Stating that Peter instructed all to be baptized with water for the remission of sins. His is a baptism of repentance. It is plain as day to myself. This is on topic so, what is your issue really?

To be baptized with John's baptism, is one of repentance, and for remission of sins. Acts 2:38 "Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost."

Thank you!

Well, the soup turned out fine but, I will be adding more garlic. Time for some fresh crusty Italian Pane bread to go with the soup :)

Making a new soup today. Sounds wonderful! https://thishealthytable.com/blog/white-bean-soup-with-chicken/

2 Corinthians 9:7 Acts 20:35 Luke 6:38 Proverbs 20:10 "Differing weights and differing measures, Both of them are abominable to the Lord." Proverbs 11:1 "A false balance is an abomination to the Lord, But a just weight is His delight." Proverbs 16:11 "A just balance and scales belong to...

And I will be flying to Greensboro end of April, or beginning of May! We will keep one another in prayer! :eek:

Thank you Walter but, I have still much to learn.

@WalterandDebbie Forgive me for going off topic, I was not thinking clearly, I will read Sam 18 now, especially vs. 15. I find that Absalom was very proud of his hair, which was abundant. Also that he was hanged by his hair and was speared by ten men because of him sleeping with 10 of David's...

Okay, I've read all of 2 Samuel 13. Yes David was angry but did nothing to Amnon because he was his 1st son, being the next in line for Kingship (hmmm) Also yes, as you say @Wrangler, David was guilty of adultery himself as well as sending Uriah to the front lines to be killed, so he then...

Yes, just found that out but, doesn't mean it was okay to rape his sister and toss her aside like a piece of garbage.

Well, that is a lot of stuff and I do not understand some things. Still though, I suppose David was not able to punish him as Absalom had already had him killed...?

I wonder why David did not punish the man who raped Absalom's sister :IDK:

John 3:6 "That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit." 1st birth, flesh 2nd birth, Spirit. But this is not something we must agree on brother, thank you for the replies.

Hmm, not at all sure of what this has to do with Jesus and Nicodemus's conversation. But thanks :)

Praying for wisdom to make the hard decisions! Amen.

Hi Scott, Just a quick question and comment. If we are to be born again, we would have to have been born already, once (through the flesh or, from your mother which yes, it is of the flesh -John 3:6 "That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit." So...

Thank you Scott, I like your explanation. "John 6 answers a lot of questions on being foreknown and predestined to be the children of God God's work is that you believe in Christ, Jesus adds on and says all those the Father gives to Him will come to Him. If God has not foreknown and...
