Almost Persuaded, to be Christian, but now it is too late!!! Almost Persuaded To Be A Christian... But now its too late The confusion of our time over the meaning, requirements, and rewards of being a Christian can only be overcome by a return to the New Testament pattern. Christianity as intended by God is not a matter of satisfying ourselves, or merely being religious, but rather of satisfying God's will through Jesus Christ. To be a Christian means to become like Christ in our surrender to the will of God. Let's look at the example of a man in the Bible, Agrippa, by name, who was almost persuaded to be a Christian. His story is found in Acts Chapter 26. Paul the apostle had been arrested in Jerusalem and taken to Caesarea for trial. A new Roman governor, Festus, came into office, and invited the Jewish king, Agrippa, to help in Paul's trial. Agrippa had heard a great deal about Paul and Christianity, and was glad to listen to what Paul had to say. It seems strange to us that Paul did not try to defend himself, or beg to be set free, but ... ... https://www.bible.ca/g-almost-persuaded.htm

Please explain why we have Old And New Testaments? A great deal of the religious division and confusion in the world today is caused by general lack of knowledge about the purpose and intent of the two major divisions of the Bible, the old and the new testaments. The Old Testament is revelation and law from God covering about the time from the creation of the earth to the time of Jesus' death on the cross. The New Testament is revelation and law from God covering about the time from Jesus' birth to His (future) second coming. It tells us that His Son, Jesus, came, lived, died, and arose so that believers on Jesus as the Christ might have eternal life. The New Testament also tells us, by both command and recorded example how we are to worship God today. The two portionscf God's will are so closely related it can be said about them that the Old is the New concealed and the New is the Old revealed. The Old Testament was preparatory, temporary, and limited. The New is complete, eternal, and universal. The Old Testament promised a New ... ... https://www.bible.ca/b-Why-OT-NT.htm

The early use of "nomina sacra" indicates a canon was recognized Nomina sacra developed into the Christian era and became almost ridiculous because they would create substitutional abbreviations for other "sacred" things including: God, Father, Son, Holy Spirit, Saviour, Cross, Christ etc. While Christians eventually abandoned the practice of nomina sacra altogether, the Jews continue the practice by writing the word God in English as G-D where a dash is substituted for the letter O. Of course the ultimate substitution was provided by the Holy Spirit himself in the 27 books of the New Testament that consistently substitute KURIOS (Greek for "Lord") for YHWH in all Old Testament quotations in the New Testament.

Is Jesus an actual or mythical Historical person? History is a realm open to rational investigation. It is distinguished from the area of myth, fiction, and subjective experience. Jesus in history means that Jesus lived, died, and rose again in a part of our world which can be located on a map and in a time that can be placed on a calendar. The New Testament insists on the fact that the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus Christ belong to the category of objective history and not to that of an inner experience. Jesus in history is so important, that His coming divides history into two periods: B.C. and A.D. The wonder and grandeur of Jesus of Nazareth is that He is the Son, who came into the world made through Him, not for His benefit, but for ours: "In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.

The New Testament book called James has much to say on the subject of faith and works. For example: "Even so faith, if it hath not works, is dead, being alone" James 2: 17. Misunderstood possibly as much as any other part of the Bible doctrine is the essentiality of good works to salvation. People confuse the good works of the gospel which ... The law of Moses is dead and its works mean nothing today, but the works of the gospel mean much. A person is saved by the blood of Christ, through the grace of God. He is not saved by faith alone, but through obedience to the commandments of Christ. Jesus became "the author of eternal salvation unto all them that obey him" Hebrews 5: 9. This does not mean that the obedient soul earns, merits, or deserves salvation, but that he qualifies for the mercy and ... ... https://www.bible.ca/g-faith-only.htm

Lesson 14: The Lord's Supper In Luke 22:19, when Jesus instituted the Lord's Supper, He said, "Do this in remembrance of Me." This is done to help us remember the Lord and what He did for us. The death of our Lord was not an accident. It was in God's eternal plan of redemption for Christ to come to this earth and take our punishment for our sins by dying for us so God can now be just in saving us. In a number of places in the Old Testament, God foretells the death of His Son for us. One place is found in Isaiah 53:5-6, "He was wounded for our transgressions, He was bruised for our iniquities, and by His stripes we are healed...And the Lord has laid on Him the iniquity of us all." God and Christ are loving and wonderful for what they have done for us. In 1 Corinthians 11:23-26 we read of Jesus instituting the Lord's Supper, "The Lord Jesus on the same night in which He was betrayed took bread; and when He had given thanks, He broke it and said, Take eat; this is My body which is broken for you; this do in ... ... https://www.bible.ca/interactive/worship-14-communion.htm

Was Christ Actually Raised From The Dead? In Romans 1:4 Paul said that Christ was "declared to be the Son of God with power..... by the resurrection from the dead". The resurrection from the dead was a conclusive demonstration that Jesus Christ was the Son of the living God.

They regarded the resurrection of Jesus Christ as conclusive proof that, in the end, all will be raised from the dead. Paul said, "And if Christ be not risen, then is our preaching vain, and your faith is also vain". He said, "And if Christ be not raised, your faith is vain; you are yet in your sins".

Why Be Baptized? The Bible clearly describes the action of Christian baptism as a burial in water, for baptism is a likeness to the death, burial, and resurrection of Christ.

We believe that we are justified by grace through faith in our Lord Jesus Christ and that he that believeth hath the witness in himself.

Ontological trichotomy of man: Spirit, Soul and Body a material differential between the physical body and the nonphysical (spirit and soul).
