Pilgrim,
Just so you know, I am NOT going to get into yet another debate over baptism. I'm far too educated on the subject and now in my old age far too wise to even bother.
I don't plan on debating either. 1. I don't have time. 2. Don't think it's that pressing of an issue. So far your replies have been longer than mine. I'm just stating my opinions, not getting in-depth. You started by giving your opinions. I'm going to layout some of mine.
Baptism and the Lord's Table are two entirely different sacraments and thus your analogy falls on its face.
I don't believe that just because they're different that implies my analogy falls on its face. Just saying that doesn't make it so.
And trust me, you didn't really comprehend what I wrote given your reply. As I noted above, you don't get it.... ! rolleyes2 PBs don't define baptism based upon a subjective criteria but rather an objective criteria. Thus "this same problem" is totally irrelevant and your argument is mute.
Yes and no, and it depends on which PB view. CB define it on objective material too. It's not either/or, but both/and. And it becomes the same problem when it comes to adults for some PB (those holding to presumptive regeneration). Your rolling eyes make you come across just as obnoxious as James White. You may mean it in a joking way, but if I were talking about this with you in person and you did that it wouldn't go to good! These things can be discussed and opinions can be shared respectfully without those type of armchair reactions. The Charasmatics are spiritually prideful and the Reformed are intellectually prideful.
