Explain your ignorance about truth. Do it in one sentence.
Hey, LA, are you still in the "Prediction business?" Do you still stand by your prediction about my imminent demise by beheading?
You predicted my demise a few years ago and it still hasn't come to fruition? I might have to demand my money back or take you to Small claims court.
Is there an expiration date on that prediction?
Is there an expiration date on that prediction?
LA, do you care to debate this thread?
Back to the subject at hand. There is ONLY one Gospel for today and that is the Grace Gospel that was given to the Apostle Paul to preach to the Gentiles about 2000 years ago. That same Gospel is upheld today and is open to both Jew and Gentile alike.
Paul explained much of the original gospel first received by the Church of Pentecost.
There is only one Gospel of Christ. Paul did not introduce a new Gospel, for he was saved by the original gospel and preached the same as did Peter--
Act 2:38 Then Peter said unto them, 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.
Act 2:39 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.
Act 2:40 And with many other words did he testify and exhort, saying, Save yourselves from this untoward generation.
Act 2:41 Then they that gladly received his word were baptized: and the same day there were added unto them about three thousand souls.
Act 2:42 And they continued stedfastly in the apostles' doctrine and fellowship, and in breaking of bread, and in prayers.
Act 2:43 And fear came upon every soul: and many wonders and signs were done by the apostles.
Act 2:44 And all that believed were together, and had all things common;
Act 2:45 And sold their possessions and goods, and parted them to all men, as every man had need.
Act 2:46 And they, continuing daily with one accord in the temple, and breaking bread from house to house, did eat their meat with gladness and singleness of heart,
Act 2:47 Praising God, and having favour with all the people. And the Lord added to the church daily such as should be saved.
Act 19:1 And it came to pass, that, while Apollos was at Corinth, Paul having passed through the upper coasts came to Ephesus: and finding certain disciples,
Act 19:2 He said unto them, Have ye received the Holy Ghost since ye believed? And they said unto him, We have not so much as heard whether there be any Holy Ghost.
Act 19:3 And he said unto them, Unto what then were ye baptized? And they said, Unto John's baptism.
Act 19:4 Then said Paul, John verily baptized with the baptism of repentance, saying unto the people, that they should believe on him which should come after him, that is, on Christ Jesus.
Act 19:5 When they heard this, they were baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus.
Act 19:6 And when Paul had laid his hands upon them, the Holy Ghost came on them; and they spake with tongues, and prophesied.

Faith plus works to Israel including the law is not the righteousness of God without the law that Paul preached, LA.

2 Thessalonians 2:10 And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved.

Anyone who posts Acts 2:38 KJV as to us does not know what is the gospel of the grace of God.

Your testimony is that you believe not and are blinded (2 Corinthians 4:3-4 KJV).

Paul did not preach baptism for the remission of sins (Acts 2:38 KJV) looking forward to the blotting out of sins in the future (Acts 3:19-21 KJV) as Peter did.
Paul preached the good news by which we are saved; that Christ died for our sins and that He was buried and rose again the third day (1 Corinthians 15:1-4 KJV) and that we have now received the atonement (Romans 5:11 KJV).
You cannot make those the same no matter how hard you try.

Show where Peter preached "that Christ died for our sins" as the good news of Pentecost. We've been waiting for you to do so for years and we're still waiting.

She's spoiled Colossians 2:8 KJV
Adam did exactly as God predestined - according to you doctrine - and COULD NOT HAVE DONE OTHERWISE.
Do you intentionally contradict yourself or do you say such things and not notice the conflict between them?
Is it when two truth claims contradict one another that they become "profound truths"?
That's a serious question, by the way. To most people reading this, those last two questions will seem rhetorical in that they appear to answer themselves. And while I think I could guess your answer, I don't think I'd bet my house on my guess being right.

I have often posted in that way because I have always been aware on a first name basis with other MADs (way before I ever even heard of TOL) that there are MADs out there who's understanding in some areas is different from my own, and visa versa, and out of respect for them, I have never wanted to make it appear that the views I hold represent all MADs.
I care about that kind of thing. We each should.
I have not found that in the arrogance of some TOL MADs; some of which in fact assert they alone are right.
This has nothing to do with viewing other MADs as step children, or what have you.
:doh:
Perfect Scripture for this subject.

But 2P2P is still 2P2P. The mistake of thinking the accounts in the gospels or Acts are as final as the doctrinal treatments of the Letters is still there.
Perhaps LA is waiting until the last of the TOLers leaves this world before she answers? Of course, that's assuming she happens to outlive the rest? She might just do that.
