351: The Jewish Synagogue Mikveh was the "Christian Maker" Baptistry
... This is the precise symbolic imagery used by Paul, a Pharisee, of Christian baptism in Gal 3:27 where the newly minted Christian arises born again to "Put on" Christ: "For all of you who were baptized into Christ have clothed yourselves with Christ." (Galatians 3:27) d. "'But you have a few people in Sardis who have not soiled their garments; and they will walk with Me in white, for they are worthy. "Or do you not know that the unrighteous will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived; ... The usual reason given for the removal of Mikveh is that after the destruction of the Temple in 70 AD, Jews lost interest or felt there was no need for ritual purity. b. Author's Theory why Mikveh were removed: Synagogue Mikveh's were CHRISTIAN MAKERS, so the Jews removed them from their later synagogues. c.

352: What Early Christians believed about the 70 Weeks of Daniel 9
... He took the book, therefore, and loosed it, in order that the things spoken concerning Him of old in secret, might now be proclaimed with boldness upon the house-tops. 21. For this reason, then, the angel says to Daniel, "Seal the words, for the vision is until the end of the time." But to Christ it was not said "seal," but "loose" the things bound of old; in order that, by His grace, we might know the will of the Father, and believe upon Him whom He has sent for the salvation of men, Jesus our Lord. He says, therefore, "They shall ... Who instructed thee to announce these things, but He who formed thee in (from ) thy mother's womb? That is God, thou sayest. Thou hast spoken indeed, and that not falsely. The leopard has arisen; the he-goat is come; he hath broken his horns in pieces; he hath stamped upon him with his feet. He has been exalted by his fall; (the) four horns have come up from under that one. Rejoice, blessed Daniel! thou hast not been in error: all these things have ... ...

355: Boer, Harry R.: A Short History of the Early Church
... The early church accepted him as a man, and confessed and worshiped him as God. It placed him on the same level as the Father and the Holy Spirit. It did this naturally and without any feeling of contradiction. The church recognized the mystery of the person of Christ, but rather than debating the mystery it adored and revered it. This mystery aspect of the person of our Lord has never been lost in genuine Christianity. However, it has often been pressed into the background. This is what happened during the fourth through eighth centuries, when the person of ...

Jesus was accused of blasphemy, because he was pronouncing divine forgiveness! In fact, we can forgive someone of sin as humans, and they are still counted as lost by God for that same sin! Taken to its logical conclusion, we are able to grant God's forgiveness of another by virtue of us merely forgiving them on a human level. ... ...

I Clement coordinates Christ with the Father and the Holy Spirit in an oath. Ignatius calls Christ God 14 times. In the Didache the Son is coordinated with the Father and the Holy Spirit in the baptismal formula, and in the Martyrdom of Polycarp He is given glory equally with the Father and the Holy Spirit. In the Epistle of Barnabas He is the Lord of the whole world and pre-existent with God at the foundation of the world. 2 Clement says we must think of Christ as God. The Apostolic Fathers do not call the Holy Spirit God, but most them indicate adequately their belief in His distinct personality and divinity.

John wanted above all to be led by the Holy Spirit. But he was exposed to a variety of opinions about how you are led by the Holy Spirit.

Jesus says in Mark 11:25-26, "And whenever you stand praying, if you have anything against anyone, forgive him, that your Father in heaven may forgive you your trespasses.

According to Isaiah 59:2, it is our sins that "separate us" from God so we cannot go to heaven. We must develop a forgiving attitude toward all people so that God will be forgiving of us so we can go to Heaven. How we treat others can also affect the way God hears our prayers.
