I’d like to comment on Mark 16:16. It is a common argument against baptism to say that because Jesus did not say “he that is not baptized will be condemned in the last half of that verse, then baptism is not necessary to salvation. It’s always been a puzzle to me that if that is true, then why...

1Peter 3:21. Acts 2:38 says it is for the forgiveness of sins; Acts 22:16 says it “washes away sins”; and Jesus Himself puts it BEFORE salvation —not after salvation.

Interesting that you say baptism does not save , when Peter says that it does.

Saying a “sinner’s prayer” to be saved is not in the Bible. It is a man made command. Do not be deceived. In critical thinking, you look at ALL the evidence and then you draw a conclusion. That’s exactly what Psalms 119:160 says. It’s the “SUM” of God’s word that is truth. Also, you...

1Thessalonians 4:17 is the scripture used to teach a false doctrine. In this verse the words “ caught up” are called the “rapture”. The words IN LATIN are called “rapture” so I guess you could call it that, but this chapter is not talking about a SECRET “snatching away” of the righteous as...

Acts 1:4- the word Promise is referring to the Holy Spirit and is capitalized; all pronouns referring to Christ are capitalized Isaiah 49:7, the word “One” Hebrews 3:3 and Ephesians 1:7, Romans 5:17, “Servant” in Isaiah 53:11,, Revelation 12 the word “Child”; and James 4:12 the word “Lawgiver”...

You make several good points. However, most people fail to understand that “speaking in tongues” was a New Testament practice lasting only until the perfect word of God was complete and delivered to the saints. I Corinthians 13 says that “where there are tongues, they shall cease”…when that...

Wayne gave scripture as proof of his argument. Where is your “proof”? Where is the scripture that teaches what you say? You cannot ask us to believe it just because you say so. Yes, in the first century there was Holy Spirit baptism, BUT… it had to be “given” by God and as far as I can find...

2 Timothy 3:16 says that ALL scripture is inspired by God. There are 3 in the godhead: God, the Father; God, the Son; and God, the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit is just as much GOD as Jesus. 2 Peter 1:21 days that we got the scriptures by “holy men of God spoke as they were moved by the...

I agree. The principles that apply here to tithing, also apply to keeping the Sabbath day and all other practices under the old law of the Jews.

In a previous post, I discussed how there were 3 different laws in the Bible. The first was the Patriarchal law (Genesis) that was universal for all people and races. (Called the law of the father’s). Abraham, Issac, Jacob, and Joseph all lived under this law. Then God chose a...

I understand why you feel this way. And I partly agree with you. Denominationalism is scriptually wrong. Jesus prayed that we would all be one. The scriptures teach that division is wrong. The word “denominate” means to divide. The Catholic Church claims to be the first church but that is a...

I probably would not qualify as one to answer your question since I don’t have a vast knowledge of the Hebrew or Greek language but my question is, what is the problem? Does God not mean what he says? The fact that most people totally ignore what the Holy Spirit says or try to explain it away...

Iam rather new to this site. Are we allowed to state our beliefs that might not agree with others or not?

I would like to have a Bible Study where we search the scriptures to see what they say. Did you have a topic in mind? I have a few that I can suggest.
