As the folks who believed what was being preached lost their association with all that was beforehand Jewish, the believers were effectively converted to what would be known later as Christianity. And they suffered mightily for their choice to be one with Christ in His body. Not the physical...

It seems that I am the one trying to get you to obey Peter and Paul It does if you want the cleansing blood applied to you. It does if you wan to be planted in His burial so you can also be raised with Him to walk in newness of life. It is written..."Therefore we are buried with him by baptism...

It is when the context is conversion, forgiveness of sins, and obedience to the words of Peter in Acts 2:38 or Ananias/Luke in Acts 22:16. Yes there is. The church has not found anything but the blood of Christ that can forgive past sins. That blood is applied to us when we are on the cross in...

Welcome to the site. Though misnamed, it is still open to bible discussion. Just don't get distracted by the hijackers. What's your pleasure?

It is the believing Israel, and every other man or woman baptized INTO Jesus Christ.. You never stop doing that. I quote..."The body of Christ is not Israel". Not at all. Besides the history of God and His promises/prophesies coming to fruition, there are the promises yet to come. Believers...

It depends entirely on the context. I'm sorry that you have forsaken the means of remission of sins, and the way to kill the old man, bury him, and be raised with Christ to walk in newness of life. To kill the flesh and walk in the Spirit instead. That verse refers indeed to the baptism of the...

As you have chosen to alienate yourself from anything Israeli, your response was expected. I am happy that my name is in the bible so I can know all of it "applies to me". Even if Gentiles are only mentioned in passing, or with three complete chapters like in Revelations, you cannot divide the...

Were those uses of the word "baptized" done in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of past sins? No. The word "baptize" can be used in multiple contexts, but the only one by which our past sins can be washed away is with water, and in the name of Jesus Christ. Thank be to God.

It is the actual position of the church by Christ Jesus (Eph 3:21). The catholics just kept that...with heavy modifications.

All the lies? Or just the ones you see as lies?

You would think by now that they would have invented a way to use ocean currents, or tidal currents, to generate electricity. Just turn a propeller, for crying out loud.

What else, besides water, would one be dipped in?

Why don't you think Revelations is for believers in Christ? It sure started off addressed to Turkish churches.

So they are just trying to kill their own people. Got ya'.

No big deal. If anything, it was another cause of death NOT related to the covid virus. It was a reaction to the vaccine, not the virus. I have seen nothing but improvements in both sickness' and deaths since the roll out of the vaccines. If natural immunity is measurable, why isn't it...

Thanks...and check your "informed" spelling, please.

God picks and chooses and we have no responsibilities? What a terrible doctrine. Who can have any hope that they are the ones God has picked? How could you tell that you were picked?

Thank you for your opinion.

I wonder why NATO, and the rest of the world, never anticipated the age of "atomic coercion"? I'll bet there is a "reply in kind" doctrine.

How does that apply to communist China?
