That happened 2000 years ago. It doesn't happen now. Go study, go argue with someone else about things you don't understand. Goodbye

Being saved equates to being born again. He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved Mk 16:15-16. By being obedient and following tge scriptures is how you. There is no physical evidence nor does the bible suggest there is or supposed to be.

I have no further comments for you as you do not understand the subject matter nor have you carefully considered or understand the scriptures. Goodbye

No, I just understand how to keep things in context and perspective

Yes, the church at Corinth 2000 yrs ago

And what about these? What's your point?

I have no idea what your point is by this. I totally adhere to Acts 2:38 and ad a result have been born again. And to your other comments, if it had happened to many, why are there sick people in hospitals? Why aren't the "many" exercising the gifts by healing and performing miracles as did...

Be specific about dismissing 2 chapters. I'm not dismissing anything. And to your last question, the bible, which is the complete word of God with warnings contained therein agsinst adding to or taking away from, has definitely ended the need for miraculous spiritual gifts which filled the void...

To your last point first. Prayer is NOT one of the miraculous gifts or manifestations of the Spirit. The miraculous spiritual gifts are listed in 1 Cor 12:8-10, and prayer isn't one of them. We don't need the gifts listed therein to edify the modern church of the present day. We have the...

That's exactly correct. The gifts have ceased just as 1 Cor 13:8 said they would. If the gifts haven't ceased, literally, everyone in every church everywhere should be performing miracles, healing people, etc, but instead they're babbling a bunch of gibberish and claiming they have gifts of the...

What do you think tongues is? Is it not one of the miraculous gifts of the spirit listed in 1 Cor 12:8-10? Aren't miracles on that list as well? You obviously don't want to see what's written there. Goodbye. Believe whatever nonsense you like.

You stopped 1 verse short in 6: thru 8 says Stephen then demonstrated various gifts after the laying on of apostle's hands. And 2 things in Acts 8:9-17. One, Simon the sorcerer was a baptized believer who wanted to purchase the gifts after he saw they were manifested by the laying on of the...

I did on a different response to you.

Consider this supplemental also. Sorry for the confusion, but this should address your question on limitations to apostle's hands. Start with John the Baptist's comments in Luke 3:16 regarding baptism with the Holy Ghost and then the Luke 24:49 comment made by Jesus to his apostles telling them...

Looks like my complete response didn't get posted but only the beginning

See my original post wherein it cites the specific scriptures which clearly indicate the miraculous manifestation of gifts were through the apostles hands.

This is supplemental to my recent response go you. You are not understanding the difference in receiving the gift (singular) of the Holy Ghost/Spirit as per Acts 2:38, which all baptized believers receive pursuant thereto, and the various miraculous gifts (plural) or manifestations of the Spirit...

That's the kjv which I happen to like and read from, but look at the origional Greek in the interlinear which says to each, not every man. Also, there are examples in the bible wherein baptized believers did not automatically have the gifts of the Spirit. Also, 1 Cor 12:28 says "God hath set...

I have explained this previously, the events which occurred in in Acts 2 and similarly in Acts 10. In both instances, the only 2 times recorded in the bible, the Holy Spirit fell miraculously on individuals unilaterally without the laying on of the apostle's hands. In Acts 2, it fell on the...

Goodbye. You make no sense
