And he (The Lord) said unto Moses, Come up unto the Lord, you, and Aaron, Nadab, and Abihu, and seventy of the elders of Israel; and worship afar off. Ex. 24:1 Here is another verse that is used...or was used...by rabbis to show that there is another power in heaven referred to as Lord (YHVH)...

It depends. The book is very technical about the subject. It's scholarly...more than it is contemporary Christian accessible. I find it "useful" as I am interested in the groundwork of establishing the subject of the "two powers" teaching. Even the Hebrew in it is written in a code that has to...

You are not understanding what the gift is. It is NOT immunity from prosecution for sin. Being born of the Spirit doesn't change the law of God. The gift is a sample of grace that gives a person an idea of what to seek after and give themselves over to....the way of God in Christ. Even if a...

It is a good thing to give thanks unto the Lord, and to sing praises unto thy name, O Most High: Ps. 92:1 Thank Jesus and sing praises to the Father.

The wages of sin is still death. Grace is the power OVER sin...not God turning a blind eye to sin. For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord. Rom. 6:3 Eternal life overcomes temporal life because of God's power (grace)

The only danger that this teaching poses is to traditional Judaism...oh, and maybe also to dogmatic Catholic ideological revisionism and control. It should be something for actual Christians to embrace...that the Jews already had an understanding of a God in Two Persons...before the coming of...

You are just being religious and quick to judge. The heresy is the denial of Jesus as God. I am upholding the truth of apostolic Christianity. AND...what is plainly stated in the bible. Jesus was always IN God and God was always in Him...because He is God along with His Father. One Spirit in TWO...

In this episode we investigate what was a legitimate, if controversial, teaching (mishnah) held by some rabbis before the coming of Christ. Also covered is how the "the 2 Powers of Heaven" controversy was relegated to the level of heresy in the 2nd century by various Jewish councils based on the...

There is a tremendous lack of disciples in the modern churches...and discipleship. True discipleship...the kind whereby people give their lives freely over to God in Christ...to be sheep in the midst of wolves. To live from the inner man when the whole world is vying for an outer man...

Then by all means use that idea of going over a second time to complete the process as an exhortation to go to God for the full measure of grace. The "second blessing" as it were. Let Jesus be both the author and finisher of faith as far as you are concerned.

In the framework of making disciples....I used to use this little story. A young man went to China to learn martial arts and found the best master he could find...and asked him...how long will it take to make me as good as you are in the art? The master replied, 10 years. Perplexed, the young...

That's why I exhort those who have had a beginning in Christ to now go to Him for the whole measure...the finishing. Many nowadays will just assume and presume that going to God to purchase the full measure of grace is not necessary...using what one already has to try finishing their own...

I think a spiritual man would not make someone think that he is liberal leaning one day, and conservative leaning another day. It can look like a mix, I suppose. A Conservative will see a spiritual man as liberal or inclusive. A Liberal type person could see a spiritual man as being more...

Jesus Christ is the foundation ...not us or even Christ in us. Our treasure is to be in heaven...not here. The reason why people build with unauthorized materials is because they think they are free to build as they see fit....from themselves. Wood can even seem solid. But human reasoning has...

Too busy casting down imaginations you mean. Before one can build on a solid foundation, all the wood, hay and stubble shacks need to be torn down. It's too bad you identify with the part that needs to go to the cross. Preserving what God would cut apart. Think Agag.

LOL I'm not the snowflake here. And try not to be resentful of my brotherly correction. The full measure of grace costs us everything. And we know we have made the purchase when we are translated into the heavenly empowered walk. To walk as Jesus walked. That becomes our testimony. But to name...

Claiming what you want...like in a cafeteria. Any amount of reading skills and honesty will reveal that ADC did that very thing. So the false accusation is from yourself and a delusion that says one thing and does another. You don't believe them. Blind, and naked Jesus says. And you will...

Claiming righteousness for oneself. I know that there are many here who are afraid to admit how they see themselves. Naming and claiming righteousness for themselves. No such honesty among those who claim and then deny it where that is more convenient. But here is an example of a namer and...

I claim that correction is only seen as being judgmental by those who still love their own rebellious ways.

Worldly people will never find the balance between Liberalism and Conservatism...unless it is forced upon them. A Christian is to be neither liberal or conservative but rather be spiritual in Christ.
