@Cldddy@catholicdads_ Well yes and no. We offer it in the sense that we are participating in the mass, however we do not hold ministerial authority to celebrate as the priest does. Essentially we offer the sacrifice internally whereas the priest possessed the authority to offer it ministerially.
@Cldddy@catholicdads_ The posture is reserved only for the priests and not the laity. It's the posture taken when sacrifice is offered and as the laity we cannot offer the sacrifice.
@AndrewsBob123@evilhumanheart@BishopJaxi The book of Acts uses it in a descriptive and not a prescriptive manner. It differentiates the baptism of Christ from other baptisms. You can also see in the didache, which is older than most of the new testament books, that the Christians baptized using the the Trinitarian form
@SoundXdoctrine@brokenbose@TrevorSheatz But they did not have a set canon. They did not agree on what was or wasn’t scripture. Different Jewish schools had different canons.
