From Article: “How do you get rid of Original Sin and obtain Sanctifying Grace?
Baptism takes away Original Sin and put Sanctifying grace in your soul.
“Unless a man be born again of water and the Holy Ghost, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God. (John 3:5)”

So does the Roman Catholic church teach that Baptism is effacacious? In other words, is someone who is baptized GUARANTEED to be saved? If the act of Baptism takes away Original Sin, I would suppose that is the case...

Makes me wonder why I have seen many people baptized in many different churches (including Roman Catholics) who now show no evidence of salvation in their lives!
