When Christianity is proposing execution of others based upon lies, and wild unsupported conspiracy theories, it is no longer Christianity. It is simply the enemy inside men's hearts, blinding them to the truth that the wrath of man worketh not the righteousness of God. God awaken us. We so...

Surgical removal?? Really? So assassination is the Christian's new weapon to bring good about in the earth? Do you even hear yourself? And just as the Word predicts, there will be those in the last day who will be so blinded by their flesh that when they kill others, they will think they do God...

And that may well be the case. But here is what we have a hard time accepting. When do we actually receive our salvation? Who are those who receive it? Is it not those who endure to the end, receiving the end of their faith, even the salvation of their souls? The truth is, we prove we are the...

Of course! How can one ignore all the road signs, the directions, the instructions in righteousness, the warnings, and still have confidence that He that began a good work in them was somehow obligated to still perform it, even if we dig in our heels and refuse to repent of willful sin? Why have...

Consider the main verse discussed... Hebrews 10:26. These were people who WERE sanctified, and had tasted of the goodness of God. They had the good seed actually sprout but through neglect, the weeds choked out the life of the vine, and no fruit was produced. blessings, Gids

And did all saints get this praise and encouragement? Were some not told by Paul that he stood in doubt of them? Could the Laodecians claim Philippians 1:6 and yet not heed the warning they were given? Just something to think about..... blessings to you, Farouk, Gids

I am sorry you feel that way about my motives but far worse about your acceptance concerning the OSAS teaching. You mentioned you do not think I fully understand the change of heart you speak about. I truly do, and it is far more than we have ever considered. Here, weakness is not a hindrance...

So, back to the four opinions of the verse warning us of the consequences of willful sin in our lives. I could give some credence to the OSAS teaching, even with Hebrews 10:26, if it were not for the fact there are over a dozen other very clear verses, from every apostle, Peter, Paul and John...

So, what are the consequences of our error, of we indeed are the ones who are found believing a lie? Well, if I am of the "need for continued faith to insure our salvation" crowd, if I am wrong, and everyone who received Jesus had every sin blotted out, ever the blatantly willful ones, WOW...

I think a critical proponent is the defense that Hebrews 10:26, that the "willful sin" verse does not mean what it says at face value. Names have been given for us to Google.... four I think..... four men who have their opinion of the truth of this verse. And ultimately, their opinion is...

Consider a point if you will. What is crucifying the flesh and mortifying the deeds of the body are two separate things? You see, we are told we were crucified.... and died.... when Jesus died. The truth is, we are never told to crucify the flesh. As a matter of fact, Paul tells us in Romans 8...

How does one not fall back into human effort.... i.e. the flesh trying to kill the flesh..... in ones attempts to walk as a new creature? Theoretically, it may be a done deal, but practically speaking, there is a lot of confusion out there. blessings, Gideon

So, if Christians are found still battling these things, does this men they are not saved, or are they carnal believers, or something else? If someone is born again, do they automatically find victory over the sins of the flesh? Or is there something that must happen to "activate" ones new...

This is an amazing scripture. Would you mind sharing what that means to you? No baiting. Truly curious. Thanks in advance. Gideon

Thank you Farouk. We awoke Christmas morning to 4" of snow and sunny skies. I am 71 and it was my first white Christmas. It was awesome. blessings to you, Gids

So how exactly does that work? I pray I am not coming off in a condescending way. I promise, that is not my intent at all. I truly want your opinion as to how it works. How does one concentrate on righteousness and holiness? Are we not to seek these from God, hunger after them? The scriptures...

Brother, the assumption many make is that belief is a one time prayer, but they misunderstand that faith in Jesus is a walk, a relationship, for the just shall live by faith. If one is truly one of His sheep, will they not endure in the faith, eyes fixed upon their beloved savior? Do you not...

Exactly. And one day, I pray you see me for who I really am, not pregnant and not a legalist. blessings to you dear Addy, Gideon

Heck, if you think I am a legalist now, you would have been over the moon for the me I was fourteen years ago, lol. blessings, new me

So this was overcoming evil with good? Just place him on Ignore. blessings, Gideon
