You seem to be saying that Acts is the only inspired book. I don't skip Acts...I've been baptized in Jesus' Name myself. It appears to me that you are skipping John's writings.

It appears then that you fail the test of 1 John 4:1-3 & 2 John 1:7.

I suppose that I am one of those hated fundamentalists that I was talking about a little while ago in another thread.

I would say that there is a gate; and that it is indeed narrow. But that it is presented to all is not in question.

Because they are unaware of the truth of the matter. 1Co 4:7, For who maketh thee to differ from another? and what hast thou that thou didst not receive? now if thou didst receive it, why dost thou glory, as if thou hadst not received it? The love and righteousness of the Lord by which we do...

I'm saying that without Him we are incapable of doing anything worthy (John 15:5).

Because all the glory goes to Him for anything that we might have done that was deserving of the reward of a crown.

Whatever crowns we will receive, we will be casting them at the feet of Jesus on that day.

I believe that the key to our understanding here is that the word of God will not return void (Isaiah 55:10-11). It is not necessarily that we should cater to people's feelings when we share the gospel with them in order to make them more inclined to receive what is being spoken. But if the...

Cornelius and his friends were a unique bunch. It was a time of transition in the church when they were converted. It was not acceptable to most in the church that God would redeem Gentiles; because those who were of the circumcision group held sway with Peter to a very great extent. So God...

In Acts 3:19, it should be clear that the Holy Spirit was in charge; who knew that there would be an immediate persecution that would present an obstacle to Peter's baptizing the converts who would believe in that hour. So, he prophesied that their sins would be blotted out "when times of...

Someone may get an idea on how to become rich from someone who is poor. For example, the term "blackish" came from the Bible. Someone probably heard someone preaching about that term and got an idea for a tv show. I'm certain whoever that was became quite wealthy. But the person who...

There is a time and place for going to the doctor...but we are not to place our trust in the physicians...2 Chronicles 16:12.

I had two encounters today with black people who are taking their favour that they are receiving from this movement ("Black lives matter") too far. In one instance, there was a group of about five or six black people at the 99 cent store. One black woman said, "we are here to represent," and a...

I would point out again that Psalms 35:27 and Psalms 118:25 are a basis in scripture for the doctrine in question; while it is wrong to abuse the understanding of these things in order to fleece the flock of the Lord. I believe that there is a definite promise found in Malachi 3, that if people...

Nope. That is wishful thinking on your part.

Any time a verse is referenced or quoted by itself by any of these so-called false teachers in your eyes, you are certainly free to look them up in their context on your own time. Anyone adept enough with the word of the Lord to quote or reference singular verses would have had to have read...

It wasn't God that delivered you...for what I believe is based solely on studying the scriptures with reliance on the Holy Spirit to give the interpretation and application.

That's a crying shame; because in this you are being disobedient to 1 Corinthians 1:10.

1. Hebrews 6:1-8; Hebrews 10:26-31; Jude 1:5. Salvation can indeed be lost. 2. Jude 1:3-4. Wicked men who were foreordained to this condemnation teach grace as a license for sin. 3. 1 Peter 1:5. We are kept by the power of God through our faith. Therefore it is expedient that we continue in...
