    as a Baptist, I think that Abstinence from Alcohol as part of the denomination is funny. Jesus quite literally made wine as one of his miracles and only is against drunkenness.

    The wine Jesus made is not comparable to today’s wine. Wine paste mixed with/ 3 parts water was a regular beverage in Jesus’ day. The water alone was not very healthy to drink. Let the H.S. be your guide, as for me, all I desire is Jesus, Jesus, Jesus and a drink of wine would alter my focus on Jesus.

In Deut 14 it says if an Israelite wasn’t able to make it to the temple to make a sacrifice, they could sell it and buy whatever they wanted, specifically including wine and “strong drink” and have a celebration. Psalm 104 says that God causes wine to gladden the hearts of men. How do you understand these passages?

    Now may the Holy Spirit guide you to look even farther than your Baptist theological roots and find your Catholic theological roots. Even more foundational than the roots you find in your Baptist theology. The Trinity, Jesus Wholly God and Wholly Man, Jesus Son of God, Jesus materially existing vs being an image (Docetism) - these are just a few of the things that you believe but had to be fought theologically through the early Catholic Church. God bless you on your journey. As John Cardinal Newman, a staunch anti-Catholic before searching the history of Christianity prior to his conversion to Catholicism, once said, "To be deep in history is to cease to be Protestant." Blessed be God. Blessed be His Holy Name. Blessed be Jesus Christ, True God and True Man. Blessed be the name of Jesus. Blessed be His Most Sacred Heart. Blessed Be His Most Precious Blood. Blessed be the Holy Spirit, the Paraclete. Blessed be God in His Angels and in his Saints. Amen.

"Reformed" churches carry a lot of Catholic baggage with their creeds (the Nicene Creed affirms baptismal regeneration, the Chalcedonian calls Mary the "mother of God)), hierarchy, sacramentalism, infant baptism etc. They teach that children of "elect" parents, are by default "elect". no true Baptist has ever taught that you can be saved based on who your parents are. these so called "Reformed" Baptists are teaching that, so they are not real Baptists. they want to be Presbyterian so bad they cant stand it, but they cant swallow infant baptism. however, if they ever join another church, it will def be Presbyterian, and they generally will not associate with other Baptists, but have no issue fellowshipping Presbyterians. they claim their beliefs are original to the Particular Baptists but they are wrong. The London Baptist Confession, which is the confessions Particular Baptists espoused, makes it clear that the individual must have faith for themselves. in my opinion, the "Reformed" churches do believe salvation is "conditional" upon being born "in the covenant"

    It's interesting how you keep referring to Salvation can be lost as the defining characteristic of Arminianism. Arminius himself never addressed it, when the Five Articles of Remonstrance were written after he died the fifth article was one they original said they unsure on. By the Council of Dort it had become more agreed upon but even today there are people who identify as Arminian while believing in Eternal Security. Also there is evidence many early General Baptists believed in Universal Salvation and they're who Gerrard Winstanley first got it from.

    @@ReadyToHarvest the wording can be confusing. Some say that those who fall away, were "head believers" not actually being saved to begin with. Terms are tricky and depends on who is defining them. I myself, a lifelong Southern Baptist, have never heard of an SBC church that teaches you can lose genuine salvation. Some call me an Arminian for believing in general atonement, and some call me Calvinist for believing eternal security, I consider myself neither, and this is the mainstream of SBCers. If a church truly believes salvation can be lost, why would they be in the SBC rather that the Free Will Baptist Association? I (like you) have studied the history and beliefs of most denominations and churches. Did you know there are many Primitive Baptists who reject TULIP and believe in general atonement? Not all PB's are the hardshell type. Can you tell me how you came up with the number of 310 for PB churches? Is this number for hardshell churches only?

    Жыл бұрын

    Only a tiny contingent of those identified as PB teach fatalism, and they are dying fast understandably. Primitive Baptists teach that the purpose of God in eternally saving his elect is immutable, superintended by the Father, who placed his beloved elect from among fallen humanity in covenant bond with his Son, who willingly came to represent the elect perfectly in a sinless life, acceptable death, redeeming blood. The merits of that predetermined death of Christ will be vitally applied to each of the elect sometime during their lives by the monergistic work of the Holy Spirit in regeneration. Those will definitely be in heaven totally due to the love, grace, work, and sovereign purpose of the Triune Lord. While the elect, blessed objects of this redemptive work do not receive it as a result of any work, choice, or response on their parts, there are still choices abounding in their lives which do afresh their experience of salvation while living here below on Earth. Some refer to these deliverances as gospel, time, or temporal salvation. These blessings (which only the eternally saved and regenerated children can experience) are to an extent dependant on obedient choices and conscious efforts through their Spirit-given faith toward God. The greatest of these temporal deliverance (salvations) is being justified by faith under the truth of the gospel of Jesus Christ and the resultant peace we experience with God in our hearts.

    I would question the use of the term 'plagiarize', since there were no copyright laws back then. A more accurate description would be that both Augustine and Calvin saw the same truths in the Bible. Would you accuse them of plagiarizing Scripture?

The way that Calvinist pastor put it was this. Salvation is God's act, not man's. How can you lose something that isn't yours to begin with? There are too many verses that make the Arminian doctrine of losing your salvation very unbiblical.

    @@robclark3095 Read your Bible. When we are in Christ Romans 5v1 says"we *have* peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ: By whom also we have access by faith into this grace wherein we stand, and rejoice in hope of the glory of God." Salvation by god's Grace is a gift and when gifts are given they are possessions. We are in total quicksand when the message of his reconciliation given to all men was heard (2Co5v19) and received at the moment we repented (that's not our works, it's metanoia = a change of gnosis). God is omniscient and knows exactly when we change our mind now believing that He alone is efficacious to save to the uttermost. He does the saving and we receive it. Gift, gift, gift, gift, gift, gift, gift, gift.. can I spell it any other way? Calvinism places man under a debt-based performance system (do, do, do.. to keep, keep, keep, otherwise your pastor, who also sins, and calvo freinds judge you as lost). Please come out from this cult of Calvinism. If you're saved, PTL!! live in it, walk in it, thankful every day. I suggest you absorb the big picture at Grace Ambassadors in something called "Chart lesson - Romans" so you can see what God has done through the ages. This is great for kinesthetic learners too.

    Since Calvin believed in missions (his church sent numerous missionary’s to France and a couple to Brazil) and Calvin taught that repentance is a necessary result of faith, I don’t think it’s fair to call the Independent Baptists “Calvinist”. I think you could say that they accept the 5-points of Dordt on the surface level.

    You should educate yourself before making errant claims. Both Primitive Baptists and Southern Baptists believe in salvation by grace. The fundamental difference is that Southern Baptists believe in sharing the gospel with the lost and the Primitive Baptists typically preach to their churches and do not actively preach or share the gospel with unbelievers. As stated in section V of the SBC Baptist Faith and Message: “Election is the gracious purpose of God, according to which He regenerates, justifies, sanctifies, and glorifies sinners. It is consistent with the free agency of man, and comprehends all the means in connection with the end. It is the glorious display of God’s sovereign goodness, and is infinitely wise, holy, and unchangeable. It excludes boasting and promotes humility. All true believers endure to the end. Those whom God has accepted in Christ, and sanctified by His Spirit, will never fall away from the state of grace, but shall persevere to the end”.

    I used to be a southern baptist, and I assure you that they teaches that you must do the ABC (Admit, Believe, and Confess) in order to ‘obtain eternal salvation.’ It wasn’t until a Primitive Baptist who has corrected me that those are evidence that he has saved His chosen people, the elect before the foundation of the world, and not the cause. So I do know that PB teaches sovereignty by grace, but SBC teaches by works.

Let me summarize by saying there are several early sources used in modern translations with slight variations on non essential doctrines (mostly divergent spellings of names). You have no reason to doubt the reliability of any major English translation imo. The one exception is the New World Translation used by the Jehovah's Witnesses, which significantly varies from other translations in order to support their teachings (it's a mistranslation).
