    Acts 2:38 has been abandoned by Christianity

    True! Only if we are discussing the washing of regeneration set forth in Titus 3:5. Otherwise, all water baptisms however, has no spiritual value except to wash away dirt/filth from our skin. 1 Peter 3:21. Ephesians 2:9 is NOT easily understood by many Christians so they reference the works of...

    Rabbis forced the Romans to crucify Jesus?

    Good insight. But the above quote should have been better served if translated thus: "the determinate counsel and [fore-love] of God." To God Be The Glory

    To your estimation, what did Jesus teach? To God Be The Glory

    Acts 2:38 has been abandoned by Christianity

    NOT water baptism as it is a works gospel which is contrary to Ephesians 2:9! But rather the washing of regeneration set forth in Titus 3:5 which God only can perform. To God Be The Glory

    Acts 2:38 has been abandoned by Christianity

    But you probably neglected to emphasize that Jesus spoke in parables and without a parable He did not speak. Mark 16:16 is difficult to explain except spiritually as can be seen in vvs 17,18. To God Be The Glory

    Waiting for something that's already here - Anti Christ

    Addressing the OP only, Every believer should know who the Anti-Christ is according to 1 John 4:3 which reads: "And every spirit that confesseth not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is not of God: and this is that spirit of antichrist, whereof ye have heard that it should COME; and EVEN...

    Acts 2:38 has been abandoned by Christianity

    None whatsoever! See Luke 18:28-30 and Luke 17:10 Acts 5:31 "Him hath God exalted with his right hand to be a Prince and a Saviour, for to GIVE repentance to Israel [all believers] and forgiveness of sins. Words in parenthesis are mine. To God Be The Glory

    Acts 2:38 has been abandoned by Christianity

    In the Old Testament the ritual sign to join into the kingdom of God was "circumcision." In the New Testament the sign is "water baptism" and both signs have NO spiritual blessings! Both rituals are works that men perform and are contrary to Ephesians 2:9. True! Only to those whom God elected...

    Acts 2:38 has been abandoned by Christianity

    As I've asserted many, many times in the past, water baptism has no spiritual value! It can only wash the dirt off from our skin and NEVER from one's sins. What God has in mind is the washing of regeneration set forth in Titus 3:5, to which only God can perform and did. But read what Peter had...

    Acts 2:38 has been abandoned by Christianity

    Jesus said: "No man can come to me except the Father draw him." John 6:44. AND "And he said, Therefore said I unto you, that no man can come unto me, except it were given him of my Father." "From that time many of his disciples went back, and walked no more with him." John 6:65-66 Why did...

    Acts 2:38 has been abandoned by Christianity

    13 Which things also we speak, not in the words of man's wisdom teacheth, but which the Holy Ghost teacheth; comparing spiritual things with spiritual. 14 But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they...

    Acts 2:38 has been abandoned by Christianity

    Romans 10:14-17 and Hebrews 4:12 are all fundamental principles. But who will want to hear seeing there is none righteous no, not one [without exception] that will seek after God? Romans 3:10-11. Only those who are elected in eternity past before the foundation of the world who will hear/seek...

    Acts 2:38 has been abandoned by Christianity

    Most definitely! Your kind of salvation is only limited to adults. What about babies/children who can't work and nor have the capacity to think? They are lost according to your gospel. Please don't talk about the age of accountability, for there is no such thing [Psalm 58:3]. John the Baptist...

    The Only True God, the God of Jesus Christ.

    Yes people can be praised but NOT the same as being reverenced, and obeyed etc., as God is! Angels mean messengers and there are three categories of angels: : 1. Jesus as the messenger of the Gospel. 2. Angels as ministering messengers on behalf of the saved. 3. People are messengers as they...

    The Only True God, the God of Jesus Christ.

    The nature of a true believer is never to insult another believer in Christ. All believers stand on the same ground. I asked you a question and you answered with a question. Is that the norm for you? (only a question). It seems that you only pick and choose Scripture passages that apparently...

    The Only True God, the God of Jesus Christ.

    @keithr, 1. Jesus said, "The Father and I are one." 2. He that hath seen me has seen the Father. John 14:9 3. The Father addressing His Son; "Thy throne O, God is forever and ever." Hebrews 1:8 4. Including Philippians 2 To be honest and with my finite mind, I don't really understand the...

    The Only True God, the God of Jesus Christ.

    Thank you for the reference. I beg to differ. 1. Jesus said, "The Father and I are one." 2. He that hath seen me has seen the Father. John 14:9 3. The Father addressed His Son; "Thy throne O, God is forever and ever." Hebrews 1:8. The most dramatic is: "Who, being in the form of God, thought...

    The Only True God, the God of Jesus Christ.

    I've never said plural is limited to just three rather the Hebrew plural means three or more. How can you understand the word of God when you can't even read and comprehend a simple post? But for the sake of those who peruse these forums I will share a beautiful example [one of many] of the...
