Do you have to be so loud?
If the Church teaches that anything is necessary for salvation, then it is, and for most of it we also have scripture that says the same thing. Baptism and Eucharist in particular are necessary for salvation, 'cause the Bible tells me so.
I think "loud" is in the eye of the beholder, mostly.
I like a variety of emphases including all caps. My quirk. If it's too annoying, feel free to skip my posts.
You have some annoying quirks, too. No biggy. It's called the human condition, last I checked.
Anything straightforwardly built plainly and directly on Scripture and practiced in good faith without fleshly embellishment and layering on of inferred, extrapolated, assumed junk . . . toward the increasing of intimacy with Jesus, Father, Spirit--is worth my applause--at least acceptance and prayerful support.
Where in the Bible does it tell you that, annalex? The bible says to believe and be baptized. Belief is the main point and baptism comes as obedience but if a person believes on his or her death bed, and isn't baptized, does that person go to hell? I think not. There isn't anywhere I know of where the eucharist is really necessary. What is necessary is putting your faith and trust in Jesus Christ. But, you've been over all this before, I'm sure.
Abraham, Moses, David, the thief on the cross, etc. didn't have baptism, the Eucharist or, as far as I can see, an organization of men claiming dispositive authority over their souls.
The aborted babies have neither baptism nor Eucharist - neither do some who are mentally or physically handicapped and others who have died without hearing the Gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ.
