Have I been baptised?

This post is an off-shoot of Ben Duncan's recent thread entitled:

Resources on why we accept any trinitarian baptism

My position sides w/ Calvin et. al

as well, w/ this report:

MINORITY REPORT Ad Hoc Committee to Study the Validity of Certain Baptisms

This report can be found here:

http://www.pcahistory.org/pca/2-093.pdf

Have I been baptised?

~The above poll choices are actually my personal situation; they are not theoretical or fabrications.

They're both valid, but you need to find a new church in both cases.

, and that goes for many of us who were baptized in liberal churches by modernist ministers.

Yes, Roman Catholic baptisms are valid. Any Nicenean creed church's baptism is valid. But, that is only the beginning.

And the baptizer, Bob, was a Word of Faith disciple of Hagin and Copeland!
