    Thinking Errors

    -- I have had this conversation with other Christians before. Those that criticize the practice of homosexuality are sometimes surprised to find that God is just as displeased with adultery, divorce, shoplifting, cheating on your taxes, rumor mongoring, etc. etc. etc.

    The Baptism With The Holy Spirit (A Scriptural Study)

    -- Honestly Anastacia, you really need to make up your mind. On 10/29 you said: "You reject the Truth. I've tried to show you. I'm done now discussing this with you. " That was your response when I provided scripture supporting the idea of speaking in tongues and prophecy. Since you have...

    Christian "gay Bashing"

    -- I could not disagree more. "Go ye and preach the Gospel to all nations..." If the Gospel says something is wrong we are not to sit and watch people take that path. We are to tell them with love what God expects, make sure they have at least heard the Word, then let them make their own...

    The Baptism With The Holy Spirit (A Scriptural Study)

    "Acts 19:8-9 Paul entered the synagogue and spoke boldly there for three months, arguing persuasively about the kingdom of God. But some of them became obstinate: they refused to believe and publicly maligned the Way. So Paul left them." - Anastacia -- Putting yourself on the same level as...

    The Baptism With The Holy Spirit (A Scriptural Study)

    "You reject the Truth. I've tried to show you. I'm done now discussing this with you." - Anastacia Translation: You have no way to refute the scriptures I have provided. The Bible is powerful stuff in the face of those who do not know it.

    The Baptism With The Holy Spirit (A Scriptural Study)

    -- Here we go again... Please actually read this this time and try to focus: From 10/27: "If I speak in the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I am only a resounding gong or a clanging cymbal." - 1 Cor. 13:1 -- Read it yourself. It says that if you do these things but do not...

    The Baptism With The Holy Spirit (A Scriptural Study)

    "In fact, the next scriptures tell us what will happen to you if you don't have love but still have gifts." - Anastacia -- You just said it yourself: "but still have gifts." You are taking that one specific verse - 1 Cor. 13:8 - completely out of context. If you read it in conjunction with...

    The Baptism With The Holy Spirit (A Scriptural Study)

    "The Bible tells us that prophecies will cease, tongues will be stilled, and knowledge will pass away. See 1 Corinthians 13:8." - Anastacia -- Anastacia, will you please open your eyes? I have already addressed this with you, but you have chosen to ignore it. From 10/27: As far as you...

    The Baptism With The Holy Spirit (A Scriptural Study)

    "Being filled with the Holy Spirit does not mean people will speak in tongues.The scriptures explain that to us" - Anastacia -- You do not have to speak in tongues to be filled with the Holy Spirit. Millions of people worldwide are filled with the Holy Spirit but do not speak in tongues. They...

    The Baptism With The Holy Spirit (A Scriptural Study)

    "LOL -- I am not the one judging you -- Christ has told us that God will judge you based upon your refusal to receive His Words! Have you not read?? Joh 12:48He that rejecteth me, and receiveth not my words, hath one that judgeth him: the word that I have spoken, the same shall judge him in the...

    The Baptism With The Holy Spirit (A Scriptural Study)

    -- I am sorry Anastacia, but you are taking it entirely out of context. It states flat out that those things will happen IF you do not have love in your heart. It really is that simple. Please quit compromising the scripture in order to fulfill your incorrect point. "If I speak in the...

    The Baptism With The Holy Spirit (A Scriptural Study)

    -- Ah yes, apparently "Judge not let ye be judged" doesn't apply to you. To call everything you do not agree with "Satanic" shows you limited scope of reasoning. Plus, you have never heard me say I that I believe in the Rapture. I have said that those who criticize those that believe in it...

    The Baptism With The Holy Spirit (A Scriptural Study)

    -- Said the blind man lol. They have been shown and reshown. You have also spoken with people here, myself included, who have experienced them in praise and worship of the Lord Jesus Christ. Wise up.

    Opinion / Judgments

    Bud is correct. Jesus spoke more about the dangers of Hell than the wonders of Heaven while He walked the earth. The reason ties in with why He became flesh in the first place...to die to pay the price for our sins so that if we accept Him we can avoid hell. To say that hell doesn't exist or...

    The Baptism With The Holy Spirit (A Scriptural Study)

    If you want to believe in fallacies, it is certainly your right to do so. However, please do not denigrate Christ by claiming your damned religion is 'Christian' - Watchman -- Right back at you, big guy. There is none so blind as to those that will not see. Sounds like your membership card to...

    Opinion / Judgments

    Maybe I shouldn't say anything...but, I don't believe the media has anything to do with why Christians are judged more. I believe it is bec it is typical for Christians to be pushy, judgmental, socially immature people imposing their beliefs on others while not practicing what they...

    The Baptism With The Holy Spirit (A Scriptural Study)

    "I did open my eyes -- it is the same drivel all tongue-twisters and charismatics throw at Christians. It is time for you to open your eyes -- your religion is not Bible based." -- Watchman -- Sorry Watchman but my "religion" is simply Bible-based Christianity. It seems that your mind is made...

    The Baptism With The Holy Spirit (A Scriptural Study)

    "Well, I met the burden of proof -- there is no such thing as 'spiritual gifts' in the Bible manuscripts." - Watchman -- Watchman, read the post just before this one. Then open your eyes.

    Advice Requested: Who Really Was Jesus?

    No assurance is necessary. If they are interested in fact, they will learn that themselves. If they - as in most cases - have determined that their faith is the only way - then nothing other than prayer will save them.
