Goodbye.

The scriptures speak for themselves as posted. Are there any apostles still around? Then that answers your question. Read the scriptures CAREFULLY.

First of all, the gifts are NOT active today, relevant, but not active. Who today is performing miracles, like feeding 5k with a few fish and a couple loaves of bread, or raising the dead, etc, ? Who is healing the sick and mamed, and why are hospitals around the world filled with such? Who is...

"if you have to be water baptized-----" It's not an option, and that's what the Lord said was necessary. So, call it what you will but it IS required and it's a matter of obedience rather than a so-called work. A work of what, the law, the flesh, neither. It's obedience and is 10000000%...

Go back one verse It means to each that has been given a miraculous gift is for the benefit of all. It doesn't mean everyone has been given a miraculous gift, but to those that have been so given one of the gifts, it was meant for the good of everyone because the message of their gift would be...

You are partially correct. Money allows you to purchase at will. But having the spirit dwelling in you does not even guarantee that spiritual gifts will be made available. The apostles prayed first that the Holy Ghost would fall on them, and then they laid their hands. And the analogy was to...

The analogy is perfect. There is the gift of the Spirit itself followed by the gifts of the Spirit which came afterwards. Likewise, money being the gift followed by the further gifts that money allows. Context has nothing to do with it; its comparative. And the gift of healing you mentioned. If...

If I said to you I will give you a gift but you must do something first before you can get it. You immediately start thinking, wow, wonder what I'm going to get? Will it be a car, or a TV, or boat, or ??? And what will I have to do? Then I tell you what the deal is and what the gift is The...

Really? Why would you have to "arise" and "be" anything at all? "Be" infers YOU must do something as well as does "arise", not the Holy Spirit. Surely the Holy Spirit can "wash" your sins while you're seated and without you having to "be" anything, right? You're illogical and do not understand...

The words of the bible contrary to yours Acts 22:16 16And now why tarriest thou? arise, and be baptized, and wash away thy sins, calling on the name of the Lord.

Same difference. I was being blunt

The Lord's words not mine below. Pretty clear what the Lord's instructions were to Ananias. Acts 9:11-12 11And the Lord said unto him, Arise, and go into the street which is called Straight, and inquire in the house of Judas for one called Saul, of Tarsus: for, behold, he prayeth, 12And hath...

You got my point I know what it says. Goodbye. Go argue with someone that's willing to waste their time with you.

I pointed out initially the difference in what the Lord said which only related to sight in verse 12 and what Ananias said which was different. The Lord said NOTHING about receiving the Holy Spirit, only the restoration of Saul/Paul's sight. That's what the scripture says and that's what...

I understand perfectly and do not need tongues which WAS a sign to unbelievers. Goodbye 👋 believe whatever you like

Goodbye 👋

That's why the scripture says you must have one who also interprets, or shut up! 1 cor 14:13-15 13Wherefore let him that speaketh in an unknown tongue pray that he may interpret. 14For if I pray in an unknown tongue, my spirit prayeth, but my understanding is unfruitful. 15What is it then? I...

1. Paul received his sight and was not filled with the Holy Spirit at that time. He only received his sight. 2. He was then baptized 3. He received the gift of the Holy Ghost upon being baptized as all do according to Acts 2:38. Read the scriptures again. Upon receiving his sight it says...

You are not reading the scripture correctly regarding Ananias and Paul. The Lord said that he may receive his sight in 9:12 not the Holy Spirit or Ghost. It was Ananias that made mention of the Holy Ghost NOT the Lord in verse 17. And after Ananias laid his hands on Paul the scripture says he...
