    The thief on the cross misconceptions

    1Peter 3:20-21, There is an antitype which now saves us- baptism, (Mark 16:15-16) not the removal of the filth of the flesh: (what baptism is not) but the answer of a good conscience toward God through the resurrection(1Corinthians 15:1-4; Romans 6:3-6) of Jesus Christ.

    The thief on the cross misconceptions

    The gospel of Jesus Christ, Matthew 28:19; Mark 16:15-16; 1Corinthians 15:1-4, Faith in the death, burial and ressurection of Christ required to receive Gods grace. Thief on the cross, his Faith, Faith in Jesus as the Messiah, knowing Jesus is dying. No faith in or knowledge of His...

    Is believing/faith a work ?

    Hebrews 18:3, - and said, Assuredly, I say to you unless you are converted and become as little children, you will by no means enter the kingdom of heaven.

    Is believing/faith a work ?

    All are born into a sinful world, "Behold I was brought forth in iniquity." David's mother's sin he was conceived in, "and in sin my mother conceived me." Mother and world born into = sin David born baby = sinless.

    A Test Of Reading Comprehension and Honesty

    You need to understand why Peter told Simon he has no part in his ministry. Peter was given the responsibility as an apostle. Only Peter was given all the abilities of the Holy Spirit through baptism of the Holy Spirit, Acts 1 and 2. Simon, was not chosen by Jesus to be his apostle. Therefore...

    A Test Of Reading Comprehension and Honesty

    No, more misrepresentation. I do not believe in the false doctrine of once saved always saved. Simon was saved, then sinned against God. Simon was lost and would have stayed lost if he had not repented of his sins. Dan, you believe you can be saved without repenting of ALL your sins? That's not...

    A Test Of Reading Comprehension and Honesty

    Until you or someone else shows me a passage in the new testament that teaches water has the power to wash away sins, I will never believe in water salvation. I believe in the gospel. I believe the gospel saves, Romans 1:16, - For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ, for it is the power of...

    A Test Of Reading Comprehension and Honesty

    No I dont. I dont believe if someone gets themselves water baptized they are saved by water. I have a niece that tried that. I tell her to this day, God did not save her because she got wet. She has no intention of taking up her cross and submitting her whole life to God.She has never been...

    The Flawed Reasoning Of Total Depravity

    Ephesians 2:3, Among whom also we all once conducted ourselves in the lusts of our flesh, fulfilling the desires of the flesh and of the mind and were by nature children of wrath, just as the others. I recommend everyone who believes by nature can only mean innate, go to Biblehub and study...

    A Test Of Reading Comprehension and Honesty

    The Bible teaches Simon believed and was water baptized. That's what the Bible says and I am a Bible believer! I don't disagree with what the scriptures say. Did Simon believe in Jesus? The says yes. Dan speculates that Simon did not believe in Jesus only in the miracles he saw. Once again we...

    A Test Of Reading Comprehension and Honesty

    Wrong, as I've said to you multiple times water is nowhere mentioned in the gospel of Christ in any verse that teaches it can save. Only in the old testament is it said water saved Noah. No new testament christian believes water saves. God made sure to have Peter preach baptism not water doth...

    Amen, amen, amen ALL disagreements would end if we all just did what the Scriptures teach. Acts 2:42 -and they continued steadfastly in the apostles doctrine..

    A Test Of Reading Comprehension and Honesty

    First all you do repeatedly is misrepresentation. I'm not a water salvationist. I do not believe water washes away anyone's sins. Second: more misrepresentation. No, I do not argue the thief on probably was baptized by John. The Bible is silent, therefore I will not speculate. It is possible he...

    Your showing when the Scriptures go against your theology your allegiance is to your theology.

    A Test Of Reading Comprehension and Honesty

    No, you cannot ignore what I have just taught from the scriptures Sir. I can just ignore what you have shared too. Does that do me any good in my learning? An honest man will always take into consideration when evidence is given that clearly shows unexplainable examples that contradict what...

    A Test Of Reading Comprehension and Honesty

    Good. At what point are added to Christ? When do we get in Christ? Here we see folks who have faith in Christ Jesus, verse 26. Next we learn we are baptized into Jesus, verse 27. Two requirements here to be children of God, faith in Him and to get into Jesus, baptism. That is exactly what...

    A Test Of Reading Comprehension and Honesty

    Yes, please do. You have seperated baptized into Christ and water baptism. Please explain Galatians 3:26-27, - For you are all sons of God through faith in Christ Jesus. - For as many of you as were baptized into Christ have put on Christ. Which baptism is verse 27? Romans 6:3-4, - Or do you...

    A Test Of Reading Comprehension and Honesty

    Why did God tell him to go into the city and it will be told you what you must do? We know when Jesus preached His gospel he included baptism, Mark 16:15-16. Why did Ananias teach him to be baptized if he had already learned the gospel of Christ? He would not need Ananias to tell him to be...

    A Test Of Reading Comprehension and Honesty

    The Mosical law that the thief on cross died under could not save anyone, I agree, Acts 13:39, - And by Him everyone who believes is justified from all things from which you could not be justified by the law of Moses. Biblical faith rightly defined is what must be established to understand...
