A baptized believer is indwelt with the Holy Spirit not simply a believer.

The only way the miraculous gifts were manifested other than Acts 10, which was not the norm and unique as a sign the Gentiles could be brought into the church, was by the laying on of the apostle's hands as shown by Acts 19 with Paul. The Gentiles did not have the indwelling of the Spirit nor...

I personally like and use the KJV, but it is not flawless and one must be aware if it's flaws such as it's total misleading mistranslation using the word Easter for "pascha", which means passover in Acts 12:4.

You are not understanding Acts 10 nor are you understanding Acts 2:38. The gift (singular, not gifts) of the Holy Ghost in Acts 2:38, is the Holy Ghost or Spirit itself which everyone receives upon baptism, and NOT the gifts obtained by or through the Spirit, those listed in 1 Cor 12:8-10, that...

Not so. What scriptures say or infer that? There are none! And read the letters that Paul wrote.

No, I don't need another bible. What statement was being made by the Ethiopian eunuch in Acts 8 and to whom was his conversion made a public statement to?? It was him and Philip there in the middle of nowhere! You don't know what you're talking about.

Goodbye, you don't know what you're talking about and obviously can't read or willfully choose to ignor the scriptures.

You are somehow missing the point. Belief alone is not enough. If you believe, then you'll do something about it and then be obedient, but your belief is vain if you don't follow through with it by being obedient. You can cherrypick scriptures all you want in an attempt to justify your erroneous...

Those that did not OBEY the gospel and know not God 2 Thes 1:7-10 7And to you who are troubled rest with us, when the Lord Jesus shall be revealed from heaven with his mighty angels, 8In flaming fire taking vengeance on them that know not God, and that obey not the gospel of our Lord Jesus...

It's a record of the acts of the apostles, also sometimes referred to as the book of conversions. So it is a book of conversions as it's sometimes called, it should be a guide for all that read it to follow as to how one becomes converted or saved.

It's nothing: simply a man made-up so-called religious holiday with no scriptural foundation.

Go back and read the bible and put all the pieces together so you get the complete picture instead of cherry picking scriptures in a feeble attempt to justify an incorrect belief. Goodbye.

You can't believe unto salvation. Belief is the 1st step. Read the account of the conversion of the Ethiopian eunuch in Acts 8. He believed, he confessed his belief, and was baptized. Belief alone means nothing, even devils believe and shudder according to James. Mark 16:15-16 15And he said...

You obviously don't know what you're taking about. It's not true? Then God is a lier because his inspired writers and words say otherwise. Mark 16:15-16 (in Jesus own words) 15And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature. 16He that believeth and is...

If you don't believe, that's it. What more needs to be said? It's illogical go say and is not baptized if you don't believe. It's a moot point. Makes zero sense.

Surely you know that the entirety of a topic is not found in only one scripture! If you think that the entire set if requirements is repeated each and every time the topic is discussed ir written about in the multitude of contexts if the various letters written, you are quite naive and lack...

No scriptures support that. Mark 16:15-16 15And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature. 16He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned. Belief + baptism = salvation

Obeying commands that deal directly with salvation can't be ignored unless done out of ignorance or arrogance. Mark 16:15:16 "15And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature. 16He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth...

You are not understanding Acts 10 nor Acts 2 which is similar. In both cases, the spirit fell unilaterally on the apostles in Acts 2 and the Gentiles in Acts 10, and it did so as a sign, to validate what was happening by that sign. In both cases, the church was established, 1st amongst the...

What do you mean "a work"? It's a command that must be obeyed as part of the salvation process. Everything done in the physical body is some kind of work including confessing your belief with the mouth in order to comply with Romans 10:9.
