1 | When were disciples born again? | John 3:11 | Bows44 | 156949 | ||
Hi BradK, In regards to your comment: Yes, you will find the references to a Baptism of the Holy Spirit in the Gospels and Acts! You would need to explain how Paul, who wrote the majority of NT Epistles (13) and deals extensively with DOCTRINE ( hence Romans, the theology of the NT), fail to mention or even suggest the need to be baptized again by "the Baptism of the Holy Spirit"? He teaches 1 Cor. 12:13 and Eph. 4:5 most certainly. But there is absolutely no mention in his writings of any second "Baptism of the Holy Spirit So you are saying that only the Pauline Epistles teach Doctrine? Also, I don't think it is my place to try to explain Paul's actions or lack of whatever the case may be. I don't know him personally and can't even begin to think I could read his mind or judge his motives. As to whether or not he teaches about this subject, I would have to research that to verify if it is true or not. Speaking the truth in love, Bows44 |

Hello Bows, Again, please don't hear what I'm not saying! I did not say that only the Pauline Epistles teach doctrine! However- and I will leave it said at this- we must be careful to understand the purpose, i.e. focus of each book of the Bible including Acts. If you think Acts is the doctrinal blueprint for the Church, then fine. I don't. Please do research what I've said. By all means, test what I said against the Word of God! I don't expect that you'd take my word for anything:-( However, please do hear this: I do not handle the Word of God deceitfully, carelessly, or take it lightly! I approach His precious Word with the utmost reverence! Additionally, I would not knowingly toss about a vain speculation pertaining to the Word without having some semblance of knowledge about which I spoke! It's been good chatting with you:-) Speaking the Truth in Love, BradK |
