We must take the whole council of God.

For every single thing is colder than a rising Son.

"What must I do to be saved" When Peter was asked that question he replied, "repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost". Now, as you and I have discussed, there are exceptions, as in the case of the thief on the cross. Even that, though, came before Peters pronouncement. Or for that matter before Jesus said it in Mathew 28:19. Jesus was risen from the dead and preparing to ascend into heaven when He said, "Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name (singular) of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost. I'll point out here that the titles Father, Son, and Holy Ghost are not His name. It is the Lord Jesus Christ.I can list several examples in the scriptures where this formula was followed. such as the Ethiopian eunuch, the Roman Centurion and his household, the jailer who would have killed himself when the angel let the disciples out of their shackles.

Acts 2:37-39 KJV

Now, I have to ask. Is that law or grace?

Pray & Fast, and recite the Lords Prayer, Jesus said it when asked. Pray for what you need, Fast to know what is enough and Give Thanks through the Prayer his Son told us. It is the Trinity.

Your Spirit completes it.

The mystery of godliness. Did you know that the word Trinity is not found anywhere in scripture? The Godhead is mentioned in Acts 17;29 KJV, Romans 1:20 KJV and Colossians 2:9 KJV.

Couldn't have said it better

Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world. If any man love the world, the love of the Father is not in him.

@Muddy&Wolf Absolutely - It's all going to burn.

@x2k Lbsx I'm not sure I understand what you mean. Would you care to share what your Word with God is?

Ladies... I am a hard headed old soul...I have asked the Lord Jesus Christ into my life.... BUT, I personally CAN NOT accept a GIFT... so in the back of my mind, I wonder if, I HAVE RECEIVED THE FREE GIFT OF SALVATION... Any suggestions would be greatly Appreciated... GOD BLESS YOU ALL!!

Your destiny is with Christ Jesus. He made you to be His. Can you give a gift? Give yourself to the Lord as a gift to him. Give Him your life. Blessings to you.

I am listening, but I have no mic.

@x2k Lbsx Forgive me in advance but it seems that you are on the edge, perhaps a little over the edge. That being said, I pray that God will clear your mind and spirit. The fact that you are seeking (you are seeking, aren't you?) shows that there is something to be found. God bless you.

Burnin4Jesus... THANK YOU.. GOD BLESS YOU<<<

@KEPUSAF The Lord God left us a roadmap called the Bible, the Word of God.

Shadetree49, I ask GOD to wake me just after midnight, each night to allow quiet time, to read... I have read through the Bible each and every year for many years...

You're very welcome, Ken. "It is better to give than receive." Sounds like you already live by that. ❤️

Burnin4Jesus... I will try and continue to give ME as the GIFT to GOD...
