Here is a link to one of the best Baptist ministry found in the church today. The Baptist site is currently debating Roman Catholicism with Biblical Christianity.
Here is a link the Southern Baptist Convention which is the largest protestant denomination in the United States. The Southern Baptist Convention seminary has returned to their Calvinist roots, producing godly Pastors with Calvinist convictions (firmly rooted in the Scriptures). - BT...
I edited my Thread describing the Eucharist with a post to the Council of Trent on the sacraments. This is official dogma that all Roman Catholics have bee accept as part of your faith, correct? I prefer finding official teachings from Rome as compared to asking Roman Catholic laity. Because at...
Actually, historical Protestantism and 21st century protestant biblical churches still consider the official Roman Catholic position of communion to be heresy. All you need to do is study official protestant confessions, catechisms, and various Baptist statement of faith. I would suggest by...
Victor,
What are you talking about? Katy is Roman Catholic considering converting to Baptist Protestantism. Do you have issues that I described Roman Catholicism is salvation through the sacraments? Do you have an issue how I described the Eucharist according to the official Roman Catholic...
Hi katy,
Communion was commanded by Jesus as revealed in the Bible. We believe there are two sacraments or ordinance found in the Bible: communion and baptism. Protestants believe in various views of communion: consubstantiation - Lutheran, memorial- Baptist, Reformed view –means of...
The Mormom Jesus images and painitng are very distinct. It appears the images came from a Roman Catholic website. Is this correct? If so, does that concern you within the context of the LDS faith? There are other photos within the link, regarding Mary, etc. - BT
Hi Bruce,
I think we need to determine what books make-up the Jewish Bible (Torah). Thereafter, we need to examine the entire canon of the Torah to come up with a conclusion within the authority of the Jewish Bible. The book Ezekiel may not even be part of the Torah. - BT

Hi Mike,
Thank you for sharing your personal response. In Biblical Christianity, God the Holy Spirit illuminates Scripture to understand truth. Therefore, Sola Scriptura cannot be seperated from the person and work of the Holy Spirit. Should we get the mod team to make a ruling about the...
Hi Beckysoup,
It is not intention to drag us away from the 13 Articles of Faith of the LDS Church. However, it seems the 13 Articles of Faith is needed to support the Restoration of Truth supporting my last post. This is the essential claim of the LDS Church; the restoration is linked together...

I don't mean to cause additional tension between the LDS members and myself. But from a protestant Christian perspective, these pictures of Jesus are very consistent with other pictures and images from other LDS sources. This is the LDS image of Jesus. We can talk about signs and wonders in the...
Hey RLTW, and TIC,
The claim of baptismal regeneration appears to be a common theme in several of the on-going Threads. The Roman Catholic Church and “the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints teach baptismal regeneration, the need of water baptism is necessary for salvation.

Please consider the conversion of Lydia and the jailer. God granted Lydia a new heart (regeneration/new birth) prior to Lydia’s ability to believe in Christ and the good news.
The jailer asked Paul, what must I do to be saved? Paul and Silas responded with "Believe in the Lord Jesus...
