The central debate in this thread is Is the first such Washing good enough? or Do we keep getting Washed as often as we need to? That is where it goes back to the old debate of Unconditional vs. Conditional Salvation.

(That was just a joke response for being offered brussel sprouts...)

"I will put My law in their minds, and write it on their hearts; and I will be their God, and they shall be My people." Jeremiah 31:33 NKJV

Then you are back to Unconditional vs. Conditional Salvation. (I think that neither of us have anything new that we can add to that.)

"All things are lawful for me, but not all things are helpful; all things are lawful for me, but not all things edify." 1 Corinthians 10:23 NKJV "All things are lawful for me, but all things are not helpful. All things are lawful for me, but I will not be brought under the power of any." 1...

I can usually understand hyperbole, but I think (this time) you will have to draw a picture...

Clean Before My Lord, Honeytree (1985)

I see Man's separation from God (and subsequent creation of the Church) as being comparable to "And the Lord God caused a deep sleep to fall upon Adam; and while he slept, He took one of his ribs or a part of his side and closed up the [place with] flesh. And the rib or part of his side which...

Consider You shall not murder, or You shall not commit adultery, From the Ten Commandments. By continuing to live in sin (without being washed), we are guaranteed eternal damnation for disregarding them. It is easy to recognize that the person murdered or the person who is cheated on are...

Being autistic, I sometimes take things too literally. There once was an ad that had shown a picture of a pretty woman with the words beneath, "Do You Suffer From Low Testosterone?" I remember thinking, "Wow! That guy really DOES have low testosterone...!" :confused:

My perspective (from inside the Kingdom) has gone from "If you do this, you will be condemned," to "If you do this you will hurt yourself (and others) unnecessarily." The second rationale keeps me from the first, but the first still exists for those who don't get the second.

2 or 2 not. There is no 3. (Say the numbers in French, you must.)

Remember, Curiosity killed the cat... (then fled to Mars to avoid prosecution...!) (This kind of humor is called a paraprosdokian. ) Some more... Mary had a little lamb, a little rabbit, too,... but her favorite, most of all, was the turkey stew. From a bumper sticker, "I miss my wife...

White As Snow, Maranatha! Singers (1997)

That would depend on what the minimum standard for the designation "Christian[ity]" is here. For most places that I visit, it is alignment with the Nicene Creed, which affirms Trinity. I have attended one Oneness church and their contention seems to be one of semantics over the decidedly...

@farouk In some cases, the figures are as I bought them. In many cases, I took the heads from one body (that was useless for me) and put them on other bodies that had duplicate GI Joe or Max Steel heads. I, primarily, use one body type for the ladies, but they, too, had a limited set of original...

You should be able to edit it (but it might reset the votes when you do so).
