    I don't think it matters as we are in the 21st century dealing with the issue based upon our doctrine and discernment from the Holy Spirit NOW.

    The Holy Spirit should be delivering the same discernment today as it did 16 centuries ago.

    true, for those holding to strict doctrines of their church would say baptists as going to hell if they were not water baptized!

    It's a well known fact they teach this. My family was and is CoC and they all believe this. Again this is one of their most well known false doctrines. Anyone denying this is denying historical fact. :type:

    Got em hooked now. I doubt it. Like with the Mormon, it can be justified because it's what we want.

    Agreed. He denies historical fact with alleged subjectivity.

    There are lot of different versions of the Church of Christ. Some, as Revmitchell has said, do not hold to the necessity for water baptism for regeneration. Some do. It depends on what part of the country one is in, and on the teaching of the pastors' teachers as to what they convey to their congregants.

    OK. Give some documented proof that CoC denies this historical doctrine regionally. :thumbsup:

    If I wanted to know what a CoC belives I wouldn't ask a Baptist, I'd ask someone in the CoC.

    Same goes for any other denomination. I can really see the advantages of having a Confession or some specific summary of a church's doctrine.

    The second link says that it is a necessary part of conversion.
    The third link says
    The fourth link says
    The fifth link says

    This is the most inane statement regarding DD I have seen on this board. You are judging people you have never met based on faulty reasoning.

    You are so right--on both points. There is a lot being said about CoC here that is just plain wrong.

    You call it faulty reasoning. I call it good observation. I don't have to have met the entirety of Christendom to rightfully point out that a lot of evangelicals and folks in the church spoke very little about cults and false teachings as they have for decades during the last election cycle because what they wanted outweighed that.

    So no ,much like the Presidential election, I don't believe folks are beyond not letting them speak to their congregations, even if they knew of their incorrect doctrine simply because we've set a precedent of ignoring the unGodly or marking it as not relevant to the situation at hand if it gets us what we want.

    If a mule and you got into a stubborn contest, you would win. And that's nothing to brag about.
