Thank you, Bro. Epley. Interesting, isn't it, that when someone has the nerve here to say this that it's called "Radical", or that I must be a fake. I bristle every time I hear the term "Trinitarian Christian."

I'm waiting for the character who calls himself "REALoldPaths". He will talk in old English speak while going on and on between the difference between European and African swallows as well as the weights of wood versus a duck and how it relates to witches.......

I've gotta give you a high-five on that one. That's actually pretty funny.

fake? maybe but I know Christians who really believe and preach that a person cannot be a real Christian if he/she is "trinitarian" and if he/she has not completed all the steps/experiences of Acts 2:38. Some of them are friends of mine on Facebook.

I wasn't trying to be funny, just telling the truth. In my opinion, you've had your way on this forum for way too long.

Let's shed light on what's really happening.
Okay. Here's a cross-post of mine from another thread:

"Jesus saves.

Isaiah 53:11; Hosea 14:2; Matthew 20:28; Acts 13:39; Romans 3:22-24, Romans 4:24-25, Romans 5:1, Romans 5:9, Romans 5:18-19; 1 Corinthians 15:3; 2 Corinthians 5:21; Galatians 1:4, Galatians 3:13; 1 Timothy 2:6; Titus 2:14, Titus 3:5; Hebrews 1:3, Hebrews 2:17, Hebrews 9:28; 1 Peter 2:24, 1 Peter 3:18; 1 John 2:2, 1 John 3:5; 1 John 4:10; Revelation 1:5.

Our hypothetical "repentant sinner" isn't "saved" "because he repented". He isn't in a "state of awareness awaiting further cleansing in baptism which will ultimately save him."

Our hypothetical "repentant sinner" is "saved" only because the Savior has saved him. That is the purpose of a Savior; salvation."



That's "what's happening." Jesus saves us. It is His mission and purpose. To pretend that a 100 year old "tradition" takes the place of the everlasting Savior is unreasonable. To pretend that your own tradition is somehow more paramount in the Kingdom than the Savior Himself takes quite an imagination.

Name for us, just one of these "Christians" (Acts 2:38 practitioners as you define them) who "believed the fulness of the Acts 2:38 message" and lived between the years 225 A.D. until 1900 A.D.

Oooo, that's true!! I forgot about that! I've been beaten up by one particular friend of yours! He's done the beat-down on me twice! Then he friended me, I accepted it, then thought better when he did it to me again, and took him off because I was afraid he was gonna start posting angry stuff on my page. But then he kept sending me friends requests. Do you know if he's here on the forum?

Re: I Don't Like The Terms Con and Lib!

Someone said, "If everyone in this church was just like me what kind of church would this church be!"

Can you imagine having a church full of folks with the kind of acidic, abrasive attitude manifested by Old Paths II. I know he won't mind me saying something about his attitude because he's proud of it. But where does Charity come into the picture. And I feel certain he's not treating others as he would want to be treated because each time someone treats him the way he comes across he gets very defensive.

Oh well, OldPathsII is just OldPaths II. What more can you say?

It's really amazing the lengths some go to in order to justify their disobedience to the clear instructions of scripture! You can locate all the verses you like, but you still can't avoid the very clear and simple instructions of John 3, Acts 2, Acts 10, Acts 19. There is no trinitarian pathway to God. Jesus said, "If you do not believe that I am He, you shall die in your sins."
