But whose standards, IAM?

If one is not real level-headed, reading the above post almost sounds as if those who do not adhere haven't truly obeyed Acts 2:38, and may not be in love with God.

I assure you, we all have some, some Biblical, some extra-Biblical,and some even un-Biblical.

So which ones are you referencing?

Ah ... so your anger this morning ... was only partial ... lol.

If you wish to step up to me, first catch a real fish...don't come to with your tiny fishy....so saith Goliath.

Those that are extrabiblical ... and unbiblical as measures that define God and His people.

I was not angry at you, I just love the message.

Are the message and the extrabiblical standards forever intertwined? Do both seek to define God's salvation and holiness?

I am glad you agree with half of my original post though.

That means that I can see how we may be focusing too much on Acts 2:38. However, I am just now remembering a Pastor we sat under for a time who rarely preached Acts 2:38 and the interesting thing is no one recieved the HG in the year we were there. There does need to be a balance. Acts 2:38 is sooo important, it's what makes us the Bride of Christ, if we obey it.

PP can't you see the message and standards are one in the same to them. They are living proof standard first then doctrine!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This is not broadbrushing just an observation.
