And still you do not answer the question. What church were you baptized into? The official name. Are you ashamed to say?

And still you do not answer my question from posts 2452 and 2453. What church title do you label me? The official name. Are you ashamed to say?

What church were you baptized into?

Secondly, once again, you show you are in Scriptural error. (Will you at least 'fess up this time?) We are not baptized into a church or into an organization or into an institution or into a denomination (at least I was not).

I was baptized into a Person. A very specific Person. Or do you deny Romans 6:3? (Go ahead. Read it)

"Know ye not, that so many of us as were baptized into Jesus Christ were baptized into his death?" (Rom. 6:3)

By emphasizing mere men above Jesus Christ, you are a divider of the faith like Paul says (1 Cor. 3:3-5, 21-23). By emphasizing "denominationalism," you can't see the forest through the trees, and so you're stuck on the trees (and not even a clump of trees, but one). Thus, you can't see the forest. You can't see the whole body. The one body that Paul writes about in Romans 12:4-5; 1 Cor. 12:12-13, 20; Eph. 4:4; Col. 3:15.

Why is that mathematical reality so difficult for you to comprehend. (Paul doesn't say the "many" bodies, but the "one")

I'm not your "let's conquer & divide" type of poster. Go find another who is.

This is one of the profoundest answers to a post I've ever seen.

Cordially,
