Calvin was never born again. He held to some of the tenets of the Catholic faith, one being infant baptism. God showed me that Calvinism is wrong and I will never accept it.

The “Catholic faith” also teaches that Jesus was the eternal son of God, the savior of the world. Calvin taught that as well. Does that mean that everyone who holds anything in common with the “Catholic faith” cannot possibly be born again?

This is the catholic faith, which except a man believe faithfully he cannot be saved.”

< sarcasm>Tut tut tut. Don't you know there are good Christian people who don't accept all that Nicene/Athanasean/Apostles Creed stuff??? Boo to the evil Constantine! After all, the Trinity isn't a core doctrine to break fellowship over.< /sarcasm>

Catholics believe you have to be saved through the Roman Catholic Church. It is one of their sacraments. I believe we can be saved without the RCC. I stand on believing that you are saved when you believe and receive Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior.
