hmm, I don't know how to answer this one. I have never been in a position to have to worry about it. I think the key is to find someone who would never cheat on you.Jesuspickedmeup said:
Hmm, this is a tough one. One very controversial issue is the role of women. In some places they have prominent positions and they are supported and in some areas they seem to be placed in non-prominent positions. This is a very controversial issue that is a dividing issue in Christianity. It is also an issue used to keep women down in some parts of society.heavensangelwv said:
No I do Not. If one can be baptised I think one should be, but baptism has nothing to do with getting you to heaven. This is an issue where I strongly agree with my denomination. We have three forms of baptism. Obviously full submersion is preferable, but not always available to all. I also believe in sprinkling and partial submersion for people who require it. I am strongly opposed to the idea of which some denominations have in which if you want to be a member of their church you have to be baptised by their denomination even if you have been baptised by another denomination in the past. (This is the practice of multiple denominations - thankfully not the United Methodist Church where we believe that we are NOT the only ones going to heaven and we believe that if you have been saved then you don't have any need to be rebaptised just so you can join our church.)
I use the KJV about 75% of the time. It is the version I have grown up with and as a good Anglophile it is the version I feel most comfortable with.
No I do not. People can backslide. Another wonderful part of my denomination. I strongly disagree with churches that believe once in grace always in grace. Thats like giving someone a free pass at life. Christians have responsibilities and duties that they must perform.
Acts 2:38-39 - Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptised every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost. For the promise is unto you, and to your children, and to all that are afar off, even as many as the Lord our God shall call. When Christ comes into our life WE ARE SAVED. For God so loved the world that he sent his only begotten son, that whosoever beliefeth in him shall not perish, but have everlasting life. - John 3:16. Matthew 10:22 - And ye shall be hated of all men for my name's sake: but he that endureth to the end shall be saved. - Enduring to the end is not a way to be saved but the evidence that you are really committed to Jesus. Persistence is not a means to earn salvation, but the by-product of a truly devoted life.
