My question is what is the significance of laying on hands; or what does the laying on of hands represent? On the Day of Pentecost (Acts 2) the Holy Spirit fell on all assembled without the laying on of hands.
Can you tell me what a dumb spirit is?
Please help me out here. We are studying the qualifications for a Pastor. If he is divorced can he still be ordained? Does it matter who is at fault? What about the passage in 1Corinthians 7 "not bound". Someone in our church is divorced and wants to become a pastor, it is causing a lot of strife in church and families.
Is the church the building as we know it today or is it the body?
If a Baptist Church had problems and split, would the newly formed church be a scriptural church? The new church did not have an "arm extended" from another church. Please help me understand "extending an arm from another church" clearer. I hear other preachers making the comments that if an "arm was not extended" from another scriptural New Testament Church then it is not a New Testament Church.
