Do you believe we Christians can actually be righteous, or are we still filth with imputed righteousness of Jesus covering us?

Keeping LOVE does not allow us to be liars. You seem to think that if we are under a stronger law than the Ten Commandments that we will break the Ten Commandments. But that's silly if the law now is STRONGER!

Read it in context. It is not talking about the Sabbath anymore than it was talking about Joshua and the Promised Land. The conclusion of the chapter is about Grace. It is not of our works, like keeping a physical day, but trust in God, which the Israelites didn't do; they turned to other gods...

Here is why we seldom agree. You usually only put the imputed righteousness of paragraph one, but not the truth of paragraph two. Righteousness had to be imputed to Abraham, but not to us. Abraham's imputed righteousness had nothing to do with Jesus, just obedience and trust in God. Then...

Just to clarify: Self-righteous would be our willpower keeping the written law that we are opposed to. Righteousness through Christ is the new nature gifted to us empowered by the Holy Spirit. That is all Him.

Of course righteousness is still required. Revelation 22:11. But not the old fashioned way of memorizing a law that was in opposition to your nature. Jesus put a different nature inside us that was already righteous because the laws of God are written on our heart and we are perfectly aligned to...

A Christian has the same authority that Jesus did while on earth to cast out demons and devils from people. We couldn't do that if they no longer existed.

To you, yes. But he hasn't from the world yet.

Satan is still alive and well for those who have not escaped his darkness through belief in Jesus. 1 John 5:18

The Law of Moses, the Ten Commandments, had to be kept with willpower of a nature that was opposed to the Law. Romans 7:13. Jesus places His own Spirit inside us that gives us a nature like His that is aligned with the eternal law of God because He has written then on our heart. 1 John 3:5-9...

Seeing as Goliath was thought to be nephilim, then he is a demon now?

The letters to the seven churches most certainly apply to us. At least the last four do: Thyatira (Roman Catholics and Orthodox) Jezebel is the goddess the Church has named Mary. Sardis is the Reformation with the first teachers preaching dead doctrines that do not cause life, but later in that...

Now that I've walked with the Lord for a long time, I have discovered that true repentance is not something that needs to be done daily as some believe, but is something you do once to be filled with the Holy Spirit. From then on, just obey your conscience where He lives, and don't do anything...

No it doesn't. I pulled up the site for different translators of the Peshitta and George Lamas was by far the worst. He even twisted verses to mean the opposite of what it truly meant. And as far as Heb. 4 it is evident that Lamas makes the scriptures say what HE believes, and not what they...

This is why Jesus said, "Few there are that find it."

I already answered this in #489

Huh? What do you believe is the Law of Liberty? Liberty from what?

Don't be absurd! How is that loving your neighbor? He would keep himself for his own wife that he loves.

The Ten Commandments was the first covenant, not the new covenant. What is written on our hearts is to LOVE God with all our strength, mind and heart, and to LOVE our neighbor. The Ten Commandments was based on that eternal law, but fell short of it. You think that hate was always part of the...

That is not what the Peshitta means. Only the translation of George Lamas is biased that it is the original Sabbath and not another one.
