Just gone to that link but you have just quoted Acts but not the verses
It is helpful to actually post the verses and expand on them.
It is my style to both conceal knowledge (Proverbs 12:23) and to disperse it (Proverbs 15:7).

I do this by referencing scriptures often rather than quoting them.

The lazy will not be privy to the information that I am laying forth to everyone.

Since this was an unrelated topic I felt that I could answer.

I am refraining from answering any more as this has become something of an inquisition.

Praying for you guys, though.
I wouldn't say it's an inquisition but chewing the cud (as we say over here)

Look at this way.

You say something, I dont agree with it.
I say something you dont agree with.
We then discuss (and yes we need discuss and talk about it)

Discussion is not inquisition

Discussion is not inquisition
It is when you are judging the salvation of the person that you are discussing a topic with; or else trying them as though they are some kind of heretic.

I repent of saying that that was my last word.

Because the Lord just gave me one more thing to say, as I prayed for you guys.

And that is, that baptismal regeneration is preached in the following scripture.

Eze 36:25, Then will I sprinkle clean water upon you, and ye shall be clean: from all your filthiness, and from all your idols, will I cleanse you.
Eze 36:26, A new heart also will I give you, and a new spirit will I put within you: and I will take away the stony heart out of your flesh, and I will give you an heart of flesh.
Eze 36:27, And I will put my spirit within you, and cause you to walk in my statutes, and ye shall keep my judgments, and do them.
Yep

baptism of the HS. Not baptism in water

thw washing of water by the word.

That is baptism by the hand of God. Not the nad of some pastor in some water.

Lol

I am the one agreeing with him. Your the one who claims 2 baptisms.
No, I am saying that water baptism and the baptism of the Holy Ghost are inexplicably intertwined so that they are, in effect, one.

See the promise of Acts 2:38-39 for more on this.

Here is another passage that the Lord gave me for you as I was praying.

Mat 7:7, Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you:
Mat 7:8, For every one that asketh receiveth; and he that seeketh findeth; and to him that knocketh it shall be opened.
We did this.

and we found

we found that it is the baptism of God which saved us The baptism of man is a representation of that spiritual baptism.

You just denied the plain meaning of the verses that I just gave you.

Why should I even continue this conversation, if you are going to deny holy scripture?

We have no ability to judge ones salvation. Only their gospel..

No.

I accepted the plain reading of those passages.

You add the word baptism to them

The true gospel would be one that does not deny the reality of any of the scriptures. That is the gospel that I preach.
I dont deny any of them,I interpret them correctly
