BAPTIST Theology & Bible Study BS does mean other things, not all unlike some discussions here

Add our prayers to the family and mission for his loss

Interested in your concept of Christ "buying" all humanity, what exactly that entailed. Thanks

The woman who touched the hem of Jesus' garment had tried everything and spent all on doctors (sounds familiar). It was just a drop of Jesus' blood that was needed.

Would you start a new thread on this subject rather than derail the intent of this one? Thank you - sure many would like to study this important topic and it would be a blessing to have a dedicated thread.

The work of the holy Spirit of God to illuminate our thinking is a great mystery and even greater blessing!

While teaching Advanced Bible Doctrine at Pillsbury Baptist College 25 years ago, I quoted Gill. One of my students said it sounded like we would have been "good friends" in school together since our doctrinal views were so similar. I simply mentioned that he was in school a few years ahead of me.

Saving pennies on all the military "small brain thinking" will not impact a bloated budget much imho. Lots bigger fish to fry.

I tried to visit every church family either in their home or invited to ours/taken out to dinner (my wife was unable to have dinner in our home for a number of years, so her business paid for these dinners. Granted we had about 20 member families and 10 "part time" (Easter/Christmas type) so it...

For ANY college to maintain student enrollment today is a blessing. This is typical name change to both broaden appeal/base and to reflect the change in appeal/base Also, dropping "Baptist" (a pejorative term in the eyes of many today) is common.

From the list of schools, I would assume some tie in with SBC mentality?? And broadly evangelical but not fundamental or separatist. Wonder if others have first-hand knowledge?

I studied Baptist History and Polity from Dr Weeks at Pillsbury. Then in grad school Advanced polity and Advance distinctives. He was also my adviser on my Master's Thesis. The Trail of Blood (baptist successionist or Landmark nonsense) was not endorsed by Dr Weeks because of its many errors...

Brother - Would you start a new thread on "the correct understanding of Acts 19" and the distinctions of baptism of John and Christian baptism today? Think it would be helpful to many . . . and looks like a chance to voice varying views.

A little theologically confusing/repetitious. I'd work on the wording more. It is a good start. Example: "Jesus Christ Lord of all Creation, who lived, died, and rose again, who died on a cross, who, when he died, suffered the wages of the sins of all"

BTW, when my second son was to be married, the stationers that printed invitations had a fit with wording of the names/titles. She was a pastor's daughter; he is mine and Teresa's son and wife was an alternative health doctor Finally printed: The Reverend Pastor Theodore and Mrs Mary _______...

I call other clergy by name, not imaginary title. My wife calls me "the seldom right reverend" :)

Found many WANT baptism for more than its biblical purpose. I've led many trips to Holy Land and some want to be baptized again in the Jordan. Feel it is more memorable/meaningful. What is PURPOSE of baptism? A feel-good experience for the person? A mystical event? A part (subconscious) of...

Okay - I'll bite. WHICH "Rome"? Rome, New York Rome, Georgia Rome, Illinois Rome, Indiana Rome, Iowa Rome, Kentucky Rome, Maine Rome, Mississippi Rome, Missouri Rome, Ohio Rome, Oregon Rome, Pennsylvania Rome, Tennessee

Welcome to the friendly food fight. Feel free to "kindly" chime in on proper forums (for issues with translations, for mistaken ideas you have about Calvinism or the power of God to save :) ) We are careful with language - not just cussing, but we don't use words like "heretic" just because we...

Look forward to EACH of U2 having an account and getting to know you. Like Count Dracula, we're always looking for new blood. :) :) I've been hanging around the BB so long that EVERYONE here is "new".
