“That is why Christian churches require Mormons to be Baptized.”
Every Christian church that I have been to, and it’s been three over the last 5 years, requires ALL to be baptized, not just Mormons.
“Every Christian church that I have been to, and it’s been three over the last 5 years, requires ALL to be baptized, not just Mormons.”
Not twice. Los Angeles Times, July 20, 2001
>”The Roman Catholic Church declared Thursday that Mormon converts must be rebaptized, a setback to the Mormon Church’s effort to characterize itself as a Christian denomination.
The Vatican’s Congregation for the Doctrine of Faith declared that baptisms in the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints are “not the baptism that Christ instituted.”
The ruling was a departure from the Catholic Church’s usual practice of recognizing the baptisms of converts from most other churches. The Vatican held that the Mormon view of the nature of God was too different from Catholicism’s.
It was the second time in as many years that a major Christian church had ruled that Mormon converts must be rebaptized. Last year, the United Methodist Church, the nation’s second-largest Protestant denomination, took a similar stand.”<
