The Words of Eternal Life 60 When many of his disciples heard it, they said, “This teaching is difficult; who can accept it?” 61 But Jesus, being aware that his disciples were complaining about it, said to them, “Does this offend you? 62 Then what if you were to see the Son of Man ascending to where he was be- fore? 63 It is the spirit that gives life; the flesh is useless. The words that I have spoken to you are spirit and life. 64 But among you there are some who do not believe.” For Jesus knew from the first who were the ones that did not believe, and who was the one that would betray him. 65 And he said, “For this reason I have told you that no one can come to me unless it is granted by the Father.” 66 Because of this many of his disciples turned back and no longer went about with him. 67 So Jesus asked the twelve, “Do you also wish to go away?” 68 Simon Peter answered him, “Lord, to whom can we go? You have the words of eternal life. 69 We have come to believe and know that you are the Holy One of God.”[h] 70 Jesus answered them, “Did I not choose you, the twelve? Yet one of you is a dev- il.” 71 He was speaking of Judas son of Simon Iscariot,[i] for he, though one of the twelve, was going to betray him. I am not sure if believing in God will make a difference in my life. I am not sure if being a Catholic would help make me feel better.

  • John the Baptist: Jesus Freak
    John the Baptist: Jesus Freak Matthew 3:1-2,4: In those days John the Baptist came, preaching in the wilderness of Judea 2 and saying, “Repent, for the kingdom of heaven has come near.” 4 John’s clothes were made of camel’s hair, and he had a leather belt around his waist. His food was locusts and wild honey. Luke 3:7-8,10-14: John said to the crowds coming out to be baptized by him, “You brood of vipers! Who warned you to flee from the coming wrath? 8 Produce fruit in keeping with repentance… 10 “What should we do then?” the crowd asked. 11 John answered, “Anyone who has two shirts should share with the one who has none, and anyone who has food should do the same.” 12 Even tax collectors came to be baptized. “Teacher,” they asked, “what should we do?” 13 “Don’t collect any more than you are required to,” he told them. 14 Then some soldiers asked him, “And what should we do?” He replied, “Don’t extort money and don’t accuse people falsely—be content with your pay.” Luke 3:19-20: But when John rebuked Herod the tetrarch because of his marriage to Herodias, his brother’s wife, and all the other evil things he had done, 20 Herod added this to them all: He locked John up in prison. Matthew 3:5-6: People went out to him from Jerusalem and all Judea and the whole region of the Jordan. 6 Confessing their sins, they were baptized by him in the Jordan River.

  • Shared Beliefs Between Roman Catholics and Protestants
    May 27, 2018 Shared Beliefs between Roman Catholics and Protestants Recommended Book • Roman Catholics and Evangelicals: Agreements and Differences by Norman L. Geisler and Ralph E. MacKenzie (Baker Books, 1995). • James Akin, Roman Catholic, Catholic Answers Senior Apologist “This book offers a comprehensive and balanced discussion and should retire older, sensationalistic works.” Summary of Agreements “What evangelicals have in common with Roman Catholics… this includes the great fundamentals of the Christian faith, including a belief in the Trinity, the virgin birth, the deity of Christ, the creation and subsequent fall of humanity, Christ’s unique atonement for our sins, the physical resurrection of Christ, the necessity of God’s grace for salvation, the existence of heaven and hell, the second coming of Christ, and the verbal inspiration and infallibility of Scripture.” (Geisler, Roman Catholics and Evangelicals, p. 155) Areas of Agreement Shared Beliefs on the Bible High View of Scripture • “The [Catholic] Church has always venerated the divine Scriptures.” (Vatican II) Scripture is inspired (“from God”) • Inspiration deals with the source of the Bible: it’s from God (2 Tim. 3:16; 2 Pet. 1:21). • Prophets were mouthpieces for God (2 Sam. 23:2; Heb. 1:1; Dt. 18:18; “thus says the Lord” x 1700). 1 • First Vatican Council: The Old and New Testaments were “written under the inspiration of the Holy Spirit… they have God as their author.” Scripture is infallible (“cannot fail or be broken”). • Jesus said it has divine authority (“it is written,” Mt. 4:7). • Jesus said it cannot perish (“not on jot or tittle will pass away until all fulfilled,” Mt.

  • The Practice of Baptism and Its Justification in Anglican Church
    IOSR Journal Of Humanities And Social Science (IOSR-JHSS) Volume 21, Issue 4, Ver. I (Apr. 2016) PP 32-38 e-ISSN: 2279-0837, p-ISSN: 2279-0845. www.iosrjournals.org The Practice Of Baptism And Its Justification In Anglican Church Dr. Ekundayo, Lawrence Olabode Department Of Religion And African Culture, Faculty Of Arts, Adekunle Ajasin University, Akungba- Akoko, Ondo State, Nigeria. Abstract: This work was carried out on the sacrament of baptism from the perspective of the Anglican Church. The aims and objectives of the paper are: To examine the modes of baptism in Anglican liturgy, to know the spirituality of baptism to the Anglican Church; and to investigate the justifications for infant baptism in Anglican denomination. To achieve these objectives, exegetical and polemical approaches were employed. Consequently, it was discovered that total immersion is not strongly encouraged in Anglican Church. Rather, Affusion, and Aspersion are considered as having equal validity and spirituality with immersion. The work contributes to knowledge by submitting that: Infant baptism enhances the spiritual consciousness of the Anglican youth; and also arouses their characters of chastity and piety thereby reducing criminalities and delinquencies among the Anglican youth. Keywords: Anglican, baptism, infant, sacrament, spirituality. I. Introduction: Anglican believes in certain sacraments as a means by which grace and forgiveness can be attained. In the liturgy of Anglican, the Thirty-Nine Articles stipulates that Baptism was instituted by Jesus Christ for human salvation. Baptism is called sacrament of the gospel. However, there are five others known as the sacraments of unction of the Holy Spirit. These include the sacrament of reconciliation; that is, confession and absolution, holy matrimony, confirmation, ordination and anointing of the sick.
