    One baptism. Not two.

    1 Pet. 1:3 Praised be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, for according to his great mercy he gave us a new birth to a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead, 4 to an incorruptible and undefiled and unfading inheritance. It is reserved in the heavens for you...

    You are not my judge ... Don't tell me how I will be judge or based on what. Take care of yourself. Have a good one. :)

    One baptism. Not two.

    Do you think that these people that Jesus is talking about here were not convinced within themselves that they were born again? :Oh no: Luke 13:24 “Exert yourselves vigorously to get in through the narrow door, because many, I tell you, will seek to get in but will not be able. 25 When the...

    Yes. And some people don't even know who is the Father of those born again Christians ... Some think it has to do with Jesus, but it doesn't. As long as people don't know what really is to be born again, all they say is just imagination. Anyone can say I am born again. Words are just words.

    One baptism. Not two.

    I have the same God Jesus has, do you? John 20:17 Jesus said to her: “Stop clinging to me, for I have not yet ascended to the Father. But go to my brothers and say to them, ‘I am ascending to my Father and your Father and to my God and your God.’” Rev. 3:12 The one who conquers—I will make him...

    'No Immortal Soul'? (Challenge)

    Eze. 18:4 Look! All the souls—to me they belong. As the soul of the father so likewise the soul of the son—to me they belong. The soul that is sinning—it itself will die.

    No how do you know; that was not my question ... you can imagine whatever you want and that won't change the reality (Matt. 7:21-23). Tell me something: do you think that in order to be a real Christian in the first century, the apostles of Jesus were needed for something, or could each one be...

    One baptism. Not two.

    Ok, then. Now tell me: how do I know that you really are "spirit baptized" and that is not just your own imaginary status? :contemplate: Mmmh, I think you didn't read the text I quoted in its Biblical context: John 13:3 So Jesus, knowing that the Father had given all things into his hands and...

    One baptism. Not two.

    So why are you discouraging others from being baptized in water like Jesus did? By saying that water baptism is not necessary, you are trying to nullify the example of Jesus for others who want to imitate him. John 13:15 For I set the pattern for you, that just as I did to you, you should also do.

    I see you don't follow Jesus' example.

    Our souls apart from our bodies

    The Bible says that immortality is a prize to the brothers of Christ. 1 Cor. 15:53 For this which is corruptible must put on incorruption, and this which is mortal must put on immortality. 54 But when this which is corruptible puts on incorruption and this which is mortal puts on immortality...

    One baptism. Not two.

    The idea of "one baptism" (supposedly baptism "in spirit") is obviously an attack on organized religious communities. Anyone could say that they have been spirit baptized and born again... but no one would have proof of that. However, it is clear that first-century Christians had to be baptized...

    We are judged by works, not by faith

    Being saved can be seen from the point of view of applying for that salvation, not because that salvation was already obtained, since one has been saved from something that has already happened, not from something that is going to happen and is still in the future: Rom. 8:24 For we were saved...

    We are judged by works, not by faith

    Rom. 2:3 But do you suppose, O man, that while you judge those who practice such things and yet you do them, you will escape the judgment of God? 4 Or do you despise the riches of his kindness and forbearance and patience, because you do not know that God in his kindness is trying to lead you to...

    We are judged by works, not by faith

    According to Jesus that is false. Matt. 7:21 “Not everyone saying to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter into the Kingdom of the heavens, but only the one doing the will of my Father who is in the heavens will. 22 Many will say to me in that day: ‘Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name, and...

    Our souls apart from our bodies

    It is inconsistent to quote Paul with the intention of denying what Paul himself says elsewhere. Did Paul really believe that when the dead in Christ die they would immediately go to live with Christ in heaven? Ask yourself: did Paul believe that Christians who had died before were already in...

    Tongues ( 'sign' gifts ) did/did not cease?

    No one is free of sin ... and still lying is one of the causes of a person not entering the new world that God will bring (Rev. 21:8; 22:15; 1 Tim. 1:8-11). Anyway, this topic is not about LYING.

    Tongues ( 'sign' gifts ) did/did not cease?

    Rev. 21:8 "But as for the cowards and those without faith and those who are disgusting in their filth and murderers and the sexually immoral and those practicing spiritism and idolaters and all the liars, their portion will be in the lake that burns with fire and sulfur. This means the second...

    Tongues ( 'sign' gifts ) did/did not cease?

    Sorry, but honestly: I don't have to believe any internet story. We got a saying in Spanish: "el papel aguanta lo que le pongan." that is something like paper holds whatever they write on it.
