Paul also mentions that there is an “obedience to the faith" (or obedience of faith) at the beginning and end of the book of Romans (See: Romans 1:5, Romans 16:26). Romans 6 says, “Know ye not, that to whom ye yield yourselves servants to obey, his servants ye are to whom ye obey; whether of...

First, you love to throw down the Catholic card all the time on this issue as if it has any merit. It doesn’t. The Catholics believe in the Trinity that does not mean the Trinity is false just because they believe in it. Even a blind squirrel can find a nut. Second, what you done was simply...

Read the end of the chapter. Read the proceeding chapters and the chapters after it, too. It’s not talking about Calvinism. That was not the whole point. But of course you see Calvinism in it because that is what you want to believe (even if it is not defensible by the context).

You are looking at sin from the wrong perspective. Sin does not exist in the future. Sin only exists right now in the present (if a person chooses to sin), or sin can be forgiven by Jesus and put away. The sin would have existed physically in the past but the fact that it was forgiven means...

Then you have not read and or believed 1 Peter 4:1-2, and Galatians 5:24.

The thing is that if you sin, you believe you are still saved. That is the only option in your belief system. Obedience plays no part in your salvation and so then... obedience is optional and following Jesus is optional. Just look at poster Behold pushing his nonsense above. He just proves...

I imagine you think many false things about many. Your position is to get me to think like you in that you can sin and still be saved on some level. Already, you are claiming that it is impossible to keep God's laws. Therefore, your default position is to either live like the devil, or live...

Again.... Sanctification. Read 2 Corinthians 7:1. Believe that verse or don't believe it. The choice is yours. Also, 2 Corinthians 3:3, and or 2 Corinthians 3:6 is not a case for telling you to read the Scriptures from an overly spiritualized way whenever the Bible disagrees with your own...

The laws in our hearts and minds are the fruits of the Spirit (Galatians 5:22-23). It's not the 440 written commands in the New Testament. I already said this to you. This is just a daydream type saying. It does not exist in the Bible. Those are your own thoughts. Galatians 5:22-23 exists...

To all: I mean no offense, I love you all in Jesus Christ, but if a person truly thinks they can willfully do sin or evil and still be saved is seriously deluded (See: 1 Timothy 6:3-4) (James 4:6) (Jude 1:4).

Again, as I said, the Bible teaches Sanctification is progressive (See: 2 Corinthians 7:1). It would be illogical for God to place an impossible burden on them on day one of service. That would not be fair. Believers need to learn to study to show themselves approved unto God first so as to...

Again, I already demonstrated by Scripture to you this truth. Read the parable of the Prodigal Son if you don't believe me. The father says he was DEAD and he is alive AGAIN. This is speaking in spiritual terms. The father also said he was lost, and now he is found. Again, this is speaking...

MacArthur (a Calvinist) also pretends to teach holy living as a requirement for salvation, but he really does not believe that way according to the Bible. The Lordship Salvation doctrine he popularized is a Trojan horse. How so? Well, Kenneth Nally committed suicide as per his influence of...

In Romans 6:14: Paul was referring to the 613 Laws of Moses as a whole or package deal, and he was not referring to the Laws of Christ. Paul said he was under the Law of Christ (1 Corinthians 9:21). Paul said that by keeping the Law of the Spirit of Life in Christ Jesus has made him free from...

The idea is not being a son. The idea is whether they are a dead son or a son that is alive. Dead sons do not get together at family meals, and or family reunions, etcetera. When the Prodigal Son came home to his father seeking forgiveness with him, the father said that his son was DEAD (when...

Romans 9 is not isolated from the rest of the book of Romans. The whole point of Romans 9 was written with the Jew in mind in how they were trying to earn salvation by “Works Alone Salvationism” (without God's grace through Jesus Christ), and how they found favor with God based on their...

Past sins and not future sins. Whenever they offered animal sacrifices as mentioned in Hebrews 10, the blood of goats and bulls never took away sin. They had to keep revisiting the same past sins year after year. This is not the case with Jesus. Future sin or rebellion or planning to sin was...

Nowhere does it say this in Scripture, though. Circumcision even in Abraham's day was a salvation issue for a baby. “And the uncircumcised man child whose flesh of his foreskin is not circumcised, that soul shall be cut off from his people; he hath broken my covenant.” (Genesis 17:14). Those...

I did a deep study of the New Testament Commands and came up with 440 of them. This would be anything God telling us to do directly or not to do (using an action verb). Granted, I want to go back and double check my work to make sure I did not miss anything and to see if everything is in its...

First, it is true that the use of first-person present verbs in the passage (“I am” “I practice” “I want” “I hate” “I do”) sounds like Paul is talking about his present experience. But Paul sometimes uses “I” in a rhetorical sense to describe generic experience rather than his own present...
