Jesus founded a hierarchical church. He gave his church leaders the authority to interpret the scriptures. He did not give his authority to you to do this. You are free to express your opinion, but you have no authority to impose it on anyone else. I don't have this authority either. Hebrews...

"Putting away the filth of the flesh" is a reference to taking a normal bath, which removes dirt and sweat. It has nothing to do with sin. Baptism saves us by washing away (forgiving) our sins. This washing away of our sins through water baptism, as commanded by Jesus, is what gives us a clear...

Paul's call was to preach. He did not have the time to baptize. Other disciples with him did the baptizing that was commanded by Jesus. The purpose of Paul's comment was to stop the one-upmanship of some members of his flock, who thought that a baptism performed by one disciple was better than a...

This is what the Jews of today believe, according to Ask the Rabbi: The Just Ask! - AskTheRabbi.org Team God uses four expressions of redemption in describing our Exodus from Egypt and our birth as a nation: 1. “I will take you out…” 2. “I will save you…” 3. “I will redeem you…” 4. “I will take...

I think the apostles would whole-heartedly disagree with you. It is the water baptism commanded by Jesus that washes away—forgives—our sins. It is this water baptism that makes us Jesus' disciples. This water baptism sanctifies us and makes us righteous (justified) and God's children by...

I don't believe in Bible Alone because this is not scriptural. The NT Bible as we know it today did not exist when the apostles evangelized. They preached the gospel in person. This is called the oral tradition of the church. Later, the apostles and disciples wrote letters to further explain...

That is because we've listened to and understood what Jesus, his apostles, and his disciples taught about salvation.

No, it does not. Many people believe the way I do about this subject. You are not one of them.

If any person sins a sin that causes him to lose his sanctifying grace, he is no longer godly. He must repent or he will not inherit eternal life. Here is what Paul preaches: Titus 1:16 They profess to know God, but in works they deny Him, being abominable, disobedient, and disqualified for...

Isn't it great that Jesus will do all the judging? John 5:22

There are two degrees of sin: mortal and not mortal. 1 John 5:16-17 Mortal sin is sin that causes the loss of eternal life unless confessed and repented of before death, such as the following: Galatians 5:19-21 Now the works of the flesh are revealed, which are these: adultery, sexual...

May God bless you with many good gifts! :)

Thank you for sharing your opinion on what you think I should do. ;)

Thank you for sharing your opinion. ;)

It depends on what a person does with these intrusive thoughts. If he rebukes and abolishes them from his mind as soon as realizes they are there, there is no sin. However, if he continues to think about them and enjoys thinking about them, he has sinned. Ezekiel 33:12-13 “Therefore, son of...

I think God still has a plan for them. However, I think the two witnesses in 70 AD were the Law and the Prophets, symbolized as two human witnesses.

The Book of Revelation was written in the 60s AD. John was told to go and measure the temple. The temple was still standing. Revelation 11:1-3 Jesus is king over heaven and earth. He spiritually reigns over the whole world right now. Acts 5:31 God exalted him to his own right hand as Prince...

If there is to be another fulfillment, I think it will be these two.

You have your opinion and I have mine. :)
