It started when he challenged anyone to show biblically how it might be taught that repentance is a requirement for salvation; and he would give them $1,000 if they could show this from the Bible.

Luke 13:5 I tell you, Nay: but, except ye repent, ye shall all likewise perish.

I know that the persecution for righteousness' sake means that I am indeed blessed and that it means that the kingdom of heaven belongs to me. However, I am still not happy when it occurs because it means that certain people will be less inclined to receive the good news that will save them as it comes from me.

So, I'm sorry that I care about the salvation of others. I suppose I should just "suck it up" because I have a reward.

But I think that if there is any message that is consistent in the word, it is that we ought not to be selfish.

So, while I may be able to rejoice over the reward that I will receive over being persecuted for righteousness' sake, I do not rejoice in the fact that certain people may reject the gospel as a whole because the one aspect of it that would have saved them came off from my keyboard; and they rejected it because someone tried to identify me as a false teacher.
You are a false teacher, JBF, an absolutely false teacher. Maybe somewhere deep-down you actually mean well, but the Spirit is undeniably nowhere near you.

Being called a false teacher by a heretic who denies Christ's Deity is actually an affirmation of my ministry, so thank you.

It is a major part of my testimony that at conversion, the Holy Spirit came upon me with such power that I felt Him as though He were waves of liquid love flowing over me. It was such a powerful experience that I believe I may have even been in heaven for the space of about four minutes. I said to God, that I have to go back and tell people about this love!

So, you cannot convince me that I am devoid of the Spirit; I've felt His love and I've seen His power.

I don't think that you will be able to convince anyone else, either; unless they are simply hard-hearted folks who simply do not want to believe the truths that I have been preaching.

Rev 12:10, And I heard a loud voice saying in heaven, Now is come salvation, and strength, and the kingdom of our God, and the power of his Christ: for the accuser of our brethren is cast down, which accused them before our God day and night.
Rev 12:11, And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony; and they loved not their lives unto the death.

Please define the doctrines that you consider to be false in what I have been preaching.

I know about verse 5... I said to read to verse 11.

But that doesn't negate what you offered a reward for.
11 And God wrought special miracles by the hands of Paul:

$10,000 Reward:

Offered to anyone who can find ONE scripture in the authorized King James Version of the Holy Bible TEXT:

(1) with the word "TRINITY" in it;

(2) which contains any one of the following “KEY” phrases (designated within the “quotation marks”, below) that people have been indoctrinated and taught to use in their description of ... and/or reference to ... God, or the Godhead:

a) "TRIUNE GOD"
b) "God IN THREE PERSONS"
c) "God THE Son"
d) "God THE Holy Spirit" (or "God THE Holy Ghost"); OR

(3) where anyone was baptized any where in the New Testament with the following “words” from Matthew 28:19 repeated over them, “in the NAME of the Father, AND of the Son, AND of the Holy Ghost”. (These "titles" are used by virtually every religious denomination and/or independent, autonomous, congregation, today, including BOTH Catholics and Protestants, regardless of whether they baptize by sprinkling or complete immersion).

Great idea!

I will give $1000.00 to anyone that can find anybody in the N.T. church scriptures(Acts through Rev) that was water baptized any other way but in the name of Jesus Christ.
Read instructions carefully.

All I can find is the name of Jesus Christ being spoken during water baptisms after Acts 2.

Maybe someone else can find it?

As concerning #2...I would point out the Johannine comma (1 John 5:7 (kjv))....

Thanks, I can really use the $10,000.

Now we know that no one who is offering money like this is ever really going to make good on their offer, even if their challenges were to be met.

Number #2 reads as follows:

(2) which contains any one of the following “KEY” phrases (designated within the “quotation marks”, below) that people have been indoctrinated and taught to use in their description of ... and/or reference to ... God, or the Godhead:

a) "TRIUNE GOD"
b) "God IN THREE PERSONS"
c) "God THE Son"
d) "God THE Holy Spirit" (or "God THE Holy Ghost")


The scripture you stated is...
1 John 5:7 For there are three that bear record in heaven, the Father, the Word, and the Holy Ghost: and these three are one.


I'm sorry ... but you have failed to meet the challenge. Your scripture clearly does NOT read "God THE Son" or "God THE Holy Ghost"

Oh...so you ere saying that it has to meet ALL FOUR of a, b, c, and d...

Clearly, the verse in question shows forth God to be three-in-one.

But it's all right, I don't expect you to pay up.

@Blood Bought 1953 didn't when I proved him wrong...why should you?

It identifies the Son and the Holy Ghost as being one with the Father.

My question to you is whether or not you believe that the Father is God...
