It's who you commit your soul to that matters. To Christ or to "another Christ."
For the sake of argument, would you say it is acceptable for a self aware individual to commit his soul to anything in an act of ignorance?
Let’s pretend you weren’t as sure in your beliefs as you currently are, and that the whole thing was relatively new to you. You didn’t understand anything outside of “God created everything, God loves you, and Jesus died for our sins.” You were not familiar with the greater tenets, you were not familiar with the Sacramental practices, and you were operating mostly from a position of ignorance.
Would it then be right to commit your soul to ANYTHING, not fully understanding what you were doing?
At this point, I am of the firm belief that God wanted me to commit myself, but to do so knowingly and without doubt. It took more than the “you should be baptized” speeches given by so many at those churches. Unlike some of my friends, and so many of the folks I saw at those churches, I didn’t want to do it just to “be one of the cool kids.” No joke, when I went to my friend’s Baptism, there were a number of those types. Even she was Baptized because she really liked my Baptism. Thing is, we were Baptized at different churches by different people, and she wasn’t satisfied with hers because it “wasn’t as nice as mine.”
She was missing the point. So many do.
