Hi all, I was baptized today and wanted to encourage everyone here to learn about the Gospel and what is involved. There are many different Christian faiths, but the key to understanding the Gospel involves three things...repent, baptism and salvation. Repent or returning from your sin is the hardest one for most people, as living without sin or trying not to sin is truly difficult. Baptism is the symbolic removal of sin via immersion with Christs blessing. Salvation is the concept of accepting Jesus as your personal savior and understanding that it comes through him. This is just a snippet of the ideas involved but I cannot recommend enough researching these topics learning for yourself. God Bless, V.

The thief was still under the Old Covenant…the idea that man created the Sacraments is just another layer of deception to keep you from the truth by thinking you have esoteric knowledge. Christ Himself establish the Sacraments as a means of grace, they are Divinely instituted to deliver His promises in a tangible way and provide the believer with comfort and assurance.
