Understanding : Acts 2:38

[Behold]

That is where your teaching is lacking in spiritual Living knowledge imo, you teach the written word, you don’t understand that the Living word is what birthed us into Christ Spirit..

I explained yesterday to you that Jesus is the "living Word" and "Christ is THAT Spirit".

Jesus is the "Word made flesh" and i posted this to you yesterday.

This is the Holy Spirit, as = "Christ is THAT Spirit"..... and its the Holy Spirt WHO performs the New Birth.

This is to become Born again BY the Holy Spirit.


What you been taught, and i guess this happened to you on that Hyper Calvinist forum where you use to go...

You've been taught that you are born again, before actually have faith in Christ, and that is not only a lie, its Spiritually impossible.

Noone is born again,..... which it to become Joined to God, Spiritually,....... until you SIN is forgiven first.. .So, you have to be forgiven all your sin, before you can be born again, which is to become JOINED To God's Spirit.

To be forgiven, you have to give God Your FAITH In Christ, as that is WHY He then takes the Blood of Jesus and forgives your sin.
And THEN, now being "made righteous", God then births your spirit in spiritual union with His.

You teach... as all the deceived HYPER Calvinist Teach, that you are born again so that you can BELIEVE in Jesus., after you are born again.

So, your theology has the "Born again" happening.... before you have given God faith in Christ, first.. . And so that LIE you are teaching, is literally saying that you are born again, before your sin was forgiven.

As when you teach that you are born again to be able to BELIEVE (See The Cross)...., then that means you have not Given God your Faith in Christ .... First........so that God can THEN forgive you, and make you righteous.. as He has to do that before He can join Himself to you, which is to become Born again.

So, you are the "red flag". as Hyper Calvinism that owns your understanding, is the Devil's lie.

 

[Behold]

Where Does the Bible Mention the Word of God Is Alive?​

The Word of God who is Jesus Pre-Incarnate, who is Jesus in the Flesh, the GOD-Man... now Risen from the Dead.


Notice that your verse is "upper case"...

Its "W"ord of God......vs word of God

"W"ord of God, is JESUS, He is the "WORD made flesh."

Pre-Incarnate JESUS, is John 1.. "the WORD was God".

The BIBLE is the "w"ord of God".

Pre-Incarnate JESUS, is John 1.. "the WORD was God".

The BIBLE is the "w"ord of God".

The Living word of God is His Spirit.

Jesus came to represent God, Jesus was God’s spokesperson...while he was Alive on the earth....he was the Living word.

The cross represents how we become Born Again , we become Born Again because of the cross, the cross doesn’t save....the Living Spirit is what saves, just as His Living word says....Born Again of imperishable seed, ( Living word of God) that liveth and abideth forever.

Liveth and abideth in our heart/ spirit....Gods Living word......backed up by His written word.

We are Born Again by the Living Holy Spirit.

Not by the cross....because of the cross, that’s how we are Born Again if God so chooses.

Because of Jesus death, we are able to become Born Again by His Living Spirit.

 

[Behold]

The Living word of God is His Spirit.

I just previous posted for you, that exact fact, plus a bit more.

The Holy Spirit is the Living word.

To become Born Again by the “ Living “ Holy Spirit “

What you been taught, and i guess this happened to you on that Hyper Calvinist forum where you use to go...

You've been taught that you are born again, before actually have faith in Christ, and that is not only a lie, its Spiritually impossible.

I have been taught by the Living word of God backed up by His written word....

Faith is a gift from God, which you deny constantly.....your faith does not save you...your own faith will never grow in the Living Spirit....because it was planted by your word.

Noone is born again,..... which it to become Joined to God, Spiritually,....... until you SIN is forgiven first.. .So, you have to be forgiven all your sin, before you can be born again, which is to become JOINED To God's Spirit.

Never said I was Born Again by the Living word, before God brought me to repentance/ Godly sorrow

Becoming joined to Gods Living Spirit, when Spirit gives birth to spirit?

To be forgiven, you have to give God Your FAITH In Christ, as that is WHY He then takes the Blood of Jesus and forgives your sin.

Nope, to be forgiven, God bring us to that place by the power of his Living Spirit....our sins are forgiven by the Living Spirit, it’s because of Jesus shed blood that we can become Born Again...

And THEN, now being "made righteous", God then births your spirit in spiritual union with His.

We are in the righteousness of Christ as soon as we become Born Of The Living Spirit....we are right before God, because we have been Born Again of imperishable seed...which is His Living Holy Spirit.

The Spirit forgives our sin.....the Living Spirit.

You teach... as all the deceived HYPER Calvinist Teach, that you are born again so that you can BELIEVE in Jesus., after you are born again.

You teach the written word from your own understanding and have imo no knowledge of Gods Living word....as I showed you further up the thread...when you said our spirit doesn’t believe....our spirit does believe when our spirit has been Born Again of imperishable seed.

We are led by the Spirit our spirit is led....by the Living word, backed up by the written word....

We communicate with God via our spirit, we are his spiritual children....we are not worldly children....we have been Born Again of imperishable seed...a Living seed of God...

So, your theology has the "Born again" happening.... before you have given God faith in Christ, first.. . And so that LIE you are teaching, is literally saying that you are born again, before your sin was forgiven.

We are gifted faith by the Living Spirit Of God.....that paragraph you have posted above, is your opinion, nothing Biblical there.

As when you teach that you are born again to be able to BELIEVE (See The Cross)...., then that means you have not Given God your Faith in Christ .... First........so that God can THEN forgive you, and make you righteous.. as He has to do that before He can join Himself to you, which is to become Born again.

So, you are the "red flag". as Hyper Calvinism that owns your understanding, is the Devil's lie.

Again your opinion and your own understanding of the written word.

You need to understand the Bible by Gods Living word...the Holy Spirit is the one who leads our spirit through scripture to understand it, because it’s a Spiritual book.

How many verses do you want?

Lets just go with 2... and the first is pretty much known worldwide.

Now, Calvin rejects this verse, because It denies His doctrine of Devils.

John 3:16, says that Jesus was sent to the """"WORLD""""", (all people) (ALL), and ALL who believe shall be saved.

This denies that Jesus was only sent to the "pre-destined elect"... As John 3:16, says that Jesus was sent the "WORLD"... = ALL People, and not just the "pre-destined".

And Jesus confirms this...

Jesus said..."if I be lifted up (on the Cross) i will draw (call) ALL people to me"

ALL people

ALL

And that is "the WORLD" as found in John 3:16.

Calvin The Deceiver...= denies this.... and says that only the predestined are "chosen"... as that is a "doctrine of devils".. Hebrews 13:9

John Calvin Commentary on John 3:16

For God so loved the world. Christ opens up the first cause, and, as it were, the source of our salvation, and he does so, that no doubt may remain; for our minds cannot find calm repose, until we arrive at the unmerited love of God. As the whole matter of our salvation must not be sought anywhere else than in Christ, so we must see whence Christ came to us, and why he was offered to be our Savior. Both points are distinctly stated to us: namely, that faith in Christ brings life to all, and that Christ brought life, because the Heavenly Father loves the human race, and wishes that they should not perish. And this order ought to be carefully observed; for such is the wicked ambition which belongs to our nature, that when the question relates to the origin of our salvation, we quickly form diabolical imaginations about our own merits. Accordingly, we imagine that God is reconciled to us, because he has reckoned us worthy that he should look upon us. But Scripture everywhere extols his pure and unmingled mercy, which sets aside all merits.

 

[Ritajanice]

I just previous posted for you, that exact fact, plus a bit more.

How would you know that Gods Spirit is Alive?

 

[Behold]

We are gifted faith by the Living Spirit Of God...

You have become "stuck on Repeat".

Calvinism or "TULIP">... does that to the people it owns.

Listen, You tried to teach , yesterdaY" That "Gifts of the Spirit" (That Paul teaches).....that are given to the BORN AGAIN...that this CHRISTIAN GifT of FAITH, a "Spiritual Gift"... given to the Body of Christ, is given to UNBELIEVERS who are not born again.

Did you want to teach that lie again?

This is nothing but confusion...not an ounce of scripture in those words....man made theology...your man made theology..

Did you want to teach that lie again?

The Nature of Spiritual Gifts​

In 1 Corinthians 12, Paul dealt with the gifts of the Holy Spirit. He opened the chapter with the statement, “Now concerning spiritual gifts, brethren, I do not want you to be unaware” (v. 1). Then, in verses seven through eleven, he listed nine distinct gifts:

God gives all Christians saving faith. 1 Corinthians 12:7-11 lists a number of spiritual gifts, including the gift of faith: “To one there is given through the Spirit a message of wisdom, to another a message of knowledge by means of the same Spirit, to another faith by the same Spirit…”


You deny the Living word of God......you imo only post the written word ...which imo understand from your own perspective....

You can’t even answer my questions regarding, how do you know that the Living word of God is Alive and Active?

Is the Living Spirit Alive And Active in your spirit?

Do you have those spiritual eyes and ears?

And that is "the WORLD" as found in John 3:16.

Calvin The Deceiver...= denies this.... and says that only the predestined are "chosen"... as that is a "doctrine of devils".. Hebrews 13:9

Calvin on Hebrews 13:9
Calvin concludes that we ought not to fluctuate, since the truth of Christ, in which we ought to stand firm, remains fixed and unchangeable. And doubtless, variety of opinions, every kind of superstition, all monstrous errors, in a word, all corruptions in religion, arise from this, that men abide not in Christ alone; for it is not in vain that Paul teaches us, that Christ is given to us by God to be our wisdom.

1 Corinthians 1:30 - But of Him you are in Christ Jesus, who became for us wisdom from God—and righteousness and sanctification and redemption—

 

[Behold]

“Now concerning spiritual gifts, brethren, I do not want you to be unaware”​

Listen.

Look at = ""BRETHREN,<<<<<<<< = concerning Spiritual Gifts, I do not want YOU " = BRETHREN... = THE BORN AGAIN...."to be unaware".


See that? Paul is talking to the Corinthian Church.....The BELIEVERS born again.... As Paul converted them.

They are Paul's born again CONVERTs... This is why this Epistle is written to the CHURCH AT Corinith.

Do you understand?

He's Talking only to the BORN AGAIN, who are given Spiritual Gifts... like "the Gift of Faith". or "Discernment" or "tongues".

Those are Spiritual Gift's given to the BORN AGAIN.

You are teaching the LIE that one of these BODY OF CHRIST, born again Believer's Spiritual Gifts, is given to unbelievers so that they can trust in Christ.

Thats not TRUE.
So, you need to get away from what is causing you to teach deception... @Ritajanice

This is not WorthyChristianForums.....so, here on this forum, they are not going to ban you for your endless Hyper Calvinism Ranting.. like they did at Worthy.

So, you have to see it for yourself, ... and get away from this False Doctrine of Devils.

You were not teaching this demonic garbage a year ago, but now you are deep in it again.

I am teaching that when God forgives our sins when he brings us to repentance/ Godly sorrow....and makes us Born Again of imperishable seed...we receive the gift of Faith as he births our spirit into his....Spirit gives birth to spirit?

Thats not TRUE.

I ask once again....how would you know that the word of God is Alive and Active?

Is he Alive and Active in your spirit?

If he is, how would you know that Gods Spirit is at work in you?

If you have been Born Again of imperishable seed.....as a teacher that you say your are...then you should know in your spirit the answer to that question?

 

[Behold]

I ask once again....how would you know that the word of God is Alive and Active?

You are teaching that A Christian's Spiritual gift, is what made you as an unbeliever trust in Christ.

So, as you are beyond confused, you dont need to asking redundant repetitive questions that have been answered already..., you need to be resolving your deep deception.

You are on the right forum, as they'll let you continue, but, never think that's God's will for you.

See, God is not in the CALVINISM business.

God is not a Calvinist.

ok then.

Do as tho wilt.

Do you also disagree with Hulrich Zwingli? John Knox, Martin Luther, Gillaume Farel? Calvin incorporated Zwingli in his writings. John Knox brought Calvinism to Scotland. Marlin Luther and Zwingli met together.

I pray that God opens your heart to receive his Living word.....as of yet from the discernment I have been given, you are teaching the written word without the Spirit of God.....that is what I see with my spiritual eyes and hear with my spiritual ears.

Behold teaching his own theology and trying to GLORIFY his name.


Taking all Glory away from God....which won’t happen on my shift....Praise God.

God is not a Calvinist.
Jesus is not a Calvinist
The Apostle Paul is not a Calvinist.
The Bible does not Teach Calvinism.

God makes : CHRISTIANS

Calvin makes : Calvinists.

= These are not the same.

 

[Behold]

I pray that God opens your heart to receive his Living word..

Pray that one for yourself. @Ritajanice

You are the person teaching that The Spiritual Gifts given to the Body of Christ are given to Unbelievers.

You have some praying to do.
That's a fact.

 

[Behold]

Paul wrote that "Christ sent me not to water baptize"..

Yet, Paul was water baptized" and Paul also water baptized...tho not much.

In Acts 8 we find that Phillip told the EUNUCH.......that He could be water baptized, "IF you have believed with all your heart.. FIRST".

So, we see that Paul and Phillip understood that Water Baptism, is not Salvation. Nor is it required for salvation.

Water Baptism, is subsequent to Salvation,.. it follow Salvation. You are to be water baptized because you are already Saved.

 

[Behold]

Can you go to heaven, having never been water baptized?

The Dying Thief on the Cross...Votes : YES.

Can you go to heaven, if you believe that because you are water baptized, then "all you sin is washed away" during baptism?

Its unlikely....and that is because......The Revelation of Jesus dying on the Cross for your sin, has to become the TRUTH for you.
You have to believe this..
Its up to YOU to be the BELIEVER...
You have to have Trust, that Jesus is the reason God accepts you, and the Only Reason..

So, when something else, like water baptism, has become your FAITH..and your TRUST... then that is not Faith in Christ.., and thats a problem.

Dont be that one...

Yes, that imo the Spirit Of God agrees in my spirit....water does not save...only the Living Spirit Of God can save us from eternal damnation,when we become Born Again of imperishable seed.
