Family of God: [Church_of_Christ] Re: Truth for the world

Now, that's a direct quote from an ongoing written debate. It's fair to ask some of the bright lights in our group to point out his inconsistencies as well as his mistakes in the Greek. I'd love to be able to copy and paste my reply, because replying will be tedious for me - but second nature for members like Clay. There is no rush - I have 24 hours in which to reply as per the rules.

Clay's response:
Brent you and I apparently on the same page.

Jesus didn't you or I to learn the Greek.

Jesus called us to love one another and to love the Father.

He further taught, "IF" you love me, keep "MY" commandments.

Jesus taught:
14Afterward he appeared to the eleven themselves as they were reclining at table, and he rebuked them for their unbelief and hardness of heart, because they had not believed those who saw him after he had risen. 15And he said to them, "Go into all the world and proclaim the gospel to the whole creation. 16 Whoever believes and is baptized will be saved, but whoever does not believe will be condemned. 17And these signs will accompany those who believe: in my name they will cast out demons; they will speak in new tongues; 18 they will pick up serpents with their hands; and if they drink any deadly poison, it will not hurt them; they will lay their hands on the sick, and they will recover."
19So then the Lord Jesus, after he had spoken to them, was taken up into heaven and sat down at the right hand of God. 20And they went out and preached everywhere, while the Lord worked with them and confirmed the message by accompanying signs.]]

Clay continues: Teach them what Jesus taught and commanded Brent.

Command them to obey the commands of Jesus.

Now if you prefer to get into a debate by trying to figure God out
as to what mega-second God "LEGALLY" forgives man's sins then you can do that I suppose.

But I will just stick to commands as Jesus taught.

It's kinda hard to obey the "expalanations" of Peter.

How do you obey "and you will receive the Holy Spirit?
How do you obey "for the remission of your sins?

Seems to me the command is repent and be baotized.

The Baptist do that don't they?

Isn't it a matter of sincere confusion of when God does what He does
and How He does it. that is dividing us?

Good luck on your Greek.

Grace and peace Clay
