I agree. While I believe my "forever home" is with Yahweh and Yeshua on the New Earth, I still have responsibilities on this old one. I need to take care of my family and those whom I can help along the way. To that end, I participate in the election process that is supposed to put people in...

I can appreciate the premise that your experience in a courtroom certainly weighs heavier than my ignorance. I would like to ask your opinion on these quotes from the news I've seen: Judge Merchan, who sparked controversy with instructions to the jury that they didn’t need to agree on all...

I think we would nearly all be shocked to discover how scripturally illiterate the preachers are. You can bet, though, that they all know what their seminaries told them to believe. We tend to think that seminaries know "the truth," Far from it. The teach what they are told to teach by the...

I see that the focus is on Acts 2:38. However, proper hermeneutics requires that scripture is interpreted through the rest of scripture. What about Titus and 1 Peter? The collection of evidence is expected to provide the proper interpretation. Tt 3:3–7 But when the goodness and loving...

So you take issue with scripture, too. OK.

OK, I got it. No matter what scripture says; you will believe what you want.

Brother Fred, while I understand how the scriptures are mistranslated to support the trinity, some proper exegesis can solve those issues. Colossians 1: 16-17 For by Him (Son) were all things created, that are in Heaven, and that are in earth, visible and invisible, whether they be thrones, or...

It is simple really. The water itself holds not magical or mystical properties. The submission to the purification ritual does. Purification through water has been the means of purification for thousands of years by the time of this writing. For people of Israel, no question would even arise...

Amniotic fluid is absolutely not part of scripture. Nobody walking the earth at that time has NOT been born in that fluid. Consider the purification in water. For thousands of years, water was the means of purification for the priests and people. They would never question water's part in...

Man has been done a disservice by translators in these verses. Yahweh, who alone is God, spoke in times past by prophets. Now, verse two says he spoke at the time of this writing by His Son. As for the rest of verse one, His Son is an heir of all things - indicating that His Son did not already...

And, once again, what do you do with the verses of scripture that was pointed out? I appears that you are simply ignoring them. None of those verses spoke of being baptizing people in the birth fluid of pregnant women.

But He that sitteth in Heavens told us that He alone is God.

So, the fact that all baptisms recorded in the New Testament were done incorrectly. Jesus had his disciples use the river Jordan. Philip baptized the Ethiopian eunuch in water. Have you seen the baptismal sites in video of Israel? I wonder why they had them. Perhaps, since the ritual cleansing...

That is a lesson that so many have learned lately. I really wish that I could believe that the voting system was "repaired" rather than "fixed."

OK, gotcha. What scripture says is not important. It is what you were taught to believe is "truth."

Unfortunately, the "popular" doctrine in evangelical circles says that water has nothing to do with baptism or being saved - despite bible verses saying differently.

Your response makes no sense to me. Is it a case where my statements were confusing?

I remain astounded at those who may claim that they "believe the Bible" and argue against it.

Two thoughts here: 1. So you are saying the scripture is not true. Ac 2:38 And Peter said to them, “Repent and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins, and you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit. changes...

No, that is not what I said. God does the work when we submit to water baptism. Since you do not believe in baptism, can you tell me why Jesus instructed his disciples to baptize the converts?
