    Water Baptism

    *** Jesus did not establish the church for today under grace. Paul did. 1 Cor 3:10-12 10 According to the grace of God which was given to me, as a wise master builder """""" I """" have laid the foundation, and another builds on it. But let each one take heed how he builds on it. 11 For no...

    Water Baptism

    *** Mary, I already have the writings that are recording in the Bible. The writings you are talking about are those of men. If God had wanted them to be in the Bible He would have put them there.

    Water Baptism

    *** All you can do is write your opinions just as I am doing. My studies, and threads on water baptism and repentance is as I see it; my opinions as to what the scriptures say. They reflect what I believe. You can continue to poost the same thing (see your reply #2) if you wish but I have...

    Water Baptism

    *** This means nothing. See my thread with the title "Evidence of a great doctrinal apostasy". It started even before Paul died and the RCC made it a religion.

    Peter's sermon, Acts 2:31-38 on Pentecost:

    *** And you can take your opinions somewhere else too. Your threats are just an empty knee jerk reply.

    The Inquisitions

    *** None of them. Jesus didn't set up a religion that has set itself up as being between God and man. To hear the churches a person has to be in a religious church to be saved. Religions demand that a person do something in their religion to give them salvation. They do not see that Jesus...

    Water Baptism

    *** It began as a water washing required under the Jewish law. My study answers your question by giving the scriptures that say it was symbolic. So you think everything can be debunked by other scriptures and of course you get to pick them. That is what most posters do. I already did that in...

    True Repentance:

    I believe that repentance is necessary for the child of God. But that repentance is not a ritual that is done when they think they have sinned. I believe in a repentant attitude, an attitude of continually acknowledging, to God, that the sins of the flesh are always present in the mind. Having...

    Water Baptism

    Two places in the Bible that I do not feel support baptismal regeneration (water baptism necessary for salvation) are as follows. 1 Pet 3:18-22 18 For Christ died for sins once for all, the righteous for the unrighteous, to bring you to God. He was put to death in the body but made alive by...

    Peter's sermon, Acts 2:31-38 on Pentecost:

    **&* Obviously you don't know that this is my thread (blog). There are no scriptures I refuse to contemplate in their own context. If he wants to study water baptism or repentance then I will address them in the context of a study on them.

    Peter's sermon, Acts 2:31-38 on Pentecost:

    I know what you are doing. But it is outside of the OP. Start your own thread. What you are doing is trying to set your scriptures up as canceling the ones I gave.

    The great doctrinal apostasy

    *** Sorry Mary but I do not think Jesus is pleased by the religious theologies of man. It was the religious that persecuted the prophets and killed some of them. It was the religious that had Jesus killed. It was the religious that stoned Stephen to death. It was the religious Jews who...

    Peter's sermon, Acts 2:31-38 on Pentecost:

    *** There is nothing in Rom 10:8 13 about an act of water baptism or repentance. If you think there is show it to me in the verses under consideration in Rom 10:8 -13. Don't go all over the Bible showing other verses since they are NOT the verses I said did not include water baptism or...

    Peter's sermon, Acts 2:31-38 on Pentecost:

    *** When Jesus returns and sets up the promised kingdom of the Jews and reigns for 1000 years the Jews will witness to the uttermost parts of the world that Jesus is Lord. It is at that time that Jesus will restore the the kingdom to Israel.
  15. H. Richard

    Peter's sermon, Acts 2:31-38 on Pentecost:

    *** Since Peter did not know that Gentiles would be included until Acts 10:45 why do you insist that Peter was including the Gentiles in Acts 2 ? Acts 10:44-45 44 While Peter was still speaking these words, the Holy Spirit fell upon all those who heard the word. 45 And those of the...

    Peter's sermon, Acts 2:31-38 on Pentecost:

    *** Jesus said He only came to the house of Israel. Let me make it clear that Jesus Christ, by His own words, did not come to minister to the Gentiles, nor was His message "the kingdom gospel" sent to the Gentiles. He did not offer the "kingdom of heaven" TO the Gentiles. The following...

    Peter's sermon, Acts 2:31-38 on Pentecost:

    I believe that Peter's sermon has been taken out of context and used as a blanket sermon about repenting and being water baptized. This article is my attempt to prove that it has to be read “IN CONTEXT.“ (was it to the Jews and the Gentiles, or just to the Jews?) Acts 2:31 38 (NKJV) 31 he...

    The great doctrinal apostasy

    *** According to you no one can understand the scriptures. But of course you can just say they don't mean anything they say, right?? I suppose that means you don't believe they mean anything too. Just what do you believe; what do you place your faith in? I don't really expect you to answer...

    The great doctrinal apostasy

    *** A smoke screen to keep people from believing the words in the scriptures. If you don't want to accept it as written just said it doesn't mean what it says and change the focus. They also do that with the words """hidden in God"".

    The great doctrinal apostasy

    *** Same gospel??? Then why are they separated in these verses? Show me where Jesus and the 12 said we are saved by the shed blood of Jesus on the cross. Jesus and the 12 preached that Jesus was the promised King of the promised Jewish kingdom on this earth. They still preached the law...
