Ephesians 4:5 ONE Lord, ONE faith, ONE baptism,
Is it water baptism, or Spirit baptism.
Water baptism is just the shadow of the TRUE BAPTISM.
One makes you wet, the other makes you clean.
didn't learn much, then when I became interested the first question I ask the pastor was where did methodism
come from he said John Wesley ha d a method of teaching the bible in England. My point being when it comes to Gods
Word my position got to the point of what is Christianity not all the man made theological pillars of thought. The reason I
say this is men of equal intelligence and beliefs will have entirely different ideas on scripture, I just wanted to know what
works or doesn't then Let Go and Ler God.
Luke 20:35 But they which shall be accounted worthy to obtain that world, and the resurrection of the dead (we are dead in our trespasses, sinful flesh) ....
Luke 20:36 Neither can they die anymore (they died the first death, their life for the life of Christ), for they are equal unto the angel; and are the children of God, being the children of the resurrection.
1 Corinthians 15:38 But God giveth it (the SEED) a body as it has pleased him, and to every SEED his (CHRIST'S) own body.
The chosen are called to be priest, under their High Priest, Christ, in the kingdom on earth, when all other flesh has been resurrected, to judgement.
Jeremiah 51:19-23
Isaiah 65:12-17
Isaiah 66:18-24
The above scriptures, and others not listed, is the white throne judgement.
God bless.
As for the context in which "causeth" is used, I interpret it differently. First, we know we are unredeemable if we take the mark, and the believers and followers of The Way are written in the Book of Life, so surely The Most High would not force death upon those who are His or those with an option to be. Secondly, "causeth" doesn't necessarily mean "by force"; I see the cause as by deception. And when we look at it thru that lense, it lines up. This plandemic is built on a mountain of lies.
In order to understand scripture we must first understand that Christianity is a product of the Roman Catholic Church and the RCC a product of the paganism of the Roman Empire and that Rome is Edom and is Edom is Esau. Romans 9:13 tells us, As it is written, Jacob have I loved, but Esau have I hated.
Lastly, we must know who the true Children of Israel are. Revelation 2:9 and 3:9 both mention those who say they are Jews but are of the synagogue of Satan. Without this truth, we are not able to accurately interpret the scriptures. Interestingly enough, the very people who are downtrodden and seen as worthless are the "apple of his eye", aka, the so-called African-American and other so-called Black people scattered across the four corners of the earth by way of captivity. The rabbit hole goes leagues deep.
Thanks for your reply. Sorry for such a late reply.
You mentioned John 3:5. Romans 6:1-6. Galatians 3:26-27. and Acts 2:38. The only verse of the 4 mentioned that has anything to do with water baptism is Acts 2:38. and you apply it wrong when you use it as proof of an requirement for salvation. Peter is talking to Jews who had the word of God who had a God given religion, who knew the prophesies concerning a messiah. But they trusted in the Law that couldn't regenerate a soul.
"The law was their schoolmaster" Galatians 3:24. They are to turn around and come Gods way. John the Baptist was the forerunner for this message preaching the baptism of repentance "TO THE JEWS".
The old covenant they offered up sacrifices that couldn't save but pointed to the Lamb of God.
Here they're asked to repent and be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins. Water Baptism would be the evidence that "THEY" had repented, That they had come to Christ and put their trust in Him! Rather than bring a sacrifice to be offered.
As the sacrifices was a "foreshadowing' of Christ, Water baptism "Demonstrates" the Death and resurrection, In that demonstration THERE'S NO QUIKENING INVOLVED HERE! Only when we believed, Christ died We died!
That brings us to these other verses you mentioned. Galatians 3:26-28. and Romans 6:1-6. Have you noticed the phrase "BAPTIZED INTO" in Romans and Galatians? This speaks of the work of the Holyspirit to those who "TRULY" believed! they have been put into the body of believers.
After this occurs We should be barring fruit and have great concern there, Because that is something you cant produce on your own! This happens only "IF" you have been truly put in Christ. IDENTIFIED with his Death and resurrection. "The Baptism of the Holyspirit". you inherit the promise of Abraham. Galatians 3:18-29.
That is the context of the verses you have given.
These verses describes the work of the cross and true profession.
God bless.
Romans 10: 9+10 It says if thou shalt confess with thy mouth[your part] the Lord Jesus and shalt believe in thine
Heart [inner most part of your being] that God hath raised him from the dead thou shalt be saved[ sozo=to make or
keep sound or safe] Gods Job. Then change your life to what the word of God says to do, and trust me God will do the
rest His Job. Only a suggestion find a fellowship of believers or church and I like to start in the church Epistles
addressed to the body of Christ in our day and time then the Gospels then old testament. That being said its all Gods
promises to us who believe. God Bless
Sorry, don't mean to be oppositional, just voicing my concern, especially that there is a large group of people reading on here who may not post their ideas and perhaps being very new to faith. I am concerned for them.
That said, we are all free on this site to express our viewpoints regardless of whether anyone agrees or not. It just should be noted that anything said on this site is opinion or speculation, not inspired by God as the Scriptures are, so we need to have discerning minds and hearts like the Bereans.
God bless you always.
The first and death death REPRESENTS SOMETHING.
Since there is a second death, there has to also be a first death.
The chosen take part in the first death ( John 12:25) while they still have breath in their nostrils.
In Revelation 9:18 The third are killed (they die for Christ's life as Christ died to give you his life) by fire and brimstone. IN CHRIST (also Revelation 8)
Hebrews 12:29 For our God is a consuming fire.
Ezekiel 5:2-4 This is the same third described in Revelation 9:18 and Zechariah 13:9
Revelation 13:10 He that leadeth into captivity shall go into captivity, He that killeth (teaches truth) with the sword (the word) must also be killed with the sword (the word).
You are in the lake of fire, being purified and destroyed at the same time.
God Bless You!
Such a good, good God.
The writings of Paul have helped my so many times over the years. I am glad God had Paul write so much!
sheol unseen state, hades unseen world, gehenna valley of hinnom the fire that never goes out and to send to tartarus.
There are many words translated to english that have different understanding in the original texts. That being satd the translators still did a phenomenal piece of work!
I think it is becoming more common as the rebelliousness of our younger generation seems to be increasing. I could see the difference over the years as a teacher of Kindergarten. As time went by, more and more kiddos came into the school system with increased and more amplified behavior problems. So sad to encounter. I just hope that I was able to touch them with the love of Christ the year I had them in my class.
While Peter was arguably the most impulsively outspoken disciple and unofficially considered a leader among the disciples, The LORD expressed this verse in such a way as to distinguish Peter from the Church's True and Actual HEAD, namely, LORD JESUS CHRIST HIMSELF.
The proper name Peter translates from the Greek proper noun (transliterated "Petros"; pronounced "PET-ros"), meaning a stone or a small rock. Compare The LORD addressing Simon (Peter) as recorded in John 1:42: "When JESUS beheld him (Simon Peter), HE said, Thou art Simon the son of Jona: thou shalt be called Cephas {the Greek rendering of the Aramaic}, which is by interpretation, A stone {Grk. noun "petros"}." From that point on, Simon (the Greek rendering of the Hebrew proper name Simeon) was commonly addressed by the surname Peter (a stone or small rock).
By great contrast, when The LORD proclaimed, "upon This ROCK I will build MY Church", HE identified HIMSELF as the Church's ROCK. Here, the word "ROCK" translates from the Greek noun root (transliterated "petra"; pronounced "PET-ra"), meaning a rock of immense and formidable size which covers a massive geographical footprint (cp. Mt. 7:25-25; 27:60; Mk. 15:46; Lu. 6:48; 8:6 & 13). The reader may think of the Rock of Gibraltar in contrast to a pebble.
Additionally, "PETRA" never refers to Peter, but always identifies LORD JESUS CHRIST (cp. Rom. 9:33; 1Cor. 10:4; 1Pet. 2:8).
Thanks for your well written response.
I'm in agreement with you in that we are dependent on Jesus for Salvation. He will be our Judge.
Where I believe we have a difference in opinion, is after we have been Born Again, God still gives us a free will to do good or bad. Herein lies the the problem. If we are not fearful, as Paul states, we can slip back into our sinful worldly ways and based on much scripture, I believe that we can actually lose our salvation - because I believe we do not receive it until our final judgement.
Here is Jesus telling us what he will be expecting from us to receive our salvation and enter into the City.
Revelation 22:12-14
I do agree with you that God will work in us Through his Holy Spirit, but since we still have a free will, and the devil will continue to try his best to tempt us, (as the devil tempted Jesus) we will need to continue to strive, to become obedient, and work out our salvation as Paul stated.
In other words, we should work toward our own salvation with fear and trembling, as Paul described. This mindset can only help to humble us and hopefully keep us on track! I really think that Paul meant what he said regarding this recommendation to us. (The Church)
God Bless.
and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth or truly by the spirit. That was the first display of
Gods spirit working on the day of pentecost birthday of the age of Grace. Some say special gift some say doesn't exist anymore some say not needed. 1 Corinthians 12 : Paul went from gift to in verse 7 to manifestation of the gift, it is a great benefit to the believer spiritually it is personal prayer between you and father not to be done out loud or out
of order because all things of God are done decent and in order This is not to say that believers who don't speak in tongues don't believe or love God, that is biblically not sound. My bible says confess Romans 10:9+10 and believe in your heart and act on Gods Word. My understanding
