Subject: "Once Saved Always Saved" |
Bible Note: Ah HA, I see! I also read last night that the actual "Hebrew Canon" was put together after the Christian one. I found that kinda curious. Prior to our Bible, they were only interested in a scroll of The Law. Macabees (apochryphal) tells of the fella who gathered up all the writings he could find. Kings, laws, letters. Again written in Greek. The Hebrews rejected all Greek writings because they didn't see the Gentiles as people of God. No possible way he would send the Holy Spirit unto them! NIV Acts 10 44 While Peter was still speaking these words, the Holy Spirit came on all who heard the message. 45 The circumcised believers who had come with Peter were astonished that the gift of the Holy Spirit had been poured out even on the Gentiles. 46 For they heard them speaking in tongues and praising God. Then Peter said, 47 "Can anyone keep these people from being baptized with water? They have received the Holy Spirit just as we have." 48 So he ordered that they be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ. Then they asked Peter to stay with them for a few days. The entire New Testament is written in Greek. Of course the Hebrews, not believing in Jesus, reject all the New Testament as well. Hmmmmm. |
