    Bible Study The New Testament Begins in Acts Not Matthew

    The New Testament Begins in Acts Not Matthew When you read the Gospels in the Bible, such as Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John, do they sometimes seem to contradict other parts of the New Testament Scripture? For example, in Matthew 6:15, Jesus said, “If you refuse to forgive others, your Father...

    Understanding the Holy Spirit Baptism

    Hi Doug. There really no point in this discussion if you're not going to recognize the historic context. I'll leave you with this. "Being filled with the spirit must be distinguished from being baptized with the spirit. The apostle Paul carefully defines the baptism with the spirit as that act...

    So…about gang stalking…

    Hey C I always tell myself. If it gets too bad financially, I'll hop the fence down south and come back with a new identity. "Gringo Suave." :sohappy And then collect all my free benefits. Probably would be better benefits than what I'm going to get. Dave

    The gift of healing

    Just wanted to add another problem that I see with this idea about a "pure faith" that the faith healers require. That would mean that children who are incapable of coming to a saving faith are either all disqualified, or, that qualification doesn't apply and all are qualified. If the latter...

    The gift of healing

    Hey C Amen. We all have a right to call out to God in prayer for these things. And sometimes He answers it. Mostly through providence (non miraculous means), and sometimes even by a miracle. But ultimately, it's only temporary. The healing in the atonement happens after we die. Imagine having...

    Understanding the Holy Spirit Baptism

    Hi Doug Exactly, and that Gift, that Promise is the Holy Spirit and is what makes us "in Christ" and is saves us. Remember, you're still in the OT dispensation. All four Gospels are OT up until Jesus' death, resurrection and ascension (See Hebrews 9:16-28). It's all in the link that I...

    So…about gang stalking…

    Hey C Fascism is a liberal ideology. Not many people stop to ask what part of less taxes, smaller government, and more personal responsibility, when taken to the extreme, becomes fascism? It doesn't. It becomes freedom. :thumbsup2 Dave

    Understanding the Holy Spirit Baptism

    Hi Doug When you are baptized with the Holy Spirit, you are complete in Him and lacking nothing. Colossians 2: 8-12. Doug, all the scripture that you used saying "upon" is speaking of the Baptism of the Holy Spirit. The promise of the Father is the Holy Spirit, the agent of that baptism...

    So…about gang stalking…

    Hey C That might be the plan for all Christians in this country. Putting us all in institutions for disagreeing with the "tolerant ones". :smlB Dave

    The gift of healing

    Hi Hawk I didn't see a point in it. Also, it's unverifiable. Muslims and Hindus make the same claims. They have all the same experiences and feel just a strongly about them as you do. All that does is validify them in their false religions. Nothing gained. But much can be lost. This is why...

    So…about gang stalking…

    C, if you're still here. I know that you're on an island right now, and if you really get into it, you think that people will think you're crazy. Hence your choice of forum. :Agsm The details don't matter anyways. It's called the cost of Discipleship. We are called to be partakers in Christs...

    The gift of healing

    Hawk Your argumentation is a bit of a straw man. I've been meaning to say it, but was hoping it would stop from both of you before I had to. When someone is making the claims that they are, all Christians have a right and are encouraged, expected, and obligated to test it to Scripture by...

    The gift of healing

    Hi Hawk. I did post scripture with the word 'sign' speaking of specific gifts. Quite a few actually. You'll have to refer to my previous posts. And as I stated already in the OP, the Apostles were listed as part of the Church in that day also (1 Cor. 12 below). There are no longer apostles...

    Unity, the other side of the coin.

    "In a time like this of tolerance, listen, false teaching will always cry intolerance. It will always say you are being divisive, you are being unloving, you are being ungracious, because it can only survive when it doesn't get scrutinized. So it cries against any intolerance. It cries against...

    So…about gang stalking…

    Hey C Evil is not just individual, but often times it can also be collective. When you are a light to the world, the world will want to put that light out. Sometimes a weekly church service can be just as important to recharge for the week ahead as it is for all the other reasons. Are you going...

    The gift of healing

    Hi for his glory. Everything that I've been saying is written right there in the passage that you provided. You stopped at verse nineteen, I went to verse twenty. It's all there, everything. Look at the parts in bold. Mark 17-20 And these signs will follow those who believe: In My name they...

    The gift of healing

    For His Glory Hey. :) Notice it doesn't say some, or the ones with enough faith. Aside from the fact that there is serious questions as to whether that part of the book of Mark was even part of the original text or added later. I'll roll with it, ok? :thumb Here's an example. Act 3:6-8 Then...

    Relativism

    Hi Carry I think the best way to understand relativism is that it's just a modern day term for idolatry. It's a lie that people want to believe so badly that they will even suppress the truth in unrighteousness and heap up for themselves false teachers who tell them what their itching ears want...

    The gift of healing

    Hi For His Glory Can you give us a name? We can then tell everyone on this forum who is sick to fly to this persons town and get healed, right? I've given examples in the OP. By God, through human agency. That's what the Biblical gift of healing is. I've never seen one person who today who...
