Being baptized isn't the same thing as taking a bath...it is not for the purpose of physical washing/cleanliness. 1Pe 3:21, The like figure whereunto even baptism doth also now save us (not the putting away of the filth of the flesh, but the answer of a good conscience toward God,) by the...

Baptism is not a removal of the filth of the flesh (1 Peter 3:21); but it does wash away sins (Acts of the Apostles 22:16).

God is one God...that is clear at the very least from James 2:19. For my thoughts on the Trinity, go to the following threads: The Trinity is NO lie. Trinity vs. Tritheism: Understanding the Trinity.

Those who are dead will be raised up, some to shame and everlasting contempt (Daniel 12:2). Take a chance on it as you wish. If you are wrong, then you have gambled and lost. And will also suffer eternal torments because you gambled and lost. Because if you do not believe that Jesus is the...

Yes; if you put your trust wholly and completely in the finished work of the Cross.

Diversity within the church is not a bad thing. Division, yes; diversity, no.

I consider that I have ceased from my own works as God did from His; while at the same time I operate in a labour of love. This is because I do not have to do anything to get into heaven other than what I have already done; which is to receive and believe in Jesus Christ and what He did for me...

It, for the most part, takes being born again to be (truly) obedient. A person may think that they are obedient, but if they are not born again, that obedience will not save them. Obedience is not the catalyst for being born again...faith is. Obedience is the result of a living faith in Jesus...

Mat 13:41, The Son of man shall send forth his angels, and they shall gather out of his kingdom all things that offend, and them which do iniquity; Mat 13:42. And shall cast them into a furnace of fire: there shall be wailing and gnashing of teeth. Mat 13:49, So shall it be at the end of the...

Evidently you didn't look up the verses referenced. In the lake of fire it is not everlasting life but everlasting death: eternal separation from God...and yes, it is everlasting torments, whether you want to believe in it or not. You identify as false teaching a very great amount of sound...

Hebrews 4 tells us that there is a rest for the people of God....and that it is not the seventh day of the week. The sabbath is epitomized by Jesus' statement in Matthew 11:28-30... Mat 11:28, Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Mat 11:29, Take my...

What does John 5:18 say? Jhn 5:18, Therefore the Jews sought the more to kill him, because he not only had broken the sabbath <in the estimation of the Pharisees>, but said also that God was his Father, making himself equal with God. What is found in <> is your added interpretation; but is not...

Nothing that you are here claiming as nonsense isn't found in holy scripture.

It may indeed teach even just that, in Romans 6:6 and Colossians 2:11.

Gen 15:6, And he <Abraham> believed in the LORD; and he counted it to him for righteousness. I realize that in quoting this I may indeed be opening a can of worms.

Who is criticizing such a person? I find that I am one who is criticizing someone who has failed the test of 1 John 4:1-3, 2 John 1:7.

Okay, God bless.

It's probably not a good thing to mix theology with anything called science (see 1 Timothy 6:20 (kjv)).

Okay. But I don't think that I am talking out of the side of my mouth. You simply need to meditate on time and eternity and how they relate to each other.

No; I am saying that He didn't sin in violating the sabbath, because the change in law that is spoken of in Hebrews 7:12 had already been instituted. Jesus is High Priest according to the order of Melchizedec; not after a carnal commandment but after the power of an endless life. I am saying...
