Well, the next thing I will be asked to undergo is a lie detector test. INCOMING! :smilewinkgrin:

I assure you, that story indeed happened. We have no reason to believe he was lying. :thumbs:

Dear Amy, Around 26 years ago, a missionary whom our church supported gave a testimony in our local church. He was a Filipino from Metro Manila, Philippines and he narrated his unforgettable experience when he visited some Ifugao tribesmen, around more than 250 miles up north. He said that...

Hi Plain n Simple :smilewinkgrin: To you, to smite means to injure or slay. (Webster? :laugh:) To us, to smite means to slap (ῥαπίζει, transliterated rapizei -- Greek!) Does the English interpret the Greek, or should the Greek clarify the English? Checkmate. :smilewinkgrin:

Hi Plain n Simple :smilewinkgrin: Haha, I guess you got checkmated there by John of Japan! The issue is--does Matthew 5:39 talk of a life-threatening situation? If it does not talk of such, then your whole case crumbles like a stale cookie. The Greek of strike is "SLAP" which the NASB...

Hi Plain n Simple :smilewinkgrin: Now I make a New Testament move: John Gill, in his Gill's exposition of the Bible states, "But I say unto you, that ye resist not evil,.... This is not to be understood of any sort of evil, not of the evil of sin, of bad actions, and false doctrines, which...

Dear Righteous Dude, 1. The Baptism of the Holy Ghost referred to by Plain N Simple and the majority of Pentecostals is a secondary experience. By implication, if you haven't experienced it, you're kinda a second-class Christian (those who have it, those who haven't). But Christ makes us...

Hi Plain and Simple :smilewinkgrin: 1st Corinthians 12:13 says, "For we were all baptized by one Spirit into one body--whether Jews or Greeks, slave or free--and we were all given the one Spirit to drink." The Bible teaches that there is only one baptism of the Holy Spirit, and that...

Hello Plain n Simple, :smilewinkgrin: Again, speaking of "You shall not murder" from Exodus 20:13, THE Rev. MATTHEW HENRY says, " The sixth commandment requires that we regard the life and the safety of others as we do our own. Magistrates and their officers, and witnesses testifying the...

Hello Plain n Simple :smilewinkgrin: Our beliefs are different because... 1. Our beliefs are Baptist. 2. Your beliefs are Pentecostal. (Your avatar is that of Smith Wigglesworth. Smith Wigglesworth is a hero of Pentecostalism. Therefore you admire Pentecostalism. Therefore your...

Hello Plain n Simple :smilewinkgrin: If you guys in church are not speaking foreign languages, then it is not speaking in tongues. :thumbsup:

Hi Plain n Simple! :smilewinkgrin: John Wesley in Wesley's Notes, speaking of Exodus 20:13, "Thou shalt not kill"... "20:13 Thou shalt not kill - Thou shalt not do any thing hurtful to the health, or life of thy own body, or any other's. This doth not forbid our own necessary defence, or...

Hi Plain n Simple :smilewinkgrin: Here's my next move, an "Old Testament" verse (which is still very much in effect and strengthened by Jesus in the New Testament)... :thumbsup: Exodus 20:13, "You shall not murder." In this corner, John Gill (23 November 1697 – 14 October 1771) English...

Dear Mr. Pentecostal Doctrine Lover, You may LOL whenever you want and wherever you want. Jesus does not contradict himself. Your best move was to prove that the verse that I cited did not advocate self-defense. I am not going to reveal to you my other verses, because i am just going to...

A checkmate is a checkmate. I do not need to slay you, just to checkmate you. :smilewinkgrin: And I repeat: Wigglesworth is a dyed-in-the-wool Pentecostal. Okay, here's my opening move: Luke 22:36, "He said to them, "But now if you have a purse, take it, and also a bag; and if you don't...

Haha, I just checkmated you! You have been reading Smith Wigglesworth's books and you are not aware he is pentecostal? If you were not aware of it--then you are aware of it right now! You don't care if he is pentecostal? I advise you to read John MacArthur's CHARISMATIC CHAOS. :smilewinkgrin:

LOL, please do not change the topic. You earlier said that you did not read pentecostal doctrine. I then said that you read such doctrine because Smith Wigglesworth is a dyed-in-the-wool pentecostal. Question 1: Is Wigglesworth a pentecostal or not? If he is, then I have just disproven...

You have never read their doctrine? You are showing your naivete. Smith Wigglesworth is a dyed-in-the-wool pentecostal and he and his writings are held in high regard by today's pentecostals (who a lot of them have drifted from sound biblical teaching). You may LOL whenever you want and...

You read him because you heard he did miracles? Haven't you HEARD of Galatians 1:8? www.deceptioninthechurch.com says of Wigglesworth, "In spite of his teaching that God promises perfect physical wholeness and that the Christian can operate in the same sign gifts that Christ exhibited, very...
