    John 3:5... YES! ANOTHER BAPTISM THREAD!

    'Jesus answered, "Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God."' (John 3:5) Hi @FHII, What you say is established by the grammar of this verse, as I am informed in the margin of my Bible. I am told there that the...

    Am I wrong

    Hi @Nancy, Regarding Grace: I pray that this is so, and if it is, then the glory is the Lord's, for in me, that is in my flesh, there is no good thing. Regarding the Church which is His Body, the fulness of Him that filleth all in all (Ephesians 1:22-23): I glory in this glorious revelation...

    Is The Rapture A Literal Event?

    Is the rapture a literal event? Hello @Hidden In Him, If you are referring to 1 Thessalonians 4:17+, then yes it will be a literal event. It had the potential to have occurred within the lifetime of those Thessalonian saints, had Israel repented (Acts 3:19-20) : but now it awaits a yet future...

    What is perfection?

    @arunangelo @Enoch111 @Helen @VictoryinJesus Hi there, Doesn't perfection also have the meaning of maturity or full growth, of enduring unto the end? I think of such passages of Scripture as, Hebrews 6:1 & 2 Corinthians 13:9, the context of which is concerning going on unto maturity. Thank...

    Is water baptism necessary for salvation?

    Hello @Waiting on him, * Are you thinking of Ezekiel 37? Jehovah refers to Ezekiel there as, 'Son of Man', doesn't He? In verse three. Referring to his humanity. There it is God who tells him what to say to the dry bones surrounding him, words of prophecy regarding them. The bones being the...

    Is water baptism necessary for salvation?

    Hello @Davy, I commented on this when this verse came up before: and can only repeat that it is necessary to look at the context in which this is said, and ask the questions, to whom it is said? The time of it's fulfilment? To whom it would be said by them that heard Him? For what purpose? and...

    Hello @Marymog, Thank you for your post. Yes, Praise God! There is an identifiable Church: of which I am assuredly a member, in Christ Jesus my Lord, by God's Grace. It is the Church which is His Body, of which He is the Head. The fulness of Him that filleth all in all (Ephesians 1:22-23...

    Interpreting Romans 6:23 In Context

    Hello Hidden In Him, The epistles of Romans and Galatians impress upon us how strong is the desire of the flesh to find some ground of boasting, some little thing to do or to endure to make salvation secure and justification complete. The Apostle Paul has already stripped human nature of it's...

    Interpreting Romans 6:23 In Context

    Hello there, There is not one of us who would want to be found to be denying the fulness of God in Christ Jesus, I'm sure. We would be horrified if this were the case. Yet, it is possible that we could be inadvertently doing so, by standing and defending what we perceive to be truth, and in...

    Hello Logabe, Romans chapter 2 is the chapter to read concerning this, for when God judges the secrets of men's hearts the fact that they have never heard, will be taken into consideration. He will be just. What a God! Yes indeed! What a Plan! There is no better! Praise His Holy Name! In...
