42 | The possible hindrance agsinst being use | 2 Cor 8:12 | miller521 | 194401 | ||
Acts 1 and 2 we are told that 'you shall be baptized with the Holy Ghost not many days hence' Acts 2:4 tells us they were all filled with the Holy Ghost. Acts 4 shows us that it happened to them yet again ( which is whwere I ask if they had all the needed at the new birth where did this come from ) And Baptized BY the spirit, comes from 1 Cor 12:13 |

Let me try to put it another way. If the Spirit baptizes us INTO the Body of Christ, it is the Holy Spirit who is at work to place us into that Body. If I am baptized WITH the Holy Ghost, I am saying I am immersed with the Holy Ghost. If I baptize you with water, I would immerse you into the water.I would dunk you all the way under, because I am immersing you. Like a submarine, a submersible ( spelling sorry ) So the distinction is one of great importance, in Corinithians we are being told about the Spirits work in our life, how He is baptizing us into the Body of Christ. In Acts we are talking about ourselves being baptized into the Spirit. I'm not sure how else to phrase it. But I'll ask you again, if a believer has all of the Holy Ghost they need at the new birth, what is going on in Acts 4, were they not born again yet? |

Then what happend in Acts chapter 4? If they had all they needed, what happened there? | ||||||
45 | The possible hindrance agsinst being use | 2 Cor 8:12 | miller521 | 194434 | ||
We know that Peter is in Acts 4, we know that he and others are threatened, and we know that they leave and go back to their own company, their companions so to speak. And we know they pray for boldness, and we know that they were all filled with the Holy Ghost and began to speak the Word with boldness. We know Peter is in that group, the scripture is clear on that. So if he had everything he needed when he was Born again when Jesus ascended then why did he need to get filled in Acts 2:4 and why did he get filled againt in Acts chapter 4? And whats up with the posts not showing on the front page? |

I understand what you are trying to say. However the Scripture clearly says the house was shaken and they were all filled, its showing us events that are taking place. Its like me saying last night it rained and the basement was filled with water. I'm telling you that those events transpired at the same time. | ||||||
47 | Would Jesus be considered a prophet? | Eph 4:11 | miller521 | 194449 | ||
I don't understand what you are getting here, that he was not a prophet correct? | ||||||
48 | Would Jesus be considered a prophet? | Eph 4:11 | miller521 | 194622 | ||
I thought through it, and I'm wondering if people believe Jesus was a prophet, I've heard people say we do not need prophets because we already have the Word, but the Jews had the Word too, Jesus himself read from the scrolls in the temple. So giving that the argument is that we already have God's word so we need nothing further, then the entire idea that JEsus was a prophet is redundant. | ||||||
49 | Are there any true prophets/prophetss' t | Eph 4:11 | miller521 | 194623 | ||
Acts 13:1 shows us there were 'prophets and teachers' in the town of Antioch. That proves that there were prophets in the early church, and unless we are suppose to disregard the book of Acts and act differently than the early church, I'd safely say yes, they are relevant to today. | ||||||
50 | Are there any true prophets/prophetss' t | Eph 4:11 | miller521 | 194624 | ||
Yes I have. Are you saying because he talked in times past by his prophets that he never will again? | ||||||
51 | Would Jesus be considered a prophet? | Eph 4:11 | miller521 | 194629 | ||
Acts 13:1 Now there were in the church that was at Antioch certain prophets and teachers; as Barnabas, and Simeon that was called Niger, and Lucius of Cyrene, and Manaen, which had been brought up with Herod the tetrarch, and Saul. If Jesus was the last prophet, we have a big contradiction right here. |

52 | Are there any true prophets/prophetss' t | Eph 4:11 | miller521 | 194630 | ||
Just because he said they shall case, does not mean it has already ceased. If we say that they are ceased now , then lets read that whole scripture. Charity never faileth: but whether [there be] prophecies, they shall fail; whether [there be] tongues, they shall cease; whether [there be] knowledge, it shall vanish away. So you woul dhave to agree that knowledge is vanished away too? That would be an absurd thought, to think that there is no more knowledge in this world. But if we keep reading, we know that when that which is perfect is come, those things will vanish away. Jesus is perfect, and at the time the author wrote that, Jesus had not yet returned for his church, and he still hasn't today, so that which is perfect has still not come. |

Excellent, can you show me what scripture says what you just said? I really thought, some of what John wrote in Revelation was fortelling. | ||||||
55 | Are there any true prophets/prophetss' t | Eph 4:11 | miller521 | 194687 | ||
REad through John Chapter 1, it tells us that Jesus IS the Word of God. So no matter if the perfect is saying 'Word' or 'Christ' its the same thing. The perfected Word has always been, it was in the beginning. If we were to say Paul was saying when the perfect Word has come, well he would have to be in past tense, because the perfected Word already came from God, it existed in the beginning and was made manifested among men when he was born in the manger. | ||||||
56 | Are there any true prophets/prophetss' t | Eph 4:11 | miller521 | 194688 | ||
If you can't handle a discussion without getting so mad, then I understand you not wanting to talk about it. However what I said still stands, I read Hebrews chapter 1. God, who at sundry times and in divers manners spake in time past unto the fathers by the prophets. Good scripture, but I have no clue what you are trying to point out in that. Its clear what it says, we all know that he has talked by his Prophets, we have the books of the Prophets. And we know that he spoke to us by Jesus. Again, your point in this scripture I don't understand. God Bless. |

57 | God allowing things in our lives | 2 Tim 3:16 | miller521 | 193839 | ||
I understand that God can use trials and challenges in our life to make us stronger. However, I was saying that they do not originate with him. He doesn't just say Ok I need to teach this guy a lesson, since my Word isn't good enough, I'll give him cancer, he'll learn from that. |

58 | God allowing things in our lives | 2 Tim 3:16 | miller521 | 193881 | ||
Doc, what I am simply saying, is that God might use the challenge to help us grow, but John 10:10 says that the Thief came to kill steal and destroy, (talking of Satan) so unless Satan at times does God's work, then how do we call God a destroyer? Also, I have never met anyone who truely believes God does things such as gives cancer to teach a lesson, I've yet to ever meet anyone who says they believe that, and live it. Here is the proof. If you are to believe God sends cancer to teach a lesson, then who are you to ever go to a doctor, take any medicine, or allow doctors to help someone get 'cured' from something God says they should have. If you ever believe God at times sends sickness and harsh times on people, then you should be an outright advocate of shutting down hospitals, making sure nobody can get loans to keep their business afloat etc etc. But like I said, I've never seen anyone live what they preach when they claim God is responsible for hardships in their life. They all support doctors, even though by their theological idea, those doctors might be in direct opposition to God by curing someone that God wants sick. I'd never want to work against God, would you? |

59 | God allowing things in our lives | 2 Tim 3:16 | miller521 | 193883 | ||
Its also interesting to point out the conversation God has with Satan, he asks Satan if he has considered his servant Job, if you realize God knows the hearts and intentions of us all. He knew the answer to that, it wasn't God saying, Go mess with Job, it was God bringing to the forefront what he knew was in Satan's heart. God said it was in Satan's power, thats a statement of fact, not God saying, Go hurt my boy down there. | ||||||
60 | God allowing things in our lives | 2 Tim 3:16 | miller521 | 193884 | ||
That's a good scripture, it shows us that even when evil comes, God will make sure it turns out for our good. However, it doesn't even imply it comes from him. The Scriptures tell us that Every good and perfect gift come down from the Father, with whom there is no variableness neither shadow of turning. If I were to send nothing but good on one of my children, and evil on another... would be a lie to say that there is no variabless in how I treat them.... |
