Subject: Baptism, Trinity, and Teachers? |
Bible Note: Greetings in Jesus' Name Hank! Yes, these comments helped clarify the issue for me. I had negelected to add that along with this denomination's statement of faith, baptism is a requirement for church membership. Not that I have a problem with this, but coupling it with their doctrinal position about baptism it has raised a "red flag" for me. As I tried to ferret out what you have provided from the thread, it became clear that I needed to send my query to specific participants. I respect your committment to Scripture. Thanks for the response! Blessings to you and yours today! Mommapbs PS: About growing whiskers . . .at least I TRIED to search before I posted!!! |
