"S. Baptists don’t have confirmations, you would miss that"

Fine....I confess!!! Me and my bff's cheated on our Confirmation tests! There, I said it!

Now with that out in the open, I have learned much more reading my Bible on my own (thanks to the Jehovah Witness's)....yes, the JH's!!

I did Bible studies with them and they taught me how to read the Bible. For that I will ever be grateful.

Don't be silly.I was only saying that some people are in a church because they like the liturgy and practices, NOT because there is some test they need to pass to get to heaven, or to be a Christian. If a person likes the liturgy they should go to a church that also has it.

Baptists would miss having submersion baptisms if a church did not have them, would they not?

rejecting the One, Holy, Catholic and Apostolic Church and praising the JW’s!
isn’t it funny, those that claim to follow “sola scriptura” can’t find their “church” in the NT, and depending on what “church” fits their needs ( how self centered can you get )they wouldn’t be able to find this “church” for anywhere from the 16th to the 20th centuries!
meanwhile, the Catholic Church with the the Body of Christ, sits with empty pews.
talk about there being a falling away from the faith in the end times.....

Watch out! They use a very questionable translation that just happens to fit with their theology. They will try to tie you into a pretzel discussing what they believe about Jesus. I will never suggest that you do not try a certain Christian denomination, even though I would very strongly recommend Southern Baptists. But Jehova's Witnesses... that's another story... they are really a cult. I have witnessed to plenty of them and it is not easy! Whatever you do, do not get into any more Bible studies with them. They will mislead you.
