....Catholic teaching says that children under the age of 7 cannot COMMIT any sin, but EVERYONE is born with ORIGINAL SIN!
What religion are you? I know you won't answer except to say Christian, but what kind of Church do you attend?
:::...Catholic teaching says...:::
Your assertion is ...Catholic teaching says...
My assertion is ...the Bible says...
I am going to stick with the Bible.
On Judgment Day, the Lord will open the Bible and judge both of us by our deeds. Rev 20. Only Satan will be present to tell the Lord that we are unworthy and the Lord should let Satan take care of us. No man-made doctrines. No catechisms. Just the Bible.
Will we hear the Lord say, “In the story of the Ethiopian eunuch, I gave you an example that showed baptism was immersion because they had to get into the water so the eunuch could be immersed. Philip asked for his confession as an example to you that showed that I wanted subjects to state their faith in me. The eunuch leaving in joy was because, after baptism, he now had his past sins forgiven and he was now in the Lord’s church.
In the story of Ananias visiting Saul of Tarsus, I gave an example of the importance of baptism (immersion) by showing Saul, even though he had not eaten for three days, was baptized before he ate any food.”
During his ministry on earth, the Lord condemned the Jewish leaders for promoting their “traditions of the Fathers” to a level more important than the Lord’s Law of Moses. Kind of like a lot of denominations!
Let me encourage you to test the hypothesis that the Lord’s church is the one that will be invited into heaven. You can see what the Lord’s church is like from the books of the New Testament.
