    The thief on the cross misconceptions

    I'm not claiming baptism is for already saved Christians. And this is the discussion. I've heard you and others claim this but I get no scriptures from you as evidence? Instead you are now questioning me on other topics. What are you claiming? There's a lot of gibberish about tongues, which...

    What does it mean to be born again?

    "A compromise with the flesh is a compromise of light and darkness. One does not justify the flesh. One goes to God to have it crucified. That is the pathway to the higher walk. That is the truth that sets us free." - Episkopos Whoever does not take up their cross and follow me is not worthy of...

    The thief on the cross misconceptions

    Are we addressing mankind or God with this definition of righteousness? The righteousness of man is different from that of God - of that which is presented in the Bible vs. secular society. Secular society defines righteousness as something of a joke; as in "goody two shoes" or "Jesus freak"...

    The thief on the cross misconceptions

    They replied, “Believe in the Lord Jesus, and you will be saved—you and your household.” (Acts 16:31 APART FROM THE LAW, NO ONE CAN BE SAVED. Washings do not save. They are either a preparation for meeting the Lord or a demonstration that they have done so. Jesus said righteousness is...

    An Omniscient God Negates Free Will

    Christianity claims God is all knowing? One can use scripture to justify any dogma. Adolph Hitler claimed "Gott mitt uns" Meaning 'God is with us.' Was He? HE was NOT. Americans like to cry "God bless America". It's the same cry as Nazis used. Has He blessed? We've not won a war since...

    The thief on the cross misconceptions

    ok Good conscience as a result of ... what? A bath? It is the blood of Christ crucified and appropriated by faith that saves. This application of blood has as its parallel the 10th plague of Egypt. All who applied lamb's blood BY FAITH were saved from death. Baptism, according to some...

    What does it mean to be born again?

    The question asked "What does it mean to be born again?" has resulted in a confused mess of Biblically illiterate gibberish. Here's the real reason, established by context of the Bible, not secular rubbish. It's about the Image of God. The popular LIE quoted by almost everybody is that we...

    The thief on the cross misconceptions

    Sounds like you're picking at nits here by linking Baptism to forgiveness of the thief on the cross. Your logic seems to be accurate on the surface of things, but since the entire subject is so far off the rails it's difficult to understand why anyone would take the time to argue the point...

    An Omniscient God Negates Free Will

    omniscience - "the quality of having or seeming to have unlimited knowledge" (Cambridge dictionary) The problem with the original argument here is the assumption by the writer that a quality of Omniscience would negate free will. One may respond to this by asking what proofs or EVIDENCE is...

    Jesus prophesied that Sabbath would be kept by Christians until His return

    You misunderstand because you've been taught to deny the efficacy and the purpose of the LAW (of Moses). It should be clearly understood that neither Jesus nor anyone else abolished the LAW. (Matthew 5:17) Was Jesus lying when he spoke the words quoted by Matthew? If not, then; THE LAW STILL...

    Jesus prophesied that Sabbath would be kept by Christians until His return

    Again, I've not made war on anyone. I think I made that statement earlier. Did you read it? NOW UNABLE to make your point by scripture, history or Biblical reference you now resort to attacks upon my character - ad hominem. Thank you for admitting defeat. Since you can't make a point any...

    Jesus prophesied that Sabbath would be kept by Christians until His return

    To further refine, not oppose, your effort at counting years and times and epochs I'd like to point out that ALL ancient cultures marked the passage of time on LUNAR calendars. Muslims still do. Jews still do, but they complicate matters by tracking BOTH lunar & solar times on their...

    Jesus prophesied that Sabbath would be kept by Christians until His return

    Thank you for your references quoted above. I wouldn't take the time to look them up, but they do serve well to illustrate how the post-modern church has debauched the gospel and itself. I'm not the one making war here. It's my intent to teach those who know not the LAW and who resist God's...

    Russia says a bigger war is coming this spring

    I completely agree with you. Both sides are stumbling toward something too terrible to comprehend......and NOBODY wants to talk peace. My fear is that Vlad 'the hammer' Putin is becoming desperate...so desperate that he'll forget his own counsel and use weapons that haven't been used on a...

    Jesus prophesied that Sabbath would be kept by Christians until His return

    Well written, but badly justified. You wrote that Jesus is the Messiah, son of God, the lamb that was slain...... That's a foundation? It's an extension of the LAW. Jesus didn't say He was son of God. Others said it of Him. Jesus said He was Son of Man. THAT identification has a very...

    Jesus prophesied that Sabbath would be kept by Christians until His return

    Well written, but badly documented. You need to study the Bible. You wrote that Jesus is the Messiah, son of God, the lamb that was slain...... That's a foundation? It's an extension of the LAW. The LAW of Moses IS the foundation of the gospel. Jesus didn't say He was son of God. Others...

    Jesus prophesied that Sabbath would be kept by Christians until His return

    Is it rigidity to hold to God's LAW, to refrain from murder, lying, stealing, adultery and REFUSE to keep the sabbath? Let's try to remember shall we that the ORIGINAL QUESTION for this thread was "Jesus prophesied that Sabbath would be kept by Christians until His return." If you've...

    Jesus prophesied that Sabbath would be kept by Christians until His return

    Understood. You no doubt waste your time by reading the Bible either. But you should.......you should. that's me, hollering from the choir loft...

    Jesus prophesied that Sabbath would be kept by Christians until His return

    Are you joking? Are you really THAT unaware of the Bible? Are you really so opposed to God's LAW that you deliberately support any argument against it even if untrue? 3,500 years ago God gave His LAW to Moses. Here is the LAW regarding the sabbath: "Remember the Sabbath day by keeping it...

    Jesus prophesied that Sabbath would be kept by Christians until His return

    You are using political forms and errant accusations to make a point. Which is what, actually?? MY POINT is that Christians DO NOT KEEP THE SABBATH. My foundation for this assertion is God's LAW, which specifies the sabbath is the 7th day of the week. Didn't you read that part? Freedom to...
