Acts Chapter 2 Discussion Page 10

Contrary to popular beleif, Repentance is a step, a pillar and the agent unto the covenant God has given us as prophesied in Joel 2:12-14 This repentance, Has NEVER equated salvation. It suffices the requirement of the LAW, Baptism suffices the requirement of Promise, and tounges suffices the requirement of the Sign. These three are made one in us, LAW,Atonement and Charity.

Acts 2:38 Amen.

Only our Heavenly abba daddy can put us all back on the very same page of the accurate Rightly Divided Word of the Truth and thats just what HE alone can do in these latter days in this Kingdom of God {Love-Salvation-Grace-Full Restoration in the Holy Ghost} once again as promised. The latter rain belongs to His chosen elect beloved Judah Holy Zion to be made of the Temple Made Without Hands amen.

I am not your enemy a disciple though at first you sure treated me so. Sure. Their are those of us who know more and are sharper than others Rightly Dividing the Word but it was never meant to be that way. Only our Heavenly abba daddy can do this and YES HE WILL in these latter days before the Kingdom of God closes our Brother. Shalom.

Stephen Z; I just want to point out to you that though part of what you write is accurate and correct according to the Scriptures; a better knowledge of the entire history with respect to God's plan for man, shows more than what you say; and we have a tendency to negate the importance of the things done in past ages because our perception of history is so short. Maybe we can work together on this?

Dear a disciple. I do not have any theories but the Rightly Divided Word of the truth itself and I back it. We still abide in the Kingdom of God which began at the Day of Pentecost Acts through Jude period. The Kingdom of God is and always has been a temporary age of the Gentiles which transitions back to the Kingdom of Heaven or Revelation. Its called accuracy a disciple. Shalom.

Not long after the first century church two churchs or brides of the gentiles had evolved. The Apostate and Backsliding brides. Save but for His chosen elect beloved Judah holy Zion God will send the greater than John for our Blessed Lord Christ YESHUA is Glorified seated at Gods Right Hand amen. This Elijah Restores and Prepares His True and Genuine Bride once more unto His Everlasting Glory.

Stephen Z; You are missing something major in your "theories." The kingdom of God and the kingdom of heaven is the same thing; and it is the announced glad tidings of Christ having come in the flesh, and the fulfillment manifested in the lives of the Saints of Jesus. The times of the Gentiles started when the kingdom was forfeited to Nebuchadnezzar, and will be removed at the Day of Christ.

Alex; The kingdom of God does not come with observation; neither shall they say, Lo, here! or, Lo, there! for the kingdom of God is within you! "Let him that teaches WAIT on teaching!" "Verily I say to you, We speak that we do KNOW, and testify that we have seen; and no man receives our testimony!" Yet the fool is wiser in his own eyes than seven men who can render him a reason. PRAY Psalm 119!

Jesus said i am the light of the world i must do the works of him that sent me while it is DAY the NIGHT COMES WHEN NO MAN CAN WORK,Isaiah said that darkness wd cover the earth and gross darkness the ppl,The last 2000 yrs ( 2 days ) have been a time of spritual darkness when NO MAN CAN WORK ( SPRITUALLY ), WITHOUT ME YOU CAN DO NOTHIN, WE DO NOT HAVE THE KINGDOM NOW THUS WE LOOK FOR A 2ND COMING .

Praise the Lord my God amen indeed. This day had had marked the entry into the Kingdom of God age = Gentiles. Proof positive that both John the baptist and Christ YESHUA had closed out the Kingdom of heaven or Old Testament age. Speaking in Tongues = Christ in You = the true and genuine Temple made without hands = Acts through Jude. We are now the latter days church age. Shalom beloved Judah Zion.

Speaking in Tongues is and always has been the norm of the new birth which is { Christ in you } made of the true and genuine Temple made without hands unto His Everlasting Glory amen indeed. This is what the Word says and this is what it means. From the book of Acts through unto the book of Jude we are the latter days church in the Kingdom of God. Shalom!

Baptism is one step closer to getting into heaven the next step is speaking in other tongues wish only god well understands you are baptized with the holy ghost 1Corinthians14 "For he that speaketh in an unknown tongue speaketh not unto men, but unto God: for no man understandeth him." also you would have to start living a holy life to take care of your body because it is gods temple. 1Corth619

Thank God for the Holy Spirit who leads and guides us into all truth: for he shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak; and he will show us things to come.
( John 16:13)

GOD came as the son. The bible says GOD was manifested in the flesh. We all know GOD is spirit. So GOD being spirit robed himself in flesh. Because without the shedding of blood there is no remission of sins. He became flesh so he could shed blood for our sins.

baptism is FOR one thing only REMISSION OF SINS. this is the last step to becoming a CHRISTIAN.

Remember the question that was asked of Peter. What must we do? Peter told the people what they must do:acts2:38 and who else should dothis:acts2:39

Acts 2:16 But this is that which was spoken by the prophet Joel The Apostles thought they were on the last days. Joel 1:15 15 Alas for the day! for the day of the Lord is at hand, and as a destruction from the Almighty shall it come. The Apostle knew the day of the Lord was near. They were living it , but something stops all that, in chapter 7, the stoning of Stephen. Jews rejected Christ.

Verse 11 shows the power of hearing the good news of God in one's own language.

"..Jews, devout men, out of every nation under heaven..every man heard them speak in his own language." It may seem like an insignificant point that there were Jews from every Nation under heaven; but there is much in it. Because of Israel's sin and rebellion, rejection of the faith and God's Spirit in His Prophets; they were put under the dominion of the Gentiles until the Day of the LORD.

The promise of the Holy Ghost is now fulfilled. Right from the Day of Pentecost, it is being showered on us today. We must "repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost. For the promise is unto you, and to your children, and to all that are afar off, even as many as the Lord our God shall call."

Baptism is "for the remission of sins" Acts 2:38

Jesus said"I am the way, truth and light, no man come unto the father except through Him. John 14:6. Not saved threw baptism, but it is a command of God. Matt. 3:15, 28:19, John 3:26. Baptism is like a wedding rings, you put the rings on to show you belong to someone, baptism is showing you belongs to that Church, belief in The Lord Jesus Christ for salvation, you belong to The family of God

The disciples of Christ were well familiar with baptism. They had a 12 to 1 ratio over John the Baptist in John 4:1, 2. So they followed Jesus Christ instructions. Full of the Holy Ghost they knew the Father, Son and the Holy Ghost was one Lord with one name, " Jesus Christ !" The only method of baptism by the church in the bible. There is no other name under heaven given to mankind for salvation.

"..The LORD said unto my Lord, Sit thou on my right hand, until I make thy foes thy footstool." "But he, being full of the Holy Ghost, looked up steadfastly into heaven, and saw the glory of God, and Jesus standing on the right hand of God, and said, Behold, I see the heavens opened, and the Son of man standing on the right hand of God." The Spirit in the Saint; Jesus standing at God's right hand!

Amen Ben/redeemed u both point out some great things I am soo glad Ive been/redeemed when I obeyed Acts 2:38 before that I was destined for hell until I was baptized in Jesus name and filled with His Spirit with the evidence given in Acts 2:4

To Ben: in order to be saved you must believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, Repent of your sins and if you believe with all your heart that Jesus is the Son of God you can be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ for the remmission or removal of your sins and you will receive the gift of the Holy Ghost it's Gods promise to you now you are in him and called by his name and you are an heir with him to

Calling upon the name of the of the Lord is definitely a part of our salvation further study and prayer is necessary for a more complete understanding of what is required. Mark 16:16 He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved. Titus 3;5 He saved us by the washing of regeneration and the renewing of the Holy Ghost the same Acts 2:4 Holy Ghost.Jesus loves us all don't reject His promise

I thank my God for everyone on here who has obeyed Acts 2:38 and those that are on there way to obeying it .Do npt resist or reject this verse holds the keys to the kingdom of heaven which Jesus told Nicodemus he could not enter into heaven without John 3:3-5. Obey and recieve the Acts 2:4 promise.The promise is unto UActs 2:39 and unto all

Amen.
