Everything in The Book Of Revelation (of Jesus Christ) is starting to coelesce.

THIS one is the One World Church/religion.

[Campion]

Rome has recognized non-Catholic baptisms since the Donatist controversy was settled in the 4th Century. Your "Book of Revelation coelescing [sic]" has been going on for a long time.

(We probably recognize your baptism, too, if it was by immersion or pouring and your minister used the words, "Father, Son, and Holy Spirit".)

[Cronos]

THIS one is the One World Church/religion.

What are you talking about? This is recognizing that the other groups have baptised their members in the Name of the Father, Son and Holy Spirit, that's it

you want to see about the One World religion, then see consumerism...

[Cronos]

Principles mean nothing; go-along-to get-along

What are you talking about? This is recognizing that the other groups have baptised their members in the Name of the Father, Son and Holy Spirit, that's it. you think it's wrong to recognize commonalities?

If you talk between two communities, isn't it important, before talking of differences (no matter how many) to focus on what is common? For instance, between Presbyterian and Assemblies of God Pentecostal there are differences, but not in the baptismal formula -- but there is a wider difference between Presbyterians and Oneness Pentecostals who baptise only in the name of Jesus (they reject the Trinity).

Recognizing commonality is not compromise, rather it's the basis for human dialogue or even acknowledgement of differences as opposed to demonisation.
