I believe that the saint who is perfect is not going to think they are perfect. Why? Because Jesus is the One who has gotten them there righteously speaking, and they of themselves alone are nothing without God. They will always think they can do more or better for the Lord, as well. As for...

If grace is all that saves, then why did Jesus agree with the lawyer that to love God and love your neighbor is a part of inheriting eternal life? Why did the apostle Paul back him up by saying that if any man does not agree with the words of Jesus Christ and the doctrine according to...

I was quoting an actual Bible verse. 2 Corinthians 7:1 says: “…let us cleanse ourselves from all filthiness of the flesh and spirit, perfecting holiness in the fear of God.” It’s talking to the reader/believer and it says, let us cleanse ourselves from all filthiness of the flesh and spirit...

Nowhere did I say grace grows. We are to grow in grace is what I said, and I said this is related to Titus 2:11-12 in that God’s grace teaches us to deny ungodliness and that we should live righteously and godly in this present world. This also fits the context: 2 Peter 3:17-18 ”Ye therefore...

God’s Word will not return void (Isaiah 55:11). The Watch Tower organization and their religion is not God’s Word. The New World Translation is also not God’s Word, as well (Because it contradicts things posted on their own JW website).

No chest beating here. I am nothing and Christ is everything. Any or all good that is done in the life of a believer is from Christ (Who is God). I also don’t make the rules. God does. I did not write the Bible on the standard of righteousness for the saints. God did. It has nothing to do...

I am not despising you. I am commanded by God to love the person and yet hate the false beliefs or sins.

@Eternally Grateful As for 1 Corinthians 3:15 that says, ”If any man's work shall be burned, he shall suffer loss: but he himself shall be saved; yet so as by fire.” Well, Paul says before the parable, "you are God's building." So we are the materials that make up the building. The work is...

Grace, peace, and love to you and Dan in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ. It is by no means personal why I said what I did. It also not something exclusive to Dan alone, either. Most Bible Alone believing Christians today who hold to a view similar as Dan when it comes to Soteriology and...

No. I am merely trying to show that if one believes in a "Sin and Still Be Saved Type Belief" (Granted you claim this is not Hyper Grace, but you do see 1 John 1:8 as saying you must sin again at some point again in the future - of which you believe is done occasionally) then one will justify...

2 Corinthians 7:1 sounds like one going through a process to cleanse themselves from the filthiness of the flesh and spirit and them perfecting holiness in the fear of God.

Ephesians 5:25-27 says, “…even as Christ also loved the church, and gave himself for it; That he might sanctify and cleanse it with the washing of water by the word, That he might present it to himself a glorious church, not having spot, or wrinkle, or any such thing; but that it should be holy...

May the Lord Jesus Christ bless you abundantly (Despite our disagreement on the faith involving the Lord Jesus Christ and His Word).

I believe Ephesians 2:8-9 is talking about Initial Salvation because…. #1. Ephesians 2:1 says we are quickened (made alive). This happens one time in our life as a believer when we first are saved. #2. God’s grace is gift we receive. Gifts are received one time. This again is Initial...

Thank you for sharing your experience. My experience with popular secular worldly movies and shows could not clearly be seen until I made the decision to put them away and simply follow Jesus Christ and His good ways. I could not see that Daredevil dressed up as the devil and that being wrong...

Anyways, the best verse that answers this thread Topic question is 1 Corinthians 15:10. Grace basically gives us the ability to do the work. It’s why the woman anointed Jesus feet with her tears and she loved him much by her actions. She loved much because she was forgiven much. Grace changed...

What’s your opinion of Seinfeld as a Christian? Do you think the TV show promotes only Christian values or does it promote sinful things? It would not matter what different intentions of why a person would post an image from this series. They could have done so for different reasons that may be...

It matters not your intentions. The fact of the matter is that it is still a promotion of a TV series that is sinful (regardless of your original intentions). Do you see the series as sinful? Yes or no? If I knew something could lead another person into sin, why would I promote such a...

Not at all. My argument with the Bible is solid and nobody here really addressed the verses I put forth to them. My point of the avatar is merely to show that it is incorrect for a Christian to promote a worldly sinful TV show (Whether that was their intention or not is besides the point). If...

Proverbs 27:6 “Faithful are the wounds of a friend; but the kisses of an enemy are deceitful.” Proverbs 13:24 “He that spareth his rod hateth his son: but he that loveth him chasteneth him betimes.” Again, what do you think happened with the fornicating believer in the church in 1 Corinthians...
