1 | Why not Baptize as Jesus said to? | Acts 19:5 | punkiedo | 107992 | ||
Firstly, I never said that the woman taking on the mans name was biblical. I was using a cultural example. Secondly, it says leave his family not change his name either so stop trying to prove something that is not there. THIRDLY, You still don't know who's follower you are because anyone can be a father any one can be a son and I know a lot of people FULL of the Holy Ghost, so you belong to titles not someone. (so let's not use that scripture again that one is WAY to easy to explain) For instance EXPLAIN why it says THE NAME THE NAME THE NAME THE NAME SINGULAR SINGULAR SINGULAR NOT PLURAL. (Got it now?) WHAT IS THE NAME??????? I have the name applied to me...FOURTHLY, now I want to apologize ahead if I seem a little rude or upset, as you slightly rubbed me the wrong way. I was taught to love this freedom and this country, and that just like salvation my freedom has come at a great price. Now you can insult me or my family but there are 2 things that you do not say anything against as I will defend it with every last breath. the first is My God who's name is Jesus. The second is my country. I feel like if you do not appreciate this country I am sure there will be one less generous willing to welcome you in. So please when trying to prove a point please do not criticize my country as I love this land. I believe everyone in my family if you cut us we would bleed red white and blue. Sooo on that note He said be baptised as I must if you just read back you will see my views on that. He had to be baptized as an example of what we should do. Further more, You know really you need to read the scripture above and the one below before you try to use it. AND I looked it up in the greek text btw and it is NOT plural it is SINGULAR. ONCE AGAIN BAPTISMO. SUBMERSE!!!!!! And my concordance takes it farther it says baptism according to the order of baptising to make FULLY WET. This is the NIV Heb 6:1 Therefore let us leave the elementary teachings about Christ and go on to maturity, not laying again the foundation of repentance from acts that lead to death, and of faith in God, Heb 6:2 instruction about baptisms, the laying on of hands, the resurrection of the dead, and eternal judgment. Heb 6:3 And God permitting, we will do so. KJV Heb 6:1 Therefore leaving the principles of the doctrine of Christ, let us go on unto perfection; not laying again the foundation of repentance from dead works, and of faith toward God, Heb 6:2 Of the doctrine of baptisms, and of laying on of hands, and of resurrection of the dead, and of eternal judgment. Heb 6:3 And this will we do, if God permit. |

2 | Why not Baptize as Jesus said to? | Acts 19:5 | Taleb | 108027 | ||
Punkiedo, please forgive me. I never intended to get your blood pressure up. My intention was ONLY to point out to you the error of your faulty conclusions. I agree with the others, who posted after your unnecessary reply. Like others who adhere to false doctrines, your “evidence” reveals many holes. One of many purposes of this forum to “plug such holes.” Without coming up for air you stated you checked my reference in Heb 6. But then you blatantly contradicted yourself. You stated:” I looked it up in the greek text btw and it is NOT plural it is SINGULAR”. Now I will cut and paste YOUR PROOF from the NIV. “…Heb 6:2 instruction about baptisms,” . And, you provided more proof by quoting KJV -” Heb 6:2 Of the doctrine of baptisms.” Please note the plural-making-letter “S” on baptisms from both of YOUR insufficient proofs of it being singular. Huh? You don’t read what is written, you read from a pre-supposed mentality, wrong as it is. My “proof”? I wrote this statement – “Too often, we "think" our way of life is God-ordained. That’s one reason why the good ol’ USA is so unwelcomed in the world.” With wild imagination you, in so many words, attempt to rob me of my patriotism. I wholeheartedly agree with your “I was taught to love this freedom and this country, and that just like salvation my freedom has come at a great price.” Perhaps you recognize that price because your own family paid what mine paid. Or perhaps you only know “about” the cost of freedom by watching John Wayne movies. As a WW2 war-orphan, I know first hand the expense of freedom. My infantry officer father in the US Army was killed in action in Germany shortly before the end of WW2. And, as your family, the survivors of mine love this land. because we were war-orphans, my brothers and I were exempt from military duty. As we became of age we joined, against my mother's wishes. So she had a MP son in the Army, a LT in the Marines, a radar tec in the Air Force, and a sailor (me) in the Navy. This is also part of the price that was paid for YOU. Please, re-read the only comment about this great land of ours and try again to tell me HOW I “criticized” this wonderful country. What prompted you to state, “I feel like if you do not appreciate this country I am sure there will be one less generous willing to welcome you in”? Your comment was not only unwarranted, it was uncalled for and most certainly without a smidgen of worthwhile merit, as was much of the rest of your comments. My original comment stands. It was tied to my comment giving reference to your faulty “evidence” about a woman taking her husband’s name as proof that we are to baptize in Jesus name only. The good ol’ USA too often DOES think that our ways ARE God’s ways, and this falsehood is as contrary to Scripture as insisting that baptism MUST be according to one’s minute understanding of God’s mighty word. I have seen firsthand the evidence in numerous countries. Teaching the rest of the world that “taken the man’s name in marriage” is ONE of many such wrongs the good ol’ USA attempts to pass on as ordained of God. Thank for proving my point about us attempting to force “our culture” on the rest of the world. You correctly stated, and I cut and paste what you wrote - “I was using a cultural example.” Blessings, Taleb P.S. Your statement: “FOURTHLY, now I want to apologize ahead if I seem a little rude or upset,” - I forgive you and accept the apology offered. Thanks. |
