idol
The Cath-Calvanite ++++++++++
has changed the definition of idol.
What exactly is an idol ?
a representation or symbol
of an object of worship
broadly : a false god
Idolatry is the worship of an idol or cult image,
being a physical image,
such as a statue, or a person
other than God
as if it were God.
Calvanite +++++++++++
we need to get a better definition of what an idol is.
An idol is when something or someone becomes more important to us than God.

baptism is a symbol of the work of Jesus in a Christian’s life.
It is a picture of the forgiveness of sins,
not the actual forgiveness of sins.
baptism, a Christian goes underwater
and comes back up is like a picture
of when Jesus was buried and then rose from the dead
By the authority of a true New Testament Church
Baptism is a picture
of the death, burial and resurrection
when the professed Christian
is submerged completely in water
then raised out of the water
in the name of the Father,
and the Son, and the Holy Spirit.
It is an ordinance for admission to the Church.
It is not a sacrement.
It does not save.
It does not wash away sin.
