No one is more compassionate than God. He said you must be born again.

Re: ADMIN Announcement (Renda and Timmy)

"born again" now there is a loaded phrase, that has become meaningless in the repetition, imo. This unfortunately now translates into saying some words in a church, and attempting to accept Christ by mouth. This amounts to mocking God, i think.

Re: ADMIN Announcement (Renda and Timmy)

yes yes, let's all bow to the definition of those verses that we have been given, and exclude anyone who interprets them differently, by all means. It is the Christian way, after all.

Re: ADMIN Announcement (Renda and Timmy)

"Repent, and be baptized 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."

ok, repentance includes "penance," so I'll pass from jump street, ty, not following the RCC there; i don't do Easter, either, tyvm. So, we're done; your premise is twisted, and nothing good can proceed from it. Repent is a horrible, enslaving interpretation there, and we have not gotten past the first word.

i found a much better translation, and i suggest you question yours.

Re: ADMIN Announcement (Renda and Timmy)

John, Jesus, Peter, Paul preached repentance. I am in good company. Repentance and penance is not the same.
