Salvation Army and Quakers do not baptize. The more important question is which churches do not baptize so that we may have the remission of sins? In other words, getting wet as a outward sign is not baptism but simply a man-made tradition. Matthew 15:3 Jesus replied, “And why do you break...

To you also.

Agreed. Certainly not! Are you not aware of Matthew 22:14? “For many are invited, but few are chosen.” Are you not aware of Matthew 7:13-14? “Enter through the narrow gate. For wide is the gate and broad is the road that leads to destruction, and many enter through it. 14 But small is the...

You are simply talking in circles. Can you not see this? Is your desire to share this based on a personal experience or the Word of God? What will I have to "experience" to know that I am knowing God more intimately? If I am correct, you present yourself as one of the chosen few for salvation...

Wrong. What you consider to be "your experience" is not validation. This is a classic example of appealing to esoteric knowledge and this will be your undoing. I live by the written Word of God, it is sufficient. You should too.

So they are being faithful to their rebellious nature??? Is this what you are saying?

Of course "those who truly possess eternal life" have eternal life because their name is written in the Book of Life. This is a meaningless word salad. You are simply asserting or claiming a relationship based on your own understanding. Our experiences do not prove a relationship exist. In...

It seems you have a theology based on generalities. Nothing you have written can negate Matthew 7:22. According to your reasoning if someone asserts that they are in the Book of Life then they must be. Am I correct? What is sad is that your ditch is so deep you can not fathom the possibility...

Here is the verse: 1 John 5:13 New International Version I write these things to you who believe in the name of the Son of God so that you may know that you have eternal life. 1. This verse does not even mention the Book of Life. 2. The verse is not written as a personal letter such as...

Why?

Well said. Slaves can be faithful or rebellious.

Of course not. No one knows who is or is not personally listed in the Book of Life. Any assertion otherwise would be either esoteric or arrogant.

"They" as in ourselves personally or "they" as in Christians in general?

Again, for what purpose?

In other words, those of the self-proclaimed chosen few. Wait...let me guess...you know you are in the Book of Life. Am I right? Such assertions are baseless.

Jeremiah 17:10 New International Version 10 “I the Lord search the heart and examine the mind, to reward each person according to their conduct, according to what their deeds deserve.” There is no reason to "search" the heart if all are born corrupt.

We are not born cursed by God with a guilty or corrupt nature and this is certainly what you are implying. James 1:14-15 New American Standard Bible But each one is tempted when he is carried away and enticed by his own lust. 15 Then when lust has conceived, it gives birth to sin; and sin...

How about inherited or imputed? What difference does it make? What is your point, that we suffer because God willed us to be under Adam's (not Eve's) sin? Is it not God's will for us to be subject to our own nature and not the nature of another? Psalm 14:3 New International Version All have...

"Stand"??? Do you mean the effects transfer to Eve and their children? If it is the will of God for Adam's sin (not Eve's) to be transferred to his children why is Adam guilty of our sin nature?

If you are not going to answer the question, simply don't reply.
