Or what now...then you read Acts 2:38. Go re read it Ron. You are the one pulling scripture out of its context to try and prove a point. It doesn't work your way if you read the whole chapter. Also if you tend to believe the book then read the whole thing then you will really see what is done there. You must read it with an open mind cause otherwise you only will see it through the OP glasses. |
Scripture doesn't contradict itself!
If I want to read it your way, I will have to throw out half the NT!
Kinda like Preterism, it raises more questions than it answers!

Wow look at just a few of the times Jesus equated belief to eternal life.
John 3:36
He that believeth on the Son hath everlasting life: and he that believeth not the Son shall not see life; but the wrath of God abideth on him.
John 5:24
Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that heareth my word, and believeth on him that sent me, hath everlasting life, and shall not come into condemnation; but is passed from death unto life.
John 6:40
And this is the will of him that sent me, that every one which seeth the Son, and believeth on him, may have everlasting life: and I will raise him up at the last day.
John 6:47
Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me hath everlasting life.
John 11:26
And whosoever liveth and believeth in me shall never die. Believest thou this?

Re: Apostolic Litumus Test: Do you affirm - Yes or
Guys, let me stop at this point and give y'all a heartfelt thank you. Being able to come here and partake of the back and forth with y'uns helps my day go by faster. I can easily go stir crazy these days because I work from home and it can get really slow at times. Anyway, just wanted to throw that in before we finish cuttin each other's heads off!

Unless you believe that Jesus was the Almighty God, Everlasting Father, in flesh.. you will die in your sins. The Lord is Jesus. All the fullness of the Godhead bodily dwelleth in Him. There is no Savior beside Him. When they saw Jesus, they saw the Father. The Name of Jehovah God is Jesus.
