Actually besides Paul, Barnabas and Apollos were referred to as apostles. Barnabas in Acts 14:14, and Apollos in 1 Cor 4:1-9

I have responded in that thread starting @ #23. And others have responded here foolishly as they always do out of ignorance claiming one scripture trumps or nullifies another proving they don't knowcwhat they're talking about and simply like to blab.

The "one flimsy proof-text" is enough since it comes from God's word, penned by one of his inspired writers. It's in plain English and crystal clear. Acts 2:38 38Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye...

Actually JimBeam is wrong and contrary to scripture. Baptism, on the contrary, IS the means by which we all get the Holy Ghost/Spirit Acts 2:38 38Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the...

Goodbye, I'm done with you. You make NO sense and don't know what you're talking about.

Plain and simple English. I fear you can't read and understand. You are not disagreeing with me! What I quoted were not my words or thoughts, but rather those of the writers of the bible, inspired of God. That's who you are in disagreement with.

1st Peter3:21 21The like figure whereunto even baptism doth also now save us (not the putting away of the filth of the flesh, but the answer of a good conscience toward God,) by the resurrection of Jesus Christ: Acts 22:16 16And now why tarriest thou? arise, and be baptized, and wash away...

The gospel is simple as God intended, so simple that the people in biblical times could understand it. You've complicated and distorted it.

Acts 8:26-39 the facts - The eunuch was preached Christ - The eunuch asked about baptism in water because they were near water and what would hinder him from being baptized, so obviously, Philip also told him about baptism and its necessity to be saved - Philip told him if believed he could...

You very obviously don't understand scripture at all.

No, any water, spring, creek, the Jordan River, etc. You're baptized into Christ. That's the method of becoming part of the body of Christ, by being baptized into it which is the church.

Acts 22:16 16And now why tarriest thou? arise, and be baptized, and wash away thy sins, calling on the name of the Lord. Yes, it was salsa he was baptized in not water.

What exactly is "the spiritual baptism performed by God" and what specific scripture(s) describes this and how it's done?

What knowledge is being referred to. Back then it was knowledge they didn't have such as we do today with the written word.

Mark 16:16 rewritten "He that believeth and dyes cloth shall be saved--------"

The gifts have all ceased as 1 cor 13:8 says they would. They were needed then for a variety of reasons, but not now. Yes, none of those gifts, or manifestations of the Spirit, are present today.

You obviously didn't read the text carefully. Start with the below Luke and continue to Acts 1 also below. Luke 24 starting @ verse 33 33And they rose up the same hour, and returned to Jerusalem, and found the ELEVEN gathered together, and them that were with them...

You have it wrong. Only the 11, not the 120 spoke in other tongues. This was part of the power from on high promised to the 11 by the Lord as recorded in Luke 24:49. Read the entire text of Luke and read carefully Acts 2 and it's clear that it's just the 11. And what's your point about the Lord...
