Baptism

I have a very general question...

For those of you that think what is said at baptism is of utmost importance, I would really like to know your basis.

I absolutely believe baptism is essential...

Not just a lot of scriptures, but scripture to back up statements made. To me, any statement backed up by the Word of God is "meaty."

Preaching straight from the Word and backing up every statement with scripture.

So many times, preachers open with a scripture and talk for an hour without returning to the Word. I don't think...

I'm sure they've added some new believers to their assembly, but I know a lot of their new people have been transfers from Life Tabernacle.

Re: Harold Hoffman attacks Jim Kilgore

I make a motion to move this topic/discussion to a new thread. I initially got on here as a defense to the comments HH made against my pastor. The thread has taken a complete turn since then.

Homosexuality can only be overcome with God's Spirit. There is no "quitting" homosexuality.

Re: Harold Hoffman attacks Jim Kilgore

Again...my eyes can't see issues of the heart. As someone that's turned away from the idea of legalism, I'm no longer solely focused on how things appear.

I'm curious as to what your response...

I have no idea. I haven't yet developed the ability to see the contents of another person's heart and soul.

I do know that one of the women was weeping in the presence of God.

Re: Harold Hoffman attacks Jim Kilgore

Homosexuality is a sin just like lying, gossiping, fornicating, etc. You might as well change your statement to say:

I make no apology we are NOT a sinner friendly church.

Re: Harold Hoffman attacks Jim Kilgore

Yes, it's supposed to be good. In fact, it's AWESOME! Where would you like them to be if not in church.

One of them was weeping because of the presence of God she felt in the place.

I don't mean women in pants or cut hair. I just don't think along those lines any more. I'm talking about the...

You've just proven that you're speaking based on rumors and not on first-hand knowledge. If he doesn't believe in water baptism, then how would you explain this photo? It was taken SIX weeks ago. ...

I'll just repeat what I said prior, which is that JK teaches Biblical principles of modesty and holy living.

JK teaches biblical principles like modesty but not man-made UPCI-specific standards such as only skirts, uncut hair, no makeup, etc.
