Yes, by Baptism: a Baptism of Blood or a Baptism of Desire.
Really it was both.
Please remove some of these mistaken thoughts from your mind and soul.
No such things Sal ..
Not only, but according to RC theology, the man (who also railed on Christ at first) must have achieved in a few hours or less the moral perfection of character which it seems may take centuries for others to attain, in order to become good enough (and atone for sins) to enter Heaven. Salvation thru grace by merit.
Chapter and verse that shows that God instituted these "things"?
What? Not there? Then it must be "Holy Tradition" right?
"Holy Tradition" = Wholly Man-Made Lies
So... who has mistaken thoughts.... one who finds the truth that there is no such thing as a "baptism of blood" or a "baptism of desire" in God's word, or the cultist that believes they exist because some magicsterium says it does?
