    What do you say when you're baptizing someone?

    Which brings us to another question. You have an individual who wants to join your church. That tell you that they were immersed. When you ask them what church they were baptized in - they state - "Well, 5 years ago, Uncle Joe baptized me - but he is not a member of any church. We just...

    What do you say when you're baptizing someone?

    I'm sure they also believe only the local church as that authority - but the person doing the actual baptizing must be a a "baptized descendent" of John the Baptist!

    How easy should it be for a Baptist church to accept a new member.

    Yes, we do, but if a person comes for 3-4 months and takes communion - I would be talking to them about membership. Just as a church should review a potential member before extending the right hand of fellowship - a prospective member should check out the church before he joins

    How easy should it be for a Baptist church to accept a new member.

    UP - I agree with your statement!s However, how many churches actually do that? Some are just so happy in getting new members - they immediately extend the right hand of fellowship

    How easy should it be for a Baptist church to accept a new member.

    I was only using KJO as one example -- But lets turn that around - if you had a candidate for membership and they insisted that only the KJV be used - that ALL other versions are perverted - would you want that person to be a member of our local church. The point I'm getting at is that to one...

    How easy should it be for a Baptist church to accept a new member.

    Poll: Should Military Retirement Pay Be EXEMPT from Taxes?

    Sure we can be retrained - but first, I would have to be "un-trained" then it would only take 6 months to train me on the new SOP Sure, retired pay CAN be exempt BUT it is not. So why should retired pay be tax exempt? Now are you talking just about DoD retired pay or all pay from a private...
