Bible Note: Cheri, My heart always sings when I get to read your posts. This whole thing with all the Jesus plus theories drives me a bit schitzo at times. And theory is exactly what they are theory with enough sugar coating to make em look biblical. Good sound bible study and exegesis would clear up the majority of these things. One thing that kind of gets me scratching my head though is how did baptism wound up on the Jesus plus list. 1 Peter 3:21, Ro 6:1-11, Mtt 28:18-20. This one gets continuously mucked up because people refuse to get thier heads out of the water and see that Jesus Christ and cleansing power of his blood is central issue and focus of baptism. Paul spends a considerable amount handling this subject. We have as Peter state in 2 Peter 1:3 God has given us all things pertaining to life and godliness. Light dispels darkness we gotta gotta be ever mindfull and keep our eyes open. In Him, lionheart |
