20 years worth of baptisms invalidated

James 2:26 For as the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without works is dead also.

that's the only thing that makes any sense - every evil in the world could justify itself (and often does) if good works wasn't essential
Clearly a complex topic. People should certainly try to live their lives with a moral compass, which I think is a common dominator for most religions (including Christianity) and philosophies for that matter. But ultimately we will fail, so it’s nice that we aren’t held to the standard of perfection for salivation. I don’t personally think that grace should be used as an excuse for those that engage in evil. And I’m confident that a God capable of creating the universe is capable of discerning the difference.
