Mortal sin does separate us from God. Does that mean that our Baptism is erased? Does that mean that we are no longer His children? You have a really good point but it gets lost with abrasive answers.
Two issues are getting mixed up together
What happens when you sin after baptism?
- Baptism
- Sin after baptism
Baptism makes a children of God. It does not mean that we are saved. We sin and are separated from God but that does not undo our baptism.
There are three forms of baptism
Sacramental
Desire
Blood
You can only be baptized once and anyone who is baptized belongs to the Catholic Church. It doesn’t matter if that baptism is Lutheran, baptized etc. There are those whose baptism are not recognized as valid such as the LDS.
As you said, mortal sin separates us from God. What does separation mean?
What it doesn’t mean is that we are unbaptized. God is still are Father although we have lost communion with Him which may be restored through penance.
Hmmm…Who might have made some posts about baptism?
So, after reading all these things you have written about what baptism does, are you still prepared to support your assertion that one can become “unbaptized”?
Does murder (or any other sin) erase the effects of the sacrament?
Me too!It is important to me that the faith not be misrepresented here on CAF
