American Patriot-
Can you back up with Scripture the 'two' of everything that you mentioned?
"[FONT="](11) For the scripture saith, Whosoever believeth on him shall not be ashamed."
What scripture was he referring to if you believe this passage is about Jesus as opposed to the Father?

So you're saying that when Paul said "The scripture sayeth" he was referring to his own writings? Interesting. Did he know they were scripture at that time?
Once again, there is a difference between "Lord" as a title, and "LORD "as replacement for the Tetragrammaton. David was called "lord". Calling Jesus "Lord" is not the same as "THE LORD".
Quite simply, I asked what scripture Paul was referring to, and you quote his epistles.
If you think Paul was referring to his own epistles, that's your belief.
Please explain what Galatians 3:28 and Col 3:11 have anything to do with it.
If you want to talk about dodging questions, who is the "Last Adam", who is the "Life giving Spirit"?
Quite simply, you believe that Paul was referring to his own epistles when he says "As the scripture says".
The word "Believeth on" means "accepts/is persuaded by".
The word "believe in" has been murkied, it's original meaning in its context to Jesus means "obey and follow the teachings of and accept as the Christ".
Hmm, I never had anything to do with the last man Adam or life giving spirit but you dodged so many points I could quote you on if you would like!
Also..
But the Bible teaches there is just one spirit:
1Co_6:17 But he that is joined unto the Lord is *** one spirit ***.
1Co_12:13 For by *** one Spirit *** are we all baptized into one body, whether we be Jews or Gentiles, whether we be bond or free; and have been all made to drink into *** one Spirit ***.
Eph_2:18 For through him we both have access by *** one Spirit *** unto the Father.
Eph_4:4 There is one body, and *** one Spirit ***, even as ye are called in one hope of your calling;
Who is this one Spirit that is in us?
Ephesians 4:6
(6) One God and Father of all, who is above all, and through all, and in you all.
Romans 8:9
(9) But ye are not in the flesh, but in the Spirit, if so be that the Spirit of God dwell in you. Now if any man have not the Spirit of Christ, he is none of his
I confess that Jesus is Christ, and I believe that God raised him up from the dead, and I believe that his teachings are real whether I perfectly adhere to them or not, that's what the meaning is.
You can't even remember the argument about the "First and the Last', I asked multiple times who is the "Last Adam" and why he is called a "Life giving" ("Quickening in the KJV" Spirit.
One spirit is one spirit. A separate spirit. The Last Adam is the "Life Giving Spirit". I can count how many times you both jumped from that.
Again, I was not the one who you were speaking too! If you want proof I can provide!
What scripture was Paul referring to? His own epistles?
Once again.......
What scripture was Paul referring to? His own epistles?
If the "Life Giving Spirit" is the "Last Adam", what does that tell you?:
And that message is the very message about faith that we preach: 9If you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. 10For it is by believing in your heart that you are made right with God, and it is by confessing with your mouth that you are saved. 11As the Scriptures tell us, “Anyone who trusts in him will never be disgraced.”e 12Jew and Gentilef are the same in this respect. They have the same Lord, who gives generously to all who call on him. 13For “Everyone who calls on the name of the LORD will be saved.”g”g
