Twisted Scriptures Twisted Theology (Program #7) Verses: Acts 2:44-46, Acts 4:34-36, Acts 5:1-5. These verses do not teach socialism, redistribution of wealth, elimination of private property or communal living by this New Testament Church in Acts. This church in Acts is often used by liberals to say that Christians should embrace redistribution of wealth but they are wrong and they are twisting the Scriptures. I Corinthians 16:2 is further evidence that Christians of that time did in fact own private property. These Christians would sell property as needed to meet the needs of their fellow believers. These verses also show us that this church, which is being commended, was gathering for church on Sunday and not Saturday. It is a myth to say that New Testament believers today attend church on Sunday because we are following a practice established by the Church of Rome. 2 Corinthians 9:7-8 tells us that we are not to give out of compulsion. Verse: 2 Thessalonians 2:7: This verse does not teach that the Holy Spirit will be removed during the tribulation as some teach. The Holy Spirit does remove His restraining influence but not His presence. One reason we know this is because the Holy Spirit is necessary for salvation as described in John 3:5-6 and Titus 3:5. There will be great multitudes becoming believers during the tribulation as described in Revelation 7:4, 7:9, and 7:14. Verse: Matthew 24:14 does not teach that all the people groups of the world must be reached before the rapture can occur as some teach. Matthew 24:14 is referring to the Second Coming. While we desire to reach as many as possible with the Gospel even during the tribulation this is going to be done through incredible supernatural means that are not available to us in this Church Age. In fact, Revelation 14:6 tells us that an angel will preach from the heavens “to every nation, tribe, tongue, and people.” Verse: Philippians 12:12 does not teach that man must work for his salvation. Brannon begins to address this in this program and will complete his study on this with you in program #8. Topic: We take your calls.
