366: Questions Pentecostals CANNOT answer!
Acts 2:4-11 teaches that when men spoke in tongues (i.e., "as the Spirit gave the utterance"), they spoke actual, understandable human languages, why believe that any other cases of tongue speaking were in languages which could not be understood (e.g., Acts 10:46, 19:6, 1 Cor. 12-14)? Since all examples of miracles in the NT were definitive and clearly visible signs, wonders and powers [review them all to verify this], why apply the word miracle (in the biblical sense) to things that clearly do not fit that description today? God acts in the affairs of men today, but if these actions qualified as NT miracles, they would be impossible to deny (Jn. 11:47-53, Acts 4:13-22). 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 ... ...

371: Sola Scriptura and the Apostolic Fathers: 400 AD: Jerome
Do you demand Scripture proof? You may find it in the Acts of the Apostles. And even if it did not rest on the authority of Scripture the consensus of the whole world in this respect would have the force of a command. For many other observances of the Churches, which are due to tradition, have acquired the authority of the written law, as for instance the practice of dipping the head three times in the layer, and then, after leaving the water, of tasting mingled milk and honey in representation of infancy; and, again, the practices of standing up in worship on the Lord's day, and ceasing from fasting every Pentecost; and there are many other unwritten practices which ... And no one in the modern Roman Catholic or Orthodox church today does so either!

Master index of 25 studies: "Determine your salvation" Lesson 14 Must We Be Baptized For The Forgiveness Of Our Sins? In the second chapter of Acts, Peter had convicted the people there of having killed the Son of God. In verse 37 their question was, "Men and brethren what shall we do?"

Here people were told to repent and be baptized for the remission of their sins. Only when we submit to baptism as the ... The Bible says that "baptism does now also save us," but men say that "baptism does not save us." This is very similar to the situation of Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden. God in Genesis 2:17 told them not to eat of the tree of knowledge of good and evil, "For in the day that you eat of it you shall surely die."

375: Messianic Bible Prophecy Fulfilled: 2 Samuel 7:14
Zechariah 6:12-13 is the first prophecy that indicates 2 Sam 7 has a dual fulfillment. b. Acts 2:29-31 and Heb 1:5 directly applies this to Jesus. 3. Acts 2:29-31 partially fulfils two of the six prediction in 2 Sam 7 by stating that Jesus was both a son of David and is a King. a. Even so, the text quoted in Acts by Peter only indirectly references 2 Sam 7. The primary messianic prophecies were Ps 132:11 and Ps 89:3f because they reference an "oath" and 2 Sam 7 does not mention any oath. 4. Heb 1:5 partially fulfils 2 Sam 7 a third prediction by stating the Father/Son relationship between God and Christ. 5. We must infer through Midrashic interpretation, that Jesus also built the temple of God. a. No New Testament passage states that Jesus was the builder of the temple. i. In John 2:18-22 Jesus said "I will raise it [the temple] up" on resurrection day. This is the verse Christians use to prove the deity of Christ because Jesus raised himself from the dead.

to the scriptures; and that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures". The doctrine was the death, burial and resurrection of Jesus. One cannot obey the facts of the gospel, but one can obey a form of his death, burial and resurrection. When one has come to believe that Jesus is God's son and the saviour of man from his sins, he being moved by faith to repent of his sins, that is, he determines to discontinue to live in sin, he being willing to confess that faith in Christ as beina God's son is a proper subject to be buried in baptism for the remission of sins, then raised a new creature. In Acts Chapter 2, the Apostle Peter talking to the ones in sin told them they had crucified the Son of God. They were concerned about their condition, thereby showing faith. They asked in Acts Chapter 2, verse 37, "Men and brethren, what shall we do?". In verse 38, "Then Peter said unto them, 'Repent and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus ... ...

386: Lesson 20: Preaching In Worship
Jesus says in John 5:32, "And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free." Only by believing and obeying the truth can we be made free from sin. But what is the truth? Jesus says in John 17:17, "Sanctify them by your truth, your word is truth." The word of God is the only truth that will make us free so we can go to heaven. The word of men cannot make us free, but will cause us to be lost. All things preached must come from the word of God. We are told in 1 Peter 4:11, "If anyone speaks, let him speak as the oracles of God." The pulpits of our land ring out with what speakers personally think and believe. But how do we know whether a preacher is preaching from God's word or from his own opinion? We must do as the church at Berea did concerning the apostle Paul's preaching in Acts 17:11, they "searched the scriptures daily to find out whether these things were so." But many men today, as they did in the first century, are preaching a perverted gospel. In Galatians 1:6-8 ... ...

This memorial of our Lord is called "the Lord's Supper" in 1 Corinthians 11:20 and "the Lord's table" in 1 Corinthians 10:21. In 1 Corinthians 10:16 it is referred as "the breaking of bread" and "communion". But the church in the first century met every first day of the week to observe the Lord's Supper. We are told in Acts 20:7, "Now on the first day of the week, when the disciples came together to break bread, Paul, ready to depart the next day, spoke to them and continued his message until midnight." Why ... We also read in Acts 2:42 concerning the church at Jerusalem, "And they continued steadfastly in the apostles' doctrine and fellowship, in breaking of bread and in prayers." Again we see the first century church was steadfast or regular in the breaking of bread which is their observance of the Lord's Supper.

392: Is it OK that My church doesn't have Communion every Sunday?
And the cup in like manner after supper saying, This cup is the new covenant in my blood, even that which is poured out for you". Jesus was instituting a completely new memorial, not one like the Passover looking back to Egypt, but one in remembrance of him, of his death and of the new covenant he was bringing to men. "As often as you do this" indicates that it was not a single isolated incident, but was to be observed with regularity. Since he did not indicate when or how often the memorial was to be observed, we must look further to the record of the apostles, who received the Holy Spirit to instruct and guide them into all truth. What the church did under the direction of the apostles must have been God's will. Let us look then at the record.

Jesus said that such people would in fact strongly claim to be following him, and would be doing great work in His name (Matthew 7!22).

It was not long after the days of the Apostles that these prophecies began to be fulfilled. First one item then another was altered to fit the times.
