I don't know, but I have thought about it. Kings and Prophets were anointed and were filled with the Spirit. Does that mean they didn't have a sin nature any longer like a born again Christian, I don't know.

Hell burns forever, because it was made for Satan and his angels who are immortal. Humans became mortal when Adam sinned a sin unto death. We inherited that death. So those sinners we know who will go to hell will be punished with many stripes or few stripes. What that means I have no idea...

I was kidding. I didn't dance. But I wouldn't speak against it. I just don't dance. But David did, and when his wife mocked him God hit her barren! God loves dancing before Him.

I can see why you would say that is a heresy. I know of Arminians who believe that. But I don't. But what is right is Jesus cleansed us from our past sins. 2 Peter 1:9 9 For he who lacks these things is shortsighted, even to blindness, and has forgotten that he was cleansed from his old sins...

Yes, you are right. I read it wrong.

These signs are part of the New Covenant, so as long as we are in the New Covenant these signs will follow us. Jesus taught the New Covenant in his ministry, not the Old Covenant, except when bickering with the Pharisees.

Seeing as that is NOT speaking in tongues because NO ONE UNDERSTANDS, UNLESS ONE INTERPRETS, that would be a MIRACLE.

It only says that the Queen of the Ethiopians went to worship. I can't say for sure that the eunuch was too.

But they teach that the mercy of God COVERS our sins and forgives our past, present and future sins. Do you believe that?

Philip wasn't an apostle. Acts 6: 2 Then the twelve summoned the multitude of the disciples and said, “It is not desirable that we should leave the word of God and serve tables. 3 Therefore, brethren, seek out from among you seven men of good reputation, full of the Holy Spirit and wisdom...

Yes it is the way I understand Grace. It is the power of God. The Holy Spirit is the power of God. How do you understand grace?

The Eunuch was Gentile. The Holy Spirit had not fallen on the Gentiles yet, and they didn't need hands laid on them. But as soon as God cleansed the Gentiles and showed this to Peter in that vision, and Cornelius and his family received the Holy Spirit without hands, I can just imagine what was...

This is still the message in order to receive the New Covenant gospel, the power of God, the power of the Holy Spirit to be free of sin. John the Apostle said the same thing, to confess your sins. That means to repent. And Jesus told them to baptize them.

I looked for this verse and couldn't find it. Acts 2 is a long chapter; what verse are you referring to?

All who believe and are baptized receive the authorities/manifestations in Mark 16:16-18 - ALL CHRISTIANS WHO ARE BORN OF THE SPIRIT. Not all receive the ministry gifts of 1 Corinthians 12, except one. I have all except the gifts of diverse kinds of tongues and interpretation of tongues. I also...

It was a sign. It was sovereign. They didn't need to understand it even, because they overheard praises to God that doesn't need interpretation. But God used it to DRAW THEM to Christ and to listen what Peter preached.

It wasn't Peter who was speaking in tongues. It was the 120. Peter and the eleven were at their side and received the second filling. Peter received Prophecy and understood that what was happening was the fulfillment of the Joel 2 prophecy and preached in about that to them in Hebrew.

I never said Peter was. In fact no one has. I said he used their common language. They could all speak Hebrew.

No, Peter spoke in their common language. They understood naturally what he was preaching. They were bilingual. The 3000 devout Jews were doing the interpreting of the tongues and understood all of them speaking their own language.

How else do you think the gift of interpretation works? You hear what is being said in tongues in your own language. God can speak many languages, but when he speaks to me, I hear him in English. If I had the gift of interpretation of tongues He would also speak to me when they were speaking...
