No, in light of 2 Peter 1:3-4..."According as his divine power hath given unto us all things that pertain unto life and godliness, through the knowledge of him that hath called us to glory and virtue: 4 Whereby are given unto us exceeding great and precious promises: that by these ye might be...

Without its context your interpretation makes as much sense as God's command to kill the women and children. You and I both came to God as natural men. If not, what were we? I'm going to ask these questions again..."What happened to the old you when you were made new? How did it happen?"

It seems odd to me that we don't hear anything about Covid surges in Ukraine. Do you think maybe war is the best vaccine?

Were your interpretation correct, none would ever come to God. Fortunately though, some have seen and heard of the glory of God and in fear and love have sought after and found the Lord. God is good. As your interpretation fails to include Rom 3:19..."Now we know that what things soever the law...

I'm sure there is at least a short list of reasons, but all of them are based on the flesh. It would be non-Christian behavior. Who knows? LOL. Not at all. I recommend you get some rest and come back to this tomorrow if it is so important to you to find a reason to force anyone to have sex.

A husband that walks in the flesh is capable of every imaginable wickedness. It is far better to marry someone that walks in the Spirit. That brings to mind 1 Cor 7:39..."The wife is bound by the law as long as her husband liveth; but if her husband be dead, she is at liberty to be married to...

David was a man who walked in the flesh. (Walking in the Spirit wasn't widely available till the resurrection of Christ.) His decision was based on the flesh. The answer to your question, however, is "wrong", in either testament. If a husband resorts to forced sex, he too is walking in the...

You will need to supply at least one scriptural notation saying that. What happened to the old you when you were made new? How did it happen?

I wont find out till the fianl judgenet. It is written... Revelation 3:5 He that overcometh, the same shall be clothed in white raiment; and I will not blot out his name out of the book of life, but I will confess his name before my Father, and before his angels. Revelation 13:8 And all that...

There is no Acts 3:47. Acts 2:47 works though. Yes, they were. Where is it written that He stopped? The lame man in the temple was surely converted to Christianity, (though it was yet to be called that), not to mention the multitudes in Acts 5:14. Then the folks at Samaria, and the Ethiopian...

It never will, to those who will not turn from sin permanently. It never will, to those who love anything more than they love God.

Isn't there anything God can do to compel you to seek after Him? Miracles? Escapes from chasing armies? Escapes from prison? Parting oceans? Healings? Promises of eternal life? Raising some from the dead? Giving sight to the blind? Opening the ears of the deaf? Cleansing leprosy? Nothing??? Only...

They are self-explanatory. They heard the message and got baptized. What is there to explain?

Were that true, then Paul was a liar. It is written..."I thank God that I baptized none of you, but Crispus and Gaius; 15 Lest any should say that I had baptized in mine own name. 16 And I baptized also the household of Stephanas: besides, I know not whether I baptized any other." (1 Cor...

It is too bad Upton wouldn't stand up for his convictions. He may have found that there are plenty of other rightists who are not ego worshippers.

The thief did literally what we do by faith. He took the blame for his sins, and suffered and died with Christ for his sins. (1 Peter 4:1) He was buried with Christ and he was promised eternity with Jesus, just as we are. Exactly as Romans 6:3-6 says we are to do. Besides, we are water baptized...

Paul was "saved" because he went into the city? Personally, I will know I am saved when I hear that my name in in the book of life. Many had already been converted before Paul was converted. It was God's longsuffering for Paul's persecution of the church, (which qualified him to be the worst...

Simon of Samaria didn't first repent of sin, as commanded by Peter in Acts 2:38..."Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost." Sinners won't receive the gift of the...

OK, thanks for the heads-up.

The original apostles and disciples who sojourned with Jesus while He walked amongst us.. Not Acts 9:20?
