    Ahhhhh, here we are.

    Please back up this claim with scripture. You know, like maybe posting the verse or verses which give you this idea.

    IAC, I don't think you have really defined what it means to be born again.
    The Bible is vague on this issue, as it is on, well, pretty much every issue!!!

    Which is why of course every Christian sect has a different idea of what it means to be A) Saved B) Baptized with water C) Baptised with the Holy Ghost.

    So please define for me the following:

    1. To be saved -


    2. To be born again -


    3. To be baptized with the Holy Ghost -

    We cannot continue a discussion when we don't know the definition of the terms we are using to discuss. Please, define these three things so we can continue to discuss this issue with terms which have a specified meaning.

    Look up the terms, then tell me what you think they mean, this way, you may learn something.

    1. To be saved - To accept Jesus as your personal savior


    2. To be born again - To have some kind of divine experience such as a vision or an extreme feeling of God's presence, sometimes accompanied by speaking in tongues


    3. To be baptized with the Holy Ghost - To have some kind of divine experience such as a vision or an extreme feeling of God's presence, sometimes accompanied by speaking in tongues

    IAC, do you agree with the terms presented above? If not please correct them for me. We have to agree on specific definitions for each term if we are going to keep using them. And they are vital terms to this discussion of Jesus and of Belief.

    I'm re-quoting these because it looks like IAC may have missed them.

    Or maybe he didn't.

    IAC, you have about the time it takes me to refill my coffee to explain what you're implying by the post above. Since it in no way relates to any of One_Raven's questions or points, I'm going to assume that it's trolling or, at the very least, spamming. At worst, you're making a physical threat. With such little to go on in your one-liner posts, its difficult to tell.

    Either way, without an explanation, you're about to receive another infraction. Perhaps lucky for you, its that time of the week to wash out my cup. Back in a few and hope to read your answer.

    Part of the Muslim "honor killing" system is to do that to people who leave Islam, nothing to do with Christian practices, so Skin, please read the posts for comprehension, but not to find any baseless excuse to attack my posts.
