the face, but the fact of the matter is NO reader of the Bible ever had the notion that Jesus would...

    I agree that in these instances, this was the case. However, in these scenarios, we see something very specific happening, in...

    You know, you can disagree without being disagreeable. How about we look at THE WORD OF GOD and what it says about baptism so we can...
