Now I believe that you have lost the debate. I answered your contentions with the Romans 14 passage by declaring what is, biblically, all permissible food.

In daily life, we might abhor the eating of other human beings, by nature. And there is nothing in scripture that defines humanity as an unclean animal (just telling it like it is). So then, in extreme circumstances, the eating of human flesh is permissible; and in circumstances that are not...

And Acts 10:14 (thank you for mentioning it) makes common and unclean synonyms of each other.

He is saying that there is no more condemnation from the law for those who believe in Jesus Christ, even if they were to do such things. But, it is hypothetical; because those who believe in Jesus are new creatures in Him; the love of the Lord is shed abroad in our hearts; and therefore we...

Not. Obedience translates into works; and the holy scriptures are clear that we are not saved by works: Rom 4:5, But to him that worketh not, but believeth on him that justifieth the ungodly, his faith is counted for righteousness. Rom 4:6, Even as David also describeth the blessedness of the...

Of course, the story of the rich man and Lazarus is not a parable.

There is certainly a furnace of fire spoken of in Matthew 13:41-42, Matthew 13:4-50; defined as everlasting punishment in Matthew 25:46. There shall be wailing and gnashing of teeth. Don't go there: receive Jesus Christ as your Lord and Saviour today!

I think that that is stretching it a bit; however I also do not see it as false doctrine per se; so I will let it slide.

It is holy scripture according to 2 Peter 3:15-16. Therefore it is the word of God. And the holy scripture declares that every creature is sanctified by the word of God and prayer; nothing is to be refused.

Also, the word of the Lord is known to us now to be all of scripture (the closed canon of holy scripture). If some of it wasn't written yet when Paul wrote 1 Timothy 4, it does not nullify the fact that other writings of Paul are holy scripture in the eternal scheme of things.

In extreme circumstances, yes. Of course eating humans is repulsive to us; and there is no need for a law to be existent for us to normally abhor the eating of humans. But in a situation a few years ago, people were trapped on a mountain and had no food; and in order to survive some of them...

2Ti 2:17, And their word will eat as doth a canker: of whom is Hymenaeus and Philetus; 2Ti 2:18, Who concerning the truth have erred, saying that the resurrection is past already; and overthrow the faith of some. 2Ti 2:19, Nevertheless the foundation of God standeth sure, having this seal, The...

1Ti 4:1, Now the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils; 1Ti 4:2, Speaking lies in hypocrisy; having their conscience seared with a hot iron; 1Ti 4:3, Forbidding to marry, and commanding to...

It appears that the bema seat of Christ also takes place at the seventh trumpet. Rev 11:15, And the seventh angel sounded; and there were great voices in heaven, saying, The kingdoms of this world are become the kingdoms of our Lord, and of his Christ; and he shall reign for ever and ever. Rev...

Someone might want to bring up the following: 1Co 1:14, I thank God that I baptized none of you, but Crispus and Gaius; 1Co 1:15, Lest any should say that I had baptized in mine own name. 1Co 1:16, And I baptized also the household of Stephanas: besides, I know not whether I baptized any other...

Act 2:38, Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost. Act 2:39, For the promise is unto you, and to your children, and to all that are afar off, even as many as the...

There are more verses than just the ones I have quoted above on the subject of baptism. But I feel that the ones that I have quoted above are basic proof that we need baptism if we are going to truly walk as born again believers in Christ.

Concerning baptism: It should be clear that while it does not remove the filth of the flesh, it does wash away sins; and that this is salvational for the person being baptized. 1Pe 3:20, Which sometime were disobedient, when once the longsuffering of God waited in the days of Noah, while the...

@Nondenom40, Did you ever find the location on the internet of the word study you were talking about? If you can provide a link, I'll be happy to look at it.
