a. remember it is a dream…pg 245..he was not sure it happened. remember, papa showed up as a man. in the dream…

b. best not to start worshipping and bowing down to older black women or elderly white men in mining clothes! The making of the Christ is a worse idol that the shacks papa. At least none of us is stupid enough to picture God who is a consuming fire as an old black woman or elderly white miner; not that God could not appear as that if he chose….

c. If you have seen me, you have seen the father…

No, it definitely presents an unbiblical view of the Trinity, as you indicate it shows God as 3 separate persons, bodily and otherwise, this is Tritheism and Modalism, “we are not talking about one God with three attitudes”, Young emphasizes the plurality of the Godhead as God being the Afro American woman, Jesus the a Middle Eastern man and the Holy Spirit as an Asian woman. Young indicates that the unity of God is not one in essence (nature) as Biblically taught, but ascertain that it is a social union of three separate persons. The Word of God clearly teaches that God is one essence but has three distinct and inseparable persons, Father, Son and Holy Spirit. Young’s view of the Trinity is flawed.

Are you sure that is what it is called ? I think you mean “You May All Prophesy”

You can add ‘All shall prophecy’ by Steve Thompson to the list. They were reading it when I was there.

As often happens with stories like this, the Daily Telegraph and the Daily Mail appear to have got their facts wrong.

Comment on Is Infant Baptism Biblical ? by spdar

Thanks for the comments. I think that your question is a good one. The issue really not a question of did they understand the baptism, but did they understand sufficiently to become a Christian. If they did, then I would be happy that the baptism was as a believer and yes, I would agree that it would be good to spend time with them to explain further but I would not see the need to be baptised again.

If however I became convinced that they did not understand sufficiently to become a Christian then I would first of all want to address that and if, having understood, they then wanted to make a confession of faith in Jesus then I would look for them to do that and then look at them being baptised again as a believer.

I hope that helps. If not, or you have other questions please let me know.

Great article…just one question though…if someone is baptized at a young age as you cite an example, but it was believer’s baptism…..and do say I didn’t fully understand what it meant….wouldn’t you want to further talk to them to see if they even understood being a believer? I would think that if the concept of Baptism was over their head, possibly becoming making Christ the Lord of their life migh also have been a concept they couldn’t grasp at the young age. Just thought I’d ask…..

I’d love to be a ‘passionate follower of Jesus’.
