    John Calvin and Calvinism.

    The Bible makes it clear, we are the ones who choose to be saved or lost. God does the saving. God allows us to choose His free grace or reject His offer. If we cannot choose to obey God, why is God longsuffering for the lost? Why is He waiting on us, if it His choice? Romans 2:4 Or do you...

    Tradition!

    That's strange coming from a catholic. Are you not aware of the continuous every changing doctrines of the catholic church? The Lords church began in 30ad The catholic church is a "Johnny come lately" To recent to be the new testament church. Acts 20:29-30 For I know this, that after my...

    Tradition!

    You're an eyewitness to Jesus' ressurection? You know why Jehovahs Witness cannot be Gods witness? Because they never witnessed anything! The apostles are the eye-witness of Jesus' ressurection. Your church is in the same boat as the JW's No person that is not mentioned in scripture is...

    Tradition!

    The three characteristics which qualified the apostles 1 Acts 1:21:21-22 ; 10:39-41 To be an apostle they had to accompanied Jesus all the time that He went in and out among His disciples. Theses apostles seen the ressurection and heard Jesus preach. No one can meet the first qualification...

    Tradition!

    Simple, the apostles are no longer necessary. Why did Jesus choose apostles? Why did He "need" these men? Answer, because the Bible ie word of God was not yet written! No one in the first century had a book to learn who God is, and know the gospel plan of salvation. Mark 16:20 explains why the...

    Tradition!

    No way! You are not aware that there were qualifications for the apostles. One simple fact disproves there are apostles today. To be an apostle you must have been an eye witness to Jesus' ressurection. Therefore no one today can meet the qualifications to be an apostle of Christ. To teach...

    Tradition!

    No, I understand. Now, prove there are apostles today? Prove your doctrine of "apostolic succession".

    Sin Unto Death

    Romans 6 teaches we put off sins of our old life in baptism. Romans 6 teaches we are raised from the waters of baptism born again in Christ. Contact multiple Greek scholars and ask which baptism is Romans 6:1-7. It is baptizo ie water immersion. Make sure you ask them if there is any passage...

    Sin Unto Death

    Peter taught baptism is not a physical washing. Peter taught it is a spiritual cleansing. 1Peter 3:20-21 Who formerly were disobedient, when the divine longsuffering waited in the days of Noah, while the ark was being prepared, in which a few, that is eight souls were saved by water. There is...

    Sin Unto Death

    In the salvation doctrine of calvinism faith in Christ does not save. I know you're a calvinist Johann so you have no understanding of how Jesus' gospel saves mankind. Your salvation has absolutely nothing to do with faith in Christ. Nothing to do with hearing the gospel of Christ. When does...

    Sin Unto Death

    Friend, I hope you know I am not interested in winning arguments. I am interested in you knowing the truth. Exactly when did this occur? At the moment you believed? Are you aware that "Holy Spirit baptism" never saved anyone? Do you know that "Holy Spirit baptism " never represented the death...

    Sin Unto Death

    Quote me where I said a "pastor" had to be the baptizer? Give qualifications for one to be a baptizer in Jesus' gospel? You wont find any. So simple to prove you are incorrect. Go find multiple Greek scholars Seek them out ask them which baptism is Colossians 2:12. I already know what they will...

    Sin Unto Death

    Are you a Greek scholar? If so what college, colleges did you get your degrees? Man is not baptized for the same reason Jesus was obviously. Mark 1:4-5 John came baptizing in the wilderness and preaching a baptism of repentance for the remission of sins. Then all the land of Judea and those...

    Logical reason to believe in God

    Colossians 2:8 Beware lest anyone cheat you through philosophy and empty deceit, according to the tradition of men, according to the basic principles of the world, and not according to Christ. -9 For in Him dwells all the fullness of the Godhead bodily.

    Sin Unto Death

    You only prove you are not a Greek scholar. Now prove your position that Colossians 2:12 is Holy Spirit baptism! You will not contact Greek scholars to affirm your position because you are not interested in truth. I have friends that have contacted multiple Greek scholars on the word baptizo...

    Sin Unto Death

    Apparently you know the Greek better than Thayer, baptizo: to dip, pludge into a liquid. Now give me one verse where Holy Spirit baptism is commanded by Jesus? Only water baptism is commanded! Commanded by Jesus, Mark 16:15-16 Commanded by Peter, Acts 10:45 ; 47-48 Can anyone forbid water...
