The name of the Father is God almighty, the Son is the Word OF God MADE flesh, and the Spirit is the character or Holiness Of God. There is only one God but these three expressions of HIMSELF constitute the complete Godhead. Just one God not three.

The "treasure" asked about in the thread are simply the good deeds for the kingdom of God and the Glory of His name. The treasure of the world are the riches and pleasures of this world, which are temporary, and lost at death. Therefore the treasure one embraces, reveals where their heart really is.

Was Jesus a Baptist. Why are you? A Pentecostal, Mormon, JW, United, Four Square, E Free, etc., etc., Then why are you? There is only One Church, the body of Christ. I attend an assembly of evangelicals, but I don't swallow every wind of doctrine that is preached. I am careful that what I hear...

There are a number of baptisms: go to your concordance and read them. Baptisms and the understanding of their functions is BASIC and FOUNDATIONAL. Water baptism is the public confession of faith before witnesses of the reality of what has ALREADY happened. Read Hebrews 5: verses 11 to 14. and...

Under the New Covenant, everyone is deemed a sinner AND have come short of the glory of God, Romans 3: 23. So, no one can save themselves by having done good things, or a good person of their own making, they fall far short of the mark for God's standard for perfection. All the scripture is...

What is the meaning?

Ephesians 4: 4, 5. "There is one body, and one Spirit, even as you are called in one hope of your calling". "ONE Lord, ONE faith, ONE baptism". The theme is of salvation, and the baptism is the baptism into the body of Christ, by the Holy Spirit. This is the saving baptism spoken of in Mark 16...

Many baptisms but only one that saves.

Time and maturity works for babies.

Self control, when practised is : not my will, not my way, but yours Lord. Man, we as Christians start out as babes in Christ, and grow slowly over time through obedience to righteousness. An example can be found in 1 Cor. 3: 1-3. but if you do not read it, then you won't understand the concept...

I should think "unforgiveable" is another word, but saying the same thing as unpardonable. In other words, there is no forgiveness for committing it. Read the wording in Matthew 12: 31,32. or Mark 3: 28-30, with verse thirty, giving an example. It is not unbelief, Jesus, or God the Father, but...

You are mixing salvation with the nine fruits of the Spirit. As I said ,one starts at the bottom of the list (self control), and THEN moves upward in maturity, as each fruit gains residence through obedience. The fruits of the Spirit are not automatic, but bestowed. See KJV for proper sequence.

The word Father, represents his WILL, Jesus is the WORD, (made flesh) and the character of God is his SPIRIT (of Holiness). All contained in ONE.

Another name for love is righteousness. God IS love, meaning righteous or Holy. Love, or righteousness then is the doing, or the being, of that which is honorable. The fruits of the Spirit are earned, and not bestowed without effort and obedience. The KJV lists them properly and the "start...

What was the ultimate purpose of Christ coming to Earth? His purpose was to fulfill the scriptures and satisfy the wrath of God for humanities sins. The DEVIL tried to stop the crucifixion, and thus make the word of God void, and the death of Christ and his resurrection which would follow later...

"If any man be in Christ he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold all things are become new". Luke 5: 38 is speaking about a new Nature that has to be imparted at conversion, that agree with the things of God before one can know them. Verse 39 is saying the old life to the lost...

You need to do a word study on LOVE, for love is the doing of what is RIGHT to DO.. The Bible says God is love, meaning does always that which is right making his person of righteousness. Charity on the other hand are the virtues that produce the ACTIONS of love. 1Cor. 13 and verse 3 show love...

If you find error in what the Bible, ( not me) is saying, then take your plea to God, for understanding. Not one of you have addressed the scripture verses for personal comment, but are using language and reasoning of personal beliefs.

The "modern" versions only quote Romans 8: 1 as "having no condemnation to those in Christ Jesus", but that is just half the verse. the other half is conditional, as verse 4 in the same chapter concludes. James is saying in essence the same thing, that faith, without obedience to the word, is a...
