The spiritual reasoning among us is quite astonishing something to behold.

Let me ask you, if after you were to chain hoist a dying man down into a whirlpool but it was not quite deep enough and all he had sticking out of the water was the tip of his nose, not fully baptized, would that baptism still count?

There are places in the world, such as in India, that you will NEVER get baptized and would be lucky to get a glass of water poured on you.

Thank you so much for the New Year wish.

Are you are prophet? Because I already know both revival and joy are in God's plans for me this year and the church I attend.

I wish you and your family all the best as well this New Year.


I have to ask. My curiosity is getting the best of me. Do you go to church with Carp? Do you sit next to him in the pew?
I wish I could answer that online... but I'm afraid it might cause Carp to jump right out of his shoes. I don't think he knows who I am right now.

I was in revival several years ago and people were getting the HG. With this happening the pastor announced a baptismal service 4-5 weeks in the future. There was one man in particular that was so ernest..."I want to be baptized now!"

LSS..I asked the pastor what the deal was....he said there were some repairs that needed to be done and such and then this night in future was going to work best for calender. I was pretty upset. So...being the wise young evangelist I was...I took him to task asking him what he thought would be the eternity if this ernest man were killed in car accident before baptism.

Pastor told me the man WOULD go to hell. Whether the man would or not..I am not the judge, but I did tell the pastor that if the mad did go to hell, he would be right behind him because his laziness was the only thing in the way of this man's baptism.

Needless to say, the revival ended soonest and he spent months trying to get me canceled everywhere.


Just thoughts . . .

That's the way it goes sometimes. Just dare to cross them and they will seek to kill you.

A man repented in a revival at our church years ago. He asked to be baptized, but the pastor said to wait til Sunday. The man was killed on Saturday.

I'll go on record and say it. The man, I believe, went to be with the Lord, because he intended to follow the Lord in baptism. The pastor in your case will be held accountable- not because the man wasn't baptized, but 1) for not baptizing according to Christs command (Matt. 28:19) and 2, for judging the man to hell. Alot of people will have to answer for that second one.

Oh, so sorry for using the "non-oneness" verse above (in bold).

Dan when I asked you about your father being a Papist I was trying to get you to reconsider what you are saying about us. But evidently it did not come out correctly I certainly did not mean to offend or insult you I ask you to forgive me for misspeaking.
