121 | Non-denominational theology? | John 3:16 | FTimA | 65021 | ||
In Acts 1:20 Peter quotes two passages from the book of Psalms, Psalm 69:25 "Let their dwelling place be desolate; Let no one live in their tents" and Psalm 109:8 "Let his days be few, And let another take his office" Apostolic succession is undisputed by whom? The language used in Acts 1:20 refers to the position, office, or charge of an Apostle. Laying on of hands is not how this position is obtained. Jesus personally chose the first twelve Apostles. Jesus also chose Paul. Matthias was selected with prayer and casting lots. It never says in the bible that other Apostles laid hands on him or anyone else to receive the position of Apostle. Matthias, being one who was with Jesus from the beginning (Acts 1:21), had already been baptized into Christ (yes this is an educated assumption), and he was numbered with the eleven, therefore received baptism of the Holy Ghost with the eleven on the day of Pentecost. Acts 18:14 says, "Now when the apostles which were at Jerusalem heard that Samaria had received the word of God, they sent unto them Peter and John: 15Who, when they were come down, prayed for them, that they might receive the Holy Ghost: 16(For as yet he was fallen upon none of them: only they were baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus.) 17Then laid they their hands on them, and they received the Holy Ghost. 18And when Simon saw that through laying on of the apostles’ hands the Holy Ghost was given, he offered them money, 19Saying, Give me also this power, that on whomsoever I lay hands, he may receive the Holy Ghost." The above passage clearly teaches that the Holy Ghost was received "through the laying on of the apostles' hands", vs.18, and Simon wanted to purchase this power saying, "that on whomsover I lay hands, he may receive the Holy Ghost". He was sharply rebuked for even thinking such a thing. Why would they have had to send for Peter and John, both apostles, if this is not true? Your reference to Paul and Timothy goes like this, 1 Timothy 4:6-16 "If thou put the brethren in remembrance of these things, thou shalt be a good minister of Jesus Christ, nourished up in the words of faith and of good doctrine, whereunto thou hast attained. 7But refuse profane and old wives’ fables, and exercise thyself rather unto godliness. 8For bodily exercise profiteth little: but godliness is profitable unto all things, having promise of the life that now is, and of that which is to come. 9This is a faithful saying and worthy of all acceptation. 10For therefore we both labour and suffer reproach, because we trust in the living God, who is the Saviour of all men, specially of those that believe. 11These things command and teach. 12Let no man despise thy youth; but be thou an example of the believers, in word, in conversation, in charity, in spirit, in faith, in purity. 13Till I come, give attendance to reading, to exhortation, to doctrine. 14Neglect not the gift that is in thee, which was given thee by prophecy, with the laying on of the hands of the presbytery. 15Meditate upon these things; give thyself wholly to them; that thy profiting may appear to all. 16Take heed unto thyself, and unto the doctrine; continue in them: for in doing this thou shalt both save thyself, and them that hear thee." Paul tells Timothy in vs 14, "Neglect not the gift that is in thee, which was given thee by prophecy, with the laying on of the hands of the presbytery." Timothy was not an Apostle, not an elder, but a preacher, a minister, or an evangelist (the last three being basicall the same thing). Paul tells him not to neglect the gift given him by the laying on of the hands of the presbytery. Comparing this with the Acts 18 passage, the "presbytery" would be one or more APOSTLE, but here is the crucial point! Paul states that he himself is the one that "imparted" the gift to Timothy. 2 Timothy 1:6 "Wherefore I put thee in remembrance that thou stir up the gift of God, which is in thee by the putting on of my hands." If my comments above are wrong please show me where? |

If this is true, show me the passage that proves it, please. I would rather read the word of my Father in heaven, which is truth, than a "Apostpolic pre-Nicean Church Father", who was not inspired of God to write whatever they wrote. I will save the link for study material. Thank you. |

124 | Non-denominational theology? | John 3:16 | FTimA | 65095 | ||
I am not sure I understand your meaning behind "combination of Scripture, which is not always absolutely clear on all points and the witness of the early history of the Church as written by the apostolic fathers" making it clear that the early Church had bishops, priests (presbuteri, elders) and deacons. The word presbuteros is the Greek word used whenever bishop, elder, shepherd, and overseer is used. The position of a bishop is the same as the rest. A deacon however is subordinate. Jesus is the head, then elders, deacons, then christians. Laying on of Hands - Does it always mean something was imparted or that baptism of the Holy Spirit occurred? 1. Acts 6:5 The statement found approval with the whole congregation; and they chose Stephen, a man full of faith and of the Holy Spirit, and Philip, Prochorus, Nicanor, Timon, Parmenas and Nicolas, a proselyte from Antioch. 6 And these they brought before the apostles; and after praying, they laid their hands on them. The passage above says of Stephen, "a man full of faith and of the Holy Spirit". Why would he need to be brought before the apostles if he was already full of the Holy Spirit (I personally believe that this phrase "full of the Holy Spirit" is synonomous with "full of faith", the Holy Spirit causes belief), if for no other reason than to receive a gift of the Holy Spirit. They certainly would not have had to be "ordained" to serve food would they (Acts 6:1)? 2. Acts 9:17 So Ananias departed and entered the house, and after laying his hands on him said, "Brother Saul, the Lord Jesus, who appeared to you on the road by which you were coming, has sent me so that you may regain your sight and be filled with the Holy Spirit." 18 And immediately there fell from his eyes something like scales, and he regained his sight, and he got up and was baptized; Acts 13:2 "...Set apart for Me Barnabas and Saul...they laid their hands on them, they sent them away. At what point in the passages above did Paul actually receive the Holy Spirit? Ananias says (vs 17) that the Lord sent Paul to him for that very purpose. The event in Acts 13:2, I believe, was a result of the love the brethren shared for Barnabas and Saul and the "laid their hands on them" would have been similar to a brotherly embrace. Our Lord Jesus appeared before Paul. He chose him for a specific purpose. Can we not assume that the Lord gave Ananias special dispensation in order to impart the Holy Spirit to Paul? Or can we assume that there were more people other than the original eleven, Matthias, and Paul who could impart baptism or gifts of the Holy Spirit to others? This would have some serious consequences. First, Acts 2 teaches that only the eleven and Matthias received baptism of the Holy. Second, although Cornelius and his household received baptism of the Holy Spirit, the bible does not mention him or any of his household imparting the Holy Spirit or any gift to anyone else. The purpose behind them receiving this was to prove that God does not show partiality and that salvation is available to all men, not just the Jews. Third, scripture specifically says that gifts of the Holy Spirit were imparted through and only through the Apostles (Acts 6:6, 8:18). The passage 1 Tim 5:22 presents a dilemma for me. Why would Paul say this to him if for no other reason than to be careful who he imparted gifts to? This I will have to study further. Matthew 16:18-20 proves nothing but the fact that Jesus is the Christ, and because he is, the church will be built upon him (not Peter). 1 Cor 3:11 For no man can lay a foundation other than the one which is laid, which is Jesus Christ. Matt 28:18 And Jesus came up and spoke to them, saying, "All authority has been given to Me in heaven and on earth. 19 "Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit, 20 teaching them to observe all that I commanded you; and lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age." John 20:19 So when it was evening on that day, the first day of the week, and when the doors were shut where the disciples were, for fear of the Jews, Jesus came and stood in their midst and *said to them, "Peace be with you." 20 And when He had said this, He showed them both His hands and His side. The disciples then rejoiced when they saw the Lord. 21 So Jesus said to them again, "Peace be with you; as the Father has sent Me, I also send you." 22 And when He had said this, He breathed on them and *said to them, "Receive the Holy Spirit. 23 "If you forgive the sins of any, their sins have been forgiven them; if you retain the sins of any, they have been retained." What did the disciples receive here in the passages of John? Only the power to forgive sins? I honestly don't know and must study this further.e disciples receive here in the passages of John?

God has done all He can for man. I would think the obligation lies within man. John 3:16 "For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish, but have eternal life. John 3:17 "For God did not send the Son into the world to judge the world, but that the world might be saved through Him. John 3:18 "He who believes in Him is not judged; he who does not believe has been judged already, because he has not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. John 3:19 "This is the judgment, that the Light has come into the world, and men loved the darkness rather than the Light, for their deeds were evil. John 3:20 "For everyone who does evil hates the Light, and does not come to the Light for fear that his deeds will be exposed. John 3:21 "But he who practices the truth comes to the Light, so that his deeds may be manifested as having been wrought in God." |

127 | who received the Holy Ghost @Pentacost? | Acts 2:4 | FTimA | 65233 | ||
Emmaus and bajackson39, Two verses that lend to a more definitive answer are Acts 1:26 And they drew lots for them, and the lot fell to Matthias; and he was added to the eleven apostles. Acts 2:14 But Peter, taking his stand with the eleven, Why did God choose to single out only twelve (Matthias...added to the eleven, Peter...with the eleven)out of over 120? My understanding is that only the twelve were baptized with the Holy Spirit. The promise of Jesus sending another comforter or helper was made during the course of the last supper. At this time Jesus was accompanied only by his twelve disciples. I believe I can support this with scripture but not at this time. The claim that anyone other than the twelve apostles being baptized with the Holy Spirit on the day of Pentecost is a misconception. |

Acts 1:1-5 is very explicit, at least in the NASB version, Acts 1:1 The first account I composed, Theophilus, about all that Jesus began to do and teach, 2 until the day when He was taken up to heaven, after He had by the Holy Spirit given orders to the apostles whom He had chosen. 3 To these He also presented Himself alive after His suffering, by many convincing proofs, appearing to them over a period of forty days and speaking of the things concerning the kingdom of God. 4 Gathering them together, He commanded them not to leave Jerusalem, but to wait for what the Father had promised, "Which," He said, "you heard of from Me; 5 for John baptized with water, but you will be baptized with the Holy Spirit not many days from now." Verse 2 clearly states "given orders to the apostles whom He had chosen" How many apostles were there? Twelve. What were the orders? He commanded them not to leave Jerusalem, but to wait for what the Father had promised. What did the Father promise? "you will be baptized with the Holy Spirit not many days from now." This is very brief but it does prove scripturally that it was only the twelve. |

I must concede. You are correct about the 120 being in the upper room. Acts 1:13 When they had entered the city, they went up to the upper room where they were staying; that is, Peter and John and James and Andrew, Philip and Thomas, Bartholomew and Matthew, James the son of Alphaeus, and Simon the Zealot, and Judas the son of James. 14 These all with one mind were continually devoting themselves to prayer, along with the women, and Mary the mother of Jesus, and with His brothers. 15 At this time Peter stood up in the midst of the brethren (a gathering of about one hundred and twenty persons was there together), and said, 16 "Brethren, the Scripture had to be fulfilled, which the Holy Spirit foretold by the mouth of David concerning Judas, who became a guide to those who arrested Jesus. 17 "For he was counted among us and received his share in this ministry." 18 (Now this man acquired a field with the price of his wickedness, and falling headlong, he burst open in the middle and all his intestines gushed out. 19 And it became known to all who were living in Jerusalem; so that in their own language that field was called Hakeldama, that is, Field of Blood.) 20 "For it is written in the book of Psalms, 'LET HIS HOMESTEAD BE MADE DESOLATE, AND LET NO ONE DWELL IN IT'; and, 'LET ANOTHER MAN TAKE HIS OFFICE.' 21 "Therefore it is necessary that of the men who have accompanied us all the time that the Lord Jesus went in and out among us-- 22 beginning with the baptism of John until the day that He was taken up from us--one of these must become a witness with us of His resurrection." 23 So they put forward two men, Joseph called Barsabbas (who was also called Justus), and Matthias. 24 And they prayed and said, "You, Lord, who know the hearts of all men, show which one of these two You have chosen 25 to occupy this ministry and apostleship from which Judas turned aside to go to his own place." 26 And they drew lots for them, and the lot fell to Matthias; and he was added to the eleven apostles. Acts 2:1 When the day of Pentecost had come, they were all together in one place. Here is where grammatical syntax comes into play. Based on the NASB translation, the word "they" in Acts 2:1 being a pronoun, would modify the first previous noun, which in this case is "apostles", the now twelve apostles. Also, how much time had passed between when the 120 were in the upper room and "When the day of Pentecost had come"? I myself do not know at this time but are we to assume that they ALL stayed in the upper room during this period of time? Acts 2:1 says they were all together in one place, but doesn't mention this place to be the upper room. God could have made this more clear too. Another point is Acts 2:7 They were amazed and astonished, saying, "Why, are not all these who are speaking Galileans?" Are we to assume that all 120 disciples were Galileans? God may have already clarified it. It will just take further study to find the truth. |

130 | tithing | Acts 13:39 | FTimA | 65231 | ||
Tithing is an Old Testament practice carried over to the present. Paul, speaking to the Corinthians, says in 2 Cor 9:6 Now this I say, he who sows sparingly will also reap sparingly, and he who sows bountifully will also reap bountifully. 7 Each one must do just as he has purposed in his heart, not grudgingly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver. Again he says in 1 Cor 16:1 Now concerning the collection for the saints, as I directed the churches of Galatia, so do you also. 2 On the first day of every week each one of you is to put aside and save, as he may prosper, so that no collections be made when I come. We are not bound today by the "one tenth" rule, but as Paul says, "God loves a cheerful giver" and sowing sparingly, reaps sparingly, sowing boutifully, reaps bountifully. This collection was to help the needy saints in Jerusalem. What happened after this need was satisfied? Did the brethren stop collecting, laying by, saving? This is a much debated issue and I will not get into it too deeply. I will only say that tithing today is not what tithing was when it began. Tithing is first mentioned in Gen 14:20. Abram gives Melchizedek (a priest of God Most High, vs 1) a tithe of all. I am sure those who read this are aware that tithe only means "one-tenth". Some principles of tithing can be learned in Deut. 14:22-29. It says here that the tithe was to be paid every third year (vs 28) and it was to only be a tithe "of that year". The things tithed were to support the Levitical preisthood, strangers, orphans, and widows (if I miss anything, please let me know). The lesson to be learned here is that Israel was to take one tenth of everything they possessed and contribute it to the Lord (for the above purposes). We today are not bound by tithing but we can read that Jesus and his disciples had a treasury, we know that in today's world it takes money to do just about everything and individual congregations are not excluded, maintaining a building, a minister, aid to the needy, etc. all take money. Whether we call it tithing or whatever is immaterial. |
||||||
131 | tithing | Acts 13:39 | FTimA | 65328 | ||
Yes all good things come from God and all that we have, all that we are, belongs to Him. We are bound to give. Whether a person chooses to call that tithing or not is a matter of choice, but in tithing a specific, set amount is required. The Christian today gives "as he purposes in his heart, not grudgingly but cheerfully" (2 Cor 9:7). This may or may not be one-tenth and it doesn't matter if it is or not because we are only commanded to "give as we prosper" (1 Cor 16:2). Under the old law, God decided how much was to be given. Under the new law, God allows man to exercise his free will in deciding what he should give. Think about it. What was the purpose of tithing? To support the preisthood, orphans, strangers, and widows. Today, christians are the royal priesthood and need not be supported as the priesthood did in the past. Orphans and widows are supported in various ways, but tithing is not necessary to do so. As far as giving when we want to give, no, the bible doesn't teach us we have that much freedom. We are given an example that the collection or saving was to occur on the first day of the week. | ||||||
132 | Can someone help w/my realtionship w/god | Rom 10:9 | FTimA | 65331 | ||
Bringing a lost soul to Christ is a very responsible thing to do and if you choose to advise someone as to what they should do to be saved you should tell them the ENTIRE truth. No example in the bible says that all a person has to do is "repent of your sins (a turn around of 180 degrees - knowing the things you are doing or the life you are living is incomplete without HIm), acknowledging that Jesus Christ is God and you want Him to come into your heart and be Lord of your life forever." This is just the beginning of faith but until a person is baptized for the remission of sins they are just as lost as they ever were. Anyone who teaches you otherwise will have to stand before God and answer for their incomplete teaching. John, THE BAPTIST, prepared the way, Jesus was BAPTIZED (although he didn't need to except to fulfill all righteousness, Mt 3:15), the 3000 on the day of Pentecost were BAPTIZED (Acts 2:41), and all throughout the book of Acts we see example aftrer example after example of salvation including baptism. Not after a person is saved, not as a symbol of salvation, but in order to be saved. It is no more a work than hearing, believing, repenting, or confessing. The New Testament is very clear about its purpose, its importance, and its result, REMISSION OF SIN! Romans, 1 Corinthians, Galatians, Ephesians, and Colossians all speak about baptism. I pray to God that people will open their minds to the truth of His word! | ||||||
133 | Can someone help w/my realtionship w/god | Rom 10:9 | FTimA | 65438 | ||
Yes, the story of Cornelius. This is good teaching. The entire context begins with Acts 10:1 and ends in chapter 11:18. If you read ALL of it you will understand that God's purpose here was to show the Jews that salvation was for everyone, Jew and Gentile. Yes, its true they received baptism of the Holy Spirit prior to water baptism, but where in the bible does it say "you must be baptized with the Holy Spirit to be saved"? The Holy Spirit fell upon Cornelius and the others of his household and vs 45 says, "And those of the circumcision who believed were astonished, as many as came with Peter, because the gift of the Holy Spirit had been poured out on the Gentiles also". Those of the circumcision were Jews and how else would they have believed that salvation had come to the Gentiles unless by some miraculous God-given sign? The fact that the Gentiles did receive the Holy Ghost does not mean they were saved because there is no passage I know of that supports this idea. If there is please tell me. I would like to know. Peter commanded them to be (water) baptized, why? The same reason Jesus was, to fulfill all righteousness (Mt 3:15)! Until one is water baptized for the remission of sin ALL RIGHTEOUSNESS IS NOT FULFILLED! The Philippian jailer? Also very good teaching, but you must look at the entire story, not just what you want to look at. It begins at Acts 16:16 and ends at Acts 16:34. Yes, verse 31 says nothing about being baptized and it never will until you read just two more verses down to vs 33, And he(the jailer) took them(Paul and Silas) that very hour of the night and washed their wounds, and immediately he(the jailer) was baptized, he and all his household (were baptized). Note also that this verse says "and immediately he was baptized". Paul most certainly told the whole truth! No, I have not studied Greek tenses. Somebody else asked me about that and I copied the same verse (Acts 2:38) from 17 different translations. All of them have repent, be baptized, for the remission of sins. Now I am not absolutely certain but I think there were approximately 70 scholars, Greek scholars no doubt, that translated the most widely used translation of the bible, the King James Version. How does it read? Then 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. The King James Version, (Cambridge: Cambridge) 1769. Let me repeat that. REPENT, BE BAPTIZED, E V E R Y O N E O F Y O U in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, AND THEN you will receive the gift of the Holy Ghost! The other 16 translations say the same thing in the same order. If God changed His plan in Cornelius' case to prove a point HE IS ALLOWED. HE IS GOD!! As far as Alexander Campbell is concerned, no, I didn't know that he was never baptized, but he is dead. There is nothing that can be done about it. Y O U are still alive! You can do something about it. All I can say, Searcher, is you had better start living up to your name and start searching, rather than accuse someone of lying when everything that is said comes straight from God's word, and don't worry, I forgive you. |

James4Jesus, My suggestion would be to not take anyone's advice at this time (even mine if you feel it is poor) and begin reading the bible on your own. I have been involved in this site for only a few weeks now and have earned a not so popular reputation. I will leave it to you to determine what path you will follow. The four gospels, Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John, give the reader four different perspectives of the things Jesus did while on this earth. Acts gives a history of the beginning of Christ's church and it's development and growth. Romans through Hebrews are often referred to as the Pauline letters. You will read about Paul in Acts chapter 9 and throughout the rest of this book. James, 1 and 2 Peter, 1st, 2nd, and 3rd John, and Jude are also letters written to Christians. Revelation is written by the apostle John and speaks of what most people tend to call "end times". This is a very difficult book to read, and even moreso to understand. I wish you all the luck in your journey. If I can be of any help let me know. |

I should have pointed out some crucial passages. You may not understand everything just yet but start with Acts 1 and 2. If you can, buy yourself a concordance. This is a book that lists all of the words in the bible and in what passages you can find them. The first word I would research is "saved". You will find a lot of information here. Take ALL of it into account. It is ALL God's word. Good luck. | ||||||

I believe that the catechism is nothing but "interpretation" composed by men. Once a person dies, as you cited, a soul's fate is sealed, "then cometh judgment". Indulgences paid by people is one of the ways the "universal" church became as wealthy as it is, taking advantage of people, teaching them that they could pay money to saved a lost loved ones' soul. Where is this teaching in the bible? Keep the faith, teragram123! |

137 | Only church | James 1:27 | FTimA | 65439 | ||
The only "church" that will go to heaven is the one made up of sincere believers in Christ. They may be found in any assembly but only those who obey the whole counsel of God will receive His blessings. This friend who said that the church of Christ is the only church that which will go to heaven is right in the sense that this church is the one Christ purchased with his blood but I don't think this was the intent of what was said. You can take 10 people and sit them side by side, have them read a chapter out of the bible and then tell you what they believe it says. Chances are you will get 10 totally different responses. This is interpretation. On the other hand you can study it for what it is and discern what GOD meant it to say. This is proper bible study. 2 Pet 1:20 But know this first of all, that no prophecy of Scripture is a matter of one's own interpretation |

138 | Bible facts | 2 Pet 1:21 | FTimA | 64429 | ||
It is difficult to know exactly how many men were involved in writing the books of the bible because in some cases the text does not reveal who the book was written by. Through comparison of other books though, authorship has been attributed to a person, e.g. Hebrews doesn't actually say it was written by Paul but the style leans toward his favor. The number of authors that I know of is approximately 40 and the span is anywhere from 1400 to 1700 years in duration. | ||||||

The "rapture" is a concept devised by men. The word is not even found in the bible. Passages that do deal with the end are as follows. 1 Thess 5:2 For you yourselves know full well that the day of the Lord will come just like a thief in the night. 2 Pet 3:10 But the day of the Lord will come like a thief, in which the heavens will pass away with a roar and the elements will be destroyed with intense heat, and the earth and its works will be burned up. 2 Pet 3:11 Since all these things are to be destroyed in this way, what sort of people ought you to be in holy conduct and godliness, 2 Pet 3:12 looking for and hastening the coming of the day of God, because of which the heavens will be destroyed by burning, and the elements will melt with intense heat! 1 Thess 4:13 But we do not want you to be uninformed, brethren, about those who are asleep, so that you will not grieve as do the rest who have no hope. 1 Thess 4:14 For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so God will bring with Him those who have fallen asleep in Jesus. 1 Thess 4:15 For this we say to you by the word of the Lord, that we who are alive and remain until the coming of the Lord, will not precede those who have fallen asleep. 1 Thess 4:16 For the Lord Himself will descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel and with the trumpet of God, and the dead in Christ will rise first. 1 Thess 4:17 Then we who are alive and remain will be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air, and so we shall always be with the Lord. 1 Cor 15:51 Behold, I tell you a mystery; we will not all sleep, but we will all be changed, 1 Cor 15:52 in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet; for the trumpet will sound, and the dead will be raised imperishable, and we will be changed. |
