It would be
impossible to understand how a person who said he was ordained in the Independent Baptist fundamentalist movement, would
even contemplate worshipping with Catholic heretics, and heretics they are.....again, the biggest whore
in religious Babylon. This is not to say, IB do not have their false gospel, for they certainly do, even though there are so many more God fearing people among them, than the religion of the pious long robe wearing men, who have for
the most part given themselves over as sexual sexual predators of young boys ~ and their boldness of calling themselves
"father" when they know
nothing of what it truly means to be a father naturally, much less spiritually.
Matthew 23:8-12
“But be not ye called Rabbi: for one is your Master,
even Christ; and
all ye are brethren. And
call no man your father upon the earth: for one is your Father, which is in heaven.
Neither be ye called masters: for one is your Master, even Christ. But he that is greatest among you shall be your servant. And whosoever shall exalt himself shall be abased; and he that shall humble himself shall be exalted.”
These proud Pharisees love to be called pope, cardinals, fathers, etc. you can have them, they are an abomination to the God of heaven, and to all righteous men and women.
You are deceiving your soul ~ you are considering a main enemy of Jesus Christ and his people ~ read Foxe's Book of Martyrs
They are no friends of Christ and his people.
Except those men and women who down through the ages have taught free justification by God's grace through the faith and obedience of Jesus Christ
alone ~ the very people you find in Foxe's book of Martyrs killed by the false rellgion of Mystery Babylon headed up by RCC/EOC.
It does not take much to know where a man's heart is, just follow what he said, and it all will come out to wise enough to see through their false profession.
Not unless you
"come home" as they call it!
Example: many years ago, before I was converted, I had a friend who was of the Catholic faith, which truly then meant nothing to me, since I was nothing but a sinner. My friend asked me to go with him and his wife to have his five month old son baptized, which I said I would. When we arrived and ready to have his son baptized into the Catholic faith, the priest look at me and asked:
"are you a Catholic", to which I replied and said.
..I am nothing, but a sinner! The self-righteous priest said: you cannot watch this and be present ~ to which I said find, I'll leave, but my friend insisted that I stay and the priest allow it. My friend btw, was just as evil as I was at time, we both ran wild. That happen about a year before I this lost sheep was found, and once I committed myself to serving God, I no longer had that friend, mutually agreed on from both sides to separate as friends.
Do not know, since I have never considered myself as a protestant,
never. I have
never protested against any truths of the scriptures ~ the Catholics want to label all protestant's who are not Catholics, but,
I do not buy into that lie. I see that you have.
Agreed
There are no example of this in the word of God.
Baptizing children not properly qualified for the ordinance
is a perversion of the gospel of Christ. All things must be done decently and in order: baptizing foolish children is wrong (
I Cor 14:40). Baptism is important, for it is the first act of Christian obedience (
Mark 16:16;
Acts 2:38;
10:48). Baptism requires repentance, which in turn requires consciousness of sins (
Matt 3:6;
Mark 1:4). Baptism is the answer of a good conscience, so we must have a conscience, sufficient knowledge of the gospel to make it good, and the ability and willingness to act conscientiously (
I Pet 3:21). John required fruits, or actions, to prove a true spirit of repentance before baptism (
Matt 3:7-9).
We will avoid and reject Roman influence that would value sacramentalism without knowledge. Baptism is not needed for eternal life, so there is no obligation or need to baptize children early. In the book of Acts
only men and women were baptized showing us that we must not push the issue with
even young folks between 6-19~if they are God's elect they will not spoil, they will be okay, baptism is a serious act of commitment which even most youth are not willing to do, they are too busy serving their lust.
I may come back later to finish~been up all night sick, so I'm going to get a little rest before seeing If I can get into to see the doctor.
