Re: Love One Another and the Cross

What is actually the Apostles' doctrine, outlined in 2 John 1?

Re: Love One Another and the Cross

Is there any other support in the NT that Love is the doctrine? Can one find, anywhere in Scripture, support that anything precludes love as the doctrine? Is there a subject change between vv 6 and 7, in 2 John 1? (and yikes, are there better translations than the one this link leads you to? )

Re: Love One Another and the Cross

Is an Acts 2:38 invitation sufficient to admit one to the Wedding Feast? Or is obtaining clothing first more essential? What is clothing?

No translation including this makes the comandment the doctrine. Commandments aren't doctrines.

They fulfill law.

Please quote what you're responding to. Too much to read with multiple posts to know what you're referring to here.

I will talk Any scripture and deal with what's in those scriptures, and debate why our views differ and which Is correct whether you present it or me. Been trying for days.

It's not stated in John 's Epistles.

Please stop playing and actually start discussing. Circles circles circles.
