I don't believe another baptism would be necessary.

I don't believe that "crucifying to themselves the Son of God afresh" is possible.

Are you saying that water baptism is crucifying the Son of God?

2) As for Adam being in rebellion BEFORE the sin with Eve at the Tree of Knowledge of Good And Evil.... How could he be in rebellion BEFORE eating of the tree since Eating of the Tree is the ONLY thing that was a sin? Gen 2:17 3) You have stated your belief, and again that is fine. But I don't know...

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. 2. I believe Adam was in full rebellion before Eve was tempted ...

Adam was tempted by Eve... and Eve was tempted by the Devil... who was the source of the deception.

Who is responsible for giving into the temptation? The tempter or the temptee?
Remember, Adam was not deceived. Eve was, but Adam was not. See 1st Timothy 2:14.

I ran across a fascinating article on Zion, Illinois; Alexander Dowie, William Glenn Voliva, and the Flat Earth. To my surprise, there was a mention of the Pre-Adamites and a teaching concerning them under Dowie's and Voliva's leadership in Zion. For those that don't know, Dake lived in Zion, for a ...

Who else would you say is responsible for the problem? The fact that different groups think the Bible means different things... does not change the clear meaning of Scripture itself. We can't yield to the idea the the Bible means different things to different groups. If people disagree with the Bib...

That would depend on whether or not the sinner was already in "the" church ? (As opposed by being in some other church that was false.) If he came to us from the outside, we would baptize them in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins. If he was already a supposed member of our congrega...

I think the problem is the deception of the devil. I think the approval comes from what aligns with the Bible itself. I think part of it might be the deception of the devil. But, since he is not omnipotent, I don't think giving him sole credit for causing the problem is warranted. Partially, yes. B...
