Unlike you, I am not going to my family and friends to establish the truth on something simple I can find out on the internet and research for myself. I can look at professional articles on narcissism to know about narcissism. I can read the Bible for myself and understand what it says. I am...

Sorry. BloodBought1953 did not nail anything in regards to this topic. He just made a statement about how we are not reading the context and yet he did not demonstrate this by posting any actual Scriptural context that defends him.

It’s one thing to say this but it is another matter to demonstrate it by backing up your words with actual Scripture.

This is not true. Somebody in another thread also falsely claimed I need to have the last word and yet, I didn’t leave the last word in that thread (ironically). See this thread here: https://www.christianityboard.com/threads/evil.51478/page-6 So again, you falsely accuse me. Groups of...

First, I did not write the Bible. God did. If God tells us to follow after holiness without which no man shall see the Lord, among other verses like it, then that is a truth I have to accept (Whether you, your neighbor, or I like that truth or not). Second, you make a false assumption in your...

Please read Matthew 5:28-30. Why would Jesus warn us about how lusting after a woman with our body being potentially cast into hellfire by doing so if this was all to be done away by having a belief alone in Jesus? If you were to read the sermon on the mount again (Matthew 5-7), there is no...

Jesus said, “…narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it.” (Matthew 7:14). Also, I have changed my view on certain theological things over the years. So I would disagree with views I once held...

When I believe the gospel message and I called upon Jesus for salvation, it was like a light had went on inside of me. I had a love, joy, and peace that I had never known before (back in 1992). I used to be an atheist, but I was changed radically by the Lord Jesus. Clearly I was changed and...

John 1:12 says, “But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name:” Meaning, they are child of God (born again) by even when they first believe on the name of Jesus for salvation. Sons of God are angels. Jesus basically said...

Grace, and peace be unto you. I only hold to the view I do based on what the Bible says. I did not write the Bible. God did. So it’s not personal. I provided verses in this write up to prove my case...

Sorry. No offense. I love you in Christ. But by what you said here, this gives me the impression that you don’t need to worry about all that other filler information stuff in the Bible. You can just isolate and read and believe only those comforting verses from your own slanted point of you...

We are not under the 613 Laws of Moses. We are under the Laws of Christ. This is why you don’t understand Paul. You don‘t know which Law or works he is condemning. Acts 13:39 says you cannot be justified by the Law of Moses. Acts 15 says that Gentile Christians do not have to keep the Law...

Its focused on what they did and not just a belief alone as you claim that is what saves. This is where you get tripped up, my friend. You mention secular worldly sayings as if that somehow proves you are correct. The real way to prove you are right is by quoting the context and supporting...

It is true that Jesus is trying to get these men to believe first. I believe that the “work of God to believe” is God illuminating our understanding of the gospel message so as to either accept it or reject it of our own free will. This belief starts off as a belief alone, but it does not...

Christ only imputes righteousness when we repent or seek forgiveness of our sins with Him and not by some mental ascent alone (While we think we can sin and still be saved on some level). It is only past sin that is forgiven. Christ also cleanses us from all sin if we walk in the light, as...

Agree. Well, 1 John 1:7 does not say that. It says if we walk in the light as he is in the light, the blood of Jesus Christ cleanses us from all sin. Walking in the light = Loving your brother according to the indirect wording in 1 John 2:9-11. So if we love our brother, we are walking in...

Yes. I agree. I believe God can give us power to live that holy life. All praise and glory be unto Him.

The idea I see it is if we fix that car so that it will not be a problem for us. Unfortunately, some think the car is unfixable in this life. But the Bible testifies we can suffer from the flesh and cease from sin (1 Peter 4:1-2). Scripture says we can cleanse ourselves from all filthiness...

The King James Bible says, ”every one that doeth evil hateth the light” (John 3:20). The word “practice” is the wrong translation because generally (not always) those who use the word practice in 1 John 3 from Modern Bibles are doing so as an attempt to justify the idea that a Christian must...

Okay. First off, I never boasted in myself or my own personal works or how I am great (Which is what a narcissist would do). I have stated many times that I am nothing and Christ is everything (and I actually believe that with all my heart). That’s the opposite of self promotion. So you are...
