Sorry, this is not a convincing argument from Scripture for what you said. It makes no sense for Jesus to give us new teachings and commands just so that they no longer apply anymore. You might as well tear out the gospels out of your Bible with this line of thinking, friend.

I would agree with the possibility that 1 Peter 3:21 saying “removal of dirt from the body” is a metaphor for the outward physical act. This interpretation is still in harmony with saying the same thing if it was in reference to sin (i.e. filth of the flesh = sin - 2 Corinthians 7:1). One is not...

Grace, peace, and blessings to you from the Lord Jesus Christ. I disagree with Textual Criticism because it seeks to change the Bible that was established for hundreds of years. I disagree with Bruce Metzger because he appears to hold to liberal beliefs regarding the Bible. Bruce thinks the...

What context? No verse or passage says what you just did. That’s your imagination working over time. In fact, it does not make any sense for Jesus to give us New Commands (John 13:34) (1 John 3:23), and New Teachings on sin (like in Matthew 5:28-30, Matthew 6:15) just so that they would be...

Eternal life is a person named Jesus Christ and eternal life is not a super power or a magical wish granted to a person by God. According to God's Word: Jesus (the King of kings and Lord of lords) is the ONLY One who has immortality or eternal life. 1 Timothy 6:15-16 15 “…the King of kings...

It’s seems you are not going to agree no matter what evidence I put forth. So I think it is best to agree to disagree in love and move on, friend. Blessings be unto you in the Lord Jesus Christ.

I know. I was shocked about this even more than you when I learned of this in Scripture. Anyways, this revelation that Spirit baptism was the new form of baptism under the New Covenant was not known to Peter right away. So this is why you will see Peter water baptize in both Acts 2, and Acts...

Jesus will never leave us nor forsake us if we abide by the terms of the contract or covenant. Read Deuteronomy 31. In the same chapter it says God will never forsake the Israelites but in that same chapter it says that He will forsake them if they break His covenant. Compare verses 6 and 8...

Yes, it’s dumb because why would Jesus and His apostles warn about how certain sins can keep us out of His Kingdom? In Matthew 5:28-30, Jesus says if you look upon a woman in lust, your whole body is in danger of hell fire. In Matthew 6:15, Jesus says if you do not forgive, the Father will not...

I believe James 2:10 is referring to the Royal Law of love (James 2:8), or the Law of liberty (James 2:12) (Which is New Covenant Law or a part of the Law of Christ). So James 2:10 is in context to loving others. That is what James is talking about. The Law of loving others. For the brethren...

I agree. This is why Eternal Security or OSAS is just dumb. They must distort or ignore these verses.

I don’t even know what your viewpoint or position is in regards to Romans 6:14 that says, “for ye are not under the law, but under grace.” So I am not sure how to exactly answer you. So a commentary on Romans 6:14 by you would be helpful. I also do not know if you are in favor of OSAS, or if...

I have provided a source link for you to investigate Scripture. If you don’t accept it, and you want to see what you desire to see, then that is your choice. Besides, this is not the topic of this thread. As I said to you before, there are those who reject the Trinity and they are King James...

It’s uncomfortable and unusual to read a post like this when you can simply learn to multi-quote on the forums. There was a help tutorial provided on another Christian forums (that uses the same tools as this forums) that should help you to multi-quote. I hope it helps, and may God bless...

Also, even many KJB Only Christians do not see the use of Modern bibles as a salvation issue. So you are saying that just because I believe in a perfect Word of God being the King James Bible that I am not saved? That’s silly. Besides, I use Modern bibles. Does that change things all of a...

I do use Modern Translations alongside my KJB. I do look to the Greek on rare occasion, as well. But everyone needs a final Word of authority. Most make themselves the authority or the scholar the authority. All Modern Bibles come from Rome, and Westcott and Hort. So if you believe the KJB...

In one sense, while believers do have to cooperate with God of their own free will (Synergism, not Calvinism), the good works believers do ultimately is the working of God doing the good work through them. It’s why the 24 elders cast their crowns down before Jesus. It was Jesus who was doing...

Some Christians believe repentance is believing in Jesus only or His finished redemptive work. Some Christians believe repentance is a change of mind. Some Christians believe repentance is to confess Jesus is Lord. Some Christians think repentance is forsaking your sins. Some Christians like...

This to me is like understanding the basics. Sort of like how all Christians accept the Bible as the final Word of authority for all matters of faith and practice. I am not going to be able to convince you of this truth. Only God and His Word can do that. Check out my extensive list of...

I held to three positions on 1 Peter 3:21 over the years (None of which involved salvation). #1. My first position on 1 Peter 3:21 is that the water baptism that Peter talked about was a desired action for New Covenant Christians to partake in (Which was a symbolic picture of Christ’s death and...
