Three Baptisms Nick, pray about it.

Water baptism does not save us Nick.

And what are you basing your assumptions on?

I believe that one of the greatest of satan's deceptions is to decieve men into believing that there in not an perfect bible translation. That God is not powerful enough to make this happen through sinful man. Yet, why is this so hard to believe, man believes in evolution. Man believes the trinity. Think about this. When the apostles set up the…[Read more]

Nick,The bible plainly says one baptism, yet, is what of the baptism of the Holy Spirit at the day of Pentecost? There are 3 baptisms, blood, water and the Holy Ghost. When one is baptized in water, he is baptized in the name of Jesus. When one is baptized in the Holy Spirit, he is baptized in the name of the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit.…[Read more]

On this we are in one accord. I really enjoy talking with a brother who is mature in the faith. Often times it is so difficult to try and help those on the milk of the word because the Holy Spirit has yet opened their hearts to understanding, but the seeds do get planted. I love you brother.

You lost me on this one bro. Jesus plainly says, that which is born of the flesh is flesh and that which is born of the spirit is spirit. As for the baptism of water, it is symbolic of our dying to our sinful natures, the water being the grave, and arising a new creature in Christ. Nothing more. It will not keep one from salvation or cause one…[Read more]

Brother, here is the problem with your line of thinking. We are men and we are sinners. If we get away from the word of God and depend on the spirit, being men, we will corrupt.

Scripture does call it baptism.Ephesians 4:5 one Lord, one faith, one baptism, 1Cor.12:13 For by one Spirit are we all baptized into one body, whether we be Jews or Gentiles, whether we be bond or free; and have been all made to drink into one Spirit.In the above verse it reveals how all who are born again are baptized into one body. How can this…[Read more]

It is the importance of words why I believe that God would not have his words spread out, but to the point. Look at the early church. They were in one accord. Their doctrine was the same in all churches. What changed was the words. Once the words started becoming corrupted, the church started to change. It is for this reason you have all the…[Read more]

I am not so sure brother. He said a man must be born of water and of spirit to enter into the kingdom of God. Adam was never physically born. Now either Jesus said this to keep Adam from heaven or to keep fallen angels who may take over the bodies of men for heaven, I do not know. Yet, it is interesting, for there must be a reason for the Lord to…[Read more]

When we are born again, Jesus, our high priest, washes away our sins with his blood. This is the baptism that saves us, that transforms us into new creatures in Christ as Nick stated above.

Dear Nick,Matt. 4:4 But he answered and said, It is written, Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God.7 Jesus said unto him, It is written again, Thou shalt not tempt the Lord thy God.10 Then saith Jesus unto him, Get thee hence, Satan: for it is written, Thou shalt worship the Lord thy God, and…[Read more]

Since Adam was not born of water, but was created, is that possible? Or is is fate sealed?

Dear Semjâzâ,As we get closer to the time of our Lord's return, science is getting better and better. And it has caused quite a ripple in the scientific community because many are beginning to doubt less. To doubt God less. Many have started to go to the bible for help with their scientific studies to uncover God's mysteries.Anyway, you claim t…[Read more]

Brother, reread what I wrote. What it says is a man must be reborn in spirit to enter into the kingdom of Heaven. As you know, because of original sin, all mankind are born dead in spirit, and unless they are renewed, they can not enter the kingdom of God. For how can one be born again unless he is first born. Nicodemus thought the Lord was…[Read more]

In the beginning was the Word

Yet what is is that discerns the spirits of men, if not the word of God?

Very good point brother and absolutly true. Why is it when people read God's word, they forget about common sense. I believe God gave this to all of us and there is no doubt you have a good dose. God bless brother and keep looking up, cause he is coming soon.hicitc

What is the sense in having God's written word if no one is going to believe it. Here is the problem with using multiple translations. You are creating God in your own image. You can pick and choose what verse from what translation fits your situaltion. Sorry, but that sounds like a ploy by the enemy to lead men away from God. If you believe that…[Read more]
