Ford Fiesta












Rob Ford is in trouble again.  I kept my eyes peeled for the embattled mayor of Toronto during my visit to the city in March.  Not only did I not see the portly politician, I spotted shockingly few fat folks.  (Except, of course, when I was confronted with my own reflection.)  Even during my visits to nightclubs, I didn't encounter a single overly intoxicated Canadian.  Ford seems to be a outlier in the sober and the healthy city.

    THE BIBLE OR MEN'S OPINIONS?

    Is the Bible the accurate word God or are the opinions of men the absolute truth?

    According to the average of May 2005, May 2006, May 2007 Gallup Polls state that 40% of protestants and 45% of other Christians believe that the Bible is the actual word of God, to be taken literally. If that is a fact, then at least 55% who claim to be Christians do not believe the Bible is God's accurate word.

    If those claiming to be Christian do not trust the Bible, then who or what do they trust? They are left with the opinions of men.


    JOHN MacArthur Quote:
    In Acts 2:38, Peter appears to link forgiveness of sins to baptism. But there are several plausible interpretations of this verse that do not connect forgiveness of sin with baptism. It is possible to translate the Greek preposition eis—”because of,” or “on the basis of,” instead of “for.” It is used in that sense in Matthew 3:11; 12:41; and Luke 11:32.

    There is not one English translation of the the Bible that translates "for" of Acts 2:38 as "because of" or "on the basis of".

    Max Lucado Quote:

    3) “What of the ones who die before they have a chance? What if I entrust my soul to Christ and before I can tell anyone or arrange to be baptized, a swarm of killer bees attacks me and I die?”
    The answer to this question is found in the character of God. Would a God of love reject an honest heart? No way. Would a God of mercy and kindness condemn any seeking soul? Absolutely not. Having called you and died for you would he cast you away because of a curious sequence of events? Inconceivable. Is it possible for an unbaptized believer to be saved? Yes, definitely. Should every believer be baptized? Yes, definitely.

    Jesus Quote:

    Mark 16:15-16 ...preach the gospel to every creature. 16 He who believes and is baptized will be saved...(NKJV)

    Realizing that 55% of those who claim to be Christian do not believe the Bible is God's word, it is no shock that men reject the clear teaching of Scripture.

    Belief and water baptism are essential to salvation regardless of man-made doctrine.

    Men are not baptized in water because they are already saved. Water baptism is in order to be saved.

    What could more illogical, than to believe the Bible is not the accurate word of God, and then believe without question, preachers, priests, Bible commentaries, church creed books and other extra-Biblical writings?
