The Bible was done by 3 men who did not know Hebrew or Greek. They did not actually translate the Bible. They revised it and eliminated anything in the Bible that did not support their theology. They will not reveal who thess 3 men are, because it would show us taht hey were not qualified to translate the Bible.
One example is from Jn 1:1, which says In the beginning was the 'Word, and the Word was with God and the word was God.
The versions says...the word, not capitalized, was a god.
There are many more such examples but I have forgotten them. You can find them if you ar really interested.
How do you know this for sure?...Where did you get this information from?...
God is a person - Hebrews 9:24
God's spirit is Not a person - Numbers 11:17,25
Things 'happen' when God sends forth His spirit -> Psalm 104:30; Acts 2:33; 4:31; 2nd Peter 1:21
God's spirit is found in Scripture - John 15:26-27; John 17:17 - Not as a person, but as an energizing force for good.
As radio waves are Not a person, but transmits a message, God's spirit transmits or communicates His will to us.
In the name of 'scriptural common sense', we baptise in the name of the spirit.
In the ' name of the law ', so to speak, given at Matthew 28:18-20 we baptise to do God's will.
So, with authority and in recognition of God's spirit people are baptised and follow the way of Jesus.
if God's Spirit is Word, and the Book is not Word, don't you mean that you baptized people into the Law, and not the Spirit?
baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit,
I'm sure they'll sense that and appreciate your sincerity, even if you part ways still in disagreement with their message.
This is a good enough thing, to part ways agreeing to not be in agreement; don't get me wrong. However, Paul gave us a model for this exact thing, when he avoided the Jerusalem Apostles for 3 years after getting the Word, and then Going to Jerusalem and finding themselves in agreement. So, if you part ways disagreeing, you are not in agreement on the Word, you are merely in disagreement on the Book.
God even uses sinful men and women to do some of His work, that He could do better.
The ministry of angles is to render service to those who would inherit salvation(Heb 1:14). God was allowing those angels to rescue Lot and his family.
God even uses sinful men and women to minister to the unsaved and to the saved.

ya, it is nice, huh. Seems like the 1nd and 3rst ones would...somehow...qualify the 2th one, though.
I have asked my students who did something when I already knew who did it. I have asked them why they did something when I knew why they did it. The question was for the student to confess, to teach them. God knows all things and was bringing Adam and Eve to accountability. God bless.
Like Shana just said... Imagine a mother finding her toddler covered with cookie crumbs and chocolate. She asks, "Have you been in the cookie jar?" even though she knows darned well he has been. God wanted an accounting from Adam himself.
