Depends on which church you mean by "institutional church" I have been a believer for over 50 years and I have never agreed 100% with any church. The disagreements are minor,. Having said that we must be a memeber of a local assembly as is commanded in Pauls letters and in Hebrews 10&12. We...

You need to get over yourself and focus solely on who Jesus is and what He has done for you! If you have emotional or psychological issues, take your meds and live according to what jesus says and not your silly accusations say.

Sorry, but no one can be saved without trusting in the death and resurrection of Jesus, or however in their language HIS name is pronounced. Without knowing Jesus and trusting in His death and resurrection- one is lost no matter how "religious" they appear.

Proverbs 26:5 Answer a fool according to his folly, lest he be wise in his own conceit. Your insulting is more subtle than Behold but you do insult . You post foolosih responses the you should know better. You reject what a person says about themselves and continue to react according to is a...

That is incorrect. Jesus ascended sometime after Mary saw HIm risen in the garden and a week later when He appeared to the Apostles with Thomas with them. Remembering jesus is the OT fulfilment of the high priest, then the following he did in obedience 1. Could not be touched lest He be...

Not so we would be obedient but as an act of obedience. Jesus commanded the apostles to go worldwide baptizing (with water) to all nations not just Jews. Phillip baptized the Ethiopian Eunuch. It is simply showing obedience to th ecommand of Matt. 28. That is not the spirit baptism, that...

That was John the Baptists baptism. Paul baptized the philippian jailer and his family and the few mentioned Corinthians

Without being baptized by the Spirit, one is not saved. Water Baptism is something the church has been doing since after pentecost. It is a sign of obedience and discipleship. And a public declaration we have committed to following Jesus.

Baptism is for a believer after they have received the gospel..

You casn't see how you have twisted the Word of God and made it the word of Gods grace. When we leave accepting what is written is true- and then have to expalin what God really meant- we are promoting our own opinioon and not the word of God. You never proved your explanations, though I...

YOur last line is the first nice and true thing you have written about me since we engaged each other in discussion.

Don't interp[ret but accept and understand. 666 is the number of his name or it will be his name or it will be a mark. All the guesses and interpretations sin ce JOhn wrote this are human ego driven. The world will know what teh mark is, whois the antichrist and what is his name and how it...

Wow! don't know what all that meta[physical stuff means! But we fight demons and Satan with the Word of God only! It is the only offensive weapon god gave us to attack evil. Eph. 6

Then you reject the Word of God as written. Jesus claimed equality with the Father. John 5:18 Therefore the Jews sought the more to kill him, because he not only had broken the sabbath, but said also that God was his Father, making himself equal with God. John 5:23 That all men should honour...

Because water baptism is a command of Jesus. are you here saying Paul would directly disobey this command of Jesus? Matthew 28:18-20 King James Version 18 And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth. 19 Go ye therefore, and teach all...

I will let ytou ask Paul. Scripture doesn't say so I will not make any guesses as to why he baptized just a few as far as written.

The gospel every christian preaches should not include baptism. It is merely placing trust in teh death and resurrection of Jesus for the forgiceness of sins. But Baptism is an ordinance the church must uphold. Matthew 28:18-20 King James Version 18 And Jesus came and spake unto them...

Well iuf you are talking about teh good news preached priot to the events of Matthew 12, I agree.

And therein is the guilt of you rinsultin! But you are too enamored in the caricature you have made of me and attack that instead of dealing with the real me. So as you do not hold to any of the fiv epoints as you in Caps wrote then if any ask of what you believe I will openly respond this...

I do not believe your commentary of the bible, that is what you gave. You have given eisegesis where as I have given you exegesis. If you believe Romans 3 is just historical, then do you hold that some are righteous now? Not all have sinned? Unsaved throats are open sepulchres? There is...
