Healing, prophecy, miraculous signs, things like that.

Healing God can do. I think He still does. I'm not sure about prophecy. I'm not sure there's a need for prophecizing any more.

But people can't do healing anymore?

Well certainly, if God allows them to do.

Kind of creepy... My first impression.

Fair enough.

What do you think about Catholicism?

I think that some Catholics can be moral and good people. But if they don't believe that Jesus is the only way to salvation, then they aren't saved.

Do you think most Catholics think there is another way to salvation?

What are your thoughts on the Nicene Creed?

What are your thoughts on church history, mostly meaning what do you think happened after the Apostles?

What is your denominaton's view on moderate alcohol consumption? (Not drunkeness)

Does your denomination view Baptism as necessary for salvation? Can a person who is not baptised go to Heaven?

I don't know what the Nicene Creed is. I can google it though. ;)

After the apostles meaning after they died? I've never really thought about it.

Well... There are lots of people in my denomination that probably drink, so I couldn't say we are against it without that being false. But personally, I believe that any consumption of alcohol not for medicinal purposes is not good. (watch that statement come back to bite me...)

No. They don't believe baptism is necessary for salvation. Yes a person who is not baptised can go to heaven if he is saved. Baptism is a public profession of your faith in God and identifying yourself with Him. We are commanded to do so.
