Baptist versus non-Baptist.
Exactly what is Baptist doctrine
KJVO vs - Non KJO
there are dozens of difference
Some are considered (by at least one party) doctrine
others may just be preference
Most, but not all believe in eternal security
Most but not all say the the gifts of tongues and healing ended with the disciple
Of course one of the biggest difference is C vs A
Separation or the degree thereof keeps many Baptists separate
I do agree there has been an unbroken line of churches throughout history -
who adhered to Bible principals. But I would not be a bit surprised that very few of them
would resemble Baptist churches of today.
closed vs open communion
How soon to baptize after salvation
how long should a mans hair be?
Expositor vs. Textual vs Topical Preaching
With well over 100 baptist denominations
(yes, I know what some say about denominations -
but keep in mind - there are two basic definitions of denomination)

Boils down to one thing- interpretation
I’m not C nor A.
I believe what I read in Scripture.
Ok. By the way, I appreciate there’s a Christian site on this tapatalk thing.
Except I don’t care for Alan’s cut and paste cookie-cutter posts. I prefer people to use their own thoughts/words from Scripture only, not Calvin’s opinions.
Who will be saved/lost was determined from the beginning and no one can change it, right? Not even God, right? So it DOES NOT MATTER, since it’s SET IN STONE.
Nothing has ever caused Christianity more harm than Calvinism. It’s divided Christians 500+ years and y’all STILL won’t drop it and just teach the Bible, John 3:16.
Just thinking...if everbody posted to my preferences . Ah....what a wonderful world.Ok. By the way, I appreciate there’s a Christian site on this tapatalk thing.

Doesn’t matter. Third Article of Westminster Confession. It was all done at Creation, even this post. Yes, it is exactly fatalism; no free will ; salvation, damnation, both predetermined, no need to even think about it; everyone is an actor on a stage speaking the lines written for them many millennia ago.
You wasted your cut and paste if you think I’ll read one word of your propaganda. I was raised in abject Calvinism and rejected it when Christ saved me per John 1 and John 3. I trust Christ, not Calvin.

Doesn’t matter. Predetermined. No one has a choice (per Calvin). Nothing matters.
Having God's knowledge of good and evil. The cause of our sinful nature in being finite man do to that knowledge of evil. Didn't cause inability.. . . using a mind that has been affected by The Fall of Adam.
You don't get that from The Book and/ or "Calvin".
Only in your, "reasoning",
using a mind that has been affected by The Fall of Adam.
Wherefore they who are elected being fallen in Adam, are redeemed by Christ;
n are effectually called unto faith in Christ by his Spirit working in due season; are justified, adopted, sanctified,
o and kept by his power through faith unto salvation.
p Neither are any other redeemed by Christ, effectually called, justified, adopted, sanctified, and saved, but the elect only.
VII. The rest of mankind, God was pleased, according to the unsearchable counsel of his own will, whereby he extendeth or withholdeth mercy as he pleaseth, for the glory of his sovereign power over his creatures, to pass by, and to ordain them to dishonour and wrath for their sin, to the praise of his glorious justice.
ordain them to dishonour and wrath for their sin
that men attending the will of God revealed in his word, and yielding obedience thereunto, may, from the certainty of their effectual vocation, be assured of their eternal election.
