After conquering these Egyptian pagan gods in the 10 plagues and the crossing of the Red Sea, God then "ascends" to His rightful place on the summit of the Mountain of God! We see just how deep God plans recurring Midrashic themes from Genesis to Revelation that are revealed to us by the Holy Spirit in the 66 books of the Bible. A. Sinai to Canaan: 1. 1446 BC: AT SINAI: In the Exodus account, God "descends" upon Mt. Sinai on Pentecost in 1446 BC which explodes in fire at the summit and God "gives" supernatural ... In a messianic progression, the tabernacle went extinct as David completely reorganizes the country in military, civic and worship. Notably, in Amos 9:11, it is the Tabernacle of David, not the Tabernacle of Moses that will be restored by the Messiah as the church. Finally, after defeating his enemies and as the Ark of the Covenant, central to Ps 68:1 + Numbers 10:3-36, ascends Jerusalem, David offers gifts to God via sacrifice and David offers gifts of food to the people (2 ... ...

452: Inherited Sin: definitions and official creeds
Many Calvinists do not realize that it is logically impossible to accept three or four of the five points of Calvinism (TULIP).

Although entirely ... Repentance is as much a work as water baptism, but they invoke the "irresistible grace" doctrine and say that the Holy Spirit not only implanted saving faith, but also directly led them to also repent.

453: Extra-Biblical oral apostolic tradition does not exist today
... My friends, that is just not good enough. Greg Litmer Click to View Is Tradition a Source Of God's Revelation? The Catholic Church teaches that there are two sources of understanding God's revelation of His will.

454: Questions Pentecostals CANNOT answer!
Since the miracles in the NT were for the purpose of confirming the newly-revealed word (Mk. 16:20), what new revelation (i.e., not in the New Testament) is being confirmed by miracles today? If we cannot understand the bible alike, how are we to understand the confusion being generated by everyone claiming to speak under the influence of the Holy Spirit (1 Cor. 14:33)? If someone receives the Holy Spirit when they are saved or at baptism, why did the Samaritans, who were saved, in Acts 8 not yet have the Holy Spirit? Someone claiming to speak in tongues and heal, should also be able to drink deadly poison, be unaffected by the bites of poisonous snakes, and heal with 100% success. 1 Cor 13:8-13: Whether Paul intended it or not, one cannot walk away from this illustration, without thinking that God was telling the Corinthians that the spiritual gifts belonged to a "childhood" stage in the church. Hence, spiritual gifts are not a sign of "spiritual elitism", rather they infer that ... ...

455: Is Church Membership Essential to my salvation?
Peter answered them, saying ". . . 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" Acts 2:38. As a result of these teachings, Acts 2:41 records, "Then they that gladly received his word were baptized: and the same day there were added unto them about three thousand souls".

476: How to Pray Acceptably
Also, the words "thy kingdom come" were given in a setting that preceded the coming of the church or the kingdom (Matthew 16: 18,19). The kingdom for which they were taught to pray did come in their lifetime (Mark 9: 1). We must always pray in accordance with God's revealed will (I John 5: 14,15). We must live in union with him (John 15: 7). The entire godhead is involved in our prayers. Our petitions are to the Father (Matthew 6: 9), through the name of Christ, who is our mediator (I Timothy 2: 5; Acts 4: 12), and with the help of the Holy Spirit (Romans 8: 26). Just as baptism is in the name of the Father, Son and Holy Spirit, so expressing in Jesus name ... our great high priest who intercedes for us. This great spiritual privilege of prayer makes Christians the salt of the earth, as they pray for civil leaders (Romans 13: 1ff). God's prayer warriors are to be at their posts constantly as a great deterrent to evil in this present world. Click Your Choice Go To Start: WWW.BIBLE.CA ...

477: Gospel Meetings: The Edification vs. The Evangelistic types
... One, the edification meeting, is for the edification of the members and the other, the evangelistic meeting, is for recruiting new members. Both are equally important to any church. Our traditional gospel meetings are actually a hybrid of the two. Yet, I do not believe it is possible to successfully combine the two into one ... The best example of this kind of meeting is what we call a lectureship. Subjects are meaty and designed to address the needs of mature Christians. The book of Romans or The Work of the Holy Spirit are typical choices. We, therefore, never advertise these meetings to the general public but only to neighboring churches. In our meetings, ... The ultimate purpose is to motivate the visitors to examine themselves in light of the gospel and to get them to return the following Sunday or be willing to study one-on-one.
