OK smart guys, explain this to me.....
Yesterday in EQ, the recently called EQ pres was giving the lesson on baptism and made the statement that baptism washing away our sins is one of the biggest false doctrines in the church. He said that be baptized does not wash away our sins, it's the confirmation and receiving the holy ghost that actually absolves our sins. a couple of his friends agreed and he went on. Any one agree with that and, is so, could you tell me the logic behind that?

I've never heard that.
Doesn't the 4th Article of Faith tell us that your EQ President has no idea of which he speaks? You ought to bring it up next week.

Since they are always done in tandem, who cares?

I also believe that the laying on of hands if for the GIFT OF THE HOLY GHOST. (more e-shouting). I could be way off on those beliefs, though. Admittedly, I am speaking off the cuff. Did your EQ instructor provide any scriptural or anecdotal basis for his theory?

It is my opinion that EQ teachers such as this are closer to the road to apostacy than someone who smokes cigars. People who can't just be satisfied with the Gospel being simple, but have to go into deep thought on it and espouse it to others as fact, need further outlets to spew their intelligent ravings. They end up forming a group and heading to Missouri early. |

Interestingly, your description in the second paragraph so nicely fits so many of those posting on this board it's silly.
