My question is, why do people call the Bible the Word of God when it is clearly a name given to Jesus? If you read the Bible believing that the Bible is the Word of God it gives you a very different message from reading it with the understanding that Jesus being the Word of God.
Someone told me that the word "tempt" when it refers to God, was a typo. Please let me know what you think.
I've been having a heated discussion with a fellow church member about the differences between James and Paul. How James was under a different dispensation than Paul, my friend can't buy that. I was wondering what scriptures I could show him that would back up my argument? I tried to explain how James was a legalist, that his teaching was faith plus works for salvation, and Paul's teaching is Faith. Can you help?
What is the gift of the Holy Ghost?
First of all I love Jesus with all my heart and believe that I am saved . I have been baptized and I have repented of my sins and have received the holy ghost. About 4 months ago I started at an apostolic church and we do receive our messages through scripture however it was brought to my attention that if I wasn't baptized in Jesus name I wouldn't enter the kingdom of God. I have truly believed in my salvation . I acknowledge Jesus and I have always believed that my baptism was right. I was shattered and so confused about this that I am asking for help in finding the scripture that will bring some comfort to my beliefs. If I have been baptized in the Father Son and Holy Ghost and he is one, isn't that the same as being baptized in Jesus name?
