Featured Not commonly understood.

Here's one:

10 but hath now been manifested by the appearing of our Saviour Christ Jesus, who abolished death, and brought life and immortality to light through the gospel, 2 Tim 1

15 For though ye have ten thousand tutors in Christ, yet have ye not many fathers; for in Christ Jesus I begat you through the gospel. 1 Cor 4

Another:

28 And Jesus said unto them, Verily I say unto you, that ye who have followed me, in the regeneration when the Son of man shall sit on the throne of his glory, ye also shall sit upon twelve thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel. Mt 19

5 not by works done in righteousness, which we did ourselves, but according to his mercy he saved us, through the washing of regeneration and renewing of the Holy Spirit,
6 which he poured out upon us richly, through Jesus Christ our Saviour;
7 that, being justified by his grace, we might be made heirs according to the hope of eternal life. Titus 1

Another:

16 He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that disbelieveth shall be condemned. Mk 16

40 And with many other words he testified, and exhorted them, saying, Save yourselves from this crooked generation. Acts 2

21 which also after a true likeness doth now save you, even baptism, not the putting away of the filth of the flesh, but the interrogation of a good conscience toward God, through the resurrection of Jesus Christ; 1 Pet 3

 

26 The last enemy that shall be destroyed is death. 1 Cor 15

14 And death and hell were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death. Rev 20

Yes, the gospel brings these things to light.

 

But the passage (Mark 16:16) says that it IS a requirement in order to be 'saved', just as it is in Acts of the Apostles 2:38-40, and 1 Peter 3:21, and Matthew 3:7.

 

Yes. It absolutely most definitely was a requirement for the Jews of that generation to be 'saved' from the wrath that was soon to come upon them.

 

The Death of Death in the Death of Christ

death dies because Jesus killed it for the believer

 

Yes! There is! I've cited them!

Yes! There is! I've cited them!

Agree! None of the passages pertain to 'eternal' deliverance (salvation). You're just so tunnel vision brainwashed that any time you read the word 'saved' it's in the eternal sense, and that is soooo far from the truth.

What is the 'salvation' in this verse?:

40 And with many other words he testified, and exhorted them, saying, Save yourselves from this crooked generation. Acts 2

Is it 'saved' from eternity in hell, or is it saved from something in this temporal realm? "This is not commonly understood", particularly by Dispensational evangelicals.

 

If they are then water baptism is an absolute must. You don't get to 'cherry pick' which parts of the 'formula' for immortality you want to include.

What was Christ's 'audience' in Mark? What was Paul's 'audience' in Romans?

No, same exact 'sense', same exact 'audience' as in Mark and Acts 2 and Mt 3.

 

You've the same 'confusion', the same "not commonly understood", of nearly every Dispensational evangelical because of your blatant disregard, your ignoring of 'the wrath to come' upon that generation that murdered Christ. It's like a Grand Canyon sized chasm in your theology. You're not just missing a piece of the puzzle, you've tossed half of it out.

The case being it makes a ton of difference in grasping the correct intent of the word 'sozo', ie, saved, delivered, rescued, etc. in many if not most contexts of scripture.

Tell me, WHAT was it that those 'devout Jews' at Pentecost were to 'save' themselves from?:

40 And with many other words he testified, and exhorted them, saying, Save yourselves from this crooked generation. Acts 2

 

so you believe there is death after the resurrection?

btw. John Owen I think wrote a book w the title
