    That is all you have to your faith when asked?
    How did you attain authority to expect change in others?

    For all your Baptismic efforts, in your thinking here you show no reference to your Savior and Lord Jesus Christ. Cannot speak gracefully?

    Sorry, I am not quite sure what you are asking.

    As do Women, you get distracted onto off topic issues. Why is that?

    1.) He called the Greek Syrophoenician Woman a "dog."

    2.) He called the Pharisees "fools" rather than helping them.

    3.) He judged His own home town fellow Jews for future things they had neither conceived nor done.

    4.) He called Peter "Satan" for making a mistake.

    5.) He spoke against His Mother at every opportunity, such as saying, "Woman? What have I to do with you?"

    6.) He criticized for all the World to read the attempted hospitality of Martha.

    Are you aware of how rude Jesus was, as He Cimmands you to "follow" Him?

    So, if that is how you feel about this Jesus, what is your excuse for following Jesus as the Christ?

    You are saying "feelings" are part of this topic? Did your mother raise you?

    Give 5 of Jesus' Commands you routinely follow other than baptism. Then you may speak of following Him.

    No. But what you said, suggested to me you did. So on that point, of "feelings," I stand corrected. For you, it is not a matter of feelings. And neither is it for me.
    Yes. But my Christianity was a conversion appart from my mom. Other than she allowed me to visit that church from a visit of some members of that church at our door. That Sunday I came to know Jesus Christ as my Savior and knew from that day for sure.
    I am going to give you three in the spirit of John 14:15 (1 John 3:23). One, to believe in Him as the Son of God, John 3:16. Two, to love my fellow disciples, John 13:34-35. And the third, which most Christians do not literally follow, no oaths of any kind, Matthew 5:33-37 (James 5:12; Deuteronomy 23:22).

    Bear in mind, which applies to both of us, Romans 2:1, ". . . Therefore thou art inexcusable, O man, whosoever thou art that judgest: for wherein thou judgest another, thou condemnest thyself; for thou that judgest doest the same things. . . ." (Matthew 7:1-2.)

    I see you picked one which is a simple no brainer, not speaking paths. Even though oaths spoken unto God are demonstrated in Scripture as good.

    Another you cited, that of believing on Jesus, is quite questionable and unlikely. John 14:12 has Jesus stating, "He that believes on me, the works that I do shall he do also, and greater works than these shall he do." You neither replicate nor exceed the works of Jesus.

    And, the third claim you made is false, that of loving your fellow believers. Jesus stated, "A new command I give unto you, that you love one another as I have loved you." It is not possible for any human to love another exactly as Jesus loves them.

    Have you obtained these delusions of obedience, and justified the exclusion of obeying other commands from Jesus, through your participation in the Baptist church?
