Featured Faith plus right beliefs

Under Protestant he listed:

 

You started this thread and just a very few religions, none of which preached the gospel.

If you read books on cults they are classified as a cult. You are entitled to your opinion, but you are wrong.

Neither of us live in Africa. Your point is moot.

The Anglican Church in the U.S., Canada, and Britain, are similar to the Catholic Church. One will not find the gospel being preached there. I have been to those nations. I don't frequent Africa.

Jesus is not the sole object of their faith. Baptism is. If Jesus were the sole object of their faith it would be a different matter, but they make baptism part of the object of their faith by making it a requirement of salvation, and therefore cannot be saved as long as they believe that. It is Jesus alone that saves, not baptism. This religion is a cult.

Baptism doesn't save. If you believe in that superstition, rather than Jesus saves, then you cannot be saved. It is either one or the other. You cannot believe both.

You are naive to think that there are only 8 denominations.
And you are just as naive to think that all the world can be characterized by just the three or four that you started this thread with.

That is not making it easy on anyone. It is posting a lie.

 

Aren't Anglicans though like reformed, as they see it as NOT bestowing grace merits as the RCC, but as a sacrament that those saved need to partake of?
they see spiritual presense of Christ through it, but NOT as RCC do, more akin to reformed like presby?

 

good question!

remembering that individuals within churches such as RCC and CoC can and are still saved despite the group false teachings, due to the Grace of God...

Would see it as being churches/groups that have the Gospel, but add distinctive doctrines that may/may not be accurate to the Bible...

Such as presby with view on infant baptism, Assemblies of god with "baptism in holy Spirit", various nazenene/Westlyn 'holiness" views...

Those churches adhere to saved by faith and grace alone in cross and person of jesus, but add distinct docttrines...

RCC/CoC/JesusOnly have different Gospel, faith and works, also have distinctive doctrines, but difference is their Gospel itself flawed!

And I see cals/Arms as BOTH part of the Body of Christ, so churches call fall either side of that dispute, as long as teaching real christ and saved by grace/faith alone!

 

I'm going to take a stab at this since I'm attending an Episcopal church at the moment. They do not preach faith + anything. They preach Christ alone and the sacraments of baptism, communion etc, are to remind us of whose we are and our responsibilities to the One who bought us.

On infant baptism: I've attended just one. There was little difference between it and a Baptist baby dedication except that little trickle of water over the babe's head. The liturgy that was read, the prayers that were said, all pointed to the responsibility of those surrounding the baby to raise it to Christ until she was old enough to make her own decision/commitment. Nothing was said about the child's salvation being complete by the baptism. Not.one.word.

 

The archbishop questions God's Holy Word. God's Holy Word declares that we are saved by grace through faith and that not of ourselves. It is the gift of God, not of works lest any man should boast.

The archbishop states that grace plus works is not a false doctrine.

Scripture declares that Jesus is the only one that can give eternal life.

The archbishop says one does not need a right belief to obtain Salvation.

Obviously the archbishop is confused as to what merits Salvation and what does not.

 

There is so little difference between Anglican and Catholic that there is a movement for them to join back together again. If you remember the split was caused mostly because Henry VIII wanted a divorce and the RCC wouldn't allow it. So he split the church so he could have a divorce that would be recognized by "the church." There is little difference.

 

No, I cannot comment on something I don't know about. Unlike you I am not going to comment out of ignorance. I haven't been to Africa. Have you? Why would you make assumptions about something you know nothing about?

They are a cult. Again, you know little about the COC. That is evident from your posts. If you knew about them you wouldn't post like this. How about if I tell you that you can't be saved unless you are baptized by a COC minister who was in turn baptized by a COC minister. And you cannot remain saved unless you remain in the COC. Now does that sound like a cult?

People will go to hell if they don't know and believe the gospel. Do you need Scripture?

1 Corinthians 1:18 For the preaching of the cross is to them that perish foolishness; but unto us which are saved it is the power of God.
1 Corinthians 1:23 But we preach Christ crucified, unto the Jews a stumblingblock, and unto the Greeks foolishness;
1 Corinthians 2:2 For I determined not to know any thing among you, save Jesus Christ, and him crucified.

Unless you believe Christ and him alone you cannot be saved. Any other gospel is foolishness to the unsaved.

I referred you to that website to show you how many religions there really were, not because that man was really correct. Every denomination under "Protestantism" is still a denomination. I don't care about your denominational families. I have nothing in common with the Oneness Pentecostal or the United Church, both of which are either extreme cults or apostate churches. They Oneness Pentecostal requires that you both be baptized and speak in tongues in order to be saved. The United Church denies the very fundamentals of our faith like the resurrection of Christ, a literal heaven and hell, the deity of Christ, etc. I have nothing in common with those. The United Church here in the city that I live in, yesterday, held a "unity service" in special commemoration for all the gays living in the city. They wanted to celebrate the gay community. I have nothing in common with this church. But you say you do. Well good for you!! I am happy for you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

People in the above churches don't even believe in Jesus.
In the other church they trust in sign gifts that ceased long ago, and in their baptism to save them. That is not salvation!! They have a different Jesus.

Their Jesus is not the Jesus of the Bible. Like Benny Hinn, they believe that each person of the trinity has also 3 parts to it, thus making the trinity out of 9 total personnages. They worship a different Jesus. Yes, doctrine is important.

No, I don't deny the truth. Salvation is by grace through faith, and not of works. Check Eph.2:8,9. I believe what the Bible teaches, not the cults.

 

One need only look at the archbishops website and his personal beliefs to realize that he is preaching a false doctrine and to be rejected.

 

is he preaching the "official" teaching though of the Anglican church?

JI packer is one of them, aren't there conservative members/groups within their ranks?

 

He is not "Anglican"...he belongs to the "Celtic Anabaptist Communion"...very ecumenical. Check out the website that was posted on the Primitive Baptists thread.
