Can somebody give me the theological reasons for this? Also which one is the heretic?

[–] redshoepastor@lemmy.world 13 points 3 hours ago (1 children)

If you want an actual answer, I can! Baptists believe that baptism must mimic the baptisms performed by John the Baptist, so they must be believers baptism (no infants) and, most importantly to the meme, full immersion. Presbyterians believe that infants can be baptized and raised in the faith and that any form of water getting on the baptized person (sprinkle, pour, or dunk) is acceptable.

The Baptist thinks the Presbyterian is a heretic, other Presbyterians think this Presbyterian is a heretic if they believe this is the only acceptable way of doing it.

The PC(USA) Book for Order W-3.0407 The Act of Baptism is where they wrote it down. Applied with the hand, by pouring, or through immersion.

Pretty much just get baptized once and you're good.

Oh! That's the others difference. Presbys only have one baptism. Baptists have no limit.

Its a reference to how they do their baptisms.

can you get oreos without the middle part? the cookies are already super sugary, i'd think there are some people who would rather skip the diabetes cream.

I actually prefer the cookie to the cream. The cream is okay, I guess, but I could do without it.
