Well, you done good by staying with me long enough for me to think this through.

I can agree with that. And thank you so much for posting this because you taught me stuff.

You opened this up with Romans 8:1 that deals with walking in the spirit. This spirit is indeed a life form that has nothing to do with the man. When I am close to the spirit of Christ, then I will function as a partner with the Lord whereby it becomes a joint effort. The reason I cannot lust in...

We are on two completely different dimensions. The two different guys in the following statement are both walking by their flesh. One guy thinks he's correct and the other thinks he's breaking a rule. The one is a rule that Christians do only the things they are fully convinced in their own...

Paul did not tell us. He's referring to Jews and Gentiles... 9 What then? are we better than they? No, in no wise: for we have before proved both Jews and Gentiles, that they are all under sin; 10 As it is written, There is none righteous, no, not one:

You use these two verses together and they are not referring to the same thing. Romans 8:1 is referring to Christians who are walking in the spirit. Romans 14:23 is referring to those who are not walking in the spirit. Romans 8:1 cannot become Romans 14:23 by sinning or eating food or having...

There's nothing in the text of Romans 8:1 that says a Christian can sin.

1.) For you to say...The consequences, also, of your view is that you say people abide in Christ while they're sinning Means we are not on the same page because a Christian cannot sin in Christ. 2.) You say... How does it come about that "there is no condemnation for those in Christ", yet the...

Are you sure you are not Catholic?

Are Jehovah's Witness thrown off sites, banned, deleted, and censored? I was just thrown off a thread on this very site.

How I see John 8:58... Jesus did not literally exist before his conception in Mary, but he “existed” in the plan of God, and was foretold in prophecy. Prophecies of the coming redeemer start as early as Genesis 3:15, which was before Abraham. Jesus was “the one” the Savior, long before Abraham...

Can I get in on this? Can we read what Paul told us in context to see he's not referring to the Christian.

Hebrews 1:2 “ages.” The Greek word is the plural of aiōn (#165 αἰών ) and means “ages.” This verse is referring to the “ages” not the “world.” Vine’s Lexicon has an age, a period of time, marked in the N.T. usage by spiritual or moral characteristics, is sometimes translated world. The R.V...

This refers not to the person who condemns himself, but to bringing condemnation on him by doing what he allows in a way that is destructive to his brother. *** It does not say it brings condemnation on him. It says he that condemneth. No, this is not about faith in Christ. Nowhere in the...

We are on two different pages looking at the same verse. I don't see Romans 8:1 being related to Romans 14:23. Romans 14:22 is referring to humans who may or may not condemn themselves. Romans 14:22 22 Hast thou faith? have it to thyself before God. Happy is he that condemneth not himself in...

Romans 8:1 deals with walking in the spirit. I fear Christians everywhere think that means walking in their flesh and calling it spiritual. And they all say they got it from the Bible.

This is how I see it... “before all things.” The Greek word translated as before is the preposition pro (#4253 πρό). Pro can mean “before” in the sense of either space, time, or priority. The meaning here in Colossians 1:17 is that of rank or priority; Christ is before all things in that he...

We are not on the same page. I don't think the verse that says and Judas went and hanged himself is all that awesome. Could it be possible you are looking at this from mans point of view? That he has to keep something or he lives with condemnation? I'm looking at this from God's point of...

I rest my case on the part that you write well since you know the difference between manor and manner. But concerning the Scriptures... I'm an expert on the New Testament and I don't see a verse anywhere from Acts to Jude that teaches or even suggest that there was a Jesus before he was born...

You opened with an awesome verse that got my attention and I love you for it because I learned something after you got me looking at the verse. And believe me when I say not all Scripture is awesome. Many verses just kinda say you got your head up your butt or you are of the devil. But this...
