People who say that baptism does not save because the thief on the cross was not baptized fail to recognize that baptism is a stand-in for crucifixion. So the thief on the cross did not need to be baptized because he was crucified with Christ. And thus, received the real baptism.

@DineshDSouza Where Dinesh D'Souza displays before the world that he knows nothing about Christian theology. Good grief.

@TheAimAndAuthor I spilled a tall cup of coffee right after I got it yesterday. It even splashed me in the face a bit.

Confession of Sin & Absolution

[MichaelShover @MJShover]

@TheNotoriousMMA Amen!

[Conor McGregor @TheNotoriousMMA]

I believe in one God,
the Father Almighty,
Maker of heaven and earth,
of all things visible and invisible.

I believe in one Lord Jesus Christ,
the Only Begotten Son of God,
born of the Father before all ages.

God from God,
Light from Light,
true God from true God,
begotten, not made,
consubstantial with the Father;
through Him all things were made.

For us men and for our salvation
He came down from heaven,

and by the Holy Spirit
was incarnate of the Virgin Mary,
and became man.

For our sake He was crucified under Pontius Pilate,
He suffered death and was buried,
and rose again on the third day
in accordance with the Scriptures.

He ascended into heaven
and is seated at the right hand of the Father.

He will come again in glory
to judge the living and the dead,
and His kingdom will have no end.

I believe in the Holy Spirit,
the Lord, the Giver of life,
who proceeds from the Father and the Son,
who with the Father and the Son is adored and glorified,
who has spoken through the prophets.

I believe in one, holy, catholic, and apostolic Church.

I confess one Baptism
for the forgiveness of sins,

and I look forward to the resurrection of the dead
and the life of the world to come.

Amen. 🙏🏼

2 Timothy 1:10

Through His appearing, our Savior Christ Jesus, abolished death and brought life and immortality to light through the gospel.

@TheJollyBrawler It is Anarcho-tyranny in the church. Punish the good guys, reward the bad guys. There are plenty of churches like this.

Revelation 22:11

Let the evildoer still do evil, and the filthy still be filthy, and the righteous still do right, and the holy still be holy.”

Galatians 1:3-5 NKJV
[3] Grace to you and peace from God the Father and our Lord Jesus Christ, [4] who gave Himself for our sins, that He might deliver us from this present evil age, according to the will of our God and Father, [5] to whom be glory forever and ever. Amen.

"For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord." Romans 6:23

b/c of sin, you will die. But b/c of God's free gift of eternal life in Jesus you can live for ever with God. Believe in Jesus and confess you sins and receive life.

[MichaelShover @MJShover]

"For God so loved the world that He gave His only Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life." (John 3:16)

Where will you spend eternity?
Trust in Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins, and receive the gift of ternal life.

@LoganRamseySDG @TheJollyBrawler You misspelled 'Sacrament.'

[MichaelShover @MJShover]

@TheJollyBrawler The irony is so thick. We are justified by faith alone in Christ. And if you have some other view of "blood and soil" that what he allows, you are not just ifed but going to hell. It sounds like he doesn't actually believe we are justified by faith in Christ ALONE!
