Hi guys!
Just found your web site today. I have been debating on the MSN-Pope thread
with a non-Catholic.
He says that Ephesians 1:13,
where it says we are sealed with the Holy Spirit,
means that no matter what we do after that,
we are still saved. I have told him that the
prodigal son was saved, then unsaved, then saved
again. He always has a way of getting around
it.
He's the worst Scripture twister I have ever
debated with. There are two other Catholics on
the thread, and none of us has been able to fully
answer this question.
I gave up on the thread for Lent but I'm trying
to study up and find some good answers for him
before I go back to discuss the issue again after Easter.
- Isn't the verse I gave you talking about Baptism?
- If it is, how do we know that?
He thinks Baptism
is just a symbolic rite, so that would be one
thing against him.
- How can he put so much stock
in that one verse if it is about Baptism and he believes it's only symbolic?
Please help me with this. Thank you in advance.
I hope I've made myself clear.
Sincerely,
Mary
