If you plunge into eternity clutching the airy fiction
Octavius Winslow
We do not hesitate to pronounce the doctrine of “baptismal regeneration” to be the paramount
lie of Satan–the most subtle and fatal weapon which this arch foe of our race ever forged
for the destruction of men’s souls in eternal perdition!
Do not build your hope of glory, upon your baptism.
You are lost to all eternity if you do.
You must be born again if ever you enter the kingdom of Heaven.
If you plunge into eternity clutching the airy fiction, the fatal notion that you passed from
spiritual death into spiritual life in your baptism; that in baptism you were regenerated,
adopted, justified, made holy and saved–then you have staked your eternal happiness upon
the most fatal lie!
In many instances, the unhappy victim of this delusion passes away, undeceived until the
deception is too late to rectify!
“Only one life to live and soon is past
Only what’s done for Christ will last!”
Hoping to make the time I have left count for the glory of God.
