1 | Why only take two of the five? | Acts 10:48 | Morant61 | 54006 | ||
Greetings Searcher! I don't accept the text of Mark 16:9-20 as original, so it is hard to comment on this particular passage. However, I believe the basic principles are valid today as expressed in the following: 1) The ability to drive out demons. 2) The Gift of Tongues. 3) Divine protection. 4) The Gift of Healing. These are all Biblical. I don't see any indication in Scripture that they have ceased to be valid for today. The only one specifically mentioned as ceasing at some point is the gift of tongues. However, Scripture simply says that they will cease when that which is perfect has come. Some believe this a reference to the Bible. Myself, I think it is a reference to the fullness of the Kingdom of God. We won't need any of the gifts of the Spirit then! ;-) Your Brother in Christ, Tim Moran |

2 | In the Andes (only), why mention 2 of 5? | Acts 10:48 | Searcher56 | 54105 | ||
In the Andes, you mentioned 2 and 5, what about the other three? Mark 16:17-18 says "And these attesting signs will accompany those who believe: in My name 1. they will drive out demons; 2. they will speak in new languages 3. they will pick up serpents; 4. and [even] if they drink anything deadly, it will not hurt them; 5. they will lay their hands on the sick, and they will get well." Are the other three discarded? Searcher |

simply because it was easier and faster, those are the two most attacked. (if you'll allow me to say it that way) you know, believing that God is All Powerful and sovereign, it's difficult to believe that he would allow such an addition to the bible that is uninspired. since when is God NOT powerful enough to keep out errors. And I know how we came about with our NT. So I don't need that lesson from anyone. the fact is all of it true. whether or not it's in the OLDEST 2 or not. I know it would be Impossible for man to loose pieces of paper over a 2000 year period. there goes that sarcasm thing again. i gotta get a handle on it. fine, take it out so you have less scripture to prove away. if you know what you are doing you'll find all 5 of those things proven elsewhere in the NT. not only that, it's really hard to argue against scripture plus experience. we've already had 3 doctor certified healings of cancer here. TO GOD BE THE GLORY! |

4 | In the Andes, All 5 or none for today? | Acts 10:48 | Searcher56 | 54113 | ||
Either YOU must take all 5 as being current, or none. Saying that some are general Divine protection is not acceptable. Searcher | ||||||
5 | In the Andes, All 5 or none for today? | Acts 10:48 | In the Andes | 54122 | ||
sorry, i didn't realize i was leading you to think that some were now and some later. let me clarify. I ONLY MENTIONED TWO BECAUSE I'M LAZY AND DON'T LIKE TO WASTE MY TIME DOTTING EVERY I AND CROSSING EVERY T. Clear enough? They are all current as far as the bible is concerned. |
