Based on the Word of God, if a man isn't born of the water, which is being baptized in Jesus name which is the official position of this forum, and if a man isn't born of the Spirit, which is receiving the Holy Ghost with the initial evidence of speaking in tongues, which is the official position of this forum, that man cannot enter into the kingdom of heaven!
And if a man cannot enter into the kingdom of heaven, the only other option is to spend an eternity in a devil's hell!!
So if a man is not baptized in Jesus name (born of the water) and filled with the Holy Ghost (born of the Spirit), that man will not go to heaven but will spend an eternity in a devil's hell!
CAN I SAY THAT????

The italicized words in your position statement were added by you. You can say that on this forum, and you can say that's your opinion, based on your understanding of scripture, but to those who interpret it a different way, you cannot judge them and sentence them to hell.
I understand it's the official position of this forum, and to those who don't agree with it, maybe it's time for us to go somewhere else, but to put someone in hell because they don't agree with your extrapolation is against the Word.
I've posted scripture that indicates that believing on the Lord Jesus Christ is what is required for salvation, and I've been told several times in the past hour that I'm preaching false doctrine.
So, what's good for the goose is good for the gander!
