Where in the written word of God is that taught?
Where in the word of God is that taught?
John 17:3 ;
John 1:9 ; Hebrews 1:3 contradics that in that the Son is that very light.

Jesus stated that He came from the Father and was now returning to Him again, correct?

I did not say that reformed holding to infant baptism are not saved, I stated that Baptismal regeneration is heresy!

Again, the word "heresy" comes from the French, not the Bible (it is related to a Greek word meaning to "choose").

Are you saying that heresy then does not exist as in not defined to us by the scriptures?

Not all that might be deemed heresy is damnable heresy.

I am saying "heresy" is a "doctrine or opinion at variance with established standards" and comes from the French word heresie.

It is derived from the Greek (αἵρεσις, εως, ἡ ") meaning" to choose" (but does not mean to choose).Strong's Concordance haíresis ("a strong, distinctive opinion" ) is used in the NT of individual "parties (sects)" that operated within Judaism. The term stresses the personal aspect of choice – and hence how being a Sadducee (Ac 5:17) was sharply distinguished from being a Pharisee (Ac 15:5; 26:5).

False.
The Word, who is the uncaused Son, is the sole cause of all finite and temporal scts of God. John 1:3 , Colossians 1:16-17 ,
1 Corinthians 8:6 , ". . . by whom are all things, . . ."
Not all other things!begotten refers explicitly to His incarnate resurrection in time, Acts of the Apostles 13:33 .

You are not hearing.
The true Light is never a light from light.
The Son is God's Light, they are the uncaused God.

I have no idea who the individual translators were, however I acknowledge that that version was ratified by a non-Baptist Reformed synod.

I am speaking of heresy as the term has historically meant throughout the history of the Christian Age, as scripture indeed indicates to us that even back in the time of the Apostles some false heretics had crept in among the flock!

God begot the Word, who became Jesus, who was and is God the Son, so that would mean that he was eternally God, not created by God!

I agree with you, as this very discussion highlights how difficult it seems to be to get to a consensus on what is really heresy!
