Norm, do you really expect anyone who has read the word of God to believe that Jesus lost the ability to forgive sins when He ascended into Heaven? Please try to avoid thinking of your listeners as a people unable to understand the word of God. And BTW, in Matthew 28 our risen Lord claimed ALL authority in heaven and on earth. So let's just drop that teaching that Jesus could only forgive sins while on Earth, shall we? Thanks.

The church of Christ doesn't save anyone. The saved are added to the church of Christ by Christ (Act 2:47) when they have obeyed the gospel to have their sins washed away in his blood (Acts 22:16; Col. 3:16). It is the blood of Christ that saves (1 Pet. 1:18, 19). When we have been bought by the blood of Christ (1 Cor. 6:20) you are put into the body of Christ (1 Cor. 12:13; Acts 20:28; Eph. 1:22, 23). The church is the place of the saved, not the source of salvation.

christdiedonthecross... JESUS saved the thief on the cross about 50-53 days b4 the COC was established on the day of pentecost in acts 2 & peter said in acts 2:47 to repent & be baptized for the remission of sins...he didnt say repent & pray to have your sins forgiven or pray to have your sins forgiven..there is no such thing as a sinner's prayer john 9:31..norm is a man of GOD....looks like what you have been taught is false...

There is an Old Testemant Salvation and there is a New Testement Salvation so don't mix the two --they are different.
The thief was saved under the Old Testemant as the New had not started yet.
The new started at Jesus resurrection--not at His Death.
The Holy Ghost was given 50 days after His resurrection which is a critical part of the New Testement Salvation.
Forget the thief on the cross and be more aware of the thief that is robbing you of truth! True Salvation!

You are taking 1 Cor. completely out of context! Paul was confronting the church about "divisions." Just as there are many "divisions" today(baptists, methodists, etc), there is only ONE true church-the Church of CHRIST. We are commanded to be baptized INTO Christ (Gal. 3:27, Rom. 6:3-4). Stop twisting God's Word and obey the truth before it's eternally too late.

Thankyou for preaching the truth! This is such a simple and beautiful event in the Gospel, and denominationalism has tried to twist and pervert it, as they do much of the bible. It's good to see somebody on Youtube preaching what is right!

Are you saying that Jesus cannot forgive sins today?

This man is a worker of satan.

Kingdoms upon kingdoms never ending are at stake here.
The New Covenant did not begin until Jesus had ascended into heaven to offer his blood for the sins of man (Heb. 10:9-14; Acts 1:8, 9; Heb. 1:3; Acts 2:29-33, 47).
