    Acts 2:38 has been abandoned by Christianity

    Already answered multiple times Your like a broken record. Show me why Peter used different word types. Or show me that you are wrong.

    Acts 2:38 has been abandoned by Christianity

    This is contradictory. He did not say water. So using your own argument you argue against yourself. The fact Jesus did not mention it in John 3 and other places. PROVES it can not be water.

    Acts 2:38 has been abandoned by Christianity

    Salvation has never been by faith plus works. Paul makes this clear in Romans 4. Gal 3.

    Once Saved Always Saved

    They were available in any city. In the church Which is sad, considering in the book of Acts the church was seen in homes. The temple was seen as the body. Not some expensive building. They also met continuously. Not just on Sunday No. I am talking about the eucharist. Not the lords supper and...

    Acts 2:38 has been abandoned by Christianity

    So you can not answer the issue? I did not think you could. So I can not follow you. I must go with the word. Again, You do whatever you wish. Until you can answer why those words are different, You have NOTHING to offer me. The jews rejected christ going with what many said, and not the few...

    Acts 2:38 has been abandoned by Christianity

    No but he did say there was a difference between water baptism and spirit baptism. As did John the baptist. when John proclaimed he would baptize with the spirit and fire Jesus did not say baptize in water, You did. So your own argument is against you

    Once Saved Always Saved

    This is interesting considering Peter called the writings of Paul scripture. Which shows that at the time jews all over the roman empire were reading the word with pauls writings included. I do not think God waited until constantine to make sure his word was complete. And his word was not...

    Acts 2:38 has been abandoned by Christianity

    I do not care what MOST people think. I care what the BIBLE SAYS Repent- Metanoeo - verb, aorist, Active, imperative second person, plural Be Baptized - Baptizo - Verb, Aorist, Passive, Imperative, Third Person Singular Until you or anyone else can adequately explain why both words are of...

    Acts 2:38 has been abandoned by Christianity

    Jesus said whoever believes in him will not perish but have eternal life He also said whoever believes is not condemned, Whoever does not believe is condemned already. He also told peter they would be baptized by the spirit. So when Jesus said whoever believes and is baptized. It can ONLY be...

    Acts 2:38 has been abandoned by Christianity

    No, salvation by water baptism is not Grace, It is works. It is no different than claiming a person in the OT could not be saved unless they were circumcized. Paul called it works, even though it was not done by You. Because it was done to receive salvation. Paul said I have been spiritually...

    Acts 2:38 has been abandoned by Christianity

    Translators are not inspired. The greek was So was Luke again, You can not look at the greek and translat it that way It would be like saying all of you repent, and let THEM be baptized. That makes no sense

    Acts 2:38 has been abandoned by Christianity

    Nope. I never said this at all. No your reverting to bearing false witness. I got ya on the run I see No one was able to enter the presence of God unless GOD WASHED THEM. I was saved by the washing and renewal of the spirit. Not my pastor.

    Acts 2:38 has been abandoned by Christianity

    If your required to do tje work of baptism. You can boast. So not is is not of grace the way you interpret it. Now, acts 2 interpreted correctly is grace. People who saved by repentance and faith, And as Luke said, Those who believed (given eternal life because they believed) were baptized for...

    Acts 2:38 has been abandoned by Christianity

    dude you can read me every english interpretation you want. The greek does not say what the english says. The KJV 1600 is the only one which even comes close. When it says repent YE (plural) and let everyone of you (singular) Your argument is with Luke, who wrote the words. Not me

    Acts 2:38 has been abandoned by Christianity

    again, FOR does not always mean in order to recieve, Not in scripture or in english So to claim it MUST mean in order to recieve, Y9u have to show in other areas where that is true? I am redeemed by the blood. Not by water baptism. You want to try to redeem yourself in water, Feel free.. Me...

    Acts 2:38 has been abandoned by Christianity

    Salvation has been by grace through faith since the beginning of time. Jesus who is the same yesterday today and tomorrow. did not make it harder for the NT people to be saved by adding water baptism. thats a little silly if you ask me

    Acts 2:38 has been abandoned by Christianity

    Nope. Peter did not say this, Thats your english interpretation of what Peter said. The greek does not allow for that. In the greek Peter told EVERYONE to repent and they will recieve the gift of the spirit (2nd person plural) He told certain induviduals to be baptized, for the remission of...

    Acts 2:38 has been abandoned by Christianity

    The term translated "for" does always mean in order to receive, this is a fallacy of seing the word for and assuming it always means in order to get. When it not only does not mean that in the greek (eis) but it does not mean it in english

    Acts 2:38 has been abandoned by Christianity

    Nah I just want to do what the tax collector did and get on my knees, And cry out to God to show mercy on me a sinner, out of becoming Bankrupt in spirit. And let God save me through the washing (baptism) and renewal (new birth) of the holy spirit. Then after all of this. I want to do what God...
