  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

WATER BAPTISM ISN'T FOR US

I was wanting you to show me where Paul said not to keep the great commission.
And I am. sure that you understand what the word CONTEXT means !!

AND. THE CONTEXT of Mattb 28 is verse 16 , the 11 DISCIPLES. and NOT THE BODY. OF CHRIST !!

The disciples were instructed by Christ IN THE GREAT COMMISSION to baptize in the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit, and to teach all THEIR followers and disciples to observe all things whatsoever He has commanded them (including what was commanded in the great commission) MEANING the great commission is for everyone who is a follower/disciple.

Where is the word Trinity?
And you changed the subject. !!

Read 1 JOHN 4:7. !!

For there are THREE who bear witness in. heaven ,the FATHER. the WORD , and HOLY SPIRIT. and it means ONE and TWO and THREE

and these make a TRINITY.

I countered with an equally ridiculous question. Yes, the IMPLICATION of the Trinity is all through the s Bible, but the word is not. Same with the great commission. Christ’s final commandment to us, NO MATTER WHAT YOU CALL IT.

This denying something is a thing just because it has been given a name that isn’t in the Bible is getting tedious.

So then you're nobody special and your very odd personal interpretation of scripture is just that: your own very odd personal interpretation that is guite different from.what scripture actually says.

Got it.
And many love WATER // BAPTISM ??

And in 1 Cor 10:2 says and ALL were BAPTIZRD TOGETHER unto MOSES. in. the CLOUD. and in. the SEA .

Help with your. own odd personal interpretation ??

Yet you are playing that game with us in every post you write. If you don’t want us to play the game back, then YOU need to stop playing it.

You accept and use the word TRINITY, which is not in the Bible, as a word that depicts a Biblical truth. And then you turn and literally harass us for using the phrase “the Great Commission”, which is also not in the Bible and depicts a Biblical truth. This is the game you play. Do not get upset with us when we point it out.

Better go back in time and tell early Christians they were wrong to observe the rite of water baptism. An early church manual, the Didache, observed water baptism in the Trinitarian names during the 1st century onwards.



CHAPTER 7​

7:1 But concerning baptism, thus baptize ye: having first recited all these precepts, baptize in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit, in running water;

7:2 but if thou hast not running water, baptize in some other water, and if thou canst not baptize in cold, in warm water;

7:3 but if thou hast neither, pour water three times on the head, in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit.

7:4 But before the baptism, let him who baptizeth and him who is baptized fast previously, and any others who may be able. And thou shalt command him who is baptized to fast one or two days before.

There is a difference between baptizing with water and the baptism of the Holy Spirit. What is mentioned in Matthew 28 is water baptism because that is the only kind of baptism WE can do. Only God can baptize with the Holy Spirit.

Baptism with water is what we are commanded to do in response to God’s baptism with the Holy Spirit. It is how we are commanded to follow Christ and to identify with Him.
