Dave,
Your diatribe below is full of conjecture and assumptions. You can't add
conjecture and assumptions to scripture to make it mean what you want. That
is called "scripture-twisting" and "proof-texting".
I ask again, "What did Paul preach that is not in the Bible? I will need
Biblical references, as in book, chapter, and verse of course". Notice: no
smilie.

*what did Paul preach that is not in the Bible? I will need Biblical
references*
DAVEH: The easy example is from 1Cor 15:29. I bet there was a shepherd
there by the name of Perriwinkle Lockenstein who when he heard Paul say....
_/Else what shall they do which are baptized for the dead, if the dead rise
not at all? why are they then baptized for the dead?/_
.....it somewhat confused him, so Perriwinkle asked Paul.......
/What do you mean, by _baptized for the dead_? Is that a pagan practice
you are using to teach the Christian principle of the resurrection?/
......and I think Paul's response to Perriwinkle might have been something
similar to this.........
Don't you know, little Perriwinkle, that _/For as many of you as have
been baptized into Christ have put on Christ/_.....? And, surely you know
that _/Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter
into the kingdom of God/_. Wouldn't you think that those who never had the
chance to be /baptized into Christ/ would like that opportunity?
As we know that _/even baptism doth also now save us/_, Jesus _/went
and preached unto the spirits in prison/_ after his death. _/For for this
cause was the gospel preached also to them that are dead, that they might
be judged according to men in the flesh, but live according to God in the
spirit/_. Do you not understand that Jesus said, _/He that believeth and
is baptized shall be saved/_? Jesus also said, /_And whoso believeth not
in me, and is not baptized, shall be damned_. /
For that reason, little Perriwinkle, it was not pagans I was referring
to, but rather Christians are _/baptized for the dead/_, because they
believe that baptism is a necessary covenant to make with the Lord in order
to obtain salvation.
*book, chapter, and verse of course.*
DAVEH: *of course*........If you really want me to provide the references
for the above quotes, Perry....I'd be happy to do so. But you smilie
indicated you were not really seriously requesting such. However, it is
easy enough for you to google each one that you want to reference.

DAVEH: Yes, I do think so.
Dave, *what did Paul preach that is not in the Bible? I will need Biblical
references*, as in *book, chapter, and verse of course.* :-)
