Is Acts 2:38 your god?

[SDG]

Jesus is still my God!!!

[RandyWayne]

I read the first page -and the last, while skipping through all the ones in between.

I think it is a very legitimate question and was sort of surprised to see the venom against it even being asked. I have heard similar sermons myself in fact. Where people could get the (understandable) idea that some people wouldn't lose a wink of sleep if the whole bible was thrown out except for Acts 2:38 and a very specific verse two relating to how they live their life (Deut 22:5 comes to mind). All the lessons of the gospels seem to be lost in the process......

One interesting quote from the message and I paraphrase is .....

"You are married to doctrine and have divorced youself from Deity."

What say ye of this message? I will post audio of the message later.

Have some made Acts 2:38 and standards THE MESSAGE ... while Jesus is sitting on the outside looking in????


Just asking a question ....
