    Baptism in Jesus’ Name?

    The Holy Spirit moves in after belief in Jesus. After Peter preached the forgiveness of sins, the Holy Spirit fell on those that heard the word, Acts 10:44. We are to baptize one another in the name of the Father, and the Son and the Holy Spirit to believe the Trinitarian view because to...

    A warning to born-again believers who are sinning habitually

    Believers are righteous not by what they do but what Jesus has done for them. It isn't our faith, it's His. Galatians 2:20, I have been crucified with Christ and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me. The life I now live in the body, I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave...

    A warning to born-again believers who are sinning habitually

    To repent is to change your mind, metanoia. In the Old Covenant people didn't have the Holy Spirit living in them and needed prophets to tell them what to do, their base desire was reward and punishment. God wanted a relationship with us, with no separation. A relationship with the Son is a...

    Proof: You were only forgiven of your past sins!

    Start at verse 9 in Acts and read until verse 24 for the full picture. Hebrews 10, verse 26, doesn't describe what the sinning is but verse 29 does. It's never wise to throw out just one verse without the surrounding verses with it because it's just too easy to read into something that just...

    JOHN'S BAPTISM

    Jesus is God and we are to baptize one another in the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Ghost. Believing the Trinitarian view and to believe anything but the Trinity goes against scripture. The Trinity is based on the scriptures. When there is belief in His Son, the Holy Ghost moves in...

    Many are called but few are chosen

    Chosen in Hebrew is election in English. To be the elect, the chosen, the church, isn't an accident. It's a predetermined act of God. Before Adam sinned, God had a plan to purchase us with His blood. We are all elected but not all will belong to the church of Jesus Christ.

    Sound Doctrine

    Mary had a doctrinal flaw when she didn't believe in the resurrection of Jesus but Jesus revealed Himself to her anyway. Good thing Jesus sees past our doctrinal flaws and looks into our heart and even if we seek Him in the wrong places, He will say our name, and reveal Himself, just like He...

    Proof: You were only forgiven of your past sins!

    The only sin is unbelief, rejecting the sacrifice. Did Jesus say sinning is the issue or that their deeds are evil and they love darkness, not light?

    Proof: You were only forgiven of your past sins!

    God was reconciled to man at the cross, yes? If God was reconciled to man only for the sins that had already happened then God would have to abandon you at the moment you sin.

    Proof: You were only forgiven of your past sins!

    Since all sin was paid for on the cross, what sin can you commit that Jesus hasn't already paid for and would have to be put back on the cross for?

    Did Jesus leave us with a religion??

    Ok, have a nice day!

    Did Jesus leave us with a religion??

    He is addressing the church in the above verse and previous verses but it changes over to "any man" in the 20th verse. Rev 3:20, Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me. What was being...

    Did Jesus leave us with a religion??

    Did Jesus rebuke the woman at the well?

    Did Jesus leave us with a religion??

    Religion rebukes, Jesus does not. The woman at the well is a good example of this, John 4. Jesus reveals her secrets that only God can know and with that, she sees His love and tells her family about Him. Christianity is a religion if it's about what you can do and not what Jesus has done for you.

    After Seperation but before Divorce

    If there is abuse within the marriage, divorce and move on. Compassion and empathy cannot be taught and behavior modification does not transform. Marriage and divorce are used as a metaphor for freedom from the Law and Romans 7 lets us know what happens after belief in Jesus Christ and with...

    what makes a prophet?

    What is happening in the churches isn't all good and those sitting in the pews need to be fed, don't be so naive. Matthew 21:13, “It is written,” he said to them, “‘My house will be called a house of prayer,’ but you are making it ‘a den of robbers.” False prophets preach a false gospel and...

    what makes a prophet?

    Does a prophet of God speak doom and gloom? Does a prophet of God predict the future? If yes, then how is this different from being in the world? Do believers need a crystal ball? Do believers need to be lambasted? The Apostle Paul says we have not received the spirit of the world. 1...

    Biblical divorce ?

    The audience is Jewish, Law dominates and there is freedom from the Law of Moses, how? Marriage and divorce are used as a metaphor. Law dominates as long as they live and they are bound to it as long as the Law lives just like a woman is bound to her husband by the marriage covenant as long as...
