I have not ignored anything and you remain confused and indoctrinated. :(

Mark 16:16(b) lines up perfectly with what Jesus said in (John 3:16,16,28; 5:24; 6:29,40,47; 11:25:26) and Jesus (unlike you) is not naïve to the fact that there have been numerous people who attend various false religions and cults that have been water baptized but do not truly believe unto...

Jesus clarifies the first clause with the second clause for the Campbellites - ..but he who does not believe will be condemned.

Although it is our responsibility to believe and we will be held accountable for unbelief (John 3:18), saving belief in Christ is not exclusively a matter of human decision. Unless the Father draws us and enables us/it has been granted him from the Father, we would never come to believe all by...

Paul's point is a clear presentation of the gospel (faith comes by hearing) must precede saving faith in Christ/believing the gospel. We must first believe that Jesus is the Christ before we can trust in His death, burial and resurrection as the ALL-sufficient means of our salvation. (Romans...

In regards to Matthew 10:33, in context, this passage relates to the fact that the Pharisees had continuously denied Jesus while the disciples continued to confess Christ in every city they visited. We might paraphrase His teaching this way: "Whoever confesses me before men (such as you...

Straw man argument and yes, it's so. How do you think people come to faith without first changing their mind in the process? Acts 20:21 - testifying both to Jews and to Greeks of repentance toward God and of faith in our Lord Jesus Christ. *Notice the order.

Repentance precedes saving belief in Christ which precedes baptism. (Acts 10:43-47) Go back and read post #630 again and be sure to check out the article from the link below: Faith and Repentance

He is God. (John 1:1-3, 14)

You obviously do not understand how to properly harmonize scripture with scripture before reaching your conclusion on doctrine. Yes, believeth in Him "apart from additions or modifications." *What happened to baptism? Don't need to ask, "what happened to repentance" because repentance already...

Hebrews 3:14 - For we have become [past tense Greek verb, gegonamen, meaning we have become already] partakers of Christ, if we hold fast the beginning of our confidence steadfast to the end. Notice that this is essentially a repeat of verse 6, where we read: but Christ was faithful as a Son...

I never skipped repentance and I already repented several years ago when I changed my mind and chose to believe the gospel. You still need to repent and believe the gospel. You still have not placed your faith in Jesus Christ alone for salvation. Your faith is in “water and works” for salvation.

Those who are truly born of God have received a new nature, a divine nature. (2 Peter 1:4) They have been transformed from pigs and dogs into sheep. The change is more than just cosmetic, as in 2 Peter 2:20. These cleaned up on the outside dogs and pigs in 2 Peter 2:20 were never sheep.

Jesus was the only begotten (one of a kind or unique) Son.

So you admit that these Gentiles in Acts 10:43-47 received the Holy Spirit before water baptism? That's a start. Lost unbelievers do not receive the Holy Spirit and the Gentiles were saved before water baptism. Now why do you suppose there was a delay for the Samaritans to receive the Holy...

Repentance does not need to be mentioned in those verses in the book of John because repentance “precedes” saving belief. *See (Matthew 21:32; Mark 1:15; Acts 20:21) and notice the order.* In Acts 2:38, "for the remission of sins" does not refer back to both clauses, "you all repent" and "each...

They would walk around mountains of grace in order to find water.

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...
