    Why do we need priests?

    Revelation 1:6 And made us a kingdom, priests to his God and Father, to him be glory and dominion forever and ever. Amen. Romans 1:7 E To all those in Rome who are loved by God and called to be saints: Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ. if you are a born...

    My understanding of sin

    understanding the difference of practicing sin as a lifestyle versus stumbling in sin and being convicted and repenting is a good determination of our condition

    When Tempted, Giving over to [Willful] Sin equates to Eternal Death, not Eternal Life.

    this is a great video that explains it better then I could. once again I am not with out sin, I am not perfect. But I am changed, and want to please my heavenly father, more then I want to sin. Being born again is when we hate our sin nature instead of embracing it like we did before being born...

    great question because I bet a lot people dont really know what the bible calls sin and have there own definition, I am sure everyone here know it but I will post it for the sake of on lookers James 4:17 So whoever knows the right thing to do and fails to do it, for him it is sin. Sin can be...

    Jesus didn't take away our sin, only our punishment

    Jesus us frees us from our sin nature, at one time we were enslaved to sin and could not stop if we wanted. But those who are born again now have a choice not sin, we are no longer enslaved to sin. We no longer want to sin, we want to please our heavenly father. We can conquer are flesh...

    The myth of grace-only & easy-believism shattered forever

    thank you for your reply, I seek only truth, not needing to right, I hope all do the same. I very much respectfully disagree with you freind. Man is not to be trusted, example look at all the child molesters that are catholic priest, brakes my heart to see anyone putting there faith in man over...

    The myth of grace-only & easy-believism shattered forever

    I will leave you with what the bible tells us in plain language to do when we sin. very clear instructions, no mention of going to a "priest". 1 John 2:1 My little children, I am writing these things to you so that you may not sin. But if anyone does sin, we have an advocate with the Father...

    The myth of grace-only & easy-believism shattered forever

    Thanks for your reply,, I respectfully disagree. Let me explain a little further. As I was catholic most of my life and went to confession on a regular basis, yet I committed the sins over and over. If a person is sinning over and over, and doing the same sins, they are still a slave to sin...

    The myth of grace-only & easy-believism shattered forever

    thank you for your honest response brother, for me (being a x-catholic) I always thought that also. But I always repeated the sins weekly, I was never freed from them, so I was still enslaved to the sins. Then I stopped going to confession, prayed to God directly and repented with all my heart...

    The myth of grace-only & easy-believism shattered forever

    I ask with respect brother, do believe a priest can forgive your sins? or that he can act as a mediator between you and God?

    The myth of grace-only & easy-believism shattered forever

    My heart brakes for anyone who puts there faith in any church instead of God and the word of God is our final and all authority on spiritual matters. I was once a slave to sin, when I was catholic I confessed my sins to a man, who deceived me into thinking he had the power to forgive my sins...

    What's The First Thing You Are Going To Do When You Get To Heaven?

    The myth of grace-only & easy-believism shattered forever

    John 3:36 Whoever believes in the Son has eternal life; whoever does not obey the Son shall not see life, but the wrath of God remains on him. so many churches teach the part about believe in the son, and leave out the part of obedience. the truth is out there, just not at many churches...
