1201 | what is baptism | Bible general Archive 1 | srbaegon | 27547 | ||
I would agree that faith accompanied (or evidenced) by obedience saves you. The proper act of obedience for salvation is given in Rom 10:9-10 (believe and confess). Baptism has no part of justification. Steve |

The Lord Jesus is not a condition. What His death provided was what the OT sacrifices were pointing to (which you pointed out). We no longer have to do those things to be covered for our sins. The condition has not changed--salvation has been and always will be by faith. It is the only condition. The works done are evidence of the reality of the faith in us. Romans 6 has nothing to do with justification. It begins a section addressing our Christian walk. Steve |

Objection............................ "Rightousness in the old test. was obtained through the same faith that saves us in the new test. but with different conditions." If it's the same faith, why change the conditions? Why would God decide that what worked from Genesis through Malachi would no longer work afterward? When did it change? At the incarnation? At the cross? At the ascension? At Pentecost? Steve |

1204 | Why should we pray to Mary? | 1 Tim 2:5 | srbaegon | 26705 | ||
Mother of God.......................... Hi Joe, Just a note here. Be careful about how far you go with disliking "Mother of God". The Chalcedonian Creed states that Christ was "in these latter days, for us and for our salvation, born of the Virgin Mary, the Mother of God, according to the Manhood." So we should say Mary was the mother of the God-man or God in human form or God incarnate, however you wish to state it. Steve |

Don't assume I am unfamiliar................... I know your line of thought. Why should I put Romans 4 in context with James 2? Better to work out the meaning of Rom 4 and James 2, then comparing them. Romans 4 is teaching that man is justified by faith alone apart from any work. James 2 is a response to a question concerning the proof of faith in someone's life. Two different subjects. Gen 15:6 (where Abraham is declared righteous upon belief) occurs several years before Gen 22 (where the faith is put to the ultimate test). Do we say that Abraham was yet lost until he was willing to offer up Isaac? I think not. He was declared righteous upon belief. No action was necessary. And it was only after this righteousness was imputed did Abraham receive the sign of circumcision. And besides trying to tell us that salvation occurs at baptism, you state that God saves some in a completely different way. You are preaching two gospels, and both are different from the truth.

Digging yourself deeper......................... Kin, You better stop. Not only are you spreading another gospel (baptismal regeneration) but also spreading a third--that Acts 2 and Acts 10 are something altogether different. This is a long ways from the simplicity of Rom 4:3-5. For what does the Scripture say? "ABRAHAM BELIEVED GOD, AND IT WAS CREDITED TO HIM AS RIGHTEOUSNESS." Now to the one who works, his wage is not credited as a favor, but as what is due. But to the one who does not work, but believes in Him who justifies the ungodly, his faith is credited as righteousness Steve |

1207 | Proof that JC is the Messiah to Jews' | NT general Archive 1 | srbaegon | 26274 | ||
Hello ThomasTheNonDoubter! Twice today, you have mentioned that blood can only be created by the seed from the father. This is new to me, and I was wondering if you could supply where that is documented or how you came across it. Thanks! Steve |

1208 | what sabbath does it refer to? | Col 2:16 | srbaegon | 25819 | ||
Your words condemn you, sir. According to this posting and the previous, you say we would be saved by the sacrifices. This is not the case at all. In all of Scripture righteousness is accounted to us on the basis of faith (Gen 15:6; Rom 4:1-8). If the sacrifices could save, we would not need Christ. Your idea of "works righteousness" fails miserably. Steve |
||||||
1209 | what sabbath does it refer to? | Col 2:16 | srbaegon | 25797 | ||
I'm puzzled. It appears you are saying that the ceremonial law is against us because the only way to be saved is to follow it. Is that correct? Steve |
||||||
1210 | what sabbath does it refer to? | Col 2:16 | srbaegon | 25713 | ||
Another view................................ The "handwriting of ordinances that was against us" could not refer to the "sacrificial ceremonial law." It was that part of the Law which the faithful relied on to give atonement for the sins and trespasses committed. The ordinances against us were the original 10 which could never be kept perfectly and pointed out our sin. Steve |

1211 | what sabbath does it refer to? | Col 2:16 | srbaegon | 25644 | ||
Thanks. I checked the references and found no reference to fasting during the Feast of Trumpets. However, there is a connection of fasting to the Day of Atonement in Acts 27:9 (see NASB marginal note). I can see that, since the people were required to humble their souls. So, my follow-up question is: Why did you call Day of Atonement a feast day? Or did I misunderstand what you said? Steve |
||||||
1212 | what sabbath does it refer to? | Col 2:16 | srbaegon | 25521 | ||
Question................................... Could you share where you found that Day of Atonement and Feast of Trumpets were fasting days? Steve |
||||||
1213 | Alter Calls? | Rom 10:9 | srbaegon | 25303 | ||
No offense taken................................. Ed, I was just sharing something I learned recently that was applicable. I've heard the same things you have for years. I'm just trying to be accurate and share what I've found with others. :-) Steve |
||||||
1214 | Alter Calls? | Rom 10:9 | srbaegon | 25283 | ||
Heart....................................... Ed, I was just taught recently that in Jewish thought the heart is the seat of the will and the bowels are the seat of the emotions. Therefore, emotions may accompany belief and obedience but are not a necessary element. Steve |

Don't be sorry you are amused. I thought it just as amusing as you did. :-) Just trying to follow the rules. Steve |

1216 | Isn't Prophecy a Spiritual Gift? | Isaiah | srbaegon | 24387 | ||
Rebuttal..................................... Casiv, Jesus is God--we do not question that. However the Lord has three offices that He fills (as was pointed out). One of those offices is Prophet which was told via Moses in Deut 18:18-19. The proof is in John 4:44 where the term "prophet" is directly attributed to the Lord Jesus as one who would be without honor amongst His people. Steve |

Protocol..................................... Casiv, When quoting another it is proper to acknowledge the source. To not cite that your posting came from Bullinger's "How to Enjoy the Bible" is disrespectful--and some would find it deceitful. Steve |
||||||
1218 | Who is Jesus? | Matt 24:28 | srbaegon | 23705 | ||
But as Tim has already stated with reference to 1 John 2:22, if someone denies the person of Jesus Christ (i.e. who He is in His entirety) that one is a liar and is of antichrist. Basically, Tim and I are saying the same things. Baha'i and it's followers are wrong. Steve |
||||||
1219 | Who is Jesus? | Matt 24:28 | srbaegon | 23703 | ||
Real life example........................... My wife was in Rainbow. She can tell you from first-hand experience, it has nothing to do with Christ except to borrow a name. Steve |
||||||
1220 | Who is Jesus? | Matt 24:28 | srbaegon | 23701 | ||
I suppose you are technically correct. Tim probably should have said that the ultimate test of "the spirit of antichrist" (not "cult") is saying who Jesus is (1 John 4:1-3). Steve |
