The question is how to approach your answer. IF you are like some Christians, all verses are equally important.
If you are like other Christians, you will recognize that each verse can't hold the weight even though all of scriptures can be used to teach, rebuke, and otherwise edify the church.
As you can note in the first 5 chapters of Acts, there are 3 basic responses to Peter's message: Belief, unbelief, and Ananias' and Sapphira's response.
Acts 17:32 says: When they heard about the resurrection of the dead, some of them sneered, but others said, "We want to hear you again on this subject."
So regardless of whether Peter or Paul was giving the message, there were 3 responses: belief, unbelief and something in the middle. Your verse, 2 Cor 11:15 deals with the middle verse by placing it on the side of unbelief.
So like the first Passover, there are only two choices: obedience or disobedience. If you believed Moses, you would put the blood of the lamb on your door and risk being killed by the people who had enslaved you and make you throw your own male baby in the Nile. Or you could believe in Pharaoh and risk the death angel.
It isn't plausible to say to Pharaoh and his army the day after Passover, you didn't know how the blood got on the door or that putting the blood on the door meant something other than you were a follower of Moses.
It isn't plausible to say to the death angel, you didn't have time and that you were just getting to it. A line in the sand was drawn and there is no middle ground.
At the same time, what type of test(s) can you give candidates for baptism that will prove beyond a shadow of a doubt that the candidate has truly given their heart to Jesus so that you only have true believers in a church? What can any “Babe in Christ” do besides mature?
Hope this helps

i replaced into in extreme college from 2007-2011 the favored young ones have been cliche and not on the comparable time. a million. They placed on AE, Aeropostal, and so on; they have coach bags and wore a great sort of makeup 2. They have been the youngsters of docs, legal specialists, the prosperous people 3. soccer payers have been as stupid as bricks and on occasion not the main accepted. Being athletic (no remember the sport) made you extra probably to grow to be accepted, some thing I on no account rightly understood. yet another oddity replaced into that many people in marching band have been accepted. i.e. they not often sense below the nerdy, awkward stereotype. 4. you moreover mght defined the favored pupils ok as that it replaced into comparable right here too. ( popular, humorous, slutty on occasion, they drink, do sexual stuff to get interest, pass type yet get good grades). I continuously theory it replaced into strange what proportion accepted young ones have been athletic and on the A-honor roll. The cheese transforming into on trees factor is humorous, yet i believe that could desire to take place. There are people who're so stupid, so, so stupid and that's worse in young ones.

If you don't play your part then you are left with their part - not much of a party.
