Zone1 Where does it say in the Bible only adults can be baptized?

And you still won't admit that this one God you believe in created the universe. How did the universe get here? Is it coequal to your one God?

Obviously, thinking is not your strong suit. Have you ever considered tap dancing for nickels?

 

[hobelim]

You've never answered the question and still haven't.

Did this one God that you speak of create the universe? Yes or no.

Yes, I have answered this question many times.

I tell you what. You tell me if it is a violation of Divine law to set aside the law of God to worship the lifeless work of human hands for spiritual life and I'll tell you about the beginning of the universe which is not what the story of the creation of heaven and earth in genesis is about.

So, is a violation of Divine law to worship the lifeless work of human hands for spiritual life?

Yes or no.

And you still haven't answered it. The universe popping into existence freaks atheists out.

your popcorn theory for the universe from nothing is absurd.

your popcorn theory for the universe from nothing is absurd.

It's called the big bang and it's your boomerang theory that is absurd.

mine is testable, popcorn from nothing creating the universe is no more than a cartoon for the illiterate.

You don't even have a link let alone it be testable. You know nothing about science.

 

[Clyde 154]

Jesus Himself establishes the precedent. At the age of "12" Jesus amazed everyone in the temple with His knowledge of scriptures as He questioned those in the temple for 3 days........at the age of 12 Jesus was already about doing The business of His Father (Luke 2:42-52)........yet, Jesus was not Baptized until He was approximately in His early 30s. (Matthew 3:13-17)

As followers of the Christ we are commanded to ".......not think or reason beyond that which is written........" -- 1 Cor. 4:6

On the flip side of this coin........SHOW US ONE EXAMPLE OF AN INFANT BEING BAPTIZED within the content of the Holy Scriptures. 1 One, Uno..........

Present the Book, Chapter and Verse THAT IS WRITTEN. If its not in the holy scriptures........its man made dogma.

Put yourself in Pagan Rome - 300 AD....are you ready.....we had guys like this screaming "ARE YOU ENTERTAINED!!!" in the middle of the Roman Colleseum..

Seriously? Have you never been a target of persecution? Never felt a billy club? Never been falsely accused, unjustly arrested, entertainment for demons? Where were you in the 60's and 70's? Were you a good little altar boy? A tender and supple little lad ripe for defilement by Rome?

Copra sanctum!

Wake up! You are living in a Roman wilderness right now and have been for your entire life. You just aren't any threat. Rome has used "the power of death" consequent to defying Divine law to render your mind useless. If you had faith in Jesus you'd get out of your deathbed, stand up and walk upright like a man who reflects the image and likeness of a Holy (separate) God, my God.

And willingly suffer the consequences, like Jesus, who said what would happen to "the faithful".

Like I said, ominous storm clouds are gathering. So its time to ask, What would Jesus do?
Everyone dies, so either you will die fighting evil or perpetuating it. Prove your faith. Coward.

While you're looking for your balls I'll take a nap on a little boat in the middle of the raging sea, lol

If you start shitting in your diapers, don't worry, I'll "appear" when they least expect it.

Brace yourself sheila. You are about to be "baptized" by the Holy Spirit with fire from the sky.

It's not violation it's a command from God.

Your turn. I'm not asking about Genesis. I am asking you if God created the universe. Which you won't answer.

 

[hobelim]

It's not violation it's a command from God.

Its a command of God to defy the first command? Really? Are you really that stupid? Damn. WTF Maybe you didn't realize it but silly me was expecting the truth; לֹא יִהְיֶה לְךָ אֱלֹהִים אֲחֵרִים עַל פָּנָי

"he will convince THEM of Divine Judgment by showing that the prince of this world stands condemned." Consider it already done, this prophecy fulfilled. THEM are completely convinced

See Genesis 3:14

 

[hobelim]

yet, Jesus was not Baptized until He was approximately in His early 30s

Right, Jesus was baptized as a token of repentance for the forgiveness of sins.

You might want to ruminate on what Jesus was doing for the missing 18 years of his life like intelligent people were wondering what was on the missing 18 minutes of the Nixon tapes.

Jesus hinted that he got a job feeding garbage to swine in the parable of the prodigal son. He was "without sin" only after he stopped sinning. When are you going to get around to doing it?

When are you going to stop feeding garbage to swine and bear fruit worthy of repentance??

Why should I answer any of your deflections if you are going to answer my question with a lie?

liar.

"This, he told me, is the curse which goes out over the whole land; for by the writing on one side every thief shall be swept away, and by the writing on the other side every perjurer shall be swept clean away. I have sent it out, say the Lord God of Hosts, and it shall enter the house of the thief and the house of the man who has perjured himself in my name. It shall stay inside that house and demolish it, timbers, and stones, and all."

"And as soon as Judas received the bread, Satan entered him"

It's not a deflection. You're an atheist. You'll never say God created the universe. Ever.

I am not an atheist. I just do not believe in your imaginary almighty, yet edible, triune mangod.

I see you violate the Divine commands. I hear you perjure yourself in the name of God as you desecrate the teachings of Jesus, The Actual Body of Christ, and hear you screaming in hell.

I have no choice but to believe in MY GOD who has no visible shape or material form, has no equal, never became a Jewish man only to abolish his own laws, say nutty things, perform reality defying "miracles" to be a perfect human sacrifice to himself so that believers who celebrate his death can be assholes and sin with impunity for life because he loved the roman world so much.

Sucker.
