Hi GB,
If we are given some divine wisdom
we do not own it but it belongs to our Saviour God.
We do not need to take things personally when our understandings are challenged.
If we do we show they are of us.Jas 3
11Doth a fountain send forth at the same place sweet water and bitter?12Can the fig tree, my brethren, bear olive berries? either a vine, figs? so can no fountain both yield salt water and fresh.
13Who is a wise man and endued with knowledge among you? let him shew out of a good conversation his works with meekness of wisdom.
14But if ye have bitter envying and strife in your hearts, glory not, and lie not against the truth.
15This wisdom descendeth not from above, but is earthly, sensual, devilish.
16For where envying and strife is, there is confusion and every evil work.
17But the wisdom that is from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, and easy to be intreated, full of mercy and good fruits, without partiality, and without hypocrisy.
18And the fruit of righteousness is sown in peace of them that make peace.
Nick……Being that you brought these thing out are you accusing me of them if so at least be man enough to say.
truth does count also.

Quote (Gene Balthrop @ June 02 2008,13:36) Nick……The Apostles all baptized with water at first, they were new in the faith and were growing in understanding all the time from a Carnal way of looking at things to a Spiritual way of seeing things. And you just switched subject matter again, the question was about Logic and Understanding as i recall< You were say you didn't need Logic and understanding remember. please stay on subject. You and WJ aught to team up your both good at dancing around Specific questions. IMO…..gene
Hi GB,
You still maintain that the baptisms in water seen in ACTS is a sign of the ignorance and immaturity of the apostles??Nick…….I have no problem with water baptisms at all I was water baptized twice in my life, So were the disciples but they were still unconverted or Jesus would not have said to them what he did. And to think the disciples did grow in grace and knowledge and mature as they went along is not putting them down.

Nick………there you go again saying something i never said or implied either.
Your amazing and you say i put words in peoples mouths. Give me a break.
Show me where i rejected any scripture and that includes Act also. I have given you 12 scriptures on what Jesus said concerning the words He Spoke and you still don't accept them for what they say, do you. I think your the one who rejects scripture and even those Jesus himself said.IMO………gene

Nick….Show me what i said against baptism I have said i am (NOT) against water Baptism, But water baptism is not what saves any body it the baptism of the Spirit and Fire that is what saves people. The disciples were not changed until they received the Baptism of the Spirit and Fire that Jesus promised would come, if you can't handle that to to bad, it the truth.
