Salvation through Christ Alone? -- A Moment of Decision

We have always contended on the Flyswatter that Pedobaptism leads to apostasy. We have contended that the Pedobaptist churches are sustained by the practice of Infant Baptism,
that this practice fills Pedo churches with the unregenerate, and that eventually the consequences result in various aberrancies.
That is why we have "rattled the cage" in regard to current Baptist compromise with Pedobaptists, such as practiced by the Flounders, R. Albert Mohler, Tom Nettles, Mark Dever, and some other "Reformed" Baptists.
One of our sometime-posters, James Galyon, says in an article on the Flounder's website, "Western Christendom, in being built by the method of 'communal conversions' and paedobaptism, was erected upon a faulty foundation. Western Christendom was blinded by superstition during the Dark Ages. . . ."
So the Flounders are "without excuse" when their practice gives "aid and comfort" to advocates of Pedobaptism. Their soft-peddling due to the "Reformed" theology of those Pedos with whom they often "run" can only lead to the weakening of Baptist principles. If you will take note of the various Flounders-friendly blogs, they are loaded with Pedobaptist links and sources.
Tom Ascol promotes a hardline on "regenerate church membership" when he attends the Southern Baptist Convention, but why is he so conciliatory to Pedobaptists and their practices in other situations? Tom is one of the biggest Baptist promoters of Pedo-promoting literature in the United States. In fact, Ernest Reisinger, founder of the Flounders, was a veritable "servant" of the Pedobaptist cause in various ways.
We know that a few Flounders-friendlies are unhappy with Ascol, Mohler, Nettles, and the Flounders about their playing "footsies" with Pedos such as Iain Murray, R. C. Sproul, Ligon Duncan, John Frame, David Wells, and similar "baby baptizers."
Will the Flounders ever really take an outright "Baptist" stand and leave the "Reformed" Pedos to their own machinations of apostasy?

No matter how many times a Calvinist's precepts are trounced they continue with the inane TULIP in the hopes that we'll just give up and accept it.
It ain't gonna happen.
Right from the get go, beginning with Total Depravity, their house crumbles down to the ground and they are loath to accept that it was not Scripture but Augustine of Hippo, Calvin, Luther and a host of minor, but demented, Puritans who are the true aegis of these concepts and are really at the heart of their movement.
They say they are drawing on Scripture but they are really beginning with Augustine.
I have just recently finished a read through James and I thought some of the words from divine Scripture could serve well here. I can only pray that Christians will display increasing measures of peace even in the midst of disagreement and that silly demeaning statements and outright beligerent rudeness will someday stop taking place from those Calvinists that oppose non-Calvinists, and from those non-Calvinists that oppose Calvinists. Disagree with the other side all you like, but at least try to behave like the savior you claim to represent.
James 3:17-18
But the wisdom from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, open to reason, full of mercy and good fruits, impartial and sincere. And a harvest of righteousness is sown in peace by those who make peace.
DISPLAYING PEACE

I looked at your links on your web site, Chris, and I saw a string of "Calvinists" who might appreciate your remarks. Maybe you could post them on those sites.
Bob,
In other words, you are uncomfortable responding to the Bible passages I quoted and would rather try to find more things against which to display a lack of peace? Is it the Bible you ignore, or just when it is quoted by those who are not hostile toward Calvinism?
You got me "giggling" too with this entry! I enjoy a good laugh! A hearty "chuckle"! lol
God bless

Dear Charles and Bob:
Count me in as one who gets a chuckle and a hearty laugh from both your jocularness and from the humorous comments!
God bless
Stephen

Who is "hostile toward Calvinism"? The only hostility on this blog has been hostility to Hybrid Calvinism. As for the Scripture, I was not aware of "ignoring" it. In fact, I recommended you put your article on the links which you feature.
