You can lie to yourself if you want to...

You mean "Love one another"? That may be a new command, but also not new. 2 John 1:5 (KJV) And now I beseech thee, lady, not as though I wrote a new commandment unto thee, but that which we had from the beginning, that we love one another. 1 John 2:8 (KJV) Again, a new commandment I write...

It's not the ignoring that makes you a hypocrite. It's pretending to ignore by answering a post indirectly. Thanks for actually replying directly this time.

And you're a hypocrite, too, pretending to be ignoring my posts and trying to make it look like a general reply...

By which you admit that the BOC did speak in tongues at one time, countering your previous post. Which emphasizes that lack of discernment.

1 Corinthians 12:10 (KJV) To another the working of miracles; to another prophecy; to another discerning of spirits; to another [divers] kinds of tongues; to another the interpretation of tongues: I guess you're saying you also don't have any discernment of spirits. And I'm finally in agreement...

Yes. About the sameness of the message whether he or the other apostles preached it.

Not according to Paul. 1 Corinthians 15:1 (KJV) Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand; Unless you want to make up your own scripture.

Except Paul said they preached the same gospel. 1 Corinthians 15:9-11 (KJV) 9 For I am the least of the apostles, that am not meet to be called an apostle, because I persecuted the church of God. 10 But by the grace of God I am what I am: and his grace which [was bestowed] upon me was not in...

They were. Look at how many Gentiles were allowed into the kingdom through Paul's use of the keys. How is that precluded by Jesus's teaching? Again, how is that precluded? And?

Good topic! I think Peter also used the keys when he went to Cornelius.

Yet both happened. They aren't mutually exclusive.

All references to people as sheep are analogical. Because people aren't really sheep. But why do you think it necessary to discount the actual words of Paul from Luke, while promoting words of Paul from Paul? Are you saying Luke wasn't accurately recording Paul's words?

Even by your own theology, that didn't have to happen. But the "not my people " passages would apply. Hosea 1:9 (KJV) Then said [God], Call his name Loammi: for ye [are] not my people, and I will not be your [God]. Hosea 2:23 (KJV) And I will sow her unto me in the earth; and I will have...

I was hoping you'd review your sentence structure and see if something didn't turn out as you expected Ah! I see. You have to have some of the koolaid before you can understand the koolaid. Sounds like Calvinism. No problem with any of that. Luke wrote Paul's words. If Paul's letters were...

I don't understand what you're trying to say here. It's "clearly" to you, because you've swallowed the koolaid. Luke was writing to some guy named Theophilus, but you have no idea when he was writing compared to when Paul started preaching. And you only know that because of Luke. SO why won't...

How do you know Luke was a kingdom believer? Are you suggesting Ananias was saved into the BOC? And what exactly did he leave us and through whom? In calling upon Ananias to add to Paul's witness, you have to go through Luke.

I like your suggestion. But I'm amazed that you think there are multiple "plans of salvation". So here's what you would have: The gospel includes the grace of God. Acts 20:24 (KJV) But none of these things move me, neither count I my life dear unto myself, so that I might finish my course with...

Can you explain the difference? So you're saying that Paul's gospel tells the Jews they gain liberty through it, but they still have to obey every bit of the law--even the parts Paul said were not in force anymore? Because every time someone uses the non-Pauline parts of the Bible for...

Don't we love to do what God tells us to do? Even if we fail at it? Whatever kingdom of God's that we happen to end up in, won't we thrill to do His will? "On earth as it is in heaven"?
