Did you know that verses 21-23 was about 19-20??? Let's stop all the nasty, sarcastic posts and responses and grow up! 19 Every tree that does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire. 20 Therefore by their fruits you will know them. 21 “Not everyone who says to Me, ‘Lord...

There was a time when I was like you. But when I was finally born again of the Spirit, I was shocked to realize I had not been saved for 30 years!

@David in NJ cleanse her with the washing of water by the word, That is pre-sanctification.

It really only took righteousness to be saved in the Old Testament. Jesus as the Author and Finisher of our faith produces that in us in the New Covenant when he writes the laws on our new born again nature after we repent and are cleansed of all unrighteousness. Seeing as the rich young ruler...

Did you read John 17? Wives back then were ignorant and illiterate. Husbands became born again first usually because they could understand. He is talking about bringing a wife to the Lord through knowledge of the Word.

John 17 mentions sanctification, but not as a continuing process. We are set apart, meaning we belong to Him. How many times do we BECOME born again? Have you never heard of glorification? Read John 17 again slowly.

You've spoken incorrectly. Being born again of the Spirit has everything to do with God's law because our new nature is where God writes His laws. It is not legal to break God's laws as you imply. Romans 3:31 31 Do we then make void the law through faith? Certainly not! On the contrary, we...

Yes, sinners need to be sanctified, but God doesn't need to continue setting us apart. We ARE set apart when He cleanses us of all unrighteousness called justification. If sanctification was a process why isn't it mentioned here with the rest? And look what IS mentioned. 29 For whom He...

Glorification. Conformed to the image of Christ. Romans 8:29-30 Note: sanctified is not there because as soon as we are justified, we are set apart.

Romans 7:5-6 5 For when we were in the flesh, the sinful passions which were aroused by the law were at work in our members to bear fruit to death. 6 But now we have been delivered from the law, having died to what we were held by, so that we should serve in the newness of the Spirit and not in...

My husband divorced me in 2002 to marry the wife of his best friend. He didn't have cause to divorce me, so even though he's married to her, I'm married to him. I haven't dated or even kissed someone since. I will stay alone. Isaiah 54:5

you're saying that someone of another religion can never become a Christian, because they've already blasphemed the Holy Spirit. That is not true.

Oh, you mean Romans 10:17. The context starts earlier. 14 How then shall they call on Him in whom they have not believed? And how shall they believe in Him of whom they have not heard? And how shall they hear without a preacher? 15 And how shall they preach unless they are sent? As it is...

The Spirit is either on the outside of us DRAWING us to Christ through circumstances where we come in contact with those who can tell us about Christ (Romans 10:17), but once we repent we receive the gift of the Holy Spirit and He comes into our heart and mind to transform us into the image of...

Yes, but never did they blaspheme the Holy Spirit and could not accept Jesus before they died. They didn't KNOW the Holy Spirit like a born again of the Spirit Christian does to even be able to blaspheme against Him. That's the difference. See?

What we must work on is maturing ALL the fruit of the Spirit. Don't you agree? Look at what Peter says in 2 Peter 1:9 (the maturing of the fruit of the Spirit is in verses 5-7 5 But also for this very reason, giving all diligence, add to your faith virtue, to virtue knowledge, 6 to knowledge...

I didn't know if you knew this or not. What amigo said is very popular and I've heard it taught a lot. Just wanted to include you to benefit from my knowledge. Since 1977 when I was born again due to a supernatural experience, I've been given the gift of hearing His voice, and He has been...

I think that's what he's saying, Jim.

Through fake news who can tell if that is true or not? Anyway, enough about politics. I included you to read my teaching on the Blasphemy against the Holy Spirit.

amigo, that is not the blasphemy against the Spirit when the Spirit is on the outside of us and we still have the nature of Satan controlling us. No one, even the Pharisees were ineligible from being saved. Look at Paul. He was probably one of the Jewish Pharisees there damning themselves and...
