    The Way/Theosis/entire sanctification.

    Whatever you care to believe is fine with me. I don't like to post to persons that are insulting. So our conversation ends right here. (the insults were in the previous post by you to me). Heaven is going to be pretty empty. Just you sinless persons will be there I guess. John and Jesus must...

    The Way/Theosis/entire sanctification.

    You wrote the above and then posted two verses from the NT, one from John and one from Jesus. So I guess you're saying that you don't agree with either John or Jesus.... since it's THEM that made the statements, NOT ME. Also, as I've also stated to a JW on this forum... if you think I haven't...

    Friendly Bible Study - participants must agree to Nicene Creed.

    I was looking up commentaries regarding Acts 6 to see if anything new - in ideas - might be mentioned. Didn't really find anything, but a thought did come to mind: Acts 6 clearly states that there was an institution known as the CHURCH and that this church cared for its members. I remember...

    Friendly Bible Study - participants must agree to Nicene Creed.

    Of course the other solution is for persons to be honest. When I joined you asked if I believed in a creed. I answered yes. It's not proper to then post, later on in the thread, that I really don't. or Just handle each problem as it comes up....

    There should be no limit to the participants in a PM. This is a choice of administration. Not sure why this is done....

    Friendly Bible Study - participants must agree to Nicene Creed.

    There are two solutions: 1. This might possibly have been better off being placed in a PM with members being invited in. 2. It's possible to have a pop-up stating that this thread is for ONLY those that believe in one of the creeds and is NOT for general discussion/debate. If you place a rule...

    Why was "the Tree" placed in the center of the garden (orchard)

    So your denomination is Peter and EVERY OTHER DENOMINATION is the pharisees. Thankfully Russell came along to set everyone straight. You have a good day too.

    We had 2 members on another forum that insisted they never sin. I do believe THIS is a sin ! Maybe pride? Anyway, I'm going to have to look up what DOKIMAZETE THE PNEUMOATOI IMPERATIVE means!! :IDK:

    I do agree with @marks that God gives us the strength.... always for what HE wants from us. IF God gives us the power, we will be able to sustain even persecution.. OR, we might flee. In such a dire situation, it will certainly depend on many factors - not least of which the strength we have at...

    PART II Acts 6 Just different thoughts that are coming to mind regarding Acts 6. Seems the Greek Christians were becoming upset with the Jewish Christians. The Greeks felt that their widows were being discriminated against in the food lines. Widows had a difficult time back in Jesus' time...

    What affect is there on The Fall and The Atonement, if Adam was not the first human?

    I don't believe God created the earth and universe in 6 days. I believe God created everything - I don't know how long it took. Day has different meanings in scripture and I don't think it's important as to how long it took for God to create everything. My faith does not depend on this. In...

    What affect is there on The Fall and The Atonement, if Adam was not the first human?

    Sorry Windmill, I've lost track of our discussion. I'd say that influence of the time of writing is found all throughout the entire bible. I do agree with this.

    Do you have to repent if you are "led by the spirit"

    Thanks Marks. But it doesn't help me! God is spirit, God is a spirit. Wait. One is His nature...ontological. One identifies Him. (still seems the same. I could be real thick at times!).

    The Way/Theosis/entire sanctification.

    Well H, I guess we can't agree. We're NEVER free from the "flesh". Because we're never free from what causes us to sin.... our sin nature. When we become born again our sin nature remains but is subdued, put under submission, buried somewhat. But it never totally disappears otherwise, indeed...
