Starting today August 7th, 2024, in order to post in the Married Couples, Courting Couples, or Singles forums, you will not be allowed to post if you have your Marital status designated as private. Announcements will be made in the respective forums as well but please note that if yours is currently listed as Private, you will need to submit a ticket in the Support Area to have yours changed.
I'll have to think about it, as the old saying goesThey can't do that or they break the CF rules.
Flaming and Goading
Harassment
- Please treat all members with respect and courtesy through civil dialogue.
- Do not personally attack (insult, belittle, mock, ridicule) other members or groups of members on CF. Address only the content of the post and not the poster.
- NO Goading. This includes images, cartoons, or smileys clearly meant to goad. Quoting and then editing another members post to change the original meaning, commonly referred to as "fixed it for you" (FIFY), is considered goading.
- Offensive derogatory nicknames and egregious inflammatory comments about public figures may be considered goading.
- Stating or implying that another Christian member, or group of members, are not Christian is not allowed.
- If you are flamed, do not respond in-kind. Alert staff to the situation by utilizing the report button.
We could report them and they could face account banning.
- Be considerate and do not make another member's experience on this site miserable. This includes making false accusations or persistently attacking them in the open forums.
- Respect another member's request to cease personal contact.
No I think it would have to be invalid on the account that the parents hearts of this child was in the wrong place.I'm not sure. I've not seen a child baptism quite like that. Off hand, I wouldn't say it's invalid.
A person can come to faith later in life, even being raised in a non-Christian home. Being baptized as a child doesn't guarantee that, but can be a seed of faith.No I think it would have to be invalid on the account that the parents hearts of this child was in the wrong place.
I only ask this questions, because of the pressure that was applied to me by a old Christian friend. Who thought I was not a full Christian without being baptized. But then some say yes it's valid some say no.A person can come to faith later in life, even being raised in a non-Christian home.

Do you think I have attacked your belief, or any others? You ask a lot of questions, and I have only tried to help. Sometimes these conversations are hard, but you must remain diligent to seeking for the truth. If you weren't, I don't think you would be here.Sorry I've learned the hard way, that the religious will mock and destroy other people's personal belief's for their agenda. Such as the Native Indians in America, and the Aboriginals in Australia.
So I think ill stop here, before we all get into a flame war.

Well who is right, should I have been re baptised?
You mean other peoples feet?Nah, you just need to wash your feet!
I'm not getting you, my feet are whisper clean.Your own feet.
Ok.I wouldn't consider the Mormon baptism valid.
Except for a minority of Protestant Christians who think baptism is only a symbol and is performed by a new believer strictly as obedience to Christ's command, there is no such thing as a re-baptism. Your "old friend" may have been of that persuasion, however. But most Christians believe--and most churches teach--that baptism is indelible. You might be baptized, fall away, come back to the faith...but you were still baptized.I only ask this questions, because of the pressure that was applied to me by a old Christian friend.

No the Mormon baptism is not valid because in the Bible it is faith alone in Jesus Christ that saves us, while the Mormon church believes in salvation through Christ 'after all we can do' to obtain salvation through works, which is not Christian.I was baptised when I was 2 by my traditionalist parents, then again at the Mormon Church when I was older.
Firstly, why do parents who are not Christian follow hollow tradition?
Secondly, is my Mormon baptism valid? I don't think so.
It's ok, you can go there.No the Mormon baptism is not valid because in the Bible it is faith alone in Jesus Christ that saves us, while the Mormon church believes in salvation through Christ 'after all we can do' to obtain salvation through works, which is not Christian.
There are a few other beliefs, such as that the Father is not Spirit and lives on a planet some where with a body, but I won't go there unless you want th other reasons.
Total Re-BaptismMormon baptisms are not considered valid in most mainline churches or conservative Protestant churches, because Mormons do not confess one God existing in three persons. A person who was baptized only in a Mormon church would have to be "re-baptized" if they were going to join a Catholic or mainline Protestant church.
Secondly, is my Mormon baptism valid? I don't think so.
