Daily Bites of “The Trail of Blood” vol. 1) By J. M. Carroll: Series 5

  False Doctrines:

Infant Baptism: Bite 21)

 As told by Clarence Walker:

The next serious error to begin to be creeping in, and which seems, from some historians (not all) to have begun in the same century, and which have been said to have been a most inevitable consequence of the “Baptism Regeneration” idea. This was a big change in the subject of Baptism. since Baptism had been declared to be a means part of Salvation by some erring churches, then they thought that the sooner Baptism took place, the better. hence, arose “Infant Baptism.” Prior to this false doctrine believers and believers only were regarded as proper subjects for Baptism. It was a testimonial ceremony. Sprinkling and pouring was not known at this time. It arrived much later. For several centuries infants, like others, were immersed. The Greek Catholics to this day have never changed the original form of Baptism. The first record, according to historians, of “Infant Baptism” began in AD 370. (VEDDER page 50: Christian page 31: Orchard page 50 etc.)

Hurtful Changes: Bite 22)

As told by Clarence Walker:

Let it be remembered that changes like these mentioned here were not made in a day. Not even in a year. They came about slowly and never were in all the churches. Some of the churches vigorously repudiated them. So much so ...that in AD 251 the loyal churches declared non-fellowship with those churches which accepted and practiced those errors. Thus, came about the first official separation of churches. It should be noted that in the first 3 centuries there were important and vital changes from where the teachings of Christ and His apostles had their beginning. One significant event took place. The first change was from the New Testament teaching to the changing of church government. The second one was the “Baptist regeneration” (believing Baptism brings Salvation) from the testimonial ceremony of believers. The third was the change to “Infant Baptism.” This became law and caused much shedding of true Christian blood.

Separation of the churches: Bite 23)

As told by Clarence Walker:

According to a well-established history, “Baptism Regeneration” and “Infant Baptism” caused the shedding of more Christian Blood as the centuries have gone by than all other errors combined. Over 50 million Christians died martyr deaths; many because they rejected these two errors. This happened during the period of the Dark Ages alone----about 12 or 13 centuries. These factors happened from the change during the first and third centuries. 1) The separation from the independence of the churches. 2) The subordinate charter of the bishops. 3) The change from Baptism as a ceremonial testimony for believers to denying it is a testimony but must be done at birth “Infant Baptism” and those who denied that belief were put to death. Here is a quote from Moshium, the greatest of all Lutheran historians: (vol 1. page 71,72) “whoever supposes that the bishops of this Golden Age (Christ and His Apostles) corresponds with the bishops of the following centuries must blend and confound characters that are very different. For in that Golden Age a bishop had charge of one single church and it may well have been a private house.

Independent Churches: Bite 24)

As told by Clarence Walker:

In the beginning, all churches were independent churches. The pastor or bishop was a servant or minister of the congregation. None of them were subject to the jurisdiction of any other. The churches which were founded by the apostles themselves frequently had the honor shown to be consulted, yet they had no judicial authority, no control or power of giving law. On the contrary, it is as clear as the noonday that all churches were respected on an equal footing. Up until this period of the bishops charters, there was not much and not many serious persecutions. Christianity had a marvelous growth. It had covered and even gone beyond the great Roman Empire. According to some of the church historians many of the churches that were organized by the apostles, are yet intact and yet loyal to the apostle’s teaching.

A New World Emperor: Bite 25)

As told by Clarence Walker:

By the beginning of the year AD 313, Christianity had won a mighty victory over Paganism. A new Emperor had come to the throne of the Roman Empire. He evidently recognized something of the mysterious power of the Christian religion that continued to grow in spite of the persecutions. History says that the new Emperor Constantine had a realistic vision. He saw in the sky a fiery red cross and on the cross, these words were written: “By This Thou Shalt Conquer!” He interpreted it to mean that he should become a Christian to rule the world. By giving up Paganism and attaching this spiritual power to the Roman Empire the world could be easily conquered. Then he decided the Christian religion would become a Worldwide religion and the Roman Empire would become a World Empire. In AD 313 a Council was called and a Hierarchy was formed dethroning Jesus Christ as the head of the churches of Rome.
