Subject: Was the thief on the cross baptised? |
Bible Note: Bruce - Thanks for responding. I believe I get the picture. You didn't submit scriptural proof for your statements about the two "other kinds" of baptism because there isn't any. You didn't even provide definitions of these two others kinds of baptism as I requested. Could it be that you don't know enough about them to define them in language that all who run can understand -- or possibly, that there is not such thing as two other kinds of baptism? ..... Bruce, we are pretty much sola scriptura people on this forum and don't put much stock in extra-biblical references. In fact, I have no idea what "CCC 1258 and 1259" means, though I suppose I could Google it if I were all that curious, but really I'm not. Of course, I don't agree that the Bible is insufficient of itself without the authoritative interpretation of the successor of Peter. I don't believe there is or ever was any successor of Peter -- unless Peter happened to have sired children, and even so, no interpretative authority was passed down to them either. Thanks again. Let's stick with what we know and can show by Scripture to be true and trustworthy -- on this Forum, at any rate. Please do read the guideliness once again and have a good day. --Hank |
