Was Barnabas an apostle? Acts 14:14You posted it, not me, so I've no idea what post you meant, but it still made no sense.
However for someone who claims to stick to scripture, you again prove the dishonesty of that claim. Nowhere in scripture is Ananias called an apostle. And if he is an apostle, then he breaks your fake rules of membership and proves apostleship today.
Jesus makes it explicitly clear that deliverance from demons only works with believers, otherwise they will return.-Any verse that you can show me to support casting demons out of saved persons? Any examples that jesus or paul did that to those who already had been born again?
Of course he was.Was Barnabas an apostle? Acts 14:14
You are the one who whines about always sticking to scripture, but now argues against the authenticity of verses that say things you don't like. Ho ho ho, what a pious fraud you are!All that you have given so far is the disputed ending of the Gospel of mark, and you have NEVER presented to us ANY verse that says Christians can be possesses, or need to have demons cast out of them!
VALIDATED EASILY.-I can claim that the scriptures never indicate that ever needed to happen to a saved person, so its up to you to validate your claim!
So answer this question. If i live in a multi million dollar home, while literally children starve to death in Africa, is that love?
God has used in a mighty fashion MANY since time of Christ who suffered from various health and other issues, Spurgeon, far greater preacher than you or I am , suffered with Gout most of his adult life, and doubt that was due to "lack of faith"
Paul learned to practice contentment, to experience the presence of the Lord Jesus regardless of having a lot or very little! There is the abundant life indeed for the Christian, but it does not consist of how much money/health/prosperity one has, but that they now have all SPIRITUAL blessings in Christ! Those who teach prosperity really are not teaching NT but OT promises to Israel, and go for it, but just make sure to teach on the curses there also!
We will receive our inheritance IN FULL at the time of the second coming, not all of it here on earth!This is a precious concession you have unknowingly made.
For we ARE made partakers of the promises and heirs and fellow citizens of the commonwealth of Israel...yet without the law. We have been redeemed from the curse of the law...not the promises. All the promises of God are YEA in Christ to which we say the amen.
God save the WHOLE man, body soul and spirit. But in accordance with our faith.
And if preachers only preach part, by and large we can only have faith for part. Faith cometh by hearing and hearing by the word of God.
Spurgeon believed as I did concerning this issue, as he held that God could still do healings and signs, but that none were gifted as such by God to do them now, and he would have held to the scriptures alone as the revelation from God to us now!He did, I am a lover of Spurgeon and have many volumes of His Pulpit, during the cholera epidemic of London when folk were dropping like flies Spurgeon feared to visit those of his flock who had been contaminated and were dying but being the man of God that He was he resolved to do his duty.
As he did he passed a shop window with a sign that said something to the effect [I am sorry I don't recall exactly] "Fear the Lord and you won't fear cholera" And Spurgeon states that he never doubted from that time that God would keep him safe.
Spurgeon did believe that God heals in answer to prayer, evangelical Christians have always believed it. But they did not believe it as a doctrine, as part of the salvation purchased by blood which it clearly is.
Spurgeon believed things his forefathers never believed in, that does not reflect on his forefathers, the revelation of God is ongoing...But God only reveals what is in the scriptures already.
A gospel that saves them is NOT the one that also promises them to have a million dollar house like mine also!When you answer me if it is right to send a preacher out to those people with a gospel that saves them.
You do know that was a figure od speech , right? Not a biblical theology on demonology?VALIDATED EASILY.-
Luke11v24When the unclean spirit is gone out from the man, it passes through waterless places, seeking rest and not finding any. Then it says, ‘I will return to my house, from where I came out.’ 25And having come, it finds it swept and put in order. 26Then it goes and takes seven other spirits more evil than itself, and having entered, they dwell there; and the last of that man becomes worse than the first.”
Its patently obvious from the above that Jesus never drove demons out of unbelievers, when he knew they would be free to return with 7 more even stronger ones.
There is no ministry in the Bible of someone going around exorcising demons out of real Christians!You are the one who whines about always sticking to scripture, but now argues against the authenticity of verses that say things you don't like. Ho ho ho, what a pious fraud you are!
Sadly for you, the evidence for the authenticity of those verses is overwhelming, so suck it up and deal with what it says.
And its your job, not mine, to demonstrate from scripture that believers cannot have a demon, something you have never remotely proved.
Nevertheless, here's some good teaching, unless you're going to claim these verses aren't authentic as well. But as already posted, you can find similar in Matthew.-
Luke11v24When the unclean spirit is gone out from the man, it passes through waterless places, seeking rest and not finding any. Then it says, ‘I will return to my house, from where I came out.’ 25And having come, it finds it swept and put in order. 26Then it goes and takes seven other spirits more evil than itself, and having entered, they dwell there; and the last of that man becomes worse than the first.”
If demons can re-enter a nonbeliever 7 times worse, do you seriously imagine we should be driving them out of them.
No, clearly deliverance is to cleanse the enemy out of the habitation of believers.
Oh that's true enough..but its FAR from the biggest. The RCC has the spiritual deception market monopoly. After all the false charasmatic movement has acknowkedged rome as a mother church and in principle subbitted to it.One of the biggest areas that satan has got into the church is in Charismatic Chaos though!
Yeah but you work a job to maintain your style of life .?I never di seek to be wealthy, not to promote health and wealth as the main reason to be saved!
This doesn't answer my question. What did Jesus call of Saul? What did He assign him?Yes, when He spoke to both Paul and the one that laid hands on Paul, and scales were removed from His eyes and he could see again!
A gospel that saves them is NOT the one that also promises them to have a million dollar house like mine also!
Spurgeon believed as I did concerning this issue, as he held that God could still do healings and signs, but that none were gifted as such by God to do them now, and he would have held to the scriptures alone as the revelation from God to us now!
