Anyone who has the Holy Ghost truly has the power to forgive and retain sins.

Jesus came in flesh and blood; for it is by His shed blood that we have been justified (Romans 5:9). That His glorified body is only flesh and bone is still on the table...not sure I agree with that. Bone marrow by nature produces blood....and therefore the blood of Jesus is an ever-flowing...

In fact, a limited few of the disciples did receive the Holy Spirit before Pentecost; however this did not apply to the entire church. The church, as a body, was not empowered until Pentecost itself; when the Holy Ghost fell on the disciples with a mighty rushing wind and tongues of fire (Acts...

The moral law did only that. The moral law does not have the power to save (Galatians 3:21); not even temporarily. I believe that you are speaking of the ceremonial law. Because what you are saying does not apply to the moral law. I think that you must have not even looked up the...

Yes...and husbands should submit to their wives...in the love of Christ. Ephesians 5:21-25. To submit means to do as the spouse desires, when it is asked of you, within reason. Wives are to submit to their husbands as unto the Lord. So if the husband is asking of the wife something that is...

It doesn't just seem faulty. @Enoch111 pointed out that it is biased against the Deity of Christ and that the person who wrote the translation has doctrinal biases that go against other sound doctrine as well. Yes, indoctrination is important and good when it is sound doctrine that is being...

The letter of the law requires it in Deuteronomy 6:8-9.

I will say this: that a man is not born again by observing the works of the law. Tit 3:3, For we ourselves also were sometimes foolish, disobedient, deceived, serving divers lusts and pleasures, living in malice and envy, hateful, and hating one another. Tit 3:4, But after that the kindness and...

Since you are quoting from a translation that I believe is faulty, I don't even think it to be needful to respond to you. But I will ask you this: Do you wear tzitzit and tallit (tassles on your garments) and tefilin (phylacteries around the head or arm)? If not, you are a breaker of the...

The verse in question tells us that Paul's writings are in fact scripture. Therefore if you can understand them, they are in fact profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, and for instruction in righteousness (2 Timothy 3:16).

Rom 9:1, I say the truth in Christ, I lie not, my conscience also bearing me witness in the Holy Ghost, Rom 9:2, That I have great heaviness and continual sorrow in my heart. Rom 9:3, For I could wish that myself were accursed from Christ for my brethren, my kinsmen according to the flesh...

And, in your opinion, is Paul not a valid source of sound doctrine? 1Jo 5:3, For this is the love of God, that we keep his commandments: and his commandments are not grievous. The primary factor being that if we are filled with the love of God through what it says in Romans 5:5, the...

I'm not going to worry. I am going to pray (Philippians 4:6).

Indeed, loving the Lord our God with all of our heart, mind, soul, and strength is the first and greatest commandment; and the 2nd is like it, "Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself." On these two commandments hang all the law and the prophets. This is the teaching of Jesus Christ. Now Paul...

Eph 3:6, That the Gentiles should be fellowheirs, and of the same body, and partakers of his promise in Christ by the gospel: @HARK! I'm afraid for you because you are using a faulty translation.

Are you being purposefully vague? I am uncertain of what you are trying to convey by this.

I believe that Jesus was speaking to all of us when He spoke the following: Mat 7:11, If ye then, being evil, know how to give good gifts unto your children, how much more shall your Father which is in heaven give good things to them that ask him? Luk 11:13, If ye then, being evil, know how to...

Of course, there is also the other side of the coin (for I believe that the translation used by @HARK! is faulty): Act 15:1, And certain men which came down from Judaea taught the brethren, and said, Except ye be circumcised after the manner of Moses, ye cannot be saved. Act 15:2, When...

Again, Phl 3:1, Finally, my brethren, rejoice in the Lord. To write the same things to you, to me indeed is not grievous, but for you it is safe. Phl 3:2, Beware of dogs, beware of evil workers, beware of the concision. Phl 3:3, For we are the circumcision, which worship God in the spirit, and...

Matthew 7:1-5; Luke 6:41-42.
