Born again = Righteous

[Robert Gwin]

Doing the will of God, that produces : Born again.

Here is the will.

"that you believe on Jesus whom God sent".

You do that, and you have done the "will".

Actually Be, Jesus pointed out in those verses that it is the doing of God's will that will lead to inheritance into God's Kingdom sir. In other words they will be granted everlasting life. You are quite correct believing in Jesus is part of that will, but keep in mind, those whom he rejected believed in him so much they were able to do works that you or I will likely never be able to do, but unfortunately they served God in their own way, instead of putting their efforts in what He wanted His people to do.

 

[Johann]

No problem, your relationship will not be the same as mine with God will it?

Lately people, like you, claim they have a hotline to heaven and having a conversation with God WITHOUT studying the Scriptures-how is the Ruach Hakodesh bring things to you remembrance when you "read the Bible [which is just a book] when it suits you?"
How is this possible when the Scriptures and the Christ is indissolubly echad/one?

Short answer-no, my relationship with Yeshua HaMashiach/Jesus Christ is not the same as you.

1Jn 4:1 Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world.

Chaverim, do not believe every ruach. [YIRMEYAH 29:8] But test the ruchot (spirits), if they be of Hashem, because many nevi'ei sheker have gone out into the Olam Hazeh.

Have a good day.

Do you believe that everyone will be saved Joe? You posted many verses to seem to indicate that sir, but I want to comment on one in particular since you put it in red, I believe you wanted to make a point with me:

Romans 10:13
Verse Concepts
for “Whoever will call on the name of the Lord will be saved.”

Who is the Lord that verse is talking about Joe?

 

[Ritajanice]

Lately people, like you, claim they have a hotline to heaven and having a conversation with God WITHOUT studying the Scriptures

That is not true...God is the one who leads me through scripture to understand it.....as I’ve said many times, only the Holy Spirit who talks to our spirit, through the word of God..can open up scripture.

Do you understand all of the scripture in the Bible?

And yes, I do have a hotline to God Through the Holy Spirit...I understand exactly what those people who are claiming this are saying...they have been birthed in the Spirit.

They have direct contact to God Through the Holy Spirit.they are born again...been birthed in the Spirit.

I completely understand what they are saying...

I have no idea what you are saying here with this scripture.

Maybe you can explain it in simple terms...many thanks.

As I have tried to explain...the Holy Spirit leads me through scripture...it sounds like you are working yourself through scripture...I may be wrong, I certainly don’t understand your logic.

My Bible is always open, I wait on the Lord to speak to me through it....I don’t have to work to understand the word of God in my own strength or my own understanding.

I understand much of Gods Word, especially about being born again,...he has spoken to my spirit over the years....and he has taught me much through the scriptures.....I couldn’t understand the word of God if I wasn’t born again....and even then, there is much I don’t understand, because he hasn’t revealed that particular scriptures to my spirit....he reveals his word to my heart/ spirit,not me.
I worry about nothing that I don’t understand in God’s word..why would I?....I’m born again and resting inhis word.

 

[Johann]

Maybe you can explain it in simple terms...many thanks.

We should read and study the Bible because it is totally reliable and without error. The Bible is unique among so-called "holy" books in that it does not merely give moral teaching and say, "Trust me." Rather, we have the ability to test it by checking the hundreds of detailed prophecies that it makes, by checking the historical accounts it records, and by checking the scientific facts it relates. Those who say the Bible has errors have their ears closed to the truth. Jesus once asked which is easier to say, "Your sins are forgiven you," or "Rise, take up your bed and walk." Then He proved He had the ability to forgive sins (something we cannot see with our eyes) by healing the paralytic (something those around Him could test with their eyes). Similarly, we are given assurance that God’s Word is true when it discusses spiritual areas that we cannot test with our senses by showing itself true in those areas that we can test, such as historical accuracy, scientific accuracy, and prophetic accuracy.

We should read and study the Bible because God does not change and because mankind’s nature does not change; it is as relevant for us as it was when it was written. While technology changes, mankind’s nature and desires do not change. We find, as we read the pages of biblical history, that whether we are talking about one-on-one relationships or societies, "there is nothing new under the sun" (Ecclesiastes 1:9). And while mankind as a whole continues to seek love and satisfaction in all of the wrong places, God—our good and gracious Creator—tells us what will bring us lasting joy. His revealed Word, the Bible, is so important that Jesus said of it, "Man does not live on bread alone, but by every word that comes from the mouth of God" (Matthew 4:4). In other words, if we want to live life to the fullest, as God intended, we must listen to and heed God’s written Word.

We should read and study the Bible because there is so much false teaching. The Bible gives us the measuring stick by which we can distinguish truth from error. It tells us what God is like. To have a wrong impression of God is to worship an idol or false god. We are worshiping something that He is not. The Bible tells us how one truly gets to heaven, and it is not by being good or by being baptized or by anything else we do (John 14:6; Ephesians 2:1-10; Isaiah 53:6; Romans 3:10-18, 5:8, 6:23, 10:9-13). Along this line, God’s Word shows us just how much God loves us (Romans 5:6-8; John 3:16). And it is in learning this that we are drawn to love Him in return (1 John 4:19).

The Bible equips us to serve God (2 Timothy 3:17; Ephesians 6:17; Hebrews 4:12). It helps us know how to be saved from our sin and its ultimate consequence (2 Timothy 3:15). Meditating on God’s Word and obeying its teachings will bring success in life (Joshua 1:8; James 1:25). God’s Word helps us see sin in our lives and helps us get rid of it (Psalm 119:9, 11). It gives us guidance in life, making us wiser than our teachers (Psalm 32:8, 119:99; Proverbs 1:6). The Bible keeps us from wasting years of our lives on that which does not matter and will not last (Matthew 7:24-27).

Reading and studying the Bible helps us see beyond the attractive "bait" to the painful "hook" in sinful temptations, so that we can learn from others' mistakes rather than making them ourselves. Experience is a great teacher, but when it comes to learning from sin, it is a terribly hard teacher. It is so much better to learn from others' mistakes. There are so many Bible characters to learn from, some of whom can serve as both positive and negative role models at different times in their lives. For example, David, in his defeat of Goliath, teaches us that God is greater than anything He asks us to face (1 Samuel 17), while his giving in to the temptation to commit adultery with Bathsheba reveals just how long-lasting and terrible the consequences of a moment’s sinful pleasure can be (2 Samuel 11).

The Bible is a book that is not merely for reading. It is a book for studying so that it can be applied. Otherwise, it is like swallowing food without chewing and then spitting it back out again—no nutritional value is gained by it. The Bible is God’s Word. As such, it is as binding as the laws of nature. We can ignore it, but we do so to our own detriment, just as we would if we ignored the law of gravity. It cannot be emphasized strongly enough just how important the Bible is to our lives. Studying the Bible can be compared to mining for gold. If we make little effort and merely "sift through the pebbles in a stream," we will only find a little gold dust. But the more we make an effort to really dig into it, the more reward we will gain for our effort.

You made a statement the Bible is just a book-and will read it when "it suits you"
Correct?
Seems you are now back-peddling-Correct?

 

[Johann]

As I have tried to explain...the Holy Spirit leads me through scripture...it sounds like you are working yourself through scripture...I may be wrong, I certainly don’t understand your logic.

That’s not a problem...I have my own personal relationship with God Through the Holy Spirit....God is a living Spirit, he’s not a book,..my spirit is born again, therefore I have a personal living relationship with him.

Brother Johann....if I was in prison, I wouldn’t need a Bible..why, because I am born again and know in my spirit that God indwells me...I also know he is in complete control of my safety....I would only need my living faith and I have that in Christ..by being birthed in the Spirit....his Spirit is Alive in my spirit....wherever I go....the Lord is with me in Spirit.

Hence this scripture...

Hebrews 4:12 NIV​

For the word of God is alive and active. Sharper than any double-edged sword, it penetrates even to dividing soul and spirit, joints and marrow; it judges the thoughts and attitudes of the heart.

 

[Ritajanice]

The one resorting to circular reasoning is you, no offense.

My answer is..the Bible is also the Living word of God..we know that through being birthed in the Spirit.

Yet so long as we have a bible , be in it and feasting daily upon it .
I notice more and more are casting aside the dire need of the importance of learning and reading scripture .
They are and have replaced it . God is with the lambs and even in prison and on the run HE is with us .
But so long as we have a bible we need to be dug in it . There are many being led by other spirits
which will speak partital truths and yet are leading them into another direction of another image of GOD and HIS CHRIST .
Get dug deep in that bible . Many of them are within even the very churches who cliam HIS NAME .

I get give you plenty testimonies how thankful hardened criminals, in prison, are in receiving a Bible-plenty.
Speaking from experience.
Praise God for the Gideon Bible Society and the Underground Church.

Heb 4:12 For the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any twoedged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.
Heb 4:13 Neither is there any creature that is not manifest in his sight: but all things are naked and opened unto the eyes of him with whom we have to do.

ζων γαρ ο λογος του θεου και ενεργης και τομωτερος υπερ πασαν μαχαιραν διστομον και διικνουμενος αχρι μερισμου ψυχης τε και πνευματος αρμων τε και μυελων και κριτικος ενθυμησεων και εννοιων καρδιας


intents. Greek. ennoia. Only here and 1Pe_4:1. The written Word is a sword (compare Eph_6:17), and the living Word has a sword (Rev_1:16; Rev_19:15). Once, and once only, has God used the word kritikos; thus confining it to His own Word as a "critic". That Word is to be man's Judge (Joh_12:48. Compare App-122and App-177). Yet man claims the word "critic" and dares to sit in judgment on that very Word which is to judge him, in what he terms "higher criticism", which is only human reasoning based on the deceit of his own heart (Jer_23:26).

"In the last day" man will be criticized (judged) by the same Word on which he now sits in judgment. "Dividing asunder of soul and spirit" means not only differentiating between that which is begotten of the flesh and that which is begotten of the Spirit (Joh_3:6) in the individual; but also between the natural (Greek. psuchikos) man and the spiritual (Greek. pneumatikos) man. See 1Co_2:13-15.

 

[amigo de christo]

My answer is..the Bible is also the Living word of God..we know that through being birthed in the Spirit.

My answer is why are so many claiming to hear FROM GOD and yet
they are teaching contrary to the God , to the Christ , to the apostels in the bible .
Yet they make the claim they are testing the spirits . Testing them against what , their emotions and what seems or feels right
OR are they actually testing them spirits against BIBLICAL SOUND DOCTRINE . THAT IS KEY my friend .
Many are fast perishing from lack of knowledge . And the many i speak of are coming from within even Churches themselves .
We better make SURE ITS JESUS , ITS GOD WE ARE FOLLOWING . ONE WAY TO DO THAT .
Man dont live by bread alone , BUT BY EVERY WORD OF GOD . We better get dug in those bibles
and find out exactly WHO or what we been following .
