    1 Corinthians 2 is so abused

    Hi @bbyrd009, Good to speak to you again. :) Peter was in no doubt who, 'Israel', was: for he referred to them, as, 'ye men of Israel'. They were there for the feast of Pentecost, and there would not have been a gentile among them, except for proselytes maybe. They were congregated as men of...

    1 Corinthians 2 is so abused

    Hello @Butterfly, With respect, the fact that the promise of the comforter was made to the Apostles themselves is a a matter of record, and is therefore incontrovertible (John 14:16; John 14:26; John 15:26; John 16:7). That the Apostle Paul received of the Holy Spirit is also a matter of record...

    What Do You Learn from Debate?

    Hi @Mayflower, I have had many different experiences of forum activity. Not all of it pleasant, sometimes disturbing. However I have also been blessed. The effect it has had is to bring me to God's Word for confirmation, not only of what has been said by others, but also of what I seek to...

    1 Corinthians 2 is so abused

    Hello @CoreIssue, I managed to salvage this from the response you made to my post. :) Your words got caught up in my entry that you were quoting. However, I have no idea what you are referring to. For I did neither of those things. Don't worry about responding again, for we have both made...

    1 Corinthians 2 is so abused

    Hello @CoreIssue, Israel was not to be' reckoned among the nations' (Numbers 23:9), so they would never be included in that term, that was a term used for the gentile nations only. The discipl-ing of the nations will take place at the end of the age now: for the refusal of Israel to repent...

    1 Corinthians 2 is so abused

    Hello @CoreIssue, Matthew 28-29, records what the Lord Jesus said following His resurrection. * Were they? How do you account for the reaction of the believing Jews to Peter in Acts 11:1-3. * Was it? How do you account for the words of James in Acts 21:20? Also the actions of Paul, who kept...

    1 Corinthians 2 is so abused

    Hello @Nancy, As you will have read for yourself in John 14, the Lord Jesus sought to 'comfort' His disciples, for He had told them that He was to leave them, and they were naturally troubled about this. In John 14:16 He told them that He would pray to the Father, that He might send, 'another...

    1 Corinthians 2 is so abused

    Hello @CNKW3, The Word of God is the means whereby the Holy Spirit works, for it is His 'sword'(Ephesians 6:17;Hebrews 4:12). * For a person to come under conviction of sin, and to have prayed to God for forgiveness, then the Holy Spirit must have been working in him. That person had to know...

    Should I be rebaptised?

    Hello @Pearl, God has never spoken to me, I have never heard His voice. I believe the written word of God to be the sum of all revelation, and the light of my path. May God's perfect will be done in each one of us, for His Name and Glory's sake. With love. In Christ Jesus Chris
