When Did You Receive the Holy Spirit?
Response to comment [from a Catholic]: "Initially, at my baptism..."
You are not a saved person.
You believe in
a work-based religion (Jude
11).
Baptist doesn't not save you.
Jesus saves (Isa
63:9;
Eph 5:23).
Jesus alone saves (Isa
45:21,22;
59:16;
Ac 4:12).

Works vs. Faith
"...as well as at various other times in my life."

"Here's St. Peter..."
His name is Peter.
Any saved person
is a saint (Acts
9:32,
41).
The apostle Peter understood justification.

The good news is--if you seek God wholeheartedly, you can be saved (Jer 29:13).

Be yourself. Everyone else is taken.
Jesus loves you (Jn

Believe (Mk
