Re: Washing Away Sins After Water Baptism?
Only a true repentance from sin will "seal the deal" of the initial baptism. Then, God will forgive. Like in baseball, you can't score till you touch all the bases. Repentance is one of the "bases" to be touched for forgiveness of sins. Interesting. Yet, in baseball, the bases have to be touched in...

Re: Question: Who on this board believes they are divine?
Just read this tonight and thought it might be of some interest. Not a Bible verse of course. “We seem, therefore, to be driven upon the supposition that excessive love bent him to her entreaties, and made him determine to share her fate. And herein we see his unfitness to receive such a gift from ...

Re: Washing Away Sins After Water Baptism?
I don't think that baptism can be invalidated by later sins. The sin would certainly show a lack of faith in what is accomplished at baptism besides the remission of past sins. That being, the death of the "flesh", (Rom 6:6), our death with Jesus, (Rom 6:3-4), and the resurrection with Christ of a ...

Re: Satan
Take a look using his other names. Lucifer, Devil, Beelzebub, Belial, Adversary, Dragon, Serpent, the God of this World, the Prince of this World, the Prince of the power of the air, the Accuser of the Brethren, the Enemy, Tempter, that Wicked One. Depart from me, ye cursed, into everlasting fire, ...

Re: Question: Who on this board believes they are divine?
I would love to hear your answers to these questions. 1. I know of no BIble verse that supports the idea that Adam sinned out of love for Eve. But, if he did, I believe the choice was made before the serpent was permitted to tempt Eve. Just read this tonight and thought it might be of some interest...

Re: Restoring a Fornicator to Full Church Membership
Can you tell me what it was you misunderstood previously ? I thought that you believed that if someone sinned after their water baptism, their baptism was invalid because their sin demonstrated that their repentance from sin was not real. I don't think that baptism can be invalidated by later sins....

Re: Restoring a Fornicator to Full Church Membership
There shouldn't be a delay, but that is what we would have seen if the adulterer in Corinth had repented. Or any of those Paul had noted were now gone from the church. I really can't think of anyone in the bible coming back after having committed a sin, in the NT, so I really don't have any example...

Re: Restoring a Fornicator to Full Church Membership
The sinner had already done his baptism, but hadn't done the repentance from sin. Interesting. I didn't realize that you believed that there could be a time delay between being water baptized and discontinuing the practice of any and all sins. Very interesting. There shouldn't be a delay, but that ...

Re: Restoring a Fornicator to Full Church Membership
Just to be certain I'm understanding you... If this had been your church and it was discovered that a baptized member of the church was found to be fornicating with his father's wife and you kicked him out, he can be restored to full membership in your church without being baptized, again? Exactly....
