If someone is truly willing, let them be baptized.
It doesn't matter their political beliefs.
They have to go through preparation
Not everyone goes through preparation.
Political beliefs always matter because some beliefs will condemn someone to hell. Such as communism, abortion, etc.
I didn't. I confessed my sins, confessed Jesus as my Lord, was baptized and I felt the Holy Spirit enter and mark me.
Then you were prepared
I think that a communist who hates homosexuality and promotes Christianity will make it to heaven.
Jesus did say no matter your hours you should be paid the sane.
Same
But we are not to just give away the sacraments and that's why we take a more cautious approach. But, someone undergoing preparation has the baptism of desire
So I can see a Christian Socialist..
That was a parable related to people who convert on their deathbed etc
By Jesus?
Passage please.
Matthew 20:1-16
But I know in my heart, and I pray to God that I take communion in a worthy manner, for those that don't sin against him and heaven.
Right.
So you work with what you agree.
Nothing wrong with a Christian Socialist so long as everyone works with what they agree to work.
Luke 10:7, 1st Timothy 5:18, Matthew 10:10, Leviticus 19:13, Deuteronomy 24:15
The passage can be taken literally and of spirituality.
Socialism is a mortal sin
And part of the basic tenets of socialism and communism is banning religion
Says the Catholics. If everyone agrees to work the same amount and be on equal grounds, so long as the institution is Christian, I see nothing wrong with that.
Personally, I'm not a socialist.
To agree, is not a socialist thing
That's a negotiation between the employee and employer
I was talking about socialist economics.
You can be a moral conservative and believe in socialism.
Look at Nazis.
A negotiation of wages is not socialist. It's capitalist
Nazis weren't moral conservative
Anyway.
I need to go pack my things.
I am Christian and Christ is my Lord. I believe all should worship Him.
@saturnsrings study the new testament.
If Catholicism turns you off, study Restorationism, or Orthodoxy. As long as your first love is God the Son then you are fine, and the Holy Spirit will guide you to Salvation where we will be united with the Father.
Christ told us to worship God first, not him.
Christ said no one is good but the Father.
So in accepting Christ as our Lord and Savior, we also accept the commands of God. By accepting Christ, we worship him, and then we worship God.
