    The Faith OF Christ...

    I think you're confused by the KJV translation. "Faith of Jesus Christ" is talking about the Christian faith, which is the set of doctrines (that is, facts) about Jesus that we believe, and thereby trust in Him as our Lord and Savior. It's talking about the faith we have in Christ, as all the...

    A Serious Side Effect

    To the one who says "let's obey it all," my question is this: have you ever stumbled, using your hand or eye? If so, then why haven't you cut off your hand or gouged out your eye? (Mat. 5:30). The problem with cults is that they take statements out of context of the whole message and use it...

    Pauline Absolutes

    Rom. 7:18 is the context of natural man, which by himself, does not have the faith necessary to be justified in God's sight. So, "dwelleth no good thing" is from God's perspective. "In my flesh" means literally "me, myself, and I" separate from God. Man may consider himself having some good...

    A look at Joshua 2: 1-24 and Luke 17:1-18:43

    People often forget that covenant (agreement) is a component of faith. "How can two walk together unless they agree?" (Amos 3:3). To have faith in someone, namely God, one must enter covenant/agreement with God about life, ethics, promise, etc. having to do with the nature of relationship. If a...

    Pentecostalism's sketchy origins

    "he that believeth not the Son shall not see life; but the wrath of God abideth on him." (Jn. 3:36, KJV) Referencing your quote in bold, the scripture disagrees with you. "he" is an individual with particular sin (does not believe). Other translations say "whoever does not obey the Son..." which...

    Pentecostalism's sketchy origins

    The Bible says "whoever believeth not, the wrath of God abideth on him." Don't confuse the wrath of God expended on mankind in the future as described in the book of Revelation with the wrath of God on individuals in which He is patient toward them until His wrath is poured out in lake of fire...

    Pentecostalism's sketchy origins

    Are there any examples of prophecies in the NT, other than what Jesus and Agabus prophesied, and some of the NT writings like Revelation? Since prophecy is one of the spiritual gifts listed in 1 Cor. 12 along with other gifts that are obviously miraculous, I take it from the usage of the term...

    Pentecostalism's sketchy origins

    The video says 1100 doctors, not 11000. But during his voice change, I didn't hear anyone praying, I didn't hear any evidence of people laying hands on him, I didn't hear anyone claiming he was healed by their gift of healing. Yet, those activities and claims are what distinguishes...

    In Texas we say "big hat, no cattle."

    Pentecostalism's sketchy origins

    No, nothing wrong with that. But I get it. The gift of prophecy you are describing is not miraculous, then, but providential. That is, God works through us using our natural abilities. But Biblical tongues, healing, working of miracles, and even prophecy are miraculous gifts, are they not? And I...

    I agree 100%. I've done the same and still hear silence. BTW, you say you have the spiritual gift of prophecy, have you provided a link or video for evaluation? Please don't get me wrong, this is a sincere question, I'd like to see one if you can provide it.

    Yes, I hear this calling, not the counterfeit 'calling' of modern tongues. The reason I post here on this subject is to get P/Cs to get off their high horse about their so-called gift, and get down to business of what God is doing. I also post for anyone who would read this thread seeking the...

    Pentecostalism's sketchy origins

    :sleep: Your argument proves nothing at all. Since all of us who see through the fraud of modern tongues don't accept what you say, if you really want to convince us that your glossolalia is the same thing as what the apostles received in Acts 2, you need to present it for examination. If you...

    Pentecostalism's sketchy origins

    Everyone who has been thinking clearly about the intent of 1 Cor. 14 have agreed with me on the matter. But it is only the tongue-talker crowd that has disagreed. How is that? It's called bias, and having a vested interest in the text reading a certain way. I showed how 1 Cor. 14 (the whole...

    Pentecostalism's sketchy origins

    You also prove my words true by your response, in this way: you resort to judgments instead of being specific about what you object to, in regard to what I said. I've already shown that your interpretation of scripture is faulty, and your silence on those matters indicates that you cannot refute...

    Pentecostalism's sketchy origins

    You're still speaking with your fingers in your ears. You're refusing to address the issues I addressed, but rather resort to personal judgments. Your response thus proves my words true. You claim your so-called 'gift' is of God, and yet you refuse to present it for examination. My words that...

    God works by showing evidence, not by secrecy as the P/C movement does (which cults do also). I suggest reading my "brass tacks" objection to the movement here: https://christianchat.com/threads/pentecostalisms-sketchy-origins.199418/post-4832221
