The phrase “sinful nature” was formerly used in versions such as the NIV to translate the word sarx in Paul's writings. * But that word simply means “flesh.” Many times it's used to describe the human body, for example, when Paul says that Jesus “appeared in the flesh” (that is, he became...

Since like begets like then what we have in Christ is His likeness to the Father (spiritual) and likeness to Mary (flesh). Those are the prerequisites of the 2 natures. Perhaps the y chromosome was missing from His dna, somehow leaving behind the sin nature, but of this is speculation. What...

No thanx

Jehovah's Witness question: Who do you think the archangel Michael is, according to Daniel 10:13, 21, Daniel 12:1, Jude 9 and 1 Thessalonians 4:16? Did you know that Jesus is the archangel Michael? My answer:The archangel Michael is simply who the Bible says he is. He is the archangel Michael...

Christians all are the widow of satan and just as all the widows were at that time incapable of meeting their needs themselves, we also are incapable of meeting our own spiritual needs. The food is the good news but it's as the Holy Spirit that ministers to our needs, regardless of the...

Words are spirit and life needs a study of the woman at the well to establish understanding. jm2c

Pointing to the Father rather than away from Him is not what I consider to be a smart Aleck (female equivalent, whatever that may be) I’ll leave the thread, not much happening here.

New wineskins for old ... when the old husband is dead the woman is free to remarry. Iow, Romans 7:3 So then if, while her husband liveth, she be married to another man, she shall be called an adulteress: but if her husband be dead, she is free from that law; so that she is no adulteress...

Well if your referring to the outer man being broken, as in a contrite heart then yah. Think Gideon’s clay vessel broken to reveal the lights within to overcome enemies.

Your missing the fine tuning of what vessels are able to be clean. Hath not the potter power over the clay, of the same lump to make one vessel unto honour, and another unto dishonour That every one of you should know how to possess his vessel in sanctification and honour; If a man therefore...

"Sarah allegorically signifies grace” yes. ↑ The difference in Nt rather than OT typology is applied to carnal vs not so carnal practises iirc Please clarify. NT may be shadowing the twain becoming one thru the Jew and Gentile (believers and unbelievers OT) but the allegory is about carnal...

I don’t think it speculation to apply that to law-keepers whether they be birthed into a Jewish family or not. The difference in Nt rather than OT typology is applied to carnal vs not so carnal practises iirc I believe it’s in the scripture in question. Thanks, I quite thought so myself.

Abraham had at least 4-5 sons, some that may have been from the east (and perhaps the wise men? fft), but Ishmael signifies Hagar who was from Egypt, to be technical. She was the only woman to name God “God sees us” but the reference in Galatians 4 is to those who are born under law. Which in...

I have no idea what he’s talking about.

Sorry to butt in to this but the very fact that it’s on the same subject as the last post makes it rather disconcerting. The baptism of water is to repentance re Hebrews 6 oncely given. That it is the baptism of Christian understanding according to the breath of Jesus being before Pentecost, and...
