    Is it possible to do what is the unpardonable sin today?

    The answer to what the unpardinable sin is can be found in Mark 3:30. The Jews claimed Jesus was in essence in league with the devil and had an unclean spirit thereby. Can this be done today? Can you be guilt of the same thing today? Does sin have an expiration date? Also, see the warning to...

    Why can’t i speak in tongues as a Christian

    The miraculous manifestation of the gifts as listed in 1 Cor 12:8-10 which included tongues, have either ceased of vanished away according to 1 Cor 13:8. All the gifts listed are no longer needed now as they were in the early church. Tongues were earthly tongues and were for a sign to...

    The theif on the cross misconceptions

    You do realize that the gift of the Holy Ghost happens consistent with baptism into Christ, right? Read Acts 2:38. 38Then 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. And...

    Peter NOT the 1st pope and the keys of the kingdom

    Matthew 16 analysis - Peter being the first so-called pope and provided with the keys of the kingdom MATTHEW 16:15-19 - Catholics erroneously use these verses, and primarily verse 19, as rationale and justification for claiming Peter was established thereby as the first pope. However, when you...

    The theif on the cross misconceptions

    It's not null and void and us a requirement and necessary element of salvation, no different than belief or faith, or confession, or repentance. All are required including baptism. That's what the totality of the scriptures say.

    The theif on the cross misconceptions

    1st is says "have sinned" inferring as I've stated that since must be committed. The passage clearly infers action. Also, see below scripture, and if children are somehow born sinners, which us nor possible, what about the Lord? He was an infant at one time, born into this world as are other...

    The theif on the cross misconceptions

    That's true other than Paul, but does that mean they weren't? Should you build belief and stake your soul on maybe, speculation, or unknowns, or should you rely on what's written?

    The theif on the cross misconceptions

    Baptism is a command and everything done on the flesh requires a work of some sort, but it's not a work of the flesh as condemned as in Galatians nor a work of the law. Too many scriptures to ignor that say it's required. Keep I'm mind also that you're baptized into Christ, baptized into his...

    The theif on the cross misconceptions

    Children are in no need of baptism since they have not sinned which must be committed. Nor can they believe, confess their belief, repent ( not capable nor have they any sin to repent of).

    The theif on the cross misconceptions

    He couldn't have been baptized into Christ, maybe John's baptism, but that's notvtge one that counts. You must be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ and that couldn't happen until he had died si you could be baptized into his death as other scriptures say.

    The theif on the cross misconceptions

    The thief on the cross misconceptions I continually encounter people trying to justify that baptism is not an absolute necessity for one's salvation by use (erroneously) of the thief on the cross as justification, as he was not baptized but yet saved by the Lord, which is true! BUT, the error...

    How Many Requirements Exist

    Since no one is without sin, Jesus is the only way by belief and faith, confession of belief, repentance, and baptism. That's the scriptural formula for salvation and the only way to heaven.

    Is The Whole of Christianity

    Christianity is not, nor should be divided. Division is condemned in the bible, but unfortunately, it is, with many false doctrines propagated as a result thereof.
