But I can say this for sure, that a human being's sins are not washed away by baptism water, else even Hindus who immerse themseles in the Ganga river would become born again. A man's sins - whether they are Hindu, Jewish, Muslim, etc. - are forgiven only by the blood of Jesus Christ. This means the moment you repent of your sins and believe in Jesus' incarnation, death and resurrection, receiving him as your Saviour and Lord, you are saved. That is, when you repent and accept God's plan for your salvation. You do not need to be baptized in order to be saved. The verse Mark 16:16 does not say that he who does not believe AND IS NOT BAPTIZED SHALL BE CONDEMNED. It ONLY says HE WHO DOES NOT BELIEVE shall be condemned.<br /><br />However, I agree with your point about Cornelius and Revelation. In rare cases, where a Christian has known Jesus well and yet sins unrepentantly, God may remove their name from the Book of Life. But that usually does not happen. Or so I would like to think, at least.KITOOMALhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06622602165334460490noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6779739314203186694.post-86197846368744018692014-02-24T17:22:01.355+05:302014-02-24T17:22:01.355+05:30Yes, as the Bible says, the goodness of God draws ...Yes, as the Bible says, the goodness of God draws people to repentance.<br /><br />Still, people do have a free volition (will power).

Heard of... Evangelicals Use Occult Deception !<br /><br /> Heard of the coming blood moons? Is the pretrib rapture symbolized by anything in the heavens?<br /> Hal Lindsey, influenced by occult astrology, asserts on p. 124 in "The Late Great Planet Earth" that the famous Sphinx in Egypt has the head of a "woman" - even though encyclopedias say it's the head of a "man"! Hal's plagiarism on that page of a 19th century British theologian is his acceptance of the occult Virgo-to-Leo theory - a "Christian" zodiac arbitrarily starting with Virgo (Virgin Mary) and ending with Leo (Christ returning as "Lion," Rev. 5:5).<br /> Those who swallow this guesswork often see Ursa Minor (part of Cancer which precedes Leo) as a heavenly "symbol" of a pretrib rapture!<br /> Pretribs also insist on separating the "church" from "Israel" - but when you aren't looking (or thinking) they blithely "prove" pretrib by the Jewish feasts in Leviticus, the stages of a Hebrew wedding (Google "Pretrib Rapture: A Staged Event"), and the one "taken" and the other "left" in "Jewish" Matthew 24!<br /> Amazingly, Jewishness (and even anti-Jewishness) has been uncovered even in pretrib dispensationalism's 19th century foundation (Google "Roots of Warlike Christian Zionism")!<br /> The current "blood moons" craze (promoted by lunar persons including rock musician Scottie Clarke and John Hagee) is tied to - you guessed it - the same Jewish feast days.<br /> Yes, there's something colored red in the future of the church, but I don't have moons in mind. What will really turn red will be the collective faces of many when it finally dawns on them that their any-moment fly-away was nothing more than an end time hoax!<br />Irvhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07634792243846422285noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6779739314203186694.post-21554109700288045582013-07-07T12:21:35.126+05:302013-07-07T12:21:35.126+05:30Amen!

There are actual...<br />Thanks for leaving your comment.<br /><br />There are actually a handful of reasons for falling sick. Often you see people who are not born again, enjoying a happy material life and (false) spiritual life. But if you were to look at them with God's eyes, their spirit would be dark. That's because they have not been cleansed by the blood of Jesus through their faith in him. If their mind and body is strong, they may not fall sick. But because of others' sins (e.g. pollution from factories, nuclear plant leaks etc.) they could fall sick because the legal basis for sin's consequences (sickness being just one of them) still exist in their lives - unless some Christian has been praying for them. But once they are born again, their spirits become completely clean, just like Jesus' spirit. So the legal basis no longer exists. However, just like when a baby is born, it is born perfect, but still needs to grow, a person who is born again still needs to grow mentally and emotionally to conform to the Bible. So you often see (born again) Christians sick while those who are not born again appear to enjoy healthy lives.<br /><br />Also, if people sin, they may invite the consequences in other ways like financial loss, relationship problems, mental agony, lawsuits etc. What sin will lead to what consequence is beyond the scope of this post.<br /><br />It is written in the Bible that all human beings have sinned and fall short of the glory of God…and that you are saved from going to hell only if you are born again (no matter which religion you were originally born into). There is no other way. And you can get born again (i.e. your sins are washed away) only by believing that Jesus is the Son of the Living God and he came as a human being, died to pay the price for the forgiveness of your sins and rose again to life…and that you acknowledge that you sinned and only he can save you and ask him to save you. If you are not a Christian, you should definitely read this blog post: <br /><br />Good news Friday:<br />http://ketanrindani.blogspot.in/2009/04/good-news-friday.html<br /><br />Next…<br /><br />Christians would never fall sick if their minds would be renewed to the promises of the Bible. Christians are not intended to be the ones who would be sick but rather the ones who would heal the sick. Be sure of one thing: whether you are a Christian, Hindu, Muslim, Buddhist, Jew, Jain, atheist or agnostic etc. God loves you and wants to save you. God desires for all people to be saved and to come to the knowledge of the truth. (1 Timothy 2:4)<br /><br />God bless you!<br />KITOOMALhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06622602165334460490noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6779739314203186694.post-79274104626379036742012-10-02T11:26:35.555+05:302012-10-02T11:26:35.555+05:30Hi, I appreciate your leaving a comment.
Firstly...Hi, I appreciate your leaving a comment. <br /><br />Firstly, I recommend reading the book "Bodily Healing and the Atonement", which conclusively proves the bodily healing truly is in the Atonement. Next...<br /><br />Really, if you take everything in the Bible contextually, then very little of the Bible would apply to us. That's because none of us who is alive today was around when the Bible was written. But the Word of God never changes. The point is: if you truly believe that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit, it actually means that you (your spirit) is the holy of holies - the innermost place you can get to in order to meet God. Would you bring anything that is not perfect, into His presence? God really wills that we prosper and be in health as our soul prospers. His ultimate goal is to reconcile every level of our existence to Him - spirit, soul and body. That will be accomplished at the Rapture, when we will be given incorruptible bodies. But that does not mean we do not look at the complete picture: that imperfection should not dwell in a perfect spirit (a born again spirit). The verses I selected at the beginning of the post are targeted at us born again people, whose bodies are the temple of the Holy Spirit. That's why the idea that we should not fall sick.<br /><br />Also, I suggest you read through all the healing related posts on this blog to get a complete picture of what I am trying to convey. This post was just the first in a series. Here are links to those posts:<br /><br />Does God Allow Sickness for His Glory?<br />http://ketanrindani.blogspot.in/2011/01/does-god-allow-sickness-for-his-glory.html<br /><br />Is Sin Related to Sickness?<br />http://ketanrindani.blogspot.in/2011/02/is-sin-related-to-sickness.html<br /><br />"Wilt thou be made whole?"<br />http://ketanrindani.blogspot.in/2011/03/thou-be-made-whole.html<br />KITOOMALhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06622602165334460490noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6779739314203186694.post-9855610837418409182012-10-02T11:23:38.325+05:302012-10-02T11:23:38.325+05:30This comment has been removed by the author.KITOOMALhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06622602165334460490noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6779739314203186694.post-40771549560146438332012-10-02T00:46:30.211+05:302012-10-02T00:46:30.211+05:30Dear KITOOMAL, Bro...you seem to be completely out...Dear KITOOMAL, Bro...you seem to be completely out of context and connecting them...with healing...What is the context in which Paul was writing to Corinth?..Please read the scriptures carefully.........its about the sins one commits.........we are told not to defile and keep it (Our body's) HOLY because we are born again and Holy Spirit dwells in us and not to perform any act that causes SIN....it is not talking about healing........<br /><br />"Every sin that a man does is outside the body, but he who commits sexual immorality sins(in general) against his own body. Or do you not know that your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit who is in you, whom you have from God, and you are not your own?For you were bought at a price; therefore glorify God in your body and in your spirit, which are God’s.<br /><br />12 All things are lawful for me, but all things are not helpful. All things are lawful for me, but I will not be brought under the power of any. 13 Foods for the stomach and the stomach for foods, but God will destroy both it and them. Now the body is not for sexual immorality but for the Lord, and the Lord for the body. 14 And God both raised up the Lord and will also raise us up by His power.<br /><br />15 Do you not know that your bodies are members of Christ? Shall I then take the members of Christ and make them members of a harlot? Certainly not! 16 Or do you not know that he who is joined to a harlot is one body with her? For “the two,” He says, “shall become one flesh.”[b] 17 But he who is joined to the Lord is one spirit with Him.<br /><br />18 Flee sexual immorality. Every sin that a man does is outside the body, but he who commits sexual immorality sins against his own body. 19 Or do you not know that your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit who is in you, whom you have from God, and you are not your own? 20 For you were bought at a price; therefore glorify God in your body and in your spirit, which are God’s."<br /><br />AGAIN.......what is the context....not to defile the Temple of GOD, is he talking about once BODY..yes can correlate to one's body( physical, SPIRIT,SOUL))..but this is not talking about HEALING.......<br /><br />12 Then Jesus went into the temple of God and drove out all those who bought and sold in the temple, and overturned the tables of the money changers and the seats of those who sold doves. 13 And He said to them, “It is written, ‘My house shall be called a house of prayer,’ but you have made it a ‘den of thieves.’”.....<br /><br />Bro..please pick verses about Atonement and Healing... keeping your once body( physical, mental/mind:SPIRIT,SOUL) is was commanded......and if you defile...you MAY get sickness (not all the time).....and Atonement( is nothing to with Healing).. To make atonement (Lev 32 v.30) means to obtain a covering for sin, to wipe out, to cleanse, to appease, and to purge.<br /><br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6779739314203186694.post-91352425873179926162012-10-01T23:18:24.328+05:302012-10-01T23:18:24.328+05:30Hi, kitoomal.

As our body is a temple of the Holy Spirit of God (1st Cor. 6:19), we do not have a right to tolerate its getting defiled or broken in any way - neither in the form of accident, injury etc. nor sickness etc. As we are seated in heavenly places with Jesus Christ (Eph. 2:6), we cannot be sick, simply because there is no sickness neither any pain in Heaven. So how can God allow something (actively; i.e. other than the law of sowing and reaping) that is contradictory to His own Word? The Bible says His Word is forever settled in Heaven (Psalm 119:89). We should take these verses as good news and assert ourselves against sickness and disease.<br /><br />Just a few days ago, I went up to my father-in-law who was in the ICU...laid my hand on him and commanded sickness to leave his body in Jesus' name. I commanded his body to regain full consciousness by 3 p.m. the next day. He smiled at my mother-in-law at 11:30 a.m.! I merely obeyed God's command and God backed it up with His Word in action - healing manifested.KITOOMALhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06622602165334460490noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6779739314203186694.post-52419221432392045442011-07-07T13:28:22.812+05:302011-07-07T13:28:22.812+05:30We live under a new covenant, a new testament, the...We live under a new covenant, a new testament, the old testament has examples of people getting sick and God allowing Satan to test Job, however Jesus Christ has made all things new , we live under a new covenant, part of our salvation is our ability to heal every time Jesus healed someone he said "Your faith has Healed you" GOd loves us he does not want us to suffer He came and spilled His blood for our salvation we are saved in Jesus name and that includes sickness.Edgabahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11462899740697151045noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6779739314203186694.post-23568960823363845752011-06-24T20:12:54.949+05:302011-06-24T20:12:54.949+05:30I believe that in our sickness if we are Christian...I believe that in our sickness if we are Christians we come to know Him better cause we depend on Him for comfort and understanding during that time.

But with the Atonement, his access to God's throne actually ended. If it did not, God would probably be really unjust - born again believers who are joint heirs with Christ (seated in heavenly places with Christ Jesus) - being allowed by God to be sick, but satan - who was a thief from the beginning, being allowed to access God's throne. O how absurd it sounds!<br /><br />Our God is a good God. Either we can access God's throne of grace in Jesus' name, or the devil can access it. Both cannot - or else Jesus' atonement was in vain. Think about it, dear folks. <br /><br />Those who believe God allows sickness for His glory may be well-meaning, Heaven-bound people, but they are missing out on a whole lot of blessings. And also the opportunity to BE a blessing for people who God wants saved and healed and delivered (remember: God wants that none should perish).<br /><br />Even as I type, the Holy Spirit keeps putting these finer nuances (or angles) into my heart and mind and I just don't feel like getting my hands off the keyboard!!!
