Quote (Nick Hassan @ Oct. 17 2006,00:25)Hi kenrch, Can you tell whom God has chosen to save?Nick,You don't believe your own teachings. If the teacher won't stand on his own teaching then that teacher must know that his teaching is wrong. Even the teacher doesn't believe it!

Quote (Nick Hassan @ Oct. 15 2006,23:07)hi kenrch, The world of whatifs is not a world of faith.2 Corinthians 1:20For as many as are the promises of God, in Him they are yes; therefore also through Him is our Amen to the glory of God through us.2 Corinthians 1:18But as God is faithful, our word to you is not yes and no.The world of whatifs is not…[Read more]

Quote (Nick Hassan @ Oct. 14 2006,21:00)Hi kenrch, Where have I taught as my own doctrine such things? Or have I rather shown what is written and you have made assumptions and drawn conclusions not based on what I have said?This is what you said in another thread about understanding water baptism.” Hi k4c,Are you saying that we don't need water…[Read more]

Did we receive the Spirit by works?  Did you?  Why can't you answer simple questions.Do you believe your doctrine that if you die before getting to water and now not being able to perform works that you are not saved?Gal 3:5  He therefore that supplieth to you the Spirit, and worketh miracles among you, doeth he it by the works of the law , or by…[Read more]

Are works important? Should we be baptized in water?OF COURSE!!!Rev 2:19 I know thy works, and thy love and faith and ministry and patience, and that thy last works are more than the first.

Quote (Nick Hassan @ Oct. 13 2006,22:21)Hi Kenrch, If that which you seek to know is not revealed so how can you expect someone as ignorant as me to give you an answer?What is revealed is that the way of Jesus into the millenial kingdom is not the only means God uses to call a people to Himself. Some are saved through the sheep and goat judgement…[Read more]

Seems as though you skipped a verse:Joh 3:5  Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except one be born of water and the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God! Joh 3:6  That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit. Why does Jesus speak of flesh right after born of water?  OOPS an…[Read more]

Quote (Nick Hassan @ Oct. 13 2006,08:33)Hi kenrch, You say”Where does scripture say to be born again of water?”Jn 3″ 3Jesus answered and said to him, “Truly, truly, I say to you, unless one is born again he cannot see the kingdom of God.” 4Nicodemus said to Him, “How can a man be born when he is old?

Quote (Nick Hassan @ Oct. 13 2006,02:21)Hi kenrch,Water baptism is not just washing the body as we do that every day with no hidden significance.It is a righteous demand of God that we obey and submit to, appealing to God in repentant faith for forgiveness and the washing of our inner man, the cup, to prepare that vessel to hold the Spirit of God…[Read more]
