You are a baptist -- you do not baptise infants, but baptise adults -- so do you then say that those before baptism are pagans?

You know the sola scriptura crowds rules, Cronos. You can jump to that conclusion only if it is in reference to Catholics.

Sola Scriptura sola interpretura is about "I","I","I" -- no sense of community or of God.

If one Baptist says "aha -- it was written that St Ambrose was baptised as an adult it must mean that he was a pagan" -- which is ok as an initial error.

But to repeat this thrice shows the error of sola scriptura -- it then means "MY interpretation is correct, irrespective" -- even if it then means that the Baptist person concludes that all Baptists (and this is not my opinion, but the conclusion drawn from sola wmfights words) are pagan until they get baptised. That's crazytalk.
