I’m thinking this needs to be pinned to the top of my page. So many misunderstandings can be cleared up just taking the time to really listen to this.

Shouldn’t be a hot take: baptism with water in the name of the Holy Trinity actually saves, & scripture says that baptism is symbolic precisely zero times.

Baptismal regeneration is a creedal doctrine of Christianity. You can’t confess the Nicene Creed and reject it.

Baptism now saves you. It means… baptism now saves you. Not, “baptism doesn’t actually save you.” Pretty simple really.

Yes. Babies are born sinful & baptism washes away sin.
Should babies get baptized, based on the Bible?
A. Yes
B. No
(Hint: Acts 8:36-37, 8:12, 18:8, 10:44-48)

Baptists: literally using the arguments early pagans used against Christianity against, well, Christianity.
Just so we're clear, everyone understands and agrees that both cannibalism and drinking blood are sins according to the Bible, correct? Why then would Jesus himself claim that we must sin and literally eat his flesh and drink his blood in order to get to heaven? It's absurd!

I teach my children that they are Christians because in Holy Baptism God called them His own, forgave them all their sins, & gave them the Holy Spirit Who creates faith in them to believe this. Withholding this from them is the work of the devil.
If you tell your children they are Christians when they have not put their faith in Jesus Christ, you are lying to them, and worse, you are pointing them to Hell.

Baptists reject almost everything scripture actually says about baptism.
If you wanna baptize babies until your blue in the face, by all means help yourself. But, we baptist hold to biblical view of baptism, which means immersion not sprinkle and it’s upon confession. That’s the overall theme of Acts, believe and be baptized.

Scripture: Baptism saves and is for you and your children.
Baptists: No it’s dangerous and will send them to hell!
Remember folks, scripture trumps baptists.
Baptizing your baby is dangerous to their salvation.
But telling your kid their saved because they mumbled a prayer at 3 that they don't remember is equally dangerous to their salvation.

The sacraments are not good works you do to obey God. The sacrament of the altar isn’t just a nice time for you to remember Jesus. It is forgiveness, life, & salvation. It is God’s work of delivering salvation to you personally through His actual body & blood.

Ah yes. Because medical issues are nonexistent. So tell me, is my daughters ADHD caused by sin or lack of faith? Should she just pray more and her neurological system will be made allistic?

Babies are commanded by Christ to be baptized in the great commission. The demand that the specific word baby must be included would throw out much of the Christian faith that you yourself cling to.
“Baptize your babies.”
—Found no where in the Bible.
It is not a command of God.

I can’t understand not wanting to have the sacrament of the altar weekly. The sacrament is the height of the divine service. It is our Savior literally come down in our midst, giving Himself to us, into our very mouths, for the forgiveness of our sins

I’d choose the opposite without hesitation. Better to have the liturgy and the true Body and Blood of Christ than reject the very means Christ has given us for our salvation.
I would sooner be a megachurch evangelical who takes Communion annually then a papist

At some point perhaps you have to consider if maybe it’s just Christianity that you disagree with?
If the Papists and Orthodox agree with your view on baptism, maybe you're not as Reformed as you think.

The Eucharist saves.
These are the same, not competing doctrines.

Funny, the scriptures are what lead me away from Baptist/Reformed(sorry Big R bros) theology. No I’m still not Roman Catholic, but the scriptures did lead me to embrace Evangelical Catholicism, & I have more in common with RC than my old theologies.
Want to know the
#1
reason why people leave the Catholic church?
They start reading their Bibles.
They end up realizing that the main beliefs of Catholicism either contradict the Bible, or are found nowhere in the Bible.

Infant baptism is a direct implication of this passage. Christ says that adults must become as children, not children must become adults.

Christ not only loves everyone, He died & rose again for everyone, & gives His forgiveness freely to everyone through Word & Sacrament.
Teaching that Jesus loves everyone is ridiculously destructive.

I’m Lutheran, so I unapologetically confess that the sacraments save, the necessity of baptism, etc, as did Luther.
So with that out in the open, am I(and Luther) also not Christians since these things were clearly labeled as reasons Rome is supposedly not Christian?

Go to church tomorrow. Confess & receive absolution. Remember your baptism. Hear the Word. Kneel at God’s altar & receive Christ’s true body & blood for the forgiveness of your sins. Then go in peace, serve the Lord.

This is what happens when human logic and reason govern your theology instead of scripture. You end up with the most depressing theology on the planet.
If Christ died for the whole world, then the whole world would be saved.
However, the whole world will not be saved, and thus, Christ did not die for the whole world.
Then for whom did Christ die?
All who have truly believed in Him.
John 3:16, 36.
