    Acts 2:38 has been abandoned by Christianity

    I implied nothing of the sort, but I did prove by scriptures that water baptism is for those already saved, and not to be saved, BTW if water baptism is for salvation, then Jesus was saved by having John baptize Him, especially since Johns baptism was for repentance. You need to rethink your...

    To Fast Or Not To Fast That Is The Question

    Full disclosure: I’m guilty of not fasting. It’s not a sin not to fast, but I know that when the apostles were criticized for not fasting, Jesus said: Mat 9:15 And Jesus said to them, “Can the wedding guests mourn as long as the bridegroom is with them? The days will come when the bridegroom...

    Acts 2:38 has been abandoned by Christianity

    Per Acts 3:19, it’s the repenting that gets our sins forgiven, backed up by Acts 10, where Peter says those hearing him preach had been filled with the Holy Spirit, and so could then be water baptized, in Acts 10:44-48. The Holy Spirit is not given to the unsaved, thus they were saved by faith...

    Acts 2:38 has been abandoned by Christianity

    Absolutely not, it’s the repentance that remits sins, not water baptism, which is the outward washing of the body that can be seen, that is symbolic of the inward washing and regeneration by the Holy Spirit, that can’t be seen. You have to look at all scriptures on a subject, not just the ones...

    Acts 2:38 has been abandoned by Christianity

    It’s the calling on the name of the Lord that does the saving - but you’d know that if you’d read every scripture on salvation, such as Romans 10:13 that says WHOSOEVER SHALL CALL UPON THE NAME OF THE LORD, shall BE SAVED. Water baptism is for those saved by faith , not to get saved.

    Acts 2:38 has been abandoned by Christianity

    Already dealt with.p in post #40. Per Acts 3:19, it’s the repenting that gets our sins forgiven, backed up by Acts 10, where Peter says those hearing him preach had been filled with the Holy Spirit, and so could then be water baptized, in Acts 10:44-48. The Holy Spirit is not given to the...

    Acts 2:38 has been abandoned by Christianity

    Course, not coarse. I’d like to ask the dean why they allow an atheist to teach there.

    Acts 2:38 has been abandoned by Christianity

    Except the two terms are the same, per the word FORGIVENESS here: Act 13:38 Be G2077  it known G1110  unto you G5213  therefore, G3767  men G435  and brethren, G80  that G3754  through G1223  this man G5127  is preached G2605  unto you G5213  the forgiveness G859  of sins: G266  G859...

    Birthed Son's

    The only created sons of God are the angels, called sons of God in Job. We are not created sons of God, we are adopted sons of God, via choosing to receive Jesus: Joh 1:12 But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name...

    The Holy Trinity in 1 John 5:7

    Even non Christian Jewish rabbis saw the trinity in the Hebrew Scriptures, and write about it in the Zohar. The word ONE in the verse, God is ONE, is a word meaning one in COMPOSITE unity, such as ONE sheet of three layered plywood or ONE cluster of many grapes. And in Genesis one, ELOHIM...

    The Holy Trinity in 1 John 5:7

    That Jesus is God the son, and not just the only begotten son of God, is indeed in the scriptures - however all the salvational passages state that belief that Jesus is the son of God, is the criteria for salvation. That’s because Jesus didn’t walk the earth as God, but as the son of man, come...

    Acts 2:38 has been abandoned by Christianity

    Actually, speaking in tongues is always the evidence that one has been filled with the Holy Spirit, per Acts 2 and Acts 10, for two examples. And Acts 19. Act 2:4 And they were all filled with the Holy Ghost, and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance. Act 10:44...

    Acts 2:38 has been abandoned by Christianity

    Here’s my debunking of making water into our co-savior: Per Acts 3:19, it’s the repenting that gets our sins forgiven, backed up by Acts 10, where Peter says those hearing him preach had been filled with the Holy Spirit, and so could then be water baptized, in Acts 10:44-48. The Holy Spirit is...

    Dinosaur conspiracy!?

    What we need to realize is, dates of millions of years are bogus, and come from false science, which scripture warns exists. They discovered soft tissue and cells in dinosaur bones claimed to be 70 MYO, which is impossible. They have to be thousands of years old, not millions, in order to still...

    Demons Fear the Name of Jesus!

    Except Ephesians 6:12 states we have to put on the whole armor of God to defeat our spiritual enemies. It’s not automatic.
