| C'mon, Mom..Let's go back inside! |

| Not me..It's finally snowing..YAY!! |

| OK, so now that I'm back in the house and comfy..let me tell ya about my week.. It all started out just fine and dandy on Monday mornin.. I woke up and Dad was home..He had the day off for some reason! Well, Mom was leavin to go outa town for the day, but she told me that we was goin for a ride first!!! So I got all happy waggin my tail, and runnin out to the van..and then as we turned a curve through town..I realized where they was takin me..to THE VET! So, I walked around outside with Dad sniffin all the places where other dogs have been (Me, not Dad..his sniffer ain't so great.) And then So then Mom talks to the doc, and then she does the unthinkable..She put me into a big ole cage! She tried to pet me through the bars, but i wouldn't even look at her. All I remember next is Dad walkin me out to the truck and a man laughing at me as I wobbled along sideways..Dad said I had to straighten up since i was drivin home..That is why the man laughed. I didn't think it was too funny though. I guess the reason I had to go to that awful place and take a nap was so that my teeth could get cleaned. Mom says she loves my "Buddy kisses" so I guess it was all worth it. |
IS IGNORANCE A VALID EXCUSE? by steve finnell
ReplyDeleteCan ignorance be claimed as an excuse for rejecting the words of Jesus?
Mark 16:16 "He who believes and is baptized will be saved; but he who does not believe will be condemned. (NKJV)
Is it a valid excuse to claim ignorance when denying that immersion in water is essential in order to be saved?
Acts 17:30 "Truly, these times of ignorance God overlooked, but now commands all men everywhere to repent,
Ephesians 4:18 having their understanding darkened, being alienated from the life of God, because of the ignorance that is in them, because of the hardening of their heart;(NKJV)
Can men reject water baptism for the remission of sins and be excused because of their hard heart.
1 Timothy 1:13 although I was formerly a blasphemer, a persecutor, and an insolent man; but I obtained mercy because I did it ignorantly in unbelief.(NKJV)
The key here is "formerly" ignorant. The apostle Paul never denied that water baptism was in order to receive forgiveness.
Galatians 1:6-9 ......9 As we have said before, so now I say again, if anyone preaches any other gospel to you than what you have received let him be accursed. (NKJV)
Can those who claim Jesus as savior and have read the New Testament Scriptures claim ignorance when they deny that water baptism is essential for forgiveness from sin?
Will the ignorance excuse work on Judgement Day?
