    Lämmchen's Workout Thread

    We only got in 2 miles and back to the vehicle before the rains started. And then it was mostly rain for the rest of the day! Did you get the thunderstorms last night too? It was really odd because the thunder sounded like jet planes going over the house, such an unusual noise it made. Power...

    World BBC Manipulated People!

    The truth has finally come out and the BBC Director and UK News Chief have both resigned after it's been revealed that they purposely edited a video of Trump from January 6 to try to manipulate people into believing Trump was calling for an insurrection! I watched as Trump gave his speech live...

    The promise of the Holy Spirit

    There was a water cleansing ritual in the Old Testament that was a foreshadowing of our baptism. You keep focusing on "water" instead of God's promise that He attaches to those waters. Jesus instituted baptism and told the disciples how to make disciples...by baptising and teaching. If baptism...

    The promise of the Holy Spirit

    This was the prototype of our own baptism, with the receiving of the Holy Spirit: The baptism of Jesus. "And after being baptized, Jesus went up immediately from the water; and behold, the heavens were opened, and he saw the Spirit of God descending as a dove, [and] coming upon Him," (Matthew...

    We have been doing 3 and 4 mile hikes lately, trying to boost things up before winter comes.

    Jesus instituted baptism. It will never be empty or useless.

    The promise of the Holy Spirit

    Acts 2:38 states very clearly that in baptism we receive the gift of the Holy Spirit. I encourage you to re-read what I've written above about the Holy Spirit entering man when he comes to faith. I think you missed that portion of my post. And you've mentioned again about looking to people...

    The promise of the Holy Spirit

    I'll post some early church father quotes tomorrow when I get a chance. But this movement of having a separate baptism later on is more of a modern thing. It's not what the early church believed. The disciples believed in one baptism and it consisted of water and the receiving of the Holy...

    The promise of the Holy Spirit

    The early church fathers did not believe in two baptisms. The Holy Spirit comes with faith, and that can be before baptism, but there is only one baptism.

    The promise of the Holy Spirit

    Wasn't the point in unity that all believe that Jesus died for their forgiveness of sins? The Savior was for all and so was the gift of the Holy Spirit in baptism. No matter what other minor things the early church members believed, they all had that in common.

    The basics of Christian theology

    It's also the Holy Spirit that works within us. We aren't alone in our walk. Yes, we resist Him, but He'll keep pushing (at His speed, not man's).

    The promise of the Holy Spirit

    You could look at the history of the Samaritans and the Jews. There was a lot of hatred between them, and this brought a unity that Christianity does to make us all brothers and sisters in Christ.

    The promise of the Holy Spirit

    I explained one reason for the delay in the book of Acts. It was God's way of showing the Jews that baptism wasn't just for them. It gave them absolute proof that it was for the entire world, and for their children too. Since you said you were brought up Lutheran, then you should also know...

    The promise of the Holy Spirit

    I've read that it was necessary to happen in that manner so that the Jews could see that baptism wasn't just for them. Baptism is God's work, that's the point of Acts 2:38. Look at all the promises He makes that occur in our baptism. You bring up something I don't witness, being a Lutheran...
