NickIt is true of course that we are created in God's image which is exactly why we should act according to the Spirit that he gaves us AFTER Pentecost. The scriptures you quote are BEFORE Pentecost. Indeed if you don't have the Spirit then your thoughts CANNOT be as our Father. That is why you strive just as the Witnesses (which is why I…[Read more]

Quote (Nick Hassan @ June 16 2006,06:24)Hi kenrch, we cannot break any scripture including 1 Peter 3. Remember the attitude of the eunuch.”Look!There is water! What prevents me from being baptised?”and what Paul was told.” Why do you delay?”Nick, I believe that you should get baptized IF possible just as I believe you should receive the bread as…[Read more]

Quote (Nick Hassan @ June 16 2006,05:36)Hi kenrch, You sometimes do not make clear what you are saying and we cannot get your drift.Go back to water baptism Nick and finish this conversation.

Quote (Nick Hassan @ June 16 2006,05:28)Hi kenrch, We can compare scripture with scripture to find truth. It is a little more dicey to compare allegory with allegory and you might be out on a limb there.Not if you know the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit guides you to all truth. You know the word but not God. WOW! That's why the Holy Spirit is so…[Read more]

God is love Nick, not a machine. Your son loves you with everything and you know it. You would deny him entrance into your house?

Quote (Nick Hassan @ June 16 2006,05:19)Hi, You are welcome to the knowledge expert role. I just tell you what the bible says we must do.That's your answer?

Nick if you believed with everything you are that Jesus is the son of God and somehow were not able to be baptized with water then you wouldn't be saved?If that is the case then the catholics are right. Because with the spirit you believed in Christ. The water does nothing period. It is the spirit the heart of the person. Not the water!It is the…[Read more]

Quote (Nick Hassan @ June 16 2006,05:04)Hi, The catholics believe they receive Jesus body and blood when they go to communion. They think that partaking of that bread and wine and obedience to the church saves them as long as they live good lives. They save the leftover bread and wine and put it in a box they call the tabernacle and they say Jesus…[Read more]

Quote (Nick Hassan @ June 16 2006,04:41)Hi Kenrch, I see no scriptures to address in your post. Where are they so I can address them?The Catholics claim that Jesus means to litterly eat His Body and drink His Blood. In John chapter 6: 63 Jesus explains that he was speaking of spiritual things.But the catholics say they change the bread to the…[Read more]

Why can't you just address the scriptures I gave. If I'm supposed to learn from you then show where is the scripture wrong?

Quote (Nick Hassan @ June 16 2006,04:07)Hi Kenrch,We are not in “what if” mode. God has made the path to follow plain and if men would not muddy the water then more could see it. God knows who will respond. He provides the opportunities and the grace to respond. End of story.Why can't you just address the scriptures I gave. If I'm supposed to…[Read more]

Hello guys,I've always believed Acts 15 is speaking of Moses' law (Acts v. 5,29). Acts is speaking of blood ingested as food or for pagan reasons. The blood in Acts has nothing to do with intravenously adding blood inorder to save lives. I don't think they had intravenous anything back then. Did they? The Jehovah Witnesses say use common…[Read more]

Quote (Nick Hassan @ June 16 2006,03:54)Hi H, It is teaching in accord with the Word and with the example of the disciples of Christ as shown in Acts.Therein is obedience. The work is of God.My suggestion is that it is much more dangerous to deny the need for water baptism to those following Christ. Such matters taught may lead to the promised…[Read more]

I agree with Cubes! Lets settle down and get back to GOD! WHO IS LOVE AND HIS SON TAUGH TO TURN THE OTHER CHEEK! OK?

2Ti 4:3 For the time will come when they will not endure the sound doctrine; but, having itching ears, will heap to themselves teachers after their own lusts; 2Ti 4:4 and will turn away their ears from the truth, and turn aside unto fables.
