▢ You can Google: king saul received the Holy Spirit, David received the Holy Spirit and so on and so forth.
Google does not help in this case since what you are saying does not even compute. Second, we are on the subject of baptism which applies only to the New Covenant, so I don't know how King Saul and David made it into this conversation when you could have easily explained yourself in context. undecided

■ Israel has been promised a land, but much more than that God intends for them to ultimately inherit a Kingdom. We owe our Christianity to them, as we are only ingrafted branches. My prayer is all Israel shall be saved and may their enemies bow before their feet. Ingrafted Branches
And if ye be Christ's, then are ye Abraham's seed, and heirs according to the promise Gal 3
You are not making any sense at all.

▢ God said the New agreement/Covenant He will make with the House of Jacob (Israel) - Jeremiah 31 vs 31 - 34.
▢ Jesus Christ Himself came and told you that He was sent by the Father only to the Lost sheep of Israel(Jacob's descendants) - Matthew 15 vs 22 - 24
▢ Jesus even warned His followers not to give that which is Holy — the Covenant and the Kingdom of God— to those who are not of the Lost sheep of Israel aka the dogs - Matthew 7 vs 6

So, what ingrafted branches nonsense are you speaking about? undecided

Unbelievers world over never pray that vain prayer each day yet God allows them to live every new day. Don't you see it is sanctimonious to believe that your vain prayers are the reason why God allows you to see one more day? undecided Can't you see how you claim glory by these nonsense rituals you abide by? undecided

I know you. I knew you would come. I know you feel attacking me gives you a superior boost just as you do same to people daily. However, I only asked for God's Grace to live life each day alone as it presents itself. If it's a vain prayer and I potray myself as what you've accused me then i wish you good luck

I won't fall into this temptation

No such thing as salvation. It is a control mechanism to subdue the naive.

If we die to live forever, why not live forever directly without dying ?

Of we live forever without dying that means the consequences of sinfulness remains forever which is eternal damnation and seperation from God. To accurate understand spiritual truths, it must be with peeled spiritual eyes and understanding

Baptism should be done in the name of Jesus Christ and not in the name of God the father Son and the Holy Spirit
Re: Is Baptism Necessary For Salvation? by Saig: 7:31pm On Jul 30, 2023
Baptism is more than necessary for salvation.
Baptism forgives sins (Acts 2:37-38). Baptism washes sins away (Acts 22:16). Jesus commanded the disciples to go preach and whoever hears and believes and is BAPTIZED Will be SAVE! (Mark 16:15-16).

Water baptism does not wash away your sins nor does it forgive your sins. undecided

Salvation referenced in Mark 16 vs 15 - 17 is the same Salvation described by Jesus Christ in John 3 vs 1 - 21 and there is no mention of washing away of sins or forgiveness of sins by Him. undecided

What is wrong with baptism been done in the name of God the Father the Son and the Holy Spirit? I thought that's the way Jesus commands it.

As you can testify, being zealous without guidance and proper tutoring is dangerous. It pushed Saul to supervise tons of killings.

A zealous believer must first be taught and trained adequately and learn the scriptures personally before allowed to speak otherwise they can cause great damage because they lack the ability to see the conditions of their very own souls so as to turn from corrections into a more righteous path.

Why would those righteous men of Old be considered sinners? undecided

Recall that Jesus Christ said He came to call the sinners, and not the righteous in the Land, to God. Do you know why? Those who were able to obtain righteousness by way of God's Old Law were those who did as God commanded. We, the sinners that Jesus Christ came to call were the scum of God's Old Law — Deuteronomy 28 vs 15 - 57— who refused to obey God's Old Law of Old. We were the useless trees that were condemned by God from His Old Law. The Old Law of Moses deemed us convicts, and we were judged and condemned to die as a result of that under the Old Law. undecided

But God chose to give us one more chance and that is why He handed us over to Jesus Christ so that we can maybe prove ourselves to Him through the path of redemption that Jesus Christ affords us. So, do not for one moment consider yourself better than those of Old who were able to obtain Holiness and righteousness through obedience to God's Law. No, we are not better than them in any way or form. We are fortunate to be given a second chance by God but we are not in any way better than they are. undecided

They will make heaven if they died in the Lord.
There's a reason why Jesus spoke about the parable of the rich man and the poor man who both died. One found himself in Hell and the other I guess you already know. The rich man was even begging Abraham.........

Understanding the Scripture is paramount to the wholesome believe and faith of the Christian.

Matt.27.52 - and the graves were opened; and many bodies of the saints who had fallen asleep were raised;
Matt.27.53 - and coming out of the graves after His resurrection, they went into the holy city and appeared to many.



I hope you understand what the above Bible verse means. It's simple.

There are other verses as proofs also but it all depends on your level of understanding to accept them.
