Swampfox, where did you learn all about your scriptures?
Historically, people have learned scripture in the home & then thoroughly in a Church.
____________
Acts Philip and the Ethiopian 8:26-39 in part, “Then the angel of the Lord spoke to Philip, ‘Get up and head south on the road... Now there was an Ethiopian eunuch, a court official of the Candace...Seated in his chariot, he was reading the prophet Isaiah.
The Spirit said to Philip, ‘Go and join up with that chariot.’ Philip ran up...and said, ‘Do you understand what you are reading?’ He (Ethiopian) replied, ‘How can I unless someone instructs me.’...
Then Philip opened his mouth and, beginning with this scripture passage, he proclaimed Jesus to him.”

Swampfox, what church did you attend & learn scripture? Every church I have ever heard of, has taught that scripture is handed on from generation to generation. Who taught you, or did you receive your knowledge directly from God?
______________
Acts8 continuing in part, “As they traveled along the road they came to some water, and the eunuch said, ‘Look there is water. What is to prevent my being baptized?’...and Philip and the eunuch both went down into the water, and he baptized him.”

Swampfox, have you ever been baptized in a church? What was the name of that church? Do you baptize people in your armchair church, or do you just ‘pontificate as the pope of your scriptures?’
Swampfox, are you truly >saved? Swampfox have you been baptized by water? Swampfox have you been baptized by the Holy Spirit?
Swampfox, Are you really a Christian & a member of the Church of Jesus Christ?
Historically, baptism is a required act = for membership in the Kingdom of Jesus Christ.
Swampfox, do you ever listen to ministers preaching about Jesus Christ on the Radio? I noticed you didn’t answer that question?
How did you learn the scriptures?
“Swampfox, where did you learn all about your scriptures?”
From Scripture and Church.
“Swampfox, what church did you attend & learn scripture? Every church I have ever heard of, has taught that scripture is handed on from generation to generation.”
NO. God’s word has always been and always will be. (John 1:1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. 2 He was in the beginning with God. 3 All things were made through Him, and without Him nothing was made that was made. 4 In Him was life, and the life was the light of men. 5 And the light shines in the darkness, and the darkness did not comprehend[a] it.) God’s word, Jesus, is light. Read it and understand. Just as the Eunuch was doing.
2 Tim 2:15 ( Be diligent to present yourself approved to God, a worker who does not need to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.)
“Who taught you, or did you receive your knowledge directly from God?”
The Bible is from God. Do you doubt that? 2 Tim.3:16 (cripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness_, John 14:16, John 16:13.
2 Cor. 4:3-5 (3 But even if our gospel is veiled, it is veiled to those who are perishing, 4 whose minds the god of this age has blinded, who do not believe, lest the light of the gospel of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine on them. 5 For we do not preach ourselves, but Christ Jesus the Lord, and ourselves your bondservants for Jesus’ sake.)
2 Peter 1:15-17 (16 For we did not follow cunningly devised fables when we made known to you the power and coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, but were eyewitnesses of His majesty. 17 For He received from God the Father honor and glory when such a voice came to Him from the Excellent Glory: “This is My beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.”)
Swampfox, have you ever been baptized in a church? What was the name of that church? Do you baptize people in your armchair church,
I was baptized into the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ in 1969.
‘o you just ‘pontificate as the pope of your scriptures?’”
All of you Catholics have a real problem with God’s word huh? Just don’t like it do you? Don’t like it being quoted do you?
“wampfox, are you truly >saved? Swampfox have you been baptized by water? Swampfox have you been baptized by the Holy Spirit?”
I have been baptized in the Name of the Father, the Son, and the Hoy Spirit for the remission of sins just as Jesus has commanded. Matt. 28:18-20 (And Jesus came and spoke to them, saying, “All authority has been given to Me in heaven and on earth. 19 Go therefore[a] and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, 20 teaching them to observe all things that I have commanded you; and lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age.” Amen.)
“wampfox, do you ever listen to ministers preaching about Jesus Christ on the Radio? I noticed you didn’t answer that question?
How did you learn the scriptures?”
I do not listen to tv preachers, this is the second time I have answered it. I learned scripture from reading and studying God’s word. I learn scripture from Church and I learned it from my parents.
Mostly from studing and reading God’s word.
Have a great Sunday, time to prepare for worship.
