In Order To Maintain Their Salvation
I heard on the radio that “the church had to always deal with heresy.” I would agree. The question then becomes; how do we face heresy today? For example, if someone were to say that baptizing a newly born Human saves them. Would you say “heresy,” or sound doctrine? The first thing one would have to do, is search the Scriptures. Is there any evidence in the Scriptures where the act of baptizing a baby allowed them to be saved. The alternative being, would it require man’s understanding of the Scriptures to make it so? I would say there is a contradiction between “baptizing a newly born Human saves them” and the Anthanasian Creed’s false method of salvation. The Anthanasian Creed declares unless one believes “the Son is God” one cannot be saved. A newly born Human can’t believe that yet. You can’t teach both of these as true. If baptism saved the “newly born Human,” not knowing anything about “the Son is God,” then how do you reconcile these two teachings? The only explanation would be that “the newly born Human” would then have to go onto to believe the Anthanasian Creed’s “the Son is God” in order to maintain their salvation. Therefore, I would say, heresy. There’s no actual evidence of either of them being so in the Scriptures.
God bless.
