This is the same thing Joseph Smith made up. Everyone needs to be baptized, even dead people.
Do you think that a holy infinite God would require another man to dunk or sprinkle you for salvation? WRONG! This is work and it usually precedes faith & the spirit. Now, I ask you, how can man save himself? He can't! Jesus said "It is impossible for man." I do not hate the Catholic church. I hate the Mormon church. As far as your ideas of children going to hell without baptism is wrong and evil.

Calvinism is not Christianity, its Calvinism. Jesus said in Mark 16:16, He that believes and is baptised shall be saved NOT He that believes and is not baptised shall be saved. I'll believe Jesus Christ over Matt Slick any day.

What did Jesus accomplish by His atoning sacrifice? The big question in theology is are the sins of the world forgiven? Jn 1:29, 2 Cor 5:19, Rm 4:25. If the forgiveness is not already there what is faith to believe? Does faith bring the forgiveness into existence like some kind of magical genie? On the contrary the forgiveness of sins is what brings faith into existence Rm 10:14-17. Faith is necessary or the forgiveness of sins is forfeited and we are left to pay for our own sins Heb 4:2.

I seriously doubt if the Catholic video speaker has even been baptized. Most likely he had water poured (katacheō in the Greek) on him, or was sprinkled (rhantizō in Greek) with water, but New Testament water baptism is immersion (baptizō in Greek). Unless and until he has been immersed in water, he has not been baptized. Catholic's have twisted and perverted baptizō and tried to get away with sprinkling (rhantizō) or pouring (katacheō) instead of immersion (baptizō).

Get the following:
1. The Oneness Of God by David Bernard.
2. The New Birth.
I tis easy to look at scriptures pro and con on this subject, but we must analyze not only all the scriptures, but pray and be honest enough with Jesus to allow THE SPIRIT OF JESUS CHRIST to guide us.
The Holy Ghost is The Spirit of Jesus Christ.
Philippians 1:19 (KJV)
19 For I know that this shall turn to my salvation through your prayer, and the supply of the Spirit of Jesus Christ,

"If any one shall say that justifying faith is nothing else than confidence in the divine mercy pardoning sins for Christ's sake, or that it is that confidence alone by which we are justified ... let him be accursed," (Canon 12, Council of Trent).
The catholic church says its a curse to believe that Faith in Jesus can save. Very interesting stuff. Catholics, according for your doctrine, your obedience saves you.

OneTrueChurch, I went to Ephesians 2:8-9; baptism wasn't mentioned at all according to your statement at 3:33. Faith is defined in Hebrews 11:1, and baptism wasn't mention there either. It looks like you adding to scripture.

@OneTrueChurch have you watched all parts of 1-11 Church of Christ -VS- Christianity Debate on Baptism? if not please do as it'll make you and Matt slick think about your arguments.

Great video and Matt Slick is an intolerable, arrogant, divisive, piffle-spewing wretch. Nevermind what he goes on about.
Truth is not dependent upon what most of the early church fathers thought to be true, it is based upon the Bible, apart from tradition.
Romans 3:28 For we hold that one is justified by faith apart from works of the law.
Baptism, just as OT circumcision, is a work.

of course it is dependent on what the early church fathers taught, because scripture cannot have a different meaning then what was held to in the early church. If everyone before the 1500s believed in baptismal regeneration, then Calvin's denial of it was obviously a novelty. Besides you wouldn't even have a bible period if it weren't for the early church fathers and the Catholic Church

Paul talks about "Baptism" in Eph. 2:8-9 ,when he said Faith?
how do you come up with this nonsense?
and, Faith is given by the church (RCC/Ortxodox) ?
you might want to crack open the Bible and let RCC's fables on the side for a while !
