Re: [TruthTalk] Condition of heart of "unregenerate" gentiles

Here we go again .. Now you are going to negate the whole teaching having to do with Jesus' baptism in the Holy Spirit over this "incarnational" thing along with the Nicean teaching about "trinity" - If it is a baptism of repentance then I am sure the Lord understands.  What did Philip baptise the eunuch in the name of? Also where did "this season of advent" come from Lance?  Jesus wasn't born on December 25th was He?   On Sun, 18 Dec 2005 08:59:50 -0500 "Lance Muir" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> writes: And, I'm accused of DBP's? In this season of advent Judy, it is difficult to over emphasize the significance of the INCARNATION! Do you believe in baptism in the name of The Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit or baptism in the name of Jesus ONLY? From: Judy Taylor   It is all over the scriptures Lance - Promised in the OT and received in the NT John baptized and his baptism was one of repentance Luke 3:3 But John spoke of the baptism of Jesus Luke 12:50 Jesus spoke of it Himself ... Matt 3:11 It is reinterated in Acts 1:5 Received during Passover Celebration in Jerusalem by believers Acts 2:3,4 Peter calls it the "Promise of the Father" given to as many as are called Acts 2:38,39 This was important enough for the apostles at Jerusalem to send Peter and John to pray for some Samaritans who had received John's baptism of repentance only Acts 8:15 They had been baptised in the name of Jesus but the Holy Ghost had not yet fallen on them. The gentiles at Cornelius house received throught the ministry of Peter Acts 11:16   How would these believers react to our present day message - that they were concerned and running about in vain when all they had to do was accept the right teaching about the incarnation?       On Sun, 18 Dec 2005 06:52:22 -0500 "Lance Muir" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> writes: Judy:Please expand on 'The Baptism of Jesus' as you've come to understand it?. From: Judy Taylor   Why wouldn't a believer believe it?  It is demonstrated right in the NT scriptures and it's called the Baptism of Jesus.   On Sun, 18 Dec 2005 00:00:30 -0700 [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: CPL, Are [Bible] readers who believe that JC taught that encouraging the baptism of the HS for the already converted 'sums up the Law and Prophets' Christian/s?   On Sat, 17 Dec 2005 22:01:39 -0500 Judy Taylor <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> writes: || Matt 7:11 is a scripture that is used to encourage people to seek the Baptism in the Holy Spirit... jt ||   --   for reference: 7:12So in everything, do [the good] to others [t]hat you would have them do to you, for this sums up the Law and the Prophets.                                            judyt                                        He that says "I know Him" and doesn't keep His Commandments                               is a liar (1 John 2:4)                                            judyt                                        He that says "I know Him" and doesn't keep His Commandments                               is a liar (1 John 2:4)                                            judyt                                        He that says "I know Him" and doesn't keep His Commandments                               is a liar (1 John 2:4)
