    James Was Not Talking about Faith in Jesus Christ for Salvation

    Again, there is no indication that the Parable of the Tax Collector was exclusive to the Old Testament and does not apply to the New Testament. For example: I can demonstrate to you the changes of how the Sabbath is no longer in effect by pointing you to Colossians 2:14-17. This is what you...

    James Was Not Talking about Faith in Jesus Christ for Salvation

    Babies are unconditionally saved by Christ’s sacrifice. To understand this topic one needs to understand Federal Headship. Four reasons why Federal Headship is true. #1. Well, the best passage that helps us to understand "Federal Headship" is Hebrews 7:8-10. It says, 8 "Here people who die...

    KJV Only...which one!

    Not so. Besides printing and scribal errors, there are no major changes to the text that alters meaning among the major widely used KJB Editions. If you disagree…. Then prove it. We are talking about if there are any changes between the 1611 KJB vs. the KJB pure Cambridge Edition circa 1900...

    KJV Only...which one!

    Your missing the point. Can you say that the KJB is primarily Formal Equivalency or Dynamic Equivalency? Can you say that the Modern Bibles are primarily Formal Equivalency or Dynamic Equivalency?

    James Was Not Talking about Faith in Jesus Christ for Salvation

    Water baptism in the name of Christ after the cross was simply done as a part of the misunderstanding by the apostles in the beginning. God later made it clear to Paul that Christ sent him not to baptize but to preach the gospel. This is why Paul basically said he was glad he did not baptize...

    James Was Not Talking about Faith in Jesus Christ for Salvation

    Grace, and Sanctification are taught from Genesis to Revelation. So I disagree. It makes no sense for Jesus to teach this parable just so that it would quickly be undone later on when He died upon the cross. There is nothing in the New Covenant (after the cross) that says that the Parable of...

    James Was Not Talking about Faith in Jesus Christ for Salvation

    I believe some believers can mature quicker than others. But the Bible believing mindset is different than the OSAS mindset because we don’t believe we can abide in sin at any point and remain saved while we sin. The difference between us is that we don’t intend to set out that we are fallen...

    James Was Not Talking about Faith in Jesus Christ for Salvation

    Sorry. No offense, but if the Bible is not your final word of authority for all matters of faith and practice…. We are done talking because there is no standard that we can agree upon.

    This sounds like you are just hitting the disagree button without carefully looking at the points I made with Scripture. The word “repent” can have a wide variety of meanings based on the context even. Here is an illustrative example: In other words, the context determines the meaning of...

    Galatians 3:22 “But the scripture hath concluded all under sin, that the promise by faith of Jesus Christ might be given to them that believe.”

    James Was Not Talking about Faith in Jesus Christ for Salvation

    The real baptism in being baptism is not the water but it is Spirit baptism. It is God’s Spirit that crucifies the old man and not being dunked in water. Again, baptisms or washings (baptismos) was imposed on believers until the time of reformation (See Hebrews 9:10). Water baptism itself...

    James Was Not Talking about Faith in Jesus Christ for Salvation

    Not I… but the Bible says so. While we are initially and ultimately saved by God's grace through faith in Christ, the Bible also teaches that works of faith also play a part in the salvation process. For both Jesus and Paul taught and or implied that works play a part in eternal life. #1...

    James Was Not Talking about Faith in Jesus Christ for Salvation

    Uh no. We are talking about the TOTAL eradication of evil in view here and not evil people dying just as faithful Christians can die. There will be no more death, pain, or sorrow in the New Earth (Christ’s eternal Kingdom). That makes absolutely no sense. How so? Is the Bible your final...

    KJV Only...which one!

    This is simply a myth. As I told you before, The KJB translators employed Formal Equivalence (word for word translation). Many Modern translators today primarily employ Dynamic Equivalence instead (thought for thought). For in Modern Translation camp it's not about having the exact words of God...

    KJV Only...which one!

    This is a myth. No actual major word changes were actually made. The words all mean the same thing unless it was a printer error, typographical or an unintentional scribal error. While Jack Chick probably makes you want to run for the hills, or puke, he does provide a good brief explanation...

    (Continued from my last post): #8. The Holy Spirit is compared to water; Water baptism (an OT ritual) is a picture that points ahead to the true baptism (i.e. Spirit baptism). Jesus told the woman at the well, “Whosoever drinketh of this water...

    James Was Not Talking about Faith in Jesus Christ for Salvation

    Here is my biblical case that... Spirit Baptism is the one and only baptism in effect today. Scriptural Support: #1. Ephesians 4:5 says that there is “one baptism.” #2. 1 Corinthians 12:13 says, “For by one Spirit are we all baptized into one body, whether we be Jews or Gentiles, whether we...

    KJV Only...which one!

    Any person who does an unbiased comparison between the KJB vs. Modern Bibles can see that the King James Bible does not have false doctrines like the Modern bibles do. This alone shows you their corruption. A new NIV or NASB comes out every few years to line the pockets of men with filthy...

    KJV Only...which one!

    Textual Criticism does not attempt to claim any inspiration by God but they use Science so falsely called. They use fleshy minds and not the leading of the Holy Spirit. Textual Criticism is wrong because it is an attack upon God’s Word like that of the devil because that is the same tactics we...

    James Was Not Talking about Faith in Jesus Christ for Salvation

    1 Corinthians 1:12-13 is a part of John’s water baptism in identifying with Christ. This was only imposed on believers until the time of reformation (The same Greek word “baptismos” is used for the English word “washings” in Hebrews 9:10 as it is used for the English word “baptisms.” In other...
