post slander, repeatedly, knowingly and eagerly, not because they are slanderous them selves, but because they are invincibly ignorant.

Ah, this is the true meaning of Mk 5:36 (tossed around here earlier, see #155 and previous), -- be not afraid and pray for the dead, bodily as well as spiritually.

However, one who has been corrected each time cannot plead ignorance, can she?

Normal, innocent ignorance no: all who claim Christ are drawn to truth. However, the mentally incompetent or demoniacally influenced are neither normal nor innocent and will persist in their slander for as long as their illness or master bid them too.

We must pray for them and be kind, as Paul instructs; the coals heaped on their head arn't for pain but purification.

I do not plead ignorance because I have not been corrected.

We disagree, Alex. To Rome, all disagreement is slander and thus it must be shouted down.

In fact, you even pointed out in post #207 that I correctly stated the RCC catechism's view of infant baptism.

But...

Wait for it...wait for it...

We disagree!!!

Infant baptism does not confer saving grace. Infant baptism does not regenerate the fallen sinner. Our sins were forgiven at Calvary, not in the confessional booth where "another Christ" presumes to do what Christ has already done. Not with the help of a "co-redeemer" or a "dispensatrix of all grace" because there is but "one mediator between God and men, Christ Jesus."

Hebrews 10 and Ephesians 1, thank God.

"God cannot dwell in a profane place...When men introduce their inventions it immediately causes God to depart...

"Although the devil has long reigned in the papacy, yet he could not altogether extinguish God's grace; nay, a church is among them." -- John Calvin, Ezek.I:284 & Ezek. II:120
