    What is the Lords Day?

    Jesus actually kept the Sabbath. The Pharisees hated Jesus because He did not support their legalism. Jesus said, “the Son of man is Lord of the Sabbath.” This statement was in response to the accusation by the Pharisees that Jesus' disciples were breaking the law regarding resting on the...

    How Can a Person Be Born Again?

    I would just like to add more verses in regard to the "water is a symbol of cleansing" interpretation. In John 4:10, Jesus said - “If you knew the gift of God, and who it is who says to you, ‘Give Me a drink,’ you would have asked Him, and He would have given you living water" and in John 4:14...

    The confession that frees…

    Romans 10:8 - But what does it say? “The word is near you, in your mouth and in your heart” (that is, the word of faith which we preach): 9 that if you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved. 10 For with the...

    How to put on Christ

    The Bible makes it clear that men are saved prior to receiving water baptism. These Gentiles in Acts 10 received the gift of the Holy Spirit and were manifesting the spiritual gift of tongues (which is only for the body of Christ - 1 Corinthians 12) after believing the gospel but before...

    How to put on Christ

    Compare your biased interpretation of Acts 2:38 with Acts 10:43-47. Acts 2:38 is not the only verse in the Bible. I have changed nothing. I simply properly harmonize scripture with scripture before reaching my conclusion on doctrine and the only logical conclusion when properly harmonizing...

    How to put on Christ

    Of course, we must repent (change our mind) in order to be saved because if we don't repent then we will not believe the gospel and become saved. (Acts 11:17,18; 15:7-9) Repentance and faith are two sides to the same coin. Where you have one you must have the other. Repentance unto salvation...

    Jesus kept the Sabbath

    Exactly. Galatians 4:4 - But when the fullness of the time had come, God sent forth His Son, born of a woman, born under the law, 5 to redeem those who were under the law, that we might receive the adoption as sons. Colossians 2:14 - Blotting out the handwriting of ordinances that was against...

    Re Spirit baptism

    In John 3:5, Jesus said, "born of water and the Spirit" and NOT born of baptism and the Spirit. Jesus mentions "living water" in (John 4:10, 14; 7:37-39) and in John 7:38-39, we read - "He who believes in Me, as the Scripture has said, out of his heart will flow rivers of living water. But this...

    Baptized Into Christ, Rightly Divided Summary...

    Amen! Certain people may try to argue that the thief may have been converted, was water baptized, yet the fruit of that is being crucified as a thief? - (highly unlikely) In Matthew 27:39-44, we see that those who passed by, along with the chief priests scribes and elders blasphemed, mocked and...

    Baptized Into Christ, Rightly Divided Summary...

    There is only one baptism that places us into the body of Christ and that is Spirit baptism, not water baptism. Ephesians 4:5 - one Lord, one faith, one baptism. 1 Corinthians 12:13 - For by one Spirit we were all baptized into one body--whether Jews or Greeks, whether slaves or free--and have...

    Do you think only people aged 25 should be allowed to use and own guns?

    Biden announces the creation of first White House Office of Gun Violence Prevention to be led by Harris. Led by Harris is a scary thought! :eek: https://www.foxnews.com/politics/biden-announces-creation-first-white-house-office-gun-violence-prevention-led-harris

    Do you think only people aged 25 should be allowed to use and own guns?

    https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2023/09/biden-install-anti-2nd-amendment-activists-white-house/ Gun control extremists have been lobbying for Biden to take substantive action ever since he took office. His administration, in fact, has bypassed Congress with rules and regulations that impose...

    Mark 16:16 Isn’t Teaching That You Must Be Water Baptized to Go to Heaven

    Jesus clarified the first clause with ..but he who does not believe will be condemned. What I shared with you is not faulty reasoning. We need to properly harmonize scripture with scripture before reaching our conclusion on doctrine. That is faulty reasoning. If someone does not believe in the...

    Why does Christ say to keep the Commandments?

    So, you understand Jeses' answer to mean that keeping the commandments is the basis or means by which we obtain eternal life? Obviously you do. Jesus showed the rich young ruler how short he falls of keeping even the first commandment (Exodus 20:3) which is the first of the two great...

    Why does Christ say to keep the Commandments?

    I did not ignore, and I do not fight against what Christ upheld for us to observe, "to love God and our fellow man" as stated by Hobie. So, what's the problem?

    Mark 16:16 Isn’t Teaching That You Must Be Water Baptized to Go to Heaven

    Mark 16:16 - He who believes and is baptized will be saved (general cases without making a qualification for the unusual case of someone who believes but is not baptized) but he who does not believe will be condemned. The omission of baptized with "does not believe" shows that Jesus does not...
