Down through history all of those who have been saved have been saved by grace so your argument proves nothing.
Again, we have an uninterrupted sermon preached by Peter on the day of Pentecost beginning at Acts 2:14 and ending at Acts 2:36 and men were being saved by what Peter preached. Look at those verses and give me your evidence that Peter was preaching that Christ died for their sins or that He was made sin for us that we might be made the righteousness of God in Him.
It's time for you to put up or shut up!
you are obtuse. if it is all through history, welcpome to reality and what is there to prove?
you are reading like an accountant looking for exact phrases in familiar mathematical syntax, instead of for the drama that is there. . You miss it all.
Do you know the lamb slain since the foundation of the world? thats what happened and why. the set plan and foreknowledge of God.
It's so clear and you want me to shut up. what a miserable faith you have.
It is the highest drama in history and you want to say it is "not there."
It's like this Jerry: on the internet you will find the statement, regarding Genesis: the global deluge of early Genesis could not possibly have happened.
That is what it is like dealing with you and the fraud called 2P2P. You 'can't let it be true' that the one Gospel is there as commissioned just one chapter earlier in Acts (you will receive the power of the Spirit) because it will crush your precious 2P2P theories and some irrational need to have a land promise fulfilled. Are you suffering from vicarious guilt or something?
Are you going to say that the Spirit has spread out one gospel here, another there, another for women, and still another for Christians who never heard of John the Baptist? You might as well, with your 2P2P fraud.
And why are you still so dishonest about stopping at 36? it was not a sermon but an explanation of the sounds, and anything could have happened in the exchange. The Spirit worked and created the question in them just as much as the words in Peter, and the next verse is salvation by grace. What a foolish position you have taken.
Look at what Intojoy points out: the commission was to preach repentance and the remission (the solution to sin as debt). THEY KNEW that was what they were preaching.
You and 2P2P and the mindless profs at DTS DO NOT.
