====Bring forth the scriptures that say "baptism cannot save"====

*Bring forth the scripture that explicitly states "baptism does not '''save''', baptism cannot '''save'''". <br>Bring forth the scripture that explicitly states "the Church does not '''save''', the Church cannot '''save'''", or that "membership in the Church does not '''save'''". <br>Bring forth the scripture that explicitly states  "membership in the Church eternally assures '''salvation'''" (which Catholic doctrine also rejects). <br>Bring forth here on this page ''Chapter and verse, with words "church", "membership", "baptism" (cannot, does not) "'''save'''", "'''salvation'''"''. <br>Show the Bible passage that explicitly says in any form "''born again by faith.''" <br> You can't. I know, because I looked, and tried to find it. It can't be found. It's not in the Bible. And if it's not in the Bible, the principle of ''sola scriptura'' refutes it totally. <br>So '''if you believe in salvation by faith alone you don't believe the Bible.''' It's as simple as that. --[[User:Dataclarifier|Dataclarifier]] ([[User talk:Dataclarifier|talk]]) 13:23, 7 November 2019 (EST)<br>By the way — The Catholic Church ''does teach'' that the Church saves.

:You have clearly demonstrated repeatedly that you do not believe the Bible, because like the original [[Anabaptists]] you refuse to believe the whole context of all the scriptures cited here above and used by Protestants and Orthodox and Catholics against them to no avail. If you chop up this one as you did before and contradict even one of these Bible passages, you will prove your opposition to the Bible and [[enmity]] to the truth. "Sanctify them through thy truth: thy word is truth" John 17:17. <br> You will not hear from me again. --[[User:Dataclarifier|Dataclarifier]] ([[User talk:Dataclarifier|talk]]) 13:23, 7 November 2019 (EST)
