Me: So Calvinists are wrong? And on a second note, apparently Jews have no place in the Church (that would certainly be news to the first Christians).

I didn't know you were going to be so nit-picky...Of course it's not a church of just Gentiles...It's for anyone...

Me: In the Bible a number of occasions result in entire households being baptized, it would be logical that infants were in the household, thoughts?

Could have been lucky and found no families with little babies but I suspect it's more likely that Jesus and the apostles followed what had been preached and when a person came forward to repent of sin, or call on the name of the Lord, little babies were not required because they couldn't, and they had no knowledge of sin anyway...

Me: LOL, very tricky there. Is it pre-trib or post-trib or somewhere in between? Or are a lot of Protestant groups wrong as you build your own little Church of Iscool?

If you think I'm building my own little church, you don't get out much...

Me: It's a very entertaining response, but ultimately allows a heck of a lot of wiggle room. Cause two people can apparently read the same scripture and come to different conclusions. How do you explain that?

I guess that's cause some folks read the gospels that were written to Jews (salvation is of the Jews) and try to combine them with the scripture that was written to the Gentile church (Paul's epistles)...Paul says you must rightly divide the word of truth...Not combine it all together...

So one person's truth isn't for another? That is a little dangerous and definitely the slippery slope. By the way, I am still interested in your response to John 6.
