Page 26 - Rutherford Weekly 828-248-1408 let's allow the 1st-century church to speak for itself. In the words of Christ, "Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them…" (Matthew 28:19), "He who believes and is baptized will be saved…(Mark 16:16), "Unless one is born of the water and the Spirit, he cannot enter the kingdom of God (John 3:5). Peter pro- claims shortly after Jesus' resurrection, "Repent, and let every one of you be baptized…" (Acts 2:38), and about 35 years later declares the same message, "There is an antitype which now saves us-baptism…" (1 Peter 3:21). Many cite Paul as teaching that "faith only" saves in Romans 10:9-10, but what did the same Paul write just four chapters earlier in the same letter? "Or do you not know that as many of us as were baptized into Christ Jesus were baptized into His death…" wrote Paul about 55 A. D. (Romans 6:3). Clearly, Paul wrote of baptism in Ro- mans before he penned the words of chapter 10, so belief is a prerequisite for baptism into Christ! James agrees with this doctrine, saying that, "even the demons believe-and tremble" (James 2:19). Biblically speaking, should we delete the above cited verses from our Bibles, or should they be accepted as true 1st-century teaching? "baptizo") to be an essential ingredient of faithful obedience?

Even mommas who are nor- mally more about cleanliness are excited to see their little boy or girl come home with a little blood on them from a successful morn- ing. I have heard of places where school is closed during the fi rst week of rifl e season and I have personally witnessed every hotel room in a Days Inn in Kentucky being occu- pied with hunters. I can still picture the park- ing lot full of trucks, trailers, four wheelers, and deer. The weirdest thing however was watching hunter after hunter waltz through- out the lobby and down the halls with their rifl e in tow and garnished with blaze orange. Think with me just a second though………. Can you imagine if 6 months prior to that day a couple from, let's say, Hartford Con- necticut decided they were going to be coming through Kentucky and would need to stay overnight. By chance, they booked this Days Inn on the same weekend of the opening day of rifl e season. Now imagine the man getting up on a Saturday morn- ing, walking down to the lobby in his fuzzy house shoes to get a newspaper and a cup of coffee, and happening upon every man and woman dressed in camo and with gun in hand. (I laugh as I write) That guy would run up to his room, lock the door, close the curtains, hide his wife, and order room service until all of the "barbarians" left. He FOR SALE FIREWOOD FOR SALE.

The truth is, I appreciate those who to try to accommodate us during this time. I also appreciate those who tolerate us as well, in the true sense of the word. I just wished that others understood tolerance in other areas of living as well. In fact, I'm just about sick of somebody telling me, with a voice that's barely broken puberty, that I'm intolerant! Now let's have a little classroom time together…….. Think about it. By defi - nition, to tolerate something or someone means that I don't agree with that to which I am tolerating. (this seems so simple to me) I can still be friends with a person and not agree with whatever it is that I might not agree with. But toleration, again by defi ni- tion, does not mean that I give up my beliefs and espouse theirs! And yet that is what most individuals and groups who cry out for tolerance want! I want to make a promise to everybody. I am willing to tolerate anyone but I am unwilling to give up my beliefs until you convince me that my beliefs are wrong. And if I don't like you, it's not because I'm in- tolerant. It's probably because you're a jerk and I don't like jerks no matter what they believe.
