The power of the flesh.

The truth is too deep and nuanced for dogmatic believers to get. 1. What must one do to INHERIT eternal life? Jesus said: "Obey the commandments" (right here the whole of modern Christendom fails miserably in contradicting Jesus' own words.) 2. What must one do to be saved FROM sin? Believe...

Jesus is speaking to the Jews who are responsible for putting Him on the cross. He said that if the works He did would have been done in Sodom, even they would have repented. So then the unbelieving in God's house are under condemnation unless they repent. And that includes modern believers who...

Amen. There will only be unity when the Spirit of God is submitted to rather than personal agendas be they religious or otherwise.

You would be rewarded for such....as long as you are being honest. Religious conditioning. Actual spiritual experiences. Indoctrinations... Human understandings. Diligent searchings in the bible. each person must decide the depth at which a person is convinced of what they believe. Shallow...

Your shallow understanding is missing Paul's message which is far deeper than you can comprehend. Peter warns people of twisting Paul's words. You have made a ministry out of that twisting. Have you considered a career in dancing? :Happy: Dogmatic twaddle. You are looking to make religious...

Are you saying that your shallow assessments are safer? A lot of false teachers claim that.

Your error is very great. You put yourself in God's place to declare yourself righteous, saved and glorified. (a few like that here) No greater pride or false hubris can be displayed than what you so arrogantly claim...AND you insult those who try helping you out of your very obvious future...

So you think it's wise to lean on one's own understanding?? Are we the final arbiters of what God will honour? Or is that in God's hands? Lean NOT on your own understanding. Turn your thinking around whereby you are not in God's place. Humble yourself and perhaps find a good end. This is a...

What do you mean by "saved" An after life inheritance or a victorious walk over sin? You are jumping over all reality and forcing a false conclusion. Being born again in the Spirit qualifies us for the race of faith. We are not guaranteed a good outcome for this. Out of the SAME LUMP are BOTH...

I think it's normal that ideas are discussed with a certain amount of incredulity regarding the gospel...which is revolutionary in its scope. People tend to downplay the revolutionary nature of the coming of Christ, and the subsequent establishment of God's kingdom in our space. When a deeper...

God is holy and righteous. He is very patient and understanding. He bears the burdens of the righteous. The wicked come to a bad end. God is love. But He is also holy. If we refuse to act from love, we have no place in a kingdom that is based on love.

Not so a heavenly Father. We need to fear the Lord to keep to the right path. Otherwise we will slack.

God can save as He wishes. The danger is to assume we will be exonerated for what we permit. If we are looking for guarantees on judgment day then we are barking up the wrong tree. The bible teaches us to fear the Lord. The experience of salvation by grace through faith is the victory over sin...

Are we to strive ourselves for perfection or strive to enter into Christ who knew no sin?

Not incapable.....we are always like a ball in play. In Christ we have no interest in the flesh. The key to not sinning is not by trying not to sin...but just remaining in Christ....where there is no sin. In Him is no sin. Simple enough. Unless you are looking for a Jesus that is a minister of...

Eradication means it is gone for good. Suspension means you don't have it for a time, or maybe longer. If you get a suspended drivers license, does that mean it has been eradicated? Not at all. One is gone forever and the other has been "remitted" ...pushed into the future. The possibility...

If we comfort ourselves (self-generated) with a religious certainty then we don't need the comfort that comes from God. We are to fear God and depend on Him to comfort us. Notice what the early church experienced... “Then had the churches rest throughout all Judaea and Galilee and Samaria, and...

Enter into Christ to walk as He walked in His victory over sin...in His perfection. The alternative is to remain humble, fearing the Lord...and carrying your own burden (cross) of sinful flesh around in a meek surrender...not judging others or defending yourself. Whether we are present or...

No one knows their end. Being more certain just makes you more surprised if you fail. Fearing the LORD is better than certainty. Our certainty is in His character to judge righteously. :) Only God knows. Maybe your mother is onto something that others have missed? God will not judge us based on...
