    Is the baptism vs not required, a silly debate?

    Baptism is an outward ordinance showing an inward work. It does not purify sin but after a person is saved then is a command of God so will be a sin if a person willingly disobeys the commandment making that person no longer saved.

    The question cessationists must answer.

    Actually that is why they are divided. Because they have given themselves over to a false church government and every man does that which is right in his own eyes instead of their being judges as Isaiah 1 speaks about.

    Is the Book of Revelation, written to and for angels...?

    In a very real sense it does have to be interpreted by Angel's. Just as Paul called himself an angel so are God called ministers.

    Question: Does your church avoid Genesis and Revelation?

    Even from the first chapter of Revelation we see that the literal approach is not to be taken by John describing to us what the objects meant by symbols. The scripture explains itself and combined with history Revelation is an awesome book. If a church doesn't explore this they will not know how...

    A Biblical Defense of Bible Alone + The Anointing to Understand It

    Does Sola Scriptura mean that even though the Bible says to obey those that have rule over you that you only have to if it is plainly written in scripture? Like regarding clothing, marriage, etc?

    Sanctification Timeline

    Your testimony is wonderful. Be careful of falling into "religion" without maintaining experience with God. Also the Word says that Jesus came to save us from our sin. To deliver us out of that path so we no longer have to sin by His grace.

    7th Trumpet Rapture?
