Christian/Muslim ThreadsTrinity ~ God is One not 3! :: Re: Reply to OmegaRe: Reply to Omega
Here is the very root of trinitarianism that proves it denies Jesus Christ. According to your admission above the shared name of God is "Yahweh" or "Jehovah". This is what the cults of Nation of Yahweh and Jehovah Witnesses do - they, like you deny His Name. What I have been proclaiming all along is the only shared name of God is "Jesus". This is the root difference between what trinitarians believe and what Oneness Apostolics believe. So according to you, Omega, even if one does decide to be baptized then they are to be baptized into the name(s) of "Yahweh" or "Jehovah". When all along I have said the only name to be baptized in is "Jesus". There is no other name whereby we must be saved! (Acts 4:12). And because I have proclaimed baptism in the name of Jesus according to Acts 2:38 you said 'that it clearly demonstrates that I have been overpowered by false spiritual seduction'. Therefore, what you are saying by your own admission above is the name of Jesus is irrelevant. And the names of "Yahweh" or "Jehovah" are more important and higher than the name of "Jesus". But God's Word says otherwise, "Wherefore God has highly exalted Him, and given Him a name WHICH IS ABOVE EVERY NAME" (Phil 2:9). Furthermore, whatever we do in word or deed we are to do all in the name of Jesus (Col 3:17) which would include water baptism. Like I stated before the names "Yahweh" and "Jehovah" are guess names at best and the names of demons at worst. According to you, Peter in Acts 2:38 was overpowered by seducing spirits when he procalimed, "Repent and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins and you shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost". And all others according to you who obeyed Peter's proclamation were deceived. You have said that I have spoken all manner of evil against the Body of Christ. On the contrary, I have spoken to the Body of Christ to wake up out of slumber and awaken to their true heritage in Jesus Christ. How dare you say I make a mockery of my dear and glorious Jesus! I never said or implied the precious blood of Jesus cannot save. I only said the blood must by applied by obedience of faith to the plan of salvation according to Acts 2:38. And for you to say that 'if water baptism is essential to salvation then when Jesus baptized Himself needed to do so in order to receive salvation' is laughable. Like I said, Jesus was only submitting Himself to the baptism of John to "fulfill all righteousness" under the Old Testament era. That is why John the Baptist said to Jesus, "I have need to be baptized of thee". Because John understood that Jesus would later baptize the Church with the Holy Ghost and with fire which is what exactly happened in Acts chapter 2. And if John the Baptist would have lived he would have been there in that upper room with the others when the Holy Ghost was first poured out. You also pointed out that Scriptures state speaking in tongues is the least of the "gifts" and that "love" is the greatest. First of all "love" is not a "gift" but a fruit of the Spirit. And you have confused the "gift" of tongues with interpretation with the evidence of Spirit baptism. Just as there is a "gift" of faith which is a special operation of the Spirit when the need arises but separate from personal faith that every Believer is required to exercise. The spirit of the Pharicee is what has a hold of you to speak so much against the name of Jesus. Because you, like the Sanhedrin who said to Peter and the other Apostles when they were dragged in before them said, "Did we straitly command you that ye should not teach in this name?" (Acts 5:28). And as Peter answered them so I answer you, 'I ought to obey God rather than men' - no I will not stop teaching in His name. |
