Hidemi Williges wrote: djc49, Picking a fight, are you? If the KJV is so old, inaccurate and corrupt; then why are there hundreds of new versions(All of them proclaiming to update the old classic KJV and having the latest discoveries and modern readability)? Since when are sins and evil, the same thing? Explain. Maybe, if these money grubbing and corrupt churches had adhered to a KJV Bible, they wouldn't be in the position that are in. BTW, When you mention the greek, be honest. You mean the westcott and hort text. So then, would you say that the love of money is the root for pornography, homosexuality, pedophilia, gossip, idolatry and all the other sins that do not relate to money? |

Candle Lit wrote: Hi, Roger, I know from your posts that you are the "intellectual and theological elite." I am not. But, you know what, as Christians, whatever our station in life is, whatever our education, we are told to go into all the world and proclaim the gospel. An ad hominem attack, also known as argumentum ad hominem (Latin: "argument to the person", "argument against the person") consists of replying to an argument or factual claim by attacking or appealing to a characteristic or belief of the source making the argument or claim, rather than by addressing the substance of the argument or producing evidence against the claim.Thank you for your usual attack on my person rather than dealing with the subject matter. It is always a pleasure receiving your kind words. |

Candle Lit wrote: From personal experience, the Baptists have a better understanding of the Holy Spirit than the Presbyterians. The Presbyterians rarely even mention the Holy Spirit, except somewhat mystically. From personal experience? Are we to construct our systematic theology through personal experiences? Yes the charismatics manifest a style of ecstatic worship that is foreign to the scriptures except for maybe here: "And he said, It is not the voice of them that shout for mastery, neither is it the voice of them that cry for being overcome; but the noise of them that sing, do I hear". And it came to pass, as soon as he came nigh unto the camp, that he saw the calf, and the DANCING; and Moses' anger waxed hot". Exodus 32:18 and: "And the sons of Nadab and Abihu, the sons of Aaron, took either of them his censer, and put fire therein, and put incense thereon, and offered strange fire before the Lord, which He commanded them not. And there went out fire from the Lord, and devoured them, and they died before the Lord". Lev 10:1 |

Rudi and DJC49: One must make certain that one does not confuse "Allegory" with "Typology""Allegory is a form of extended metaphor, in which objects, persons, and actions in a narrative, are equated with the meanings that lie outside the narrative itself. The underlying meaning has moral, social, religious, or political significance, and characters are often personifications of abstract ideas as charity, greed, or envy" In other words, and allegory strives to force a moral lesson "into the text". Typology is a theological doctrine of theory of types and their antitypes found in Scripture. Even though Rudi is trying to force Jesus as the archetype of the type tree. He is using typology not using allegory. I don't agree with Rudy on the tree being a type of Christ. but he is not using an allegory. Allegories are methods used by liberals to produce "law light" out of scriptural texts. |

Veritas wrote: Dont bring people to church... its not the churches job to save people... the job of the church is to prepare the deciples to spead the Gospel... now it is okay for someone to get saved in church of course but that is not the purpose of the church... Actually the main job of the church is uphold the proclamation of the gospel and to administer the sacraments. In other words, to "Feed the Sheep" in Word and Sacrament. |

John UK wrote: Got it, ta DJC49 Well, I don't know what this 'sign and the seal of their acceptance into the physical church' means. As far as I know, Roger, there is no belief in baptism being a continuation or fulfillment of the OT circumcision. Romans 4:11 And he received the "SIGN" of circumcision, a "SEAL" of the righteousness of the faith which he had yet being uncircumcised: that he might be the father of all them that believe, though they be not circumcised; that righteousness might be imputed unto them also:Eph 1:12 That we should be to the praise of his glory, who first trusted in Christ. In whom ye also trusted, after that ye heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation: in whom also after that ye believed, ye were "SEALED" with that holy Spirit of promise, Which is the earnest of our inheritance until the redemption of the purchased possession, unto the praise of his glory. John: Even the Baptists that held to the 1649 Confessing accepted the fact that Baptism was the physical act or :SIGN: of one being accepted into the physical church. They beleived that circumcism was the O.T. sign and the seal of the covenent of promise, and Baptism is the sign and the seal of the New Convenant. |
