comments: 1.How many leaders call by God agree with your teaching?<\/span>
\n ==========<\/span><\/p>\n

Very few that I know of. There is a question, however, that reveals an even more significant problem in the body of Christ: How many “leaders called of God” agree on any doctrine? The body of Christ on earth is in a divided mess. The truth that I am teaching can heal the body, and I hope that it will one day heal the division that seems to exists between us.<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n

==========<\/span>
\n 2. How can you teach and believe in tithes and not accept water baptism?<\/span>
\n ==========<\/span>
\n The doctrine concerning tithes and offerings as opposed to dead ceremonies such as water baptism can be found here. Your answer is found there:<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n

Tithes and Offerings:<\/span><\/em>
\n http:\/\/www.pastorjohnshouse.com\/books\/tithesandofferings.pdf<\/span><\/a><\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

Ceremonies:<\/span><\/em>
\n http:\/\/www.goingtojesus.com\/topic_ceremony.html<\/span><\/a><\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

==========<\/span>
\n ( I know water does not save , but isn’t it our public confession of identifying with Christ<\/span><\/p>\n

==========<\/span>
\n No. It is a public confession of ignorance. The only acceptable “public confession” of Christ is Christ- like conduct.<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n

==========<\/span>
\n 3. You say you are not a Christian, Then you are not Christ like right?<\/span><\/p>\n

==========<\/span>
\n I hope Jesus sees me as living a Christ-like life, and you, too. Part of my effort to be Christ-like is to obey his voice and come out of Christianity – and not be a Christian because Christ himself is not one.<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n

==========<\/span>
\n The bible says the the apostles were called Christians first at Antioch<\/span><\/p>\n

==========<\/p>\n

Yes, it does. But it does not tell us who called them that. Whoever it was, it was not the apostles. They would have never made such a claim. Somebody else did it to them: “they were called”, not “they called themselves”.<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

==========<\/span>
\n 4. Jesus condemned no one even the those whom were wrong,<\/span><\/p>\n

==========<\/span>
\n I don’t know which Bible you have been reading, but the Bible I read tells me he condemned a bunch of people, calling them “sons of the devil”, liars” etc. Please stop resisting the truth. I have seen people lose their minds trying to oppose it. You know better than to say such a thing. Please do not push Jesus too far.<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n

==========<\/span>
\n you seem to think you can not go wrong<\/span><\/p>\n

==========<\/span>
\n I can assure you that such is not the case.<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n

==========<\/span>
\n do you believe you are the only one right and everybody else has it wrong?<\/span><\/p>\n

==========<\/span>
\n Not at all. I believe God is right, and everybody else, except Jesus, has it wrong. I trust only his doctrine, his baptism, and his spirit. I hope that we can at least agree that neither you nor I am right. Only The Father and the Son. Then, we can begin to walk together in their light instead of a doctrine, a baptism, and a spirit that came to us from someone else.<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n

==========<\/span>
\n Thanks for your time look forward to hearing from you<\/span>
\n The last time I asked question you never posted to the site to give others a chance to see are you afraid to let them see the questions asked?<\/span><\/p>\n

==========<\/span><\/p>\n

I am sorry. I don’t remember that. If possible, you can re-send those questions to me, and I will answer them as best I can.<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n

Pastor John<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n

==========<\/span><\/p>\n

Bless you, Bro John….and sometimes we get it coming and going.<\/span><\/p>\n

When you said to this person about agreeing at least on the fundamentals of HIS doctrines, baptism and spirit, I saw this: HIM being baptized in the the river Jordan. Such joy our Father must’ve had toward Him at that moment. And we get a glimpse of this when HE spoke and said, “This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.”<\/span><\/p>\n

HIS grace and peace to you and yours,<\/span><\/p>\n

Rita<\/span>
\n ==========<\/span><\/p>\n

Hi Sister Rita. Good to hear from you.<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n

Jesus’ baptism is not the one he received at the Jordan. That was John’s. Maybe if we used another example, what I teach will be made clearer: Jesus’ circumcision is not the one his human body received when he was eight days old. Jesus’ circumcision, baptism, communion — everything in his kingdom — is in the Spirit, not in the flesh.<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n

Yes, the Father must have been very happy with His Son at the Jordan. But then, can you think of a time when the Father was not happy with him? The Son always did what pleased the Father.<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n

Hope that helps.<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n
