Adultery and the Bible Adultery and the Bible The seventh of the Ten Commandments, which God spake in the long ago, "Thou shalt not commit adultery" Exodus 20:14. This has always been God's law. We are told in I John 3:4, that sin is the transgression of God's law, therefore, to commit adultery is to transgress God's law, and therefore, sin.

Lesson 20: Infants Are Not Lost We now turn our attention to another perversion of God's word and that is infants are born sinners and must be baptized in order to be saved. This contradicts God's word. In Ezekiel 18:20 we read, "The soul who sins shall die. The son shall not bear the guilt of the father, nor shall the father bear the guilt of the son." Here God is telling us that children do not inherit sin from their parents, grandparents, or any of their forefathers, all the way back to Adam. It says "The son shall not bear the guilt of the ... Little children are not lost, but are safe until they become accountable. One error leads to another. Men say that since infants have inherited the sin of Adam, that they must be baptized or they will be lost. This is also false. Infants are not suitable candidates for baptism, since they cannot believe. Our Lord says in Mark 16:16, "He who believes and is baptized will be saved."

Lesson 12: Confessing Christ Confessing Christ Jesus wants us to confess Him before men. In Matthew 10:32-33 he says, "Therefore whoever confesses Me before men, him I will also confess before My Father who is in heaven. But whoever denies Me before men, him I will also deny before my Father who is in heaven." If we deny Christ we are going to be lost. We must not be ashamed to confess to other people that we believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God. Jesus says in Mark 8:38, "For whoever is ashamed of Me and My words in this adulterous and sinful generation, of him the Son of Man also will be ashamed when he comes in the glory of His Father with the holy angels." If He is ashamed of us, that means that we are going to be lost. There are several examples of people confessing their faith in Christ in the Bible.

Trinity proof texts: John 19:7 This argument is so outrageous and desperate, we have awarded it the "STINC" trophy. The term "made himself out to be" means, "this is how Jesus described himself", not that he was self appointed. There is no way to make the expression "made himself out to be" to have any connection with self appointment. Jehovah's Witnesses would have us believe that the Jews would stone Jesus because he claimed to appoint Himself the Son of God, but would not stone him if God appointed him the Son of God. Utterly Ridiculous! Jehovah's Witnesses would have us believe that the Jews did not take issue with the fact that Jesus was the "Son of God", it was merely a question of if God had called him "Son of God". Utterly Unbelievable! Since the term "sons of God" is used 5 times in the Old Testament of created, non-divine beings, all Jesus had to was say, "Hey, I am not God, I am a creature, just like you".

Lesson 23: Summary of Worshipping in Spirit and Truth The purpose of our worship is to glorify God. Our worship to God is very important. If we expect to please God, so we can go to heaven when this life is over, we "must worship Him in spirit and in truth." Worship requires that we be an active participant and not a spectator. We must not pervert the worship of God by our being entertained by choirs, concerts, and other entertainment groups. Our worship is to be holy and sacred, because it is God we are suppose to be worshipping. We must approach God with humility and godly fear in showing Him reverence and respect by worshipping Him in the way He has specified in the Bible. ... If our worship to God is vain we will loose our souls. We will not be able to go to heaven, but we will have to spend forever and ever in eternal punishment.
