The verse does not teach that. What it teaches is that the Spirit, when sent, brought to the apostles the ability to teach the Gospel and bring to remembrance for them all the things that transpired during His Earthly ministry. There is nothing about all believers, implied or specific, included in that verse.

Claiming it teaches words that aren't even there -- "comes in the name of the Lord" -- stretches Scripture far beyond reason as to actually flirt with blasphemy. Or have you forgotten warnings in both the Old Testament and the New about "adding to" these words?

You've proven yourself biblically illiterate with this post. But I'll give you an opportunity to prove what you say here exegetically. Go for it.
Here's a few verses about being given a new name from the Lord....
Isaiah 62:2
And the Gentiles shall see thy righteousness, and all kings thy glory: and thou shalt be called by a new name, which the mouth of the Lord shall name.

Mark 16:17
And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues;

Revelation 2:17
He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches; To him that overcometh will I give to eat of the hidden manna, and will give him a white stone, and in the stone a new name written, which no man knoweth saving he that receiveth it.

Revelation 3:12
Him that overcometh will I make a pillar in the temple of my God, and he shall go no more out: and I will write upon him the name of my God, and the name of the city of my God, which is new Jerusalem, which cometh down out of heaven from my God: and I will write upon him my new name.

Now many shall claim to come in "His name", but if they are not anointed of the Lord then they are under the curse, as written. So if someone claims they are "In Christ" which is only possible by Christ dwelling in them by the Holy Spirit, but they truly are not, then they are swearing falsely by "His name". :)

Firstly hon, I have been in Jesus Christ for 25 years, I met InSpirit a few years ago, I am no ones disciple

And I would never be yours either

But I would rather be his then yours, all you do is go around and bear false witness and rant and rave on others.
You bet...keep defending heresy, out of context scriptures and your own lies DH....no biggie to me and for the record....I need no disciples and anyone who would follow me I would point them to Christ, in context scriptures and truth....just because you and your boyfriend cannot understand the difference between constructive criticism and your perceived imagery is a tell all....

You do realize for a scripture to be parallel with another does not mean it has to match up word for word ???

Apostle Matthew and Apostle Paul are separate people and how they word things will not be exactly the same, which is why not even all the gospel books say and use exactly the same wording at times. Just like if me and you witnessed the same event and wrote about our letters of the event will not be the same in how they are worded.

So your debate is flawed by trying to even assume that, for both scriptures show that all truth will be given to all believers not just a few handful.

Just because you said not to say it does not mean you are not doing it, so it is not a false allegation.
You can tell me not to call you out on where you are wrong all you want, but if you state things in the way that we do not receive the same knowledge as that which was given to the original Apostles then what you say is false and you are denying what the Holy Spirit was sent to do in all of us believers, not just a certain few believers.

Trying to tell me I don't know what the bible says about the Holy Spirit is a farce....
It says He is our comforter, He guides us in all truth, He seals the obedient tell the day of redemption, He convicts believers when they sin, and He gives us the knowledge from God when we ask in prayer.

Keep your false accusations against me up as your next to last statement by you is making, as once again some of you need to learn the difference between the false accusing of satan and the rebuking allowed by the believer and stop confusing the two...


Totally irrelevant to what I said, and it doesn't even match up with what you claimed about John 14:26, so you talk in gibberish with no apparent connection from one post to the other.

Ken, now I'm not even sure English is your first language, because there is nothing in what I said that would give any basis to your erroneous leap to a conclusion about what I said, which is that "knowledge" and "remembrance" were relative to Christ's ministry to which the apostles were the only witnesses who wrote down their experiences with Him, including Paul. For you to come out with the garbage you posted here tells me you can't follow a train of thought, or you deliberately twist and shred it to create a straw man you can then knock down.

See? You just accused me of that which I very carefully warned you not to accuse me. To you, making the factual statement that we have no power, that only the Holy Spirit has power, is a denial of the Holy Spirit. That's deliberate denial of truth, or it is an intellectual incapability of following a line of thought, and I know you're not stupid. So cut the crap and stop making baseless accusations. Denying signs, wonders, and miracles in today's world is not denial of the Holy Spirit. It is denial that men are supernaturally empowered, and you have yet to find me a valid biblical passage that teaches otherwise. You've managed only to twist, obfuscate, deny, or just plain lie, and I've had it up to here with your circular arguments and pointless diatribes that are nothing more than clanging gongs and clashing cymbals.

I agree, but you don't really understand what it says about Him.

You don't even know what they say, and you make up explanations to fit your false doctrine.

I wonder, have you noticed? Your little buddy couldn't stand the heat, so he got out of the kitchen. Maybe its time for you to go, too.

You reversed it upon yourself by judging my motive, sincerity and you judgmental attitude....deny it if you choose...just more unconfessed sin on your part=LOST by your doctrine!

Wrong what I did was rebuke you for your bad treatment toward me and others.............Which is biblically sound and allowed

You come back with false allegations and accusations toward others, and name calling.......Which is no biblically sound and allowed by believers to act

The irony of this thread is that many here are ultimately going to fulfill the thread's title if they don't back away from their keyboards, get on their knees before God and repent of the poison of asps which is spewing forth from their tongues.

Failing to see Christ exalted on this thread, I'll unsubscribe while you people devour one another.

If you follow the thread from the beginning, as with several other threads, you will clearly see who the trouble makers are, as they do this all the time. They attack the poster with no intention of being sincere about the topic posted. Sorry you had to experience it again, but evidently it has become the norm.

You have proved to have alot of wisdom I agree with you.

And InSpritInTruth, just ignore them and in the future do what Jason does on his threads make rules on your threads

If there were only a forum here where verses of scripture could be posted and no one was allowed to add anything of themselves that would be my cup of tea

This too is a lie....I made a pure statement of truth in my opening salvo on this thread, you rejected the truth of it as you always do and before long began to make your own comments which you always do to everybody that disagrees with you.....and if you were sincere you would pay heed to ALL of the PEOPLE who disagree with you and ALL who respond in kind with the same arguments against the things you post.....You think you have the market cornered and what is funny is everyone that disagrees with YOU study on their OWN and ALL of us come up with the same conclusions.....the only people who agree with you is a small company of people who regularly twist scriptures so far out of context that they are nothing more than fanciful stories......!

Amen to Kenneth, he did this to me also before mocking my lack of scriptural knowledge when I'm new to Christianity. The man is full of puffed up prideful knowledge but bears no fruit!

I will also add....for claiming to be so biblical the above seems lacking in biblical Christianity......so..it is ok for you to do such things, but when one of us is sarcastic we are all wrong hey?
