    How the Holy Spirit Does Not Speak in Ministry

    Where you are in error, is that everything Jesus said and did was what He saw the Father do and say, therefore Jesus on earth did not speak of Himself, or on His own initiative, etc., etc., and thus the Holy Spirit doesn’t either, then, or now. Joh 8:28 Then said Jesus unto them, When ye have...

    How does God Create Evil

    The New Testament was penned in a foreign language called koine Greek - before anyone makes a doctrine out of one scripture, they should do some study first. God doesn’t create malevolent evil - he does send affliction, disaster, and calamity against His enemies, which is the better rendering...

    Death penalty.

    Genesis puts forth a death penalty for murderers: Genesis 9:5 And for your lifeblood I will require a reckoning: from every beast I will require it and from man. From his fellow man I will require a reckoning for the life of man. Gen 9:6 “Whoever sheds the blood of man, by man shall his...

    The Gift Of The Sabbath - Is It For Us? - NEW AND IMPROVED??

    Hebrews 4 is not about the sabbath day. The rest talked about there is not a day.

    Christians are not under the New Covenant

    Easy. In the new covenant: Heb 8:10 For this is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel after those days, declares the Lord: I will put my laws into their minds, and write them on their hearts, and I will be their God, and they shall be my people. Heb 8:11 And they shall not...

    Tongues

    That’s a lot of words just to have it wrong. Simon saw that laying on of hands imparted the Holy Spirit. The 120 believers were already saved by faith, before the Holy Spirit fell on them, with the evidence of speaking in tongues, at Pentecost. You have a theory, but I have experience...

    Christians are not under the New Covenant

    So? They are given separate from the ten commands, and were never called the covenant on two tables of stone, as the Decalogue was. The two love commands were the true essence of Gods law, not the Decalogue, which was the letter that kills and brought death and condemnation to men, per 2...

    Christians are not under the New Covenant

    Covenant and Testament mean the same thing - the New Testament is the new covenant, and zhebrews 8,9, and 10 make clear that the New Testament is the last will and Testament of Jesus, and like all wills, took effect with the death of the testator, which is Jesus Christ. The new covenant and...

    Christians are not under the New Covenant

    Romans 11 which I cited, explains why salvation came to gentiles- to make Israel jealous. The promised Jeremiah 31 new covenant with the houses of Israel and Judah, was brought to the chosen, elect nation of Israel by their Jewish Messiah, Y'eshua. There’s no church or gentile covenant- they...

    Christians are not under the New Covenant

    All believers in Jesus, both Greek (gentile) and Jew, are in the Jeremiah 31 new covenant.

    Christians are not under the New Covenant

    The ten commands, called the ministry of death and condemnation and the letter which kills, given to Moses on the mountain - which has ended per 2 Corinthians 3, have been superseded by the superior two love commands.

    Christians are not under the New Covenant

    Yes, it’s quite accurat, to whit: Mat 10:5 These twelve Jesus sent forth, and commanded them, saying, Go not into the way of the Gentiles, and into any city of the Samaritans enter ye not: Mat 10:6 But go rather to the lost sheep of the house of Israel. Mat 15:24 But he answered and said...

    Tongues

    Paul said not to speak in tongues in church without an interpreter, yet so obviously prayed in tongues privately too, because he said when he prayed in the spirit, he had no understanding of what was being prayed: 1 Corinthians 14:14 (KJV) For if I pray in an unknown tongue, my spirit...

    Tongues

    The United Pentecostal Church - not to be confused with regular Pentecostals, claim you must speak in tongues when water baptized, or you’re not saved - which is absolutely wrong. How many languages Paul spoke is irrelevant, because when he spoke in tongues, he had no idea what he was saying...

    Tongues

    Paul said tongues are NOT a sign for the believer, but for the unbeliever. Tongues of course can’t be a sign FOR believers, because it’s a sign that FOLLOWS those who believe. No believer looks at tongues as a sign FOR them, but speaking IN tongues is the sign they are spirit filled.

    Tongues

    Shes a Baptist. She has never said one word about tongues in her teaching, and when I heard her speak of how she was called into the teaching ministry, she said nothing whatsoever about tongues.

    Tongues

    There is a filling of the Holy Spirit aka baptism of the Holy Spirit that occurs by a spirit filled believer laying hands on them, and speaking in tongues is the evidence they received it. Act 19:1 And it came to pass, that, while Apollos was at Corinth, Paul having passed through the upper...

    Tongues

    Wrong again. Women can preach, women can teach women and children, women can minister to women with every spiritual gift available - they are only restricted from having authority over a congregation that has men in it. And they can certainly pray in tongues as their private prayer language at...

    Tongues

    Once again you show your ignorance First of all, prophecy is a better gift to use in church, but so what? Paul also outlines the use of tongues in the church assembly, told the church he wanted them all to speak in tongues, and told them to forbid NOT speaking in tongues, not to mention you...

    Tongues

    It’s a mystery to those who hear the unknown tongue that they don’t understand spoken, not a mystery to God. DUH!
