Thank you. I was baptized when I was about 10 or 12 years old. And then I didn't have nothing to do with Christ.

I wasted about 40 years. And I was wondering if I should be baptized again. I've been praying and turning my heart over to the Lord for about seven years now. And I don't want to know if I need to be baptized again.

Well, let me tell you. I can make the case theologically. Now remember, theologically, I can make the case that you don't need to get baptized again.

I can do that. When you're younger and you have the baptism, I can make the case. But I can also make the case, get baptized again. If you're not sure and you just don't know and you don't feel as though it was the right thing to do because you walked in so much sin and that your heart is aching and you're doubting whether that baptism was real or not or what. And if you just don't know, you know what, just go get baptized. And just trust that the Lord is there with you and that he's not going to punish you for trying to do what you believe honors him. So I'm supposed to go to Israel in February. And people have asked me to baptize them in the Jordan River and they've already been baptized.

And I'm going to do it. Because I don't believe it's a sin to get baptized twice or three times or four times. I don't believe it's a rejection of the first baptism.

I believe it's a ceremony and a confirmation and an admission and an identification even more with Christ. So I think that's fine. Thank you so much for your time. Thank you so much.

Yes, very much. Bye-bye. God bless. All right, let's get to John from Wisconsin. John, welcome. You're on the air. Hi. First time I've ever called in.

Just started listening not long ago. Oh, well, good. Praise God, man. So what do you got?

What's up? Oh, I've been going to church with my older brother and trying to find a church for me to be more involved in rather than just going to show up. And I was wondering if you had any advice as to what to look for in the church, the sermons. Absolutely. Absolutely, yes. What I recommend is to go to my website, karm.org, and type in what to look for in a church.

Okay. That's what the article is. What to look for in a church. What things should we look for in a church at the website Karm, C-A-R-M. So if you were to type in Google C-A-R-M and then just type in what to look for in a church, what things should we look for in a church, you'll find the article. And it's listed out. Things to avoid and things to look for.

Right there. Bad churches are everywhere. If they affirm women pastors and elders, avoid it. If they support homosexuality, avoid it.

Are unbelievers paid to lead worship? Don't go there. Do they require baptism for salvation?

Avoid them. Full preterism? It's in there. Or universalism or annihilationism?

Do they promote legalism or positive confession or preach moralism? Okay. Or soul sleep? So there's things there. I can always expand on that. But there you go. Okay. So my brother is much more knowledgeable than I am. Have him call me.

I knew it. He was bringing up that they were tending to preach more of what we can do in the sermons. Like what we're supposed to do.

That we're required to do certain things and he was kind of disagreeing with that. Well it depends what they're preaching it for. We are to do things in order to honor God but not to be saved or maintain our salvation. So we are to do good things.

And if they teach they have to do good things to keep yourself right with God. Well just dust your feet off on the way out. Okay? Okay. Okay. Well thank you.

I will look that up on the website. All right. Karm.org is my website.

And just type in what things to look for in a church. Okay? Okay. All right. Thank you. All right, brother. God bless.

All right. Let's get to Gary from Ohio. Gary, welcome. You're on the air.

Welcome. Hey, Matt. Hey, real quick. Are you there? Yep. Okay. Hey, I started evangelizing.

It's been several months now. And I ran into a lady that I was trying to give her son a Bible. And she was real, she meant she, after a few seconds, she told me that she's northern paganism. Is that a German? I don't, you know, I'm born again Christian but she wouldn't hear anything I had to say.

She just kind of left me. What? I'd never heard of it before. But while you're talking, I looked it up. And dedicated to the religious tradition known as northern tradition, paganism, the non-reconstructionist, neo-pagan worship of the Norse Germanic gods.

All the northern gods are honored here as worshipers, devotees, lovers, spouses, priests, god-his, githeates, mystics, shamans, and just interested folk who can keep the rules of frith and hospitality. Yeah, so right there, I know what they're about and how to refute them. It's easy by asking questions. But yeah, they're in trouble, obviously. Oh man, it's so sad, you know. And I can only do so much, I had to move on enough. Another thing too, you know, you can't force somebody to take something.

Clearly I would. There's a music man. There's a music man. We've got to go. Okay, call back tomorrow, we'll talk some more about this. I'll call back. That's interesting. All right, that is interesting stuff. All right, man, God bless. Thanks, man. All right, have a good evening. Yeah, bye. All right. And Chuck from Burlington. Call back about seeker.

Seeker? Friendly churches, I think that's what you're talking about. Let's talk about that tomorrow. Very informative and very important we talk about that. We'll be right back tomorrow. Hey, God bless everybody.
