yes continue in faith and that sure hope -- The Anchor of our souls, amen this faith produces works and produces righteous lives -- but let us never be under the deception our lives and works are worthy of comparison with Him, or that they in any way whatsoever merit His favor. reject all...

false. the law is taken away from us because a dead man cannot be judged by it. Romans 7:1, for the 3rd time, great knowledgeable teacher. sin is the problem, whenceforth the law, so that sin may be made all the more sinful. the law was given for the wicked to be condemned by it; it cannot...

i'm clearly not relying on my works. that's ridiculous given what i have written. my works are dung, useless, worthless compared to the glory of God. i am trusting in God who has atoned for me. the difference here is that i am under no deception that there is any good thing in me, that is, in...

lots. big data; hundreds of millions of observations. MS in math my day-to-day is linear algebra, stats, and linear optimization my entire job is "objectively reveal the truth" =]

the law was given to convict of sin ((Galatians 3 e.g.)), so by taking it away ((through our death in Him)) He takes away the condemnation of our sin vis-a-vis overlooks our sin ((c.f.e. Micah 7:18)) in this way we are set free -- not because now, living in this unredeemed flesh, that flesh is...

i am an analyst at a fortune 500 company

wow me too. i did 11hrs today plus 2.5 hours of commute. i think that is enough but i am probably wrong

ahem, dear super-teacher, Romans 7:1

Therefore He is also able to save to the uttermost those who come to God through Him, since He always lives to make intercession for them. (Hebrews 7:25) free from sin doesn't mean you are faultlessly equal to God. it means God Himself is eternally interceding for you by His own blood...

whatsoever is not of faith, is sin

"forever, in my time of need" ♪♫ in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs

the one who dared not lift his head is not justified by his sinlessness but by his humility, looking to God for mercy rather than boasting in how good she is. it is not by works. it is by grace through faith. it is by the goodness of God - Christ Jesus, the Good Shepherd, who alone is good. His...

please note that they are boasting in their righteous works & great lives, not their faith, belief, or trust in Him as their intercessor. that primarily they are boasting of how 'good' they consider themselves to be, not looking to Him for mercy.

freedom from sin is through death. previously discussed; see Romans 7:1 etc guess why He died this doesn't equal our equality with God. that's Satan's desire - 'to be like the Most High' - who also desires first and foremost that you do not believe in Christ, not His words nor His person, but...

nonsense. utterly untenable wishful thinking. and you boast, calling yourself a teacher? read the context: Further, my brothers and sisters, rejoice in the Lord! It is no trouble for me to write the same things to you again, and it is a safeguard for you. Watch out for those dogs, those...

“Two men went up to the temple to pray, one a Pharisee and the other a tax collector. The Pharisee stood and prayed thus with himself, ‘God, I thank You that I am not like other men — extortioners, unjust, adulterers, or even as this tax collector. I fast twice a week; I give tithes of all...

this is you claiming to be equal to God? and i'm supposed to be so impressed that i also desire to take His throne? ((casts crowns))

as for me i am no teacher no such claim on my lips i am a worm, and not a man surely more brutish than any man, and have not the understanding of a man may i at least be granted to be an earworm to those to whom it is given to hear an instrument

disobedient to what? to this command: And this is His commandment: that we should believe on the name of His Son Jesus Christ (1 John 3:23) the opposite of belief is unbelief. no twisting; it is clear. btw o great and knowledgeable Bible Teacher ((sic)) to whom nothing can be added, the word...

yes i know where it is. guess why i reminded you of it. now ((obvious question)) how does death free one from sin? Or do you not know, brethren (for I speak to those who know the law), that the law has dominion over a man as long as he lives? (Romans 7:1) yes i have read all of Romans not...
