That is your opinion only. Some want to stand for what they believe in, just as you do. Should I call you a Truth Idolater because you will fight for what you believe in??

No, idolatry is as you already said, placing something before God or having something as a god other than the One True God. Please Daniel, stop sensationalizing and twisting things or putting words in my mouth. The subject is absolute truth vs subjective truth and how important it is for us

I believe you have really taken first prize with this post. YOU assume that it is the OTHER PERSONS pre-conceived notion of who God is. I am so happy that you are so spiritual that you can correct all of us underlings. We love you Dan!

This one is beyond me why he can't just admit that the term "Brother" as referecned had nothing to do with the Body of Christ. (I can assure you the Jews Simon was speaking to DID NOT consider themselves to be in the body of Christ. )

Is there a right way to baptize or is that subjective? And if there was a right way in scriptures and a specific practice the early church went with...how important is that truth? Can you be saved and not have a love or desire to know the truth and obey it?

Hi Prax,Truth is this important.Jesus is the word of truth.If a person believes in Jesus for salvation then he believes in the word of truth.Now if you believe in a perverted gospel or truth you are removed from God.Next we are saved by truth,so if you don't have truth,how much salvation do you lose ?
2 Thes.2:13: But we are bound to give thanks alway to God for you, brethren beloved of the Lord, because God hath from the beginning chosen you to salvation through sanctification of the Spirit and belief of the truth.We are saved by sanctification of the Spirit and belief of the truth. We are saved by the truth,Not a perverted gospel and lies like alot of people are preaching
The Importance of knowing ALL truth and receiving ALL truth,NO perversion.John17:17. Sanctify them through thy truth: thy word is truth. 18. As thou hast sent me into the world, even so have I also sent them into the world. 19. And for their sakes I sanctify myself, that they also might be sanctified through the truth.
(NOTE CONTINUE) John8:31. Then said Jesus to those Jews which believed on him, If ye continue in my word, then are ye my disciples indeed;32. And ye shall know the truth (word) , and the truth shall make you free.
(NOTE THEY ARE REMOVED FROM GOD) Gal.001:006 I marvel that ye are so soon removed from him that called you into the grace of Christ unto another gospel: (perverted word) 001:007Which is not another; but there be some that trouble you, and would pervert the gospel of Christ.
(NOTE DESTROYED) Hosea004:006My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge: (word,truth) because thou hast rejected knowledge, (Word, Truth) I will also reject thee, that thou shalt be no priest to me:
(NOTE SAVED) 1Cor.015:001 Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel (truth) which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand; 015:002By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain.
(NOTE SAVED) 1 Tim.004:016Take heed unto thyself, and unto the doctrine; (teachings,word,Truth) continue in them: for in doing this thou shalt both save thyself, and them that hear thee.
Rom.016:017Now I beseech you, brethren, mark them which cause divisions and offences contrary to the doctrine (teachings,word,Truth) which ye have learned; and avoid them.
016:018For they that are such serve not our Lord Jesus Christ, but their own belly; and by good words and fair speeches deceive the hearts of the simple.
1 Tim.001:003As I besought thee to abide still at Ephesus, when I went into Macedonia, that thou mightest charge some that they teach no other doctrine (word,Truth)
2 John001:009Whosoever transgresseth, and abideth not in the doctrine (teachings,truth,Word) of Christ, hath not God.He that abideth in the doctrine (teaching,truth,Word) of Christ, he hath both the Father and the Son.
001:010If there come any unto you, and bring not this doctrine,(teaching,truth,Word) receive him not into your house, neither bid him God speed: 001:011For he that biddeth him God speed is partaker of his evil deeds.
1 Peter001:022Seeing ye have purified your souls in obeying the truth (word) through the Spirit unto unfeigned love of the brethren, see that ye love one another with a pure heart fervently: 001:023Being born again, not of corruptible seed (word) , but of incorruptible, by the word of God, which liveth and abideth for ever.
1 John003:009Whosoever is born of God doth not commit sin; for his seed (Word) remaineth in him: and he cannot sin, because he is born of God.
Eph.005:025Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the church, and gave himself for it; 005:026That he might sanctify and cleanse it with the washing of water by the word,
005:027That he might present it to himself a glorious church, not having spot, or wrinkle, or any such thing; but that it should be holy and without blemish.
1 John002:005But whoso keepeth his word, in him verily is the love of God perfected (full grown) : hereby know we that we are in him
1 John004:007Beloved, let us love one another: for love is of God; and every one that loveth is born of God (Word,Truth), and knoweth God. 004:008He that loveth not knoweth not God; for God is love.
1 John005:001 Whosoever believeth that Jesus is the Christ is born of God: and every one that loveth him that begat loveth him also that is begotten of him.005:002By this we know that we love the children of God, when we love God, and keep his commandments.
1 John005:018We know that whosoever is born of God (word,Truth) sinneth not; but he that is begotten of God keepeth himself, and that wicked one toucheth him not.
Gal.004:019My little children, of whom I travail in birth again until Christ be formed in you, (by the truth,Word)
John6:48. I am that bread (word ,Truth) of life.49. Your fathers did eat manna in the wilderness, and are dead.50. This is the bread (word,Truth) which cometh down from heaven, that a man may eat thereof, and not die.
53. Then Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Except ye eat the flesh (word) of the Son of man, and drink his blood (Spirit), ye have no life in you
(Them that don't sin) 1 Cor. 02:006Howbeit we speak wisdom among them that are perfect: yet not the wisdom of this world, nor of the princes of this world, that come to nought:
2 Cor.4:004:003But if our gospel be hid, it is hid to them that are lost: 004:004In whom the god of this world hath blinded the minds of them which believe not, lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine unto them
