Darrell dunn said:I read other peoples Books once in a while, but put their word in question as soon as I find a mistake.
And this man Rosenthal, Makes a mistake when he says that the flood happened on the day that Noah entered the ark,
Gen.7:4 & 7:10 Say that it was 7 days before it started raining.
My question again have you met satan face to face????????
God gives us 2 examples of salvation and being Spirit filled,
1. Is Israel crossing the Red sea, (salvation)
Then crossing the Jordan ( baptism in the Spirit)
2. Is Jesus dieing then being resurrected ( being Born again )
Then being filled with the Spirit ( Pentecost)
There is a time of commitment between the two.
God is a rewarder of them that diligently seek Him.Heb.11:6
He dose not give the spirit at the rebirth, as a baby in Christ.
And there is a lot of wrong teaching about thisw.
Darrell, no one is perfect. And even people far from perfect, may know something that we don't. We can't then, become an island unto ourselves. I suspect that Mr. Young, and Mr. Strong, both attended church somewhere, and most likely had far more understanding of scriptures than some of the pastors they sat under.
I don't think that was the only mistake that Rosenthal made, if indeed that was a mistake. However, he did make some good points in his book. No, I have never met Satan face to face. But even if I had, what would that prove? Why the question?
How do you know that Israel crossing the red sea, and then crossing the Jordan refers to salvation and then the baptism of the Spirit? Perhaps it was just them crossing, because it was necessary at that time. Why does this have to refer to anything? If we want an example of salvation and then baptism with the HS, we have two excellent examples in Acts 8 and Acts 19.
I really don't believe that Jesus was "born again." Can you find some scripture?
God does not give the Spirit at rebirth? Are you referring to the mighty baptism with the HS? And you are saying that God does not give this to new Christians? How long do you think they have to wait? Did you not read Acts 10, where perhaps only miliseconds separated salvation from the filling?
You are correct, there is MUCH wrong teaching about the baptism of the HS, as the second work of the HS. But this is the wrong thread for that.
