352: Indwelling of the Holy Spirit
The false doctrine of the "measures of the Holy Spirit" is also the foundation upon which the false personal non-miraculous indwelling of the Holy Spirit rests. b. This notion of limiting the "Baptism of the Holy Spirit" to the apostles ONLY was a false theology developed last century to refute modern day Pentecostals and Charismatics who claim to have miraculous power of the Holy Spirit like the first century church.

355: The Ignatian Forgeries: They claim to be written by Ignatius ...
... Wherever the bishop shall appear, there let the multitude [of the people] also be; even as, wherever Jesus Christ is, there is the Catholic Church. It is not lawful without the bishop either to baptize or to celebrate a love-feast; but whatsoever he shall approve of, that is also pleasing to God, so that everything that is done may be secure and valid. (The Epistle of Ignatius to the Smyrnaeans, Chapter VIII.-Let Nothing Be Done Without the Bishop.) Having said this, the Ignatian letters do represent real history for the dates they were actually written. Forgeries yes, but even the forgeries prove that there was no one bishop over the church universal. The first 8 letters of Ignatius do provide insights into what a the 4th-5th century author wished Ignatius had said in support of the authors current setting. The 7 letters of Ignatius being written probably around 250 AD, likewise give an insight into what was going on in 250 AD. We therefore date the 8 letters of Ignatius at 300-500 AD ... ...

361: Official creed of the Evangelical church

It is, however, a participation in Christ (1 Corinthians 10:14-17), and God blesses faithful participation in the Lord's Supper (1 Corinthians 10:16-17), and disciplines faithlessness in it (1 Corinthians 11:30). We believe baptism in water and the Lord's Supper to be external signs of internal, spiritual and historical realities. We deny that they are automatic means of blessing. Grace comes to us through faith alone. Any biblical means to build biblical faith is therefore a means of blessing and grace - including water baptism and the Lord's Supper. We believe the sign gifts which were apparent in the first century church were not given as a normative pattern for subsequent generations (1 Corinthians 13:8-13). We deny that a church must manifest such gifts in order to please God in worship (1 Corinthians 14:20-22). We believe that Christians must fellowship in unity with all true Christians, and that we have no right to judge the hearts of fellow servants. If God has accepted ... ...

For this reason it has no place in the Liberal Protestantism of today.

364: When & Where Did The New Testament Church Begin?
... The church set forth in the New Testament rests upon seven cardinal principles: the death of Christ the resurrection of Christ the ascension of Christ the sending of the Holy Spirit by Christ baptism by His authority baptism "into the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Ghost for the remission of sins" salvation in the name of Christ. Apart from these foundation stones, there could be no New Testament church. We ask, then, when and where were these foundation stones laid? A few months before His death, Jesus said, "Upon this rock I will build my church" (Matthew 16:18). He spoke of some future occasion, but, after the first feast of the Jewish Pentecost following His resurrection, the church was always spoken of as being in existence. Thus, the church had its beginning between the time that Jesus promised to build it and the close of that next Pentecost day. The second Chapter of Acts reveals for the first time all seven of the aforementioned cardinal facts. Speaking at ... ...

Not one of them is in the Hebrew language, which was alone used by the inspired historians and poets of the Old Testament. Not one of the writers lays any claim to inspiration.

Recent scholarship, while denying to him the authorship of the Pentateuch and the extremely complicated legal provisions of the Law (the Torah), has vindicated his place of highest honor in the early history of Israel. He was a creative personality of the first order. Unfortunately the exact details of his work are shrouded from us in tradition. The story of Moses has come down to us in the narratives (known to scholars as J and E) intertwined in Exodus and Numbers. The written forms of these traditions dates from three or four hundred years after his time (Man's Religion, John B.

Carlton sounds like the Bible-trashing, liberal theologians who see the Bible as the product of human effort. The Holy Spirit directly revealed the names to Paul. And notice just how insignificant an example Carlton can find: The mere names of two men. The Bible is full of stories, like the woman at the well, in Jn 4 or the eunuch in Acts 8, whose names we do not know. Many people in the first century knew the names of these two people, but makes no difference to our faith if we do not know. The Holy Spirit never told us for sure, who wrote some of the books of the Bible like Hebrews, and many of the Old Testament books. That's because it doesn't matter.

Think about it, only after God destroys the Jewish religion, do the Jews get a fixed canon.

388: Why Are There So Many Different Churches?
Jesus did not say that He would build his churches, but rather simply that He would build His church. Listen to the passage again. "Upon this rock, I will build My church, and the gates of Hell shall not prevail against IT." Again in the book of Ephesians, the Apostle Paul wrote, "That the church is the body of Christ, and that there is only one body." Ephesians 1:22,23 & 4:4-6. A simple reading of the New Testament reveals that in bible times, there was only one church, and that all faithful Christians were a part of that one great body of believers (I Corinthians 12:12-13). Although the term churches is occasionally used in the New Testament to refer to a plurality of individual congregations in different locations, such as the seven churches of Asia (Revelations 2:3). The Bible is quick to point out that the same doctrine was preached in all of them (I Corinthians 4:17).
