Here is the London Baptist Confession... Chapter 29: Of Baptism 1._____ Baptism is an ordinance of the New Testament, ordained by Jesus Christ, to be unto the party baptized, a sign of his fellowship with him, in his death and resurrection; of his being engrafted into him; of remission...

The Forgotten Trinity by James White.

Depends on the method involved... Some methods basically destroy the fertilized egg. This is, as has already been said, an early form of abortion. Scripture definitely condemns that. Other methods simply delay ovulation thus preventing conception from taking place. No abortion there. No...

Methods of baptism vary for a variety of reasons. Baptists believe in immersion for the reasons already stated. There is no overly direct interpretation given in Scripture for either immersion or sprinkling though I believe the meaning behind the Greek favors immersion. Baptists also do not...

I would suspect that "C" is the correct answer from the teacher's perspective. I think you did the right thing. This question does not deserve an answer.

I suspect that is partially because JI Packer was the Theological Editor for the ESVSB and also had a hand in the ESV RSB. There are likely other reasons though...

There are only two "Reformed" Study Bibles that I am aware of and both have been mentioned: 1) ESV Reformation Study Bible (formerly NKJV) 2) NIV Spirit of the Reformation Study Bible I have copies of both and they are quite good. However if we extend this to Study Bibles friendly to...

I occassionaly use the KJV but more for reading the elegant language than serious study. I have studied the issues at length and am convinced that the modern translations are created from more accurate texts. However, I do appreciate the KJV for its endurance as a translation and the inherent...

I have a copy of it. In fact, I watched for this one when it came out. It is a good, solid translation. I have found no issue with anything in it. The philosophy behind the translation is not as formal as the ESV or NASB but not as dynamic as the NIV or NLT. The only complaint I have had...

Nonfiction: The Truth War by John MacArthur. It's been a great read and I am almost finished with it. Anyone who wants to learn how to engage the Emerging Church movement should read this book. Fiction: The Binding of the Blade series by LB Graham. A great Christian based fantasy setting. It...

Not a problem. I would vote no regardless.

I never said anything of the sort. I was merely pointing out one reason.

Your convictions regarding the second coming have no bearing on your salvation. Apart from the real return of the Lord as Tim articulated...

I always have one when I have my PDA. Beyond that I don't take one every place I go. (Like to the store or the restaurant)

Since prostitution is illegal in most states I would believe th answer would have to be no. Unless you would wish to allow other ongoing offenders to adopt...

I think I'm too much of a cynic to believe that...

I still miss Lindsay Wagner... I doubt there is an answer to your question which would be anything more than speculation. One would say the brain, others would offer some percentage. However, given the testimony of a couple of very Godly believers (Joni Erikson Tada) I would say that our...

Congratulations on your baby. Prepare for a huge change. :) Are you asking what kind of church you should go to? I am sorry but church will mean nothing until you believe the gospel. Going to church does not make you a Christian. Repenting and placing faith in Christ for the forgiveness of...

I have never heard it expressed that way. The Bible teaches about a new Heaven and new earth after judgement but I have never heard of what you say.

The NIV is about as dynamic as I would ever recommned. However I believe the ESV to be quite readable while still being faithful to the original languages. Failing that you should check out the HCSB. It is another good "middle-ground" translation/
